Download or read book Multidisciplinary Approaches to the Study of Stone Age Weaponry written by Radu Iovita and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-28 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this volume is to showcase the contemporary state of research on recognizing and evaluating the performance of stone age weapons from a variety of viewpoints, including investigating their cognitive and evolutionary significance. New archaeological finds and experimental studies have helped to bring this subject back to the forefront of human origins research. In the last few years, investigations have expanded beyond examining the tools themselves to include studies of damage caused by projectile weapons on animal and hominin bones and skeletal asymmetries in ancient hominin populations. Only recently has there been a growing interest in controlled and replicative experiments. Through this book readers will be updated in the state of knowledge through a multidisciplinary scientific reconstruction of prehistoric weapon use and its implications. Contributions from expert authors are organized into three themed parts: recognizing weapon use (experimental and archaeological studies of impact traces), performance of weapon systems (factors influencing penetration depth etc.), and behavioral and evolutionary ramifications (cognitive and ecological effects of using different weapons).
Download or read book Space Age Science and Stone Age Politics written by John Scales Avery and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-02-07 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space-age science and stone-age politics make an extraordinarily dangerous mixture. It seems probable that in the future, the rapidity of scientificand technological change will produce ethical dilemmas and social tensions even more acute than those we experience today. It is likely that the fate of our species (and the fate of the biosphere) will be made precarious by the astonishing speed of scientific and technological change unless this progress is matched by the achievement of far greater ethical and political maturity than we have yet attained.
Download or read book The Psychic World of Peter Hurkos written by Norma Lee Browning and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-08 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Description: When the Dutch psychic Peter Hurkos approached Norma Lee Browning to write his story, her reply was blunt: "You know better than to ask me … I'm the one who exposes people like you." Norma Lee Browning is a professional skeptic -- a journalist with a reputation for exposing frauds and charlatans. Hurkos persisted. The result is this incredible book in which Browning, skeptic, proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Peter Hurkos is a man with phenomenal psychic powers -- a man who can conjure up the past, envision the future and describe people and places he has never seen. Hurkos has also participated in missing persons and murder investigations across the United States. To fully describe a man like Peter Hurkos is not possible. Ms. Browning deals in facts -- in names and places and dates -- and these facts speak for themselves. Author's Bio: A well-known columnist and reporter, Norma Lee Browning has written numerous books including the fascinating FACELIFTS: Everything You Always Wanted to Know. She lives in Palm Springs, California.

World-famous folk singer Leila Sand emerged from the sixties and seventies with addictions to drugs and booze. Leila's latest addiction is to a younger man who leaves her sexually ecstatic but emotionally bereft. The orgasmic frenzies trump the betrayals, so she keeps coming back for more. Eventually, Leila frees herself by learning the rules of love, the Twelve Steps, and the Key to Serenity in an odyssey that takes her from AA meetings to dens of sin, parties with "names" worth dropping, and erotic gondola rides.
Download or read book Ritual Performance and the Senses written by Michael Bull and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-18 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ritual has long been a central concept in anthropological theories of religious transmission. Ritual, Performance and the Senses offers a new understanding of how ritual enables religious representations – ideas, beliefs, values – to be shared among participants. Focusing on the body and the experiential nature of ritual, the book brings together insights from three distinct areas of study: cognitive/neuroanthropology, performance studies and the anthropology of the senses. Eight chapters by scholars from each of these sub-disciplines investigate different aspects of embodied religious practice, ranging from philosophical discussions of belief to explorations of the biological processes taking place in the brain itself. Case studies range from miracles and visionary activity in Catholic Malta to meditative practices in theatrical performance and include three pilgrimage sites: the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, the festival of Ramlila in Ramnagar, India and the mountain shrine of the Lord of the Shiny Snow in Andean Peru.Understanding ritual allows us to understand processes at the very centre of human social life and humanity itself, making this an invaluable text for students and scholars in anthropology, cognitive science, performance studies and religious studies.
Download or read book Stone Age Present written by William Allman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1995-11-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wandered why men don't ask for directions? Why we react with anger to infidelity? Why we love music and art? Why war and racism still thrive in our most sophisticated cultures? In this fascinating synthesis of the disciplines of anthropology, psychology, linguistics, philosophy, and biology, William Allman shows us how our minds have evolved in response to challenges faced by our prehistoric ancestors, and reveals how our brains continue to harbor that legacy in the present day. Scientists speculate that many of the problems of modern life -- from obesity to war -- arise because our "Stone Age mind" hasn't caught up with our technologically sophisticated world. But Allman also reveals how morality, rather than being the result of arbitrary convention, is deeply rooted in our need to cooperate, which has been essential to the survival of our species through its evolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grandma, I Lost the Pass Code to My Brain (and God is not helping me)! These are the exact words my six year old granddaughter said to me at the end of a really bad day. She was feeling disconnected from who she was and what she was capable of achieving at that moment in her life. She had lost her sense of ease within herself. Fortunately, through my experience teaching in public schools for 30 years, taking a wide variety of classes, and starting a business focusing on fun ways to learn about yourself I knew what to say to her. My granddaughter is not alone. Many of us can feel lost or overwhelmed by daily events. It is time to share what Ive learned with other caretakers of todays children: parents, teachers, and leaders. In this book, the Nine Keys for Better Tomorrows help address issues that keep children and adults from reaching their potential, achieving their purpose, and finding fulfillment in life. You will learn how to: *Raise your listening, thought, emotion and energy INTELLIGENCES. *Build self esteem, stop invalidation, and know you matter. *Uncover your (and your childrens) self preferences through the science of numbers using birth dates and given names at birth. *Find out about the seasons of life through the Nine Year Cycle theory. *Learn from natural teachers: animals, fairy tales, cultural characters, color, and planets- so you, too, can build better tomorrows.
