Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a contemporary, integrated description of the processes of language. These range from fast scales (fractions of a second) to slow ones (over a million years). The contributors, all experts in their fields, address language in the brain, production of sentences and dialogues, language learning, transmission and evolutionary processes that happen over centuries or millenia, the relation between language and genes, the origins of language, self-organization, and language competition and death. The book as a whole will help to show how processes at different scales affect each other, thus presenting language as a dynamic, complex and profoundly human phenomenon.

Download or read book Human Trafficking written by Natividad Gutiérrez Chong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the post-Cold War era, economic globalization has resulted in the buying and selling of human beings. Poverty, social instability, lawlessness, gender biases, and ethnic hostility have entrapped millions in the world of modern day slavery, with the result that human trafficking is one of the fastest growing criminal industries in the world. Every year, men, women, and children from across the globe are transported within or across borders for the purpose of forced labor and sexual exploitation. Despite the plethora of journalistic articles written on human trafficking there is a need for more rigorous academic analysis of the phenomenon. Although groups from many different ideologies have embraced policies to end human trafficking, there are still many gaps and unanswered questions, particularly with regard to the amount of, and nature of the phenomenon. This book provides an insight into the complexity of human trafficking by addressing both how the scope of globalization impacts the sex industry and forced labor, and how vulnerability is a growing cause of human trafficking, affecting traditional diasporic and migratory patterns. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Intercultural Studies.
Download or read book Of Human Phenomena written by Philip D'Souza and published by Upfront Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central to the theme of this book is that there are two main survival instincts, that of the species and that of the individual. These instincts which are almost certainly genetically derived are responsible in the individual for psychological behaviour and in the mass for sociological behaviour. The author has argued, principally from a Darwinian standpoint, that the same instincts played a key role in the evolution of intelligence for which he advances well reasoned arguments. He has attempted to demonstrate that all ethics is traceable to the survival of the species and therefore astonishingly may be genetical in origin.Somewhere between the two lies the survival of the group urge which is responsible for such phenomena as nationalism and racism.It is implied herein cooperative endeavour is superior to conflict and competition, a situation of weak conflict, can never be fair because the struggle for survival brings out the worst in us. Indeed if cooperation on a global scale does not succeed there is a hint of doom on the horizon for all humankind.
Download or read book Conscience written by Hendrik Stoker and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2018-03-30 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conscience: Phenomena and Theories was first published in German in 1925 as a dissertation by Hendrik G. Stoker under the title Das Gewissen: Erscheinungsformen und Theorien. It was received with acclaim by philosophers at the time, including Stoker’s dissertation mentor Max Scheler, Martin Heidegger, and Herbert Spielberg, as quite possibly the single most comprehensive philosophical treatment of conscience and as a major contribution in the phenomenological tradition. Stoker’s study offers a detailed historical survey of the concept of conscience from ancient times through the Middle Ages up to more modern thinkers, including Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Freud, and Cardinal Newman. Stoker analyzes not only the concept of conscience in academic theory but also various types of theories of conscience. His work offers insightful discussions of problems and theories related to the genesis, reliability, and validity of conscience. In particular, Stoker analyzes the moral, spiritual, and psychological phenomena connected with bad conscience, which in turn illuminate the concept of conscience. The book is deeply informed by the traditions of western Christianity. Available for the first time in an accessible English translation, with an introduction by its translator and editor, Philip E. Blosser, it promises to be of interest to philosophers, especially in Christian philosophy and phenomenology, and also to all those interested in moral and religious psychology, ethics, religion, and theology.

