Book The Genesis Revealed   Compendium of the writings of Don Guido Bortoluzzi

Download or read book The Genesis Revealed Compendium of the writings of Don Guido Bortoluzzi written by Renza Giacobbi and published by Associazione Don Guido Bortoluzzi. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don Guido Bortoluzzi was born in Puos d’Alpago, in the province of Belluno, Italy, in 1907, and attended the seminary with Albino Luciani (the future Pope John Paul I). In those years Don Giovanni Calabria (later de­clared a Saint) passed by at the seminary of Feltre to visit the rector, and when he noticed Guido he prophesied that the boy, in his old age, would write a very important book about the Genesis and its darkest points. The Peruvian Servant of God, Father Mateo Crawley, predicted the same thing to him, and predicted to Albino Luciani that he would attain the highest levels of responsibility in the Church. Don Guido also “witnessed” the disaster of the Vajont dam, 18 years in advance. Although he warned the local people, no one believed him. The mediated creation is one of the key revelations that Don Guido received from God, regarding the origin of man. God implanted the first human cell (from which Adam would be born) in a pre-human female ancestor. She had basically acted as an incubator, to prevent that genes of her species passed into the new creature. For the creation of the woman, God created and implanted a human ovum in the same female ancestor, fertilized by Adam’s semen while he was sleeping. Adam was to be unaware, so as not to replicate the process. This version is a compendium from “Biblical Genesis”, same author.

Book Biblical Genesis   A new light on the origins of man and the original sin

Download or read book Biblical Genesis A new light on the origins of man and the original sin written by Don Guido Bortoluzzi and published by Associazione Don Guido Bortoluzzi. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fr. Guido Bortoluzzi was born in 1907 and died in 1991 in the province of Belluno (N.E. Italy). Between 1968 and 1974 he received from the Lord eight revelations which concerned the origins of the Earth and of Man. He was a man without malice, and because of this it was granted him to see episodes that would normally make one feel awkward, if not embarrassed, but thanks to Fr. Guido's candour, they are related without trace of morbidity. This inner attitude of Fr. Guido permitted the Lord to deal with difficult subjects frankly and without circumlocutions. As is the way with the Lord, He chose as His witness a candid, unprejudiced soul, whose heart trusted in God's Love. The contrast between the simplicity of the 'means' and the greatness of the message makes it evident that the source of the contents cannot be but from God. The Lord chose neither a theologian, nor a scientist, because - as it is written in the Gospel - it is not possible to put new wine in old wineskins (i.e. in someone who is already self-sufficient and content with his own theories) without both of them being lost.

Book Dynamic Aspects of Dental Pulp

Download or read book Dynamic Aspects of Dental Pulp written by Reizo Inoki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a circumspective overview and update of the present existing knowledge of the biology, chemistry and pathophysiology of the dental pulp. It details numerous observations of a group of highly specialized investigators who have united in the common purpose of presenting their observations for the benefit of clinicians, teachers, researchers and students. Fortunately, the dental literature presents abundant research findings about pulp biology and the pulp's responses to various stimuli. This abundance has resulted in an increased interest and expansion of research on this subject. For example, publications abound on the response of pulp tissue to various medications and to a variety of types of dental materials which may be placed near to or at some distance from the pulp through the medium of dentine. One of the reasons the pulp is of such interest is that it not only provides the vitality to the teeth but also produces the dentine - both the primary and secondary, as well as reparative. The latter-type dentine is a result of the pulp's functions in response to disease as the former dentine is in response to health. As an example, some investigators have reported the effects of cutting of dentine and the placement of restorations in dentine which in turn reflect changes on the pulp tissue. These reports have raised a number of questions, which in turn have created a need for answers.

