Book Nutrition   The answer of the soul

Download or read book Nutrition The answer of the soul written by Marisa Lapico and published by Edizioni Il Fiorino Modena. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journey through the human body, the discovery of a fantasy world where the single parts come into harmony with each other and make the most extraordinary musical work ever written before: the symphony of Life. This journey is narrated by Marisa Lapico, author of the book: “Nutrition the response of the soul.” The anatomy of the human body and all of its functions, resulting in a ‘fascinating adventure that gives voice to every little cell, starting from the brain, through the various organs, to reach the intestine. A fantastic itinerary which, in a simple and fairytale language, leads to the “right” knowledge of the human body and the processes that regulate it to achievea single and only goal: the psicho-physical wellness. Through this story, the reader will run through again the same, identical itinerary the food every day performs in our bodies, even before being brought to our mouth. It is easy to understand how the desire to eat comes from a need different from what everyone believes, that is to satisfy the immediate feeling of hunger. Its origins are far deeper and more ancient, related to our inner side. It is our own soul looking for a good “nourishment” to get rid of false models and stereotypes that society imposes in order to find the unity to which it belongs and to which, inevitably, it tends. It is through these pages that the knowledge of the mysterious relationship between the soul and nutrition takes shape. A process that the science is not able to translate yet , with chemical and mathematical formulas, but that nature itself already contains. Have a good trip!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I began this book to articulate my sense of disappointment and alienation from the status I had fought so hard to achieve". A remarkable admission from an alumnus of Harvard Law School who has held tenured professorships in the law schools of Yale and Stanford and has taught in the law schools of Harvard and Chicago. In this personal reflection on the status of higher education, Julius Getman probes the tensions between status and meaning, elitism and egalitarianism, that challenge the academy and academics today. He shows how higher education creates a shared intellectual community among people of varied classes and races - while simultaneously dividing people on the basis of education and status. In the course of his explorations, Getman touches on many of the most current issues in higher education today, including the conflict between teaching and research, challenges to academic freedom, the struggle over multiculturalism, and the impact of minority and feminist activism. Getman presents these issues through relevant, often humorous anecdotes, using his own and others' experiences in coping with the constantly changing academic landscape. Written from a liberal perspective, the book offers another side of the story told in such recent works as Allan Bloom's The Closing of the American Mind and Roger Kimball's Tenured Radicals. It will be important reading for everyone concerned with the future of higher education, as well as for anyone considering an academic career.

Book Spiritual Nutrition

Download or read book Spiritual Nutrition written by Gabriel Cousens, M.D. and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2009-03-03 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we eat, can we feed the soul as well as the body? Can a diet have an impact on spirituality? Spiritual Nutrition empowers readers to develop personal diets that are appropriate to their lifestyles and spiritual practices. Drawing on 14 years of clinical experience and research, Dr. Gabriel Cousens discusses nutritional issues that can help answer these questions, including raw vs. cooked food; high vs. low protein; the concepts of assimilation and fasting; alkaline--acid balance; attitudes about food; nutrients, energy, and structure building. In addition, Cousens shares his new dietary system of "spiritual nutrition" that is based on the relationship that the color of the food has to corresponding colors of the human chakra system, hence, the "rainbow diet." For true nourishment, he strongly promotes the connection of diet to meditation, fellowship, wisdom, and love.

