Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this eBook original, numerous practical as well as philosophical issues are explored. In an in-depth, wide-ranging interview appearing in book form for the first time, Stephen Arroyo answers questions about his early years in astrology, how he came to write some of his classic works, and his views on various central issues in astrology’s current practice and potential future development. In another chapter, he provides concise new observations and guidelines that provide more insightful ways of understanding many factors in both individual birth charts and chart comparisons. In the other sections of this book, he discusses what astrology can contribute to psychology, how to understand the Ascendant, and possible explanations of transits’ powerful effects. And importantly, this is the only book currently available that describes and explores his unique theory of “subtones” as an incisive, psychologically revealing method of achieving greater depth in understanding any birth chart. In short, utilizing “subtones” is a method of synthesizing the major chart factors in any person’s chart in a simple, quick way that people at any level of astrological knowledge can easily learn and reliably use.

Download or read book Error and the Growth of Experimental Knowledge written by Deborah G. Mayo and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1996-07-17 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We may learn from our mistakes, but Deborah Mayo argues that, where experimental knowledge is concerned, we haven't begun to learn enough. Error and the Growth of Experimental Knowledge launches a vigorous critique of the subjective Bayesian view of statistical inference, and proposes Mayo's own error-statistical approach as a more robust framework for the epistemology of experiment. Mayo genuinely addresses the needs of researchers who work with statistical analysis, and simultaneously engages the basic philosophical problems of objectivity and rationality. Mayo has long argued for an account of learning from error that goes far beyond detecting logical inconsistencies. In this book, she presents her complete program for how we learn about the world by being "shrewd inquisitors of error, white gloves off." Her tough, practical approach will be important to philosophers, historians, and sociologists of science, and will be welcomed by researchers in the physical, biological, and social sciences whose work depends upon statistical analysis.
Download or read book Writing Illness and Identity in Seventeenth Century Britain written by David Thorley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a survey of personal illness as described in various forms of early modern manuscript life-writing. How did people in the seventeenth century rationalise and record illness? Observing that medical explanations for illness were fewer than may be imagined, the author explores the social and religious frameworks by which illness was more commonly recorded and understood. The story that emerges is of illness written into personal manuscripts in prescriptive rather than original terms. This study uncovers the ways in which illness, so described, contributed to the self-patterning these texts were set up to perform.
Download or read book Bodies complexioned written by Mark S. Dawson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bodily contrasts – from the colour of hair, eyes and skin to the shape of faces and skeletons – allowed the English of the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries to discriminate systematically among themselves and against non-Anglophone groups. Making use of an array of sources, this book examines how early modern English people understood bodily difference. It demonstrates that individuals’ distinctive features were considered innate, even as discrete populations were believed to have characteristics in common, and challenges the idea that the humoral theory of bodily composition was incompatible with visceral inequality or racism. While ‘race’ had not assumed its modern valence, and ‘racial’ ideologies were still to come, such typecasting nonetheless had mundane, lasting consequences. Grounded in humoral physiology, and Christian universalism notwithstanding, bodily prejudices inflected social stratification, domestic politics, sectarian division and international relations.

Download or read book Ill Composed written by Olivia Weisser and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first in-depth study of how gender determined perceptions and experiences of illness in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century England, Olivia Weisser invites readers into the lives and imaginations of ordinary men and women. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including personal diaries, medical texts, and devotional literature, the author enters the sickrooms of a diverse sampling of early modern Britons. The resulting stories of sickness reveal how men and women of the era viewed and managed their health both similarly and differently, as well as the ways prevailing religious practices, medical knowledge, writing conventions, and everyday life created and supported those varying perceptions. A unique cultural history of illness, Weisser’s groundbreaking study bridges the fields of patient history and gender history. Based on the detailed examination of over fifty firsthand accounts, this fascinating volume offers unprecedented insight into what it was like to live, suffer, and inhabit a body more than three centuries ago.
