Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manhood of Humanity: The Science and Art of Human Engineering was written by the famous Polish-American philosopher and scientist, Alfred Korzybski. Best known for his work developing the theory of "general semantics," Korzybski dedicated his life to mapping out the operations performed by the human brain. In this book, Korzybski presents an engaging and thought provoking look at his philosophical views of humanity and the human condition. Korzybski passed away before the publication of this edition of the book so the editor decided to dedicate the first chapter to him, and provides a biography of the author. The book then delves into Korzybski's philosophy, discussing the root of humanity and how it is fostered in children at a very young age. Korzybski explores how wealth, capitalism, elements of power, and the ideas of "survival of the fittest" affect humanity as we know it. The book also contains multiple appendices that include further information on the topics explored within the text for readers to enjoy at their leisure. Korzybski's primary goal with the text is to imbue readers with a passion for the topic, to enlighten them and provoke them to action-to bring back humanity as we knew it prior to greed and feelings of inherent superiority. Alfred Korzybski's book Manhood of Humanity: The Science and Art of Human Engineering is a wonderful exploration of what it means to be human. This is an entertaining and enlightening book that represents that deepest thoughts and values of the author. Korzybski's plea to the reader who enjoys this text is to enact change in society when possible-to help their fellow man return to a kinder and gentler state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A passage from the book... The problem has not been approached from the point of view of any private doctrine or creed, but from a mathematical, an engineering, point of view, which is impersonal and passionless. It is obvious that to be able to speak about the great affairs of Man, his spiritual, moral, physical, economic, social or political status, it must first be ascertained what Man is-what is his real nature and what are the basic laws of his nature. If we succeed in finding the laws of human nature, all the rest will be a comparatively easy task-the ethical, social, economic and political status of Man should be in accord with the laws of his nature; then civilization will be a human civilization-a permanent and peaceful one-not before.It is useless to argue if electricity be "natural" or "supernatural," of "material" or of "spiritual" origin. As a matter of fact we do not ask these questions in studying electricity; we endeavor to find out the natural laws governing it and in handling live wires we do not argue or speculate about them-we [pg xi] use rubber gloves, etc. It will be the same with Man and the great affairs of Man-we have, first of all, to know what Man is.

Book excerpt: From NFL player turned film and TV star Terry Crews comes a wise and warmhearted memoir chronicling his lifelong quest to become a good man, loving husband, and responsible father. What does it mean to be a man? Terry Crews, TV’s iconic “Old Spice Guy” and co-star of the hit Golden Globe Award–winning series Brooklyn Nine-Nine, has spent decades seeking the answer to that question. In Manhood, he shares what he’s learned, telling the amazing story of his rise to fame and offering straight-talking advice for men and the women who love them. A self-described “super-driven superstar alpha male,” Terry Crews embodies the manly ideal for millions worldwide. But as he looks back on his difficult childhood and shares hard-learned lessons from the many humbling experiences he endured to get where he is today, he shows how his own conception of manhood is constantly evolving. Crews offers up a lively, clear-eyed account of the ups and downs of his twenty-five-year marriage, revealing the relationship secrets that have kept it going—and the one dark secret that nearly tore it apart. Along the way, he shares his evolving appreciation for looking good, staying fit, and getting it done for the people you love. Being a man is about more than keeping your core strong. It’s about keeping your core values stronger. With insightful observations on spirituality, work, and family, Terry Crews shows men how to face their inner demons, seek forgiveness from those they’ve wronged, and tear down the walls that prevent them from forging meaningful relationships with others. From the NFL gridiron to the Hollywood backlot, Terry Crews has survived it all with his sense of humor—and his marriage—intact. In Manhood he shows men everywhere that real strength is not measured in muscle mass—unless that muscle is the heart.

Book excerpt: “For a while he trampled with impunityn laws human and divine but, as he wasbsessed with the delusion that two and two makes five, he fell, at last a victim to the relentless rulesf humble Arithmetic. “Remember, stranger, Arithmetic is the firstf the sciences and the motherf safety.” Brandeis. It is the aimf this little book to point the way to a new science and art—the science and artf Human Engineering. By Human Engineering I mean the science and artf directing the energies and capacitiesf human beings to the advancementf human weal. It need not be argued in these times that the establishmentf such a science—the sciencef human welfare—is an undertakingf immeasurable importance. None can fail to see that its importance is supreme. It is evident that, if such a science is to be established it must be foundedn ascertained facts—it must accord with what is characteristicf Man—it must be based upon a just conceptionf what Man ] is—upon a right understandingf Man's place in the schemef Nature. None need be told how indispensable it is to have true ideas—just concepts—correct notions—of the things with which we humans have to deal; everyone knows for example, that to mistake solids for surfacesr lines would wreck the science and artf geometry; anyone knows that to confuse fractions with whole numbers would wreck the science and artf arithmetic; everyone knows that to mistake vice for virtue would destroy the foundationf ethics; everyone knows that to mistake a desert mirage for a lakef fresh water does but lure the fainting traveler to dire disappointmentr death. Now, it is perfectly clear thatf all the things with which human beings have to deal, the most important by far is Man himself—humankind—men, women and children. It follows that for us human beings nothing else can be quite so important as a clear, true, just, scientific conceptf Man—a right understandingf what we as human beings really are. For it requires no great wisdom, it needsnly a little reflection, to see that, if we humans radically misconceive the naturef man—if we regard man as being something which he is not, whether it be something higher than manr lower—we thereby commit an error so fundamental and far reaching as to produce ] every mannerf confusion and disaster in individual life, in community life and in the lifef the race.

Download or read book Man Enough written by Justin Baldoni and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A GRIPPING, FEARLESS EXPLORATION OF MASCULINITY The effects of traditionally defined masculinity have become one of the most prevalent social issues of our time. In this engaging and provocative new book, beloved actor, director, and social activist Justin Baldoni reflects on his own struggles with masculinity. With insight and honesty, he explores a range of difficult, sometimes uncomfortable topics including strength and vulnerability, relationships and marriage, body image, sex and sexuality, racial justice, gender equality, and fatherhood. Writing from experience, Justin invites us to move beyond the scripts we’ve learned since childhood and the roles we are expected to play. He challenges men to be brave enough to be vulnerable, to be strong enough to be sensitive, to be confident enough to listen. Encouraging men to dig deep within themselves, Justin helps us reimagine what it means to be man enough and in the process what it means to be human.