Download or read book The IGF System written by Charles T. Roberts and published by Firefly Books. This book was released on 1999-06 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been over 40 years since the original report by Salmon and Daughaday demon strating that the ability of GH to stimulate sulfation of cartilage was mediated by a "sulfation factor. " In the ensuing decades, it has become apparent that this "sulfation factor activity" encompasses a complex system ofligands (IGFs), receptors, and carrier proteins that are, in tum, responsible for a wide array of cellular actions. The IGF system has been demonstrated to be critically involved in both intrauterine and postnatal growth, and to have important implications in cancer biology as well, owing to the ability of the IGFs to function in endocrine, paracrine, and autocrine modes and given the wide distri bution of IGFs in virtually every organ system. The contributions to The /GF System reflect the wide span of interest in the IGF system and its implications for normal and abnormal growth and metabolism. The chapters have been divided into four broad sections: I. Molecular biology of the IGF system; II. Bio logical actions of the IGFs; III. IGF physiology; and IV. Clinical aspects of the IGFs. We have made every effort to highlight the major contemporary themes in IGF biology, but as is inevitable in such a fast-moving field, perspectives will continue to change as new information is accumulated.

Book Credibility Assessment

  • ISBN : 9401578567
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book Credibility Assessment written by J.C. Yuille and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Credibility assessment refers to any attempt to ascertain truthfulness. Other terms which have been used to refer to the assessment of credibility include the detection of deception and lie detection. The term lie detection has become virtually synonymous with the use of the polygraph and can no longer be used to refer to the range of procedures currently employed to assess credibility. Also, both lie detection and the detection of deception have a negative cast which does not fully capture the orientation of current approaches to credibility. Consequently, the term credibility assessment has emerged recently as the preferred label. The goal of credibility assessment is typically the determination of the truth of a statement or be found in set of statements. The need or desire to make such an assessment can every human context from marital relations through clinical examinations to police and court interrogations. Examples of the kinds of statements which require credibility assessment are: 1) A child's assertion that she or he has been sexually abused. 2) The claim by a previously suicidal person that he or she has recovered and will not attempt suicide again. 3) The denial of guilt by a suspect in a criminal investigation. 4 ) The confident statement of a witness that he or she is sure in his or her identification of a thief. 5) The vow of loyalty by a potential employee for a security job. It is necessary to assess the credibility of these and similar statements.