Book Nutrition and Nutritive Soul in Aristotle and Aristotelianism

Download or read book Nutrition and Nutritive Soul in Aristotle and Aristotelianism written by Giouli Korobili and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a detailed study of the concept of the nutritive capacity of the soul and its actual manifestation in living bodies (plants, animals, humans) in Aristotle and Aristotelianism. Aristotle’s innovative analysis of the nutritive faculty has laid the intellectual foundation for the increasing appreciation of nutrition as a prerequisite for the maintenance of life and health that can be observed in the history of Greek thought. According to Aristotle, apart from nutrition, the nutritive part of the soul is also responsible for or interacts with many other bodily functions or mechanisms, such as digestion, growth, reproduction, sleep, and the innate heat. After Aristotle, these concepts were used and further developed by a great number of Peripatetic philosophers, commentators on Aristotle and Arabic thinkers until early modern times. This volume is the first of its kind to provide an in-depth survey of the development of this rather philosophical concept from Aristotle to early modern thinkers. It is of key interest to scholars working on classical, medieval and early modern psycho-physiological accounts of living things, historians and philosophers of science, biologists with interests in the history of science, and, generally, students of the history of philosophy and science.

Book On the Soul

    Book Details:
  • Author : Aristotle
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2018-05-11
  • ISBN : 0191026433
  • Pages : 286 pages

Download or read book On the Soul written by Aristotle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '. . . the more honourable animals have been allotted a more honourable soul. . . ' What is the nature of the soul? It is this question that Aristotle sought to answer in De Anima (On the Soul). In doing so he offers a psychological theory that encompasses not only human beings but all living beings. Its basic thesis, that the soul is the form of an organic body, sets it in sharp contrast with both Pre-Socratic physicalism and Platonic dualism. On the Soul contains Aristotle's definition of the soul, and his explanations of nutrition, perception, cognition, and animal self-motion. The general theory in De Anima is augmented in the shorter works of Parva Naturalia, which deal with perception, memory and recollection, sleep and dreams, longevity, life-cycles, and psycho-physiology. This new translation brings together all of Aristotle's extant and complementary psychological works, and adds as a supplement ancient testimony concerning his lost writings dealing with the soul. The introduction by Fred D. Miller, Jr. explains the central place of the soul in Aristotle's natural science, the unifying themes of his psychological theory, and his continuing relevance for modern philosophy and psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade there has been a remarkable flowering of interest in food and nutrition, both within the popular media and in academia. Scholars are increasingly using foodways, food systems and eating habits as a new unit of analysis within their own disciplines, and students are rushing into classes and formal degree programs focused on food. Introduced by the editor and including original articles by over thirty leading food scholars from around the world, the Routledge International Handbook of Food Studies offers students, scholars and all those interested in food-related research a one-stop, easy-to-use reference guide. Each article includes a brief history of food research within a discipline or on a particular topic, a discussion of research methodologies and ideological or theoretical positions, resources for research, including archives, grants and fellowship opportunities, as well as suggestions for further study. Each entry also explains the logistics of succeeding as a student and professional in food studies. This clear, direct Handbook will appeal to those hoping to start a career in academic food studies as well as those hoping to shift their research to a food-related project. Strongly interdisciplinary, this work will be of interest to students and scholars throughout the social sciences and humanities.

Book Andrea Cesalpino s    De Plantis Libri XVI     1583  and the Transformation of Medical Botany in the 16th Century

Download or read book Andrea Cesalpino s De Plantis Libri XVI 1583 and the Transformation of Medical Botany in the 16th Century written by Quentin Hiernaux and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1583 the Italian botanist and physician Andrea Cesalpino (1524–1603) published De Plantis Libri XVI, made of 16 books (libri), considered to be the first treatise where botany is treated independently from medicine. In so doing, he broke with a long tradition inherited in Western science from Antiquity and perpetuated during the Middle Age through the early Renaissance. De Plantis lays the foundations of scientific systematics through a new focus on plant morphology and natural similarities and became a milestone in the history of Western botany. It is a precious testimony to the evolution of botanical and physiological knowledge in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance and illustrates the role of Aristotelian philosophy in 16th-century knowledge. The volume includes an introductory essay about Cesalpino's philosophy and botany, a critical edition of the Latin text, a translation, a commentary, and indexes. It should interest scholars in Renaissance studies, historians, and philosophers of science and medicine, as well as botanists and plant scientists curious about the history of plant sciences.
