Book excerpt: There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. (Proverbs 14:12) Mankind's behavior is driven by a system of needs. Needs or potential needs are the product of one's spiritual, social, and/or political environments. These environments contribute to an individual's perception of his/her world, and they govern his/her behaviors. Outcomes from behavior may be desired or undesired, positive or negative, finite or eternal. The individual, daring enough to self-examine, will, at some point in life, ask him/herself, "What manner of person ought I to be...'" About the Author James W.

Download or read book Food Synergy written by Elaine Magee and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2008-03-04 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past few years, scientists have made dramatic new breakthroughs in harnessing the healing power of foods. In addition to discovering which "superfoods" offer maximum health benefits, they now know that some nutrients pack a special healing wallop when eaten together rather than alone. In more than 25 books and her nationally syndicated newspaper column "The Recipe Doctor," popular food writer Elaine Magee has demonstrated a special gift for translating the science behind nutrition into easy-to-understand advice. Here, whether she is highlighting the latest news on phytochemicals or explaining why new lab studies suggest that tomatoes and broccoli work together to reduce prostate growth better than either vegetable alone, she not only details the best foods to eat and why—but also shows how to utilize the most nutritious food combinations and turn them into tasty everyday meals the whole family will enjoy. The book features over 40 delicious recipes, a 2-week menu plan for weight loss, and all the information anyone needs to use food synergy to lower the risk of high blood pressure, cancer, diabetes, and stroke the natural, drug-free way.
Download or read book Synergy Development in Renewables Assisted Multi carrier Systems written by Majid Amidpour and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the different aspects of energy in human life especially expressing the advanced technologies in renewable energy resources. Due to the environmental pollution caused by fossil fuels and the non-permanent nature of these resources, the move towards the use of renewable energy has accelerated. In recent years, many attempts have been made to improve energy systems' performance by using multi-generation units, and these set-ups have been analyzed from the perspective of energy, exergy, economics, and environmental indicators. The book's primary goal is the effort to introduce new methods for assessing and upgrading the synergy. Therefore it examines sustainable practices such as water-energy-food nexus in poly-generation units, novel desalination systems, and smart greenhouses. One of the significant issues in these energy systems is the storage methods; for instance, carbon capture to reduce environmental pollution and the hydrogen store for the utilization in supplementary fuel. Also, robust optimization, uncertainty and risk-aware probabilistic analysis, energy management, and power supply of sensitive places such as oil rig platforms by renewables are examined.
Download or read book Helix Network Theory written by Runyuan Gan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-08 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the philosophy of Systems Science and the law of evolution theory, the book, by applying the methods of structural functionalism, divides the modern social system into human-culture, economy, polity, science, law, education and other sub-systems through the systematic synthesis of disciplines such as economics, sociology, management, politics, culture theories, history and philosophy, and explores the connection between these sub-systems and their intricate relation with social progress, thus depicting the historical trajectory of the long-term evolution of human social system. Starting from the actual production and operation of the firms, the author systematically analyses the organic connections and sophisticated operating process of social reproduction in modern society from micro, meso and macro, revealing the dynamic structure and evolutionary laws of the social economic system. This book reveals the fractal features such as self-similarity, hierarchy, and recursiveness in the general structure of the firm system, the sector system and the national economic system, thereby integrating micro-, meso- and macro-economics into a unified theoretical framework. This integration is interdisciplinary, and has gone beyond the economics. It can be regarded as the fourth grand synthesis in the history of economics after John Stuart Mill (1806-1873), Alfred Marshall (1842-1924) and Samuelson (1915-2009).

Download or read book Seeds of Power written by Amalia Leguizamón and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996 Argentina adopted genetically modified (GM) soybeans as a central part of its national development strategy. Today, Argentina is the third largest global grower and exporter of GM crops. Its soybeans—which have been modified to tolerate being sprayed with herbicides—now cover half of the country's arable land and represent a third of its total exports. While soy has brought about modernization and economic growth, it has also created tremendous social and ecological harm: rural displacement, concentration of landownership, food insecurity, deforestation, violence, and the negative health effects of toxic agrochemical exposure. In Seeds of Power Amalia Leguizamón explores why Argentines largely support GM soy despite the widespread damage it creates. She reveals how agribusiness, the state, and their allies in the media and sciences deploy narratives of economic redistribution, scientific expertise, and national identity as a way to elicit compliance among the country’s most vulnerable rural residents. In this way, Leguizamón demonstrates that GM soy operates as a tool of power to obtain consent, to legitimate injustice, and to quell potential dissent in the face of environmental and social violence.

Download or read book The Volks Garten written by Don Elwood and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mayan God Kings had been blessing the crops of Maya with Reiki prayers when the white brothers from Europe arrived. It was decided to keep the details of Reiki Prayers a secret from the white brothers until the Age of Pisces was over. They etched secrets of the Reiki Prayer process, onto coded glyphs on an animal skin called, the Dresden Codex. See the illustration from the Dresden Codex, on the back cover, of a Mayan God King praying or their crops. They predicted that the secrets would again be deciphered by December 12, 2012. Man is the only triune being in the animal kingdom. He consists of a conscious self (the only self that communicates in languages), a subconscious self, which communicates by emotions, and, a HIGH SELF (or the Father above.) All three are involved in a Reiki + MANNA prayer task. The conscious self must first describe the prayer, in terms the subconscious self relates to. He then imagines he is standing in water. (MANNA is interpreted by the subconscious self, as a prayer substance (i.e. like WATER.) that can flow up thru a tube.) The conscious self notifies his subconscious self, to: accumulate manna through breathing cycles , send it up the Aka cord, (i.e. in the back), up to the HIGH SELF above, and ask the HIGH SELF to accumulate MANNA, MANNA, LOA, and request God to rain down the prayer results, to the earth below. The lower right, symbolizes a man reincarnated during the Age of Aquarius , standing in water with his back to us, (i.e. symbolizing the AKA cord up his back), using both HANDS, (for praying) to obtain heavenly responses (i.e. stars, in the water from the jug), as it flows down to the earth below. According to the book, Knocking At The Gate, it is the Age when: Man can ascend into Heaven WHILE STILL ALIVE, as Jesus suggested. Extra terrestrials will help evacuate people to other planets before God makes necessary changes to the earth, and after the Earth changes have been made, return them. And, if you are still here, do as the Christian Bible says: RUN, dont walk, to the mountains, and grow a garden in your back yard.