Book excerpt: In 'CROWD PSYCHOLOGY: Understanding the Phenomenon and Its Causes (10 Books in One Volume),' a curated anthology of pivotal texts by some of the most influential minds in sociology and psychology, the reader is invited to explore the nuanced and intricate landscape of crowd behavior and its impact on society. This collection spans a diverse array of literary styles and theoretical viewpoints, offering a comprehensive exploration into the psychological and sociological dynamics that shape mass movements. From the foundational theories of Freud to the sociopolitical analyses of Lippmann, each work contributes to a multifaceted understanding of crowd psychology, standing as testament to the complexity of human behavior in collective contexts. The contributing authors, including pioneers such as Sigmund Freud, Gustave Le Bon, and William McDougall, come from a broad spectrum of disciplinary backgrounds, yet all converge on the critical study of group dynamics and collective behavior. The historical and cultural breadth represented in this collection reflects the evolution of crowd psychology theory from its inception in the late 19th century through the 20th century, offering insights into the factors driving mass movements, propaganda, and social control. Their collective works illuminate the intersections of psychology, sociology, and anthropology, capturing a critical period in the development of social sciences. 'CROWD PSYCHOLOGY: Understanding the Phenomenon and Its Causes' is an indispensable resource for scholars, students, and anyone keen to delve into the complexities of human nature and collective behavior. This anthology not only lays the groundwork for understanding the psychological underpinnings of group dynamics but also invites a deeper contemplation of the forces that unite and divide societies. Through its comprehensive coverage and the diverse perspectives of its authors, this collection fosters a rich dialogue on the interplay between individual and collective identities, offering a unique opportunity to engage with the seminal theories that continue to shape discussions on crowd psychology today.

Book excerpt: Accessibly written, this interdisciplinary book reviews theory and research on the characteristics of sexual desire, the individual physical and mental factors that influence the experience of sexual desire (hormones, age, gender, beliefs, mood), the various partner characteristics that incite sexual desire (attractiveness) and the association between sexual desire and interpersonal, relational events and experiences (romantic love). The book concludes with an examination of the personal, interpersonal and societal implications of sexual desire. Throughout, the authors draw on findings from their own body of research on sexual and romantic attraction, as well as on an extensive review of the relevant social, behavioural and medical science
Download or read book The Genius of Kinship written by German Valentinovich Dziebel and published by Cambria Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dziebel has doctorates in both history and anthropology and is currently both advisor to the Great Russian Encyclopedia and senior anthropologist at Crispin Porter + Bogusky advertising agency. His extremely dense work is actually three books in one. The first is a history of kinship studies from the early 19th century to the present. The second is a comparative study of kinship terminology among non-Indo-European languages, for which he has also prepared a data base published on the internet. The third section, highly controversial, as he admits, uses anthropology, mitochondrial studies and linguistics to suggest that the "out of Africa" model of human origins may be in error and that the first humans actually came from the Americas and spread from there to the rest of the world.

Download or read book Identified Flying Objects written by Dr. Michael P. Masters and published by Masters Creative . This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Could “UFOs” and “Aliens” simply be us, but from the future? This provocative new book cautiously examines the premise that extraterrestrials may instead be our distant human descendants, using the anthropological tool of time travel to visit and study us in their own hominin evolutionary past. Dr. Michael P. Masters, a professor of biological anthropology specializing in human evolutionary anatomy, archaeology, and biomedicine, explores how the persistence of long-term biological and cultural trends in human evolution may ultimately result in us becoming the ones piloting these disc-shaped craft, which are likely the very devices that allow our future progeny to venture backward across the landscape of time. Moreover, these extratempestrials are ubiquitously described as bipedal, large-brained, hairless, human-like beings, who communicate with us in our own languages, and who possess technology advanced beyond, but clearly built upon, our own. These accounts, coupled with a thorough understanding of the past and modern human condition, point to the continuation of established biological and cultural trends here on Earth, long into the distant human future.
Download or read book Neurobiology of Chemical Communication written by Carla Mucignat-Caretta and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-02-14 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intraspecific communication involves the activation of chemoreceptors and subsequent activation of different central areas that coordinate the responses of the entire organism—ranging from behavioral modification to modulation of hormones release. Animals emit intraspecific chemical signals, often referred to as pheromones, to advertise their presence to members of the same species and to regulate interactions aimed at establishing and regulating social and reproductive bonds. In the last two decades, scientists have developed a greater understanding of the neural processing of these chemical signals. Neurobiology of Chemical Communication explores the role of the chemical senses in mediating intraspecific communication. Providing an up-to-date outline of the most recent advances in the field, it presents data from laboratory and wild species, ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates, from insects to humans. The book examines the structure, anatomy, electrophysiology, and molecular biology of pheromones. It discusses how chemical signals work on different mammalian and non-mammalian species and includes chapters on insects, Drosophila, honey bees, amphibians, mice, tigers, and cattle. It also explores the controversial topic of human pheromones. An essential reference for students and researchers in the field of pheromones, this is also an ideal resource for those working on behavioral phenotyping of animal models and persons interested in the biology/ecology of wild and domestic species.
