Download or read book Horizon Work written by Adriana Petryna and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way of thinking about the climate crisis as an exercise in delimiting knowable, and habitable, worlds As carbon dioxide emissions continue to rise, Earth’s fragile ecosystems are growing increasingly unstable and unpredictable. Horizon Work explores how climate change is disrupting our fundamental ability to project how the environment will act over time, and how these rapidly faltering predictions are colliding with the dangerous new realities of emergency response. Anthropologist Adriana Petryna examines the climate crisis through the lens of “horizoning,” a mode of reckoning that considers unnatural disasters against a horizon of expectation in which people and societies can act. She talks to wildfire scientists who, amid chaotic fire seasons and shifting fire behaviors, are revising predictive models calibrated to conditions that no longer exist. Petryna tells the stories of wildland firefighters who could once rely on memory of previous fires to gauge the behaviors of the next. Trust in patterns has become an occupational hazard. Sometimes, the very concept of projection becomes untenable. Yet if all we see is doom, we will overlook something crucial about the scientific and ethical labor needed to hold back climate chaos. Here is where the work of horizoning begins. From experiments probing our planetary points of no return to disaster ecologies where the stark realities of climate change are being confronted, Horizon Work reveals how this new way of thinking has the power to reverse harmful legacies while turning voids where projection falters into spaces of collective action and recoverable futures.

She stopped at nothing to retrieve her daughter from the past. Now it’s clear sending Horizon back is the only way to repair the rift, but her mother won’t let her go. The underground artifact where they accidentally created the rift is crumbling. No one will survive unless they can escape the mountain falling down around them, but time is shuddering and echoing around them, and the way out isn’t clear. To make things worse, thanks to the unpredictability of time rifts, the crew now faces not just one mortal enemy—there are two Ravennes working against them. Will Z-Crew escape Ravenne’s clutches and set time right again, or will Duff finally have to bend to his enemy’s will? Find out in the final installment of the Relic Trilogy!

Download or read book From Genesis to Revelation written by Stuart Tillman and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2022-12-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Genesis to Revelation: A Story You Find Yourself In is a book about the journey of the soul and how it's reflected in the esoteric Bible. The book is written as an allegory by animating characters found in the creation and together serve as our hosts during this earthly sojourn. It’s through the unbiased observations made by these characters that we come to better understand ourselves and the purpose of this incarnation. The quality of our relationship with the creation and with other human’s is solely dependent upon the quality of the relationship that we have with our inner man. Becoming aware of awareness is the beginning of this understanding and is perfected through the process of internal observation. The book recognizes that humanity is stressing the creations integrity and its ability to maintain a proper ecosystem in support of our human experience. In response, the creation determines that something must be done, concluding that acquiring a thorough understanding the nature of man’s inner and collective psyche as the first order of business. In this process of discovery, the creation explores the contrasts between the practices of religion and the pursuits of spirituality, while endeavoring to correlate its findings with the symbolisms found in the Bible. What they discover is a revelatory paradox, as their findings suggest that these human practices and pursuits do not align with the spiritual meaning hidden in these sacred texts. The journey of humanity is a story you find yourself in and the only way forward is for each of us to come into a reconciliation with our dual natures. I hope this book can help in that cause as the answers are found within, from Genesis to Revelation.
Download or read book Disclosing Horizons written by Nicholas Temple and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the influence of perspective on architecture, highlighting how critical historical changes in the representation and perception of space continue to inform the way architects design. Since its earliest developments, perspective was conceived as an exemplary form of representation that served as an ideal model of how everyday existence could be measured and ultimately judged. Temple argues that underlying the symbolic and epistemological meanings of perspective there prevails a deeply embedded redemptive view of the world that is deemed perfectible. Temple explores this idea through a genealogical investigation of the cultural and philosophical contexts of perspective throughout history, highlighting how these developments influenced architectural thought. This broad historical enquiry is accompanied by a series of case-studies of modern or contemporary buildings, each demonstrating a particular affinity with the accompanying historical model of perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A member of Light Attack Squadron 212 s "Rampant Raiders," A-4 pilot Stephen R. Gray writes about his experiences flying combat sorties from the deck of an aircraft carrier during one of the most intense periods of aerial combat in U.S. history. From the perspective of a junior naval aviator, Gray reveals the lessons he learned first at the Naval Aviation Training Command and then in actual combat flying the Skyhawk from USS Bon Homme Richard in Vietnam. Training strengthens commitment, Gray points out, allowing ordinary men like him to fly dangerous missions. Readers will discover how circumstances created heroe--heroes who managed to overcome their personal fears for a greater cause--and how, despite the lack of public support for the war, the men remained committed to one another. The book addresses how men react to service during contentious political times to offer lessons relevant today.

Book excerpt: Back to the Rough Ground is a philosophical investigation of practical knowledge, with major import for professional practice and the ethical life in modern society. Its purpose is to clarify the kind of knowledge that informs good practice in a range of disciplines such as education, psychotherapy, medicine, management, and law. Through reflection on key modern thinkers who have revived cardinal insights of Aristotle, and a sustained engagement with the Philosopher himself, it presents a radical challenge to the scientistic assumptions that have dominated how these professional domains have been conceived, practiced, and institutionalized.