Book Macrocriminology and Freedom

Download or read book Macrocriminology and Freedom written by John Braithwaite and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 814 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can power over others be transformed to ‘power with’? It is possible to transform many institutions to build societies with less predation and more freedom. These stretch from families and institutions of gender to the United Nations. Some societies, times and places have crime rates a hundred times higher than others. Some police forces kill at a hundred times the rate of others. Some criminal corporations kill thousands more than others. Micro variables fail to explain these patterns. Prevention principles for that challenge are macrocriminological. Freedom is conceived in a republican way as non-domination. Tempering domination prevents crime; crime prevention reduces domination. Many believe a high crime rate is a price of freedom. Not Braithwaite. His principles of crime control are to build freedom, temper power, lift people from poverty and reduce all forms of domination. Freedom requires a more just normative order. It requires cascading of peace by social movements for non-violence and non-domination. Periods of war, domination and anomie cascade with long lags to elevated crime, violence, inter-generational self-violence and ecocide. Cybercrime today poses risks of anomic nuclear wars. Braithwaite’s proposals refine some of criminology’s central theories and sharpen their relevance to all varieties of freedom. They can be reduced to one sentence. Strengthen freedom to prevent crime, prevent crime to strengthen freedom. ‘A true magnum opus, Macrocriminology and Freedom is a thought provoking and generative book from one of criminology’s intellectual giants. John Braithwaite reaches far and wide across societies, time, and disciplines to advance no less than a theory of how to build a society that simultaneously reduces both domination and crime. His ambitious ideas on cascades of non-dominating collective efficacy and crime prevention, for example, and their connections to social movements and political freedom, go well beyond usual criminological discourse. Chock full of theoretical propositions and bold insights, this a book that will keep criminologists busy for years. Macrocriminology and Freedom should not just be read, but better yet, savoured.’ – Robert J. Sampson, Henry Ford II Professor of the Social Sciences, Harvard University ‘In this majestic theorisation of the relationship between crime and freedom John Braithwaite isolates the unique power of macrocriminology as a lens through which to comprehend and challenge many of the fundamental crises facing our planet. Very few scholars have the breadth and overview to succeed in a mission of this order … Braithwaite does. This extraordinary book is an object lesson for all who seek to understand and resist domination and the crimes of power that flow from it.’ – Penny Green, Professor of Law and Globalisation, Queen Mary University of London ‘For over 40 years, John Braithwaite has been a voice of wisdom, hope and humanity in criminology. This dazzling new book weaves together all the main themes of his influential work, reanimating many of the core concepts of the discipline, as well as incorporating interdisciplinary resources from south and north, east and west, to produce an elegant and ambitious explanatory and normative account of crime as freedom-threatening domination. Decentring criminal justice as the solution to crime, Braithwaite shows that, on a global scale, the aspiration to tackle crimes, ranging from interpersonal violence through corporate crimes to ecocide, lies in the development of freedom-enhancing, power-tempering institutions in the political, economic and social spheres.’ – Nicola Lacey, Professor of Law, Gender and Social Policy, London School of Economics ‘Macrocriminology and Freedom is a criminological epic, an expansive and erudite story that sweeps across history and contexts. The book is frightening in showing how cascading events can produce catastrophes from crime to environmental destruction. But in the end, its message is hopeful, identifying pathways—or “normative rivers”—for guiding freedom from domination and crime. Drawing on his distinguished career, John Braithwaite has bestowed an extraordinary gift—a book, like other masterpieces, that will yield special insights each time we take an excursion through its pages.’ – Francis T. Cullen, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus, University of Cincinnati ‘In this engaging book John Braithwaite reinvigorates discussions about crime and its control. While advocating a macro approach, the book is punctuated not only with insights and data from smaller-scale studies conducted in a range of jurisdictions, but also with auto-biographical vignettes. The effect creates a deeply personal account of the perils of state, non-state and market violence and authoritarianism and the potential and indeed duty, of criminologists to work towards their reduction, by refocusing their efforts on explaining and tackling crime in its myriad of forms.’ – Mary Bosworth, Professor of Criminology, University of Oxford and Monash University ‘John Braithwaite has had a unique influence on criminology globally. In this encyclopaedic text he synthesises a wealth of criminological knowledge, particularly in the sphere of anomie theory, into broader debates about the nature of domination and freedom in contemporary society. He defends the relevance of criminological theory, while urging criminology to be activist rather than reactive and technocratic, counter-hegemonic rather than neutral. Not for the first time, John Braithwaite has challenged criminologists to construct theories that cut across micro and macro structures. This book will stir debate. It deserves a broad readership.’ – Harry Blagg, Professor of Criminology, University of Western Australia

Book Knowledge and Civil Society

Download or read book Knowledge and Civil Society written by Johannes Glückler and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-08 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book focuses on the role of civil society in the creation, dissemination, and interpretation of knowledge in geographical contexts. It offers original, interdisciplinary and counterintuitive perspectives on civil society. The book includes reflections on civil and uncivil society, the role of civil society as a change agent, and on civil society perspectives of undone science. Conceptual approaches go beyond the tripartite division of public, private and civic sectors to propose new frameworks of civic networks and philanthropic fields, which take an inclusive view of the connectivity of civic agency across sectors. This includes relational analyses of epistemic power in civic knowledge networks as well as of regional giving and philanthropy. The original empirical case studies examine traditional forms of civic engagement, such as the German landwomen’s associations, as well as novel types of organizations, such as giving circles and time banks in their geographical context. The book also offers insider reflections on doing civil society, such as the cases of the Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong, epistemic activism in the United States, and the #FeesMustFall movement in South Africa.
