Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With authority granted by the work we have been carrying on as well as by live testimonials of successful experiments, we are able to affirm that the aesthetic pleasure experienced by the individual, as he realizes that he possesses inner resources which exceed all that the he may have imagined about a better life, is much more intense than the one derived from the joys of material life, including short-lived personal pleasures and satisfactions. It is understood that primarily these congnitions should be of interest to the young, since they are still undergoing the process of mental, psychological and spiritual formation. However, parents, guardians, and teachers should contribute with their knowledge, pointing out the advantages of conducting this authentic inner investigation meant to further man’s self-improvement and to bring about the revival of this self-confidence. Logosophy is a creative science and the holder of concrete cognitions for one’s life, all of which lead to individual achievements when consciously applied to one’s ownpsychology. In short, we have opened the doors to an unprecedented and fecund investigation while displaying the results obtained through the study and practice of the cognitions that make up this new and long-awaited science for man’s immediate, positive, integral, and conscious self-improvement. From all that has been expressed, one will surely note the importance of the logosophical conception in furthering the re-evaluation of human conditions and in achieving thorough self-knowledge.

Book excerpt: In an amusing and colorful way, the author narrates his childhood memories of Egypt; the warm family gatherings, the dishes cooked by his mother with their aromatic smells, and the sounds and sights of the Egyptian lifestyle at the time. The author then takes us on his harrowing exodus from Egypt for Brazil. He shares his initial challenges in this unknown land and talks about his life in Rio de Janeiro, then in Canada. He finally ends his journey in Boston, Massachusetts, when he is given a permanent transfer to his company's headquarters there. He discusses his move up the demanding management staircase, one step at a time, honing his leadership skills at every level. He finally arrives at the top of corporate America, where he deals face to face with his Board of Directors, the investment bankers, and Wall Street analysts. This boy from Alexandria invites us into his innermost thoughts and feelings, showing how he was able to develop a new concept of life, its meaning and its purpose thanks to Logosophy, the science of self-knowledge. Finally, he offers us his conclusions, after twenty-five years of investigation, on "The Origins of the Ancient Egyptian Civilization" and "Who Were the Jews."

This book was released on 1991 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The deficiencies are, in and by themselves, mental beasts that are not satisfied by only devouring the useful thoughts and projects, which each individual keeps or cultivates in his mental field. Their eagerness to destroy – e.g. pessimism, obstinacy, carelessness, irritability, vehemence, etc. – induces them to attack the noblest feelings, and even attempt against the very life of their owner. It is, therefore, imperative to eliminate these thoughts before they destroy us.”
Download or read book Serious Leisure and Individuality written by Elie Cohen-Gewerc and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be an individual and how can an individual exist within society? Serious Leisure and Individuality examines the circumstances in the modern world that make for individual distinctiveness, and the role of these conditions in personal and social life. "The individual," said Friedrich Nietzsche, "has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." Elie Cohen-Gewerc and Robert Stebbins explore the road to finding that privilege. They approach individuality by examining its relationship to freedom and being free, and by defining and elaborating on the concept of leisure space. They also look at individuality's place in community, citizenship, and globalization. The complex relationship between individuality and alienation is put under the microscope to highlight the negative side of being distinctive, which has adverse consequences for the individual and society. There are many studies on the modern individual that centre almost entirely on the person facing his local community and broader society. What is missing in the literature - and what Serious Leisure and Individuality provides - is a broad, comprehensive examination of individuality, particularly as it is rooted in leisure and the leisure-like areas of work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leisure education plays a central role in both the field of leisure studies and the pursuit of leisure itself. Everywhere in the modern world the most effective use of free time for individuals comes with knowing about the many leisure activities available to them and the rewards and costs that accompany their interest in each. It is through leisure education in one form or another that they gain such knowledge. Yet, as important as this educational process is, its study is only beginning to take off in non-Western societies where, however, it cannot be assumed to be the same as in the West. This book contains several comparisons of Western and non-Western practices in leisure education. Knowing these practices contributes ultimately to a deep understanding of the nature of the huge variety of leisure activities enjoyed across the planet and of the reasons why people go in for the ones they do. This book was based on a special issue published in the World Leisure Journal.

Download or read book The Evolving Landscape of Ethical Digital Technology written by Simon Rogerson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-09-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world that is awash in ubiquitous technology, even the least tech-savvy know that we must take care how that technology affects individuals and society. That governments and organizations around the world now focus on these issues, that universities and research institutes in many different languages dedicate significant resources to study the issues, and that international professional organizations have adopted standards and directed resources toward ethical issues in technology is in no small part the result of the work of Simon Rogerson. – Chuck Huff, Professor of Social Psychology at Saint Olaf College, Northfield, Minnesota In 1995, Apple launched its first WWW server, Quick Time On-line. It was the year Microsoft released Internet Explorer and sold 7 million copies of Windows 95 in just 2 months. In March 1995, the author Simon Rogerson opened the first ETHICOMP conference with these words: We live in a turbulent society where there is social, political, economic and technological turbulence ... it is causing a vast amount of restructuring within all these organisations which impacts on individuals, which impacts on the way departments are set up, organisational hierarchies, job content, span of control, social interaction and so on and so forth. ... Information is very much the fuel of modern technological change. Almost anything now can be represented by the technology and transported to somewhere else. It's a situation where the more information a computer can process, the more of the world it can actually turn into information. That may well be very exciting, but it is also very concerning. That could be describing today. More than 25 years later, these issues are still at the forefront of how ethical digital technology can be developed and utilised. This book is an anthology of the author’s work over the past 25 years of pioneering research in digital ethics. It is structured into five themes: Journey, Process, Product, Future and Education. Each theme commences with an introductory explanation of the papers, their relevance and their interrelationship. The anthology finishes with a concluding chapter which summarises the key messages and suggests what might happen in the future. Included in this chapter are insights from some younger leading academics who are part of the community charged with ensuring that ethical digital technology is realised.
