Download or read book Politics of Species written by Raymond Corbey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The assumption that humans are cognitively and morally superior to other animals is fundamental to social democracies and legal systems worldwide. It legitimises treating members of other animal species as inferior to humans. The last few decades have seen a growing awareness of this issue, as evidence continues to show that individuals of many other species have rich mental, emotional and social lives. Bringing together leading experts from a range of disciplines, this volume identifies the key barriers to a definition of moral respect that includes nonhuman animals. It sets out to increase concern, empathy and inclusiveness by developing strategies that can be used to protect other animals from exploitation in the wild and from suffering in captivity. The chapters link scientific data with normative and philosophical reflections, offering unique insight into controversial issues around the ethical, political and legal status of other species"--
Download or read book A Strange Sort of Being written by Bambi L. Lobdell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2011-12-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1829 to a working-class family in upstate New York, Lucy Ann Lobdell was not your average girl. Donning her brother's clothes, she worked on the farm and in her father's saw mill, and demonstrated marksmanship skills that earned her the nickname "The Female Hunter of Delaware County." After leaving home, she moved to the frontier, married a woman, and lived for sixty years as a man named "Joe." Because of nineteenth century social restrictions and gender expectations, Lobdell endured forced marriage, arrest, and incarceration in an insane asylum. Although twentieth-century scholars have labeled her a lesbian, this study incorporates queer theory, analysis of stories about Lucy and Joe, and Lobdell's own writings to reveal that he was actually a transgendered man.

Download or read book Behavioral Flaws and the Human Malfunction written by Seth Abrahms and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a journey into the mind and life of humanity. From inception, the foundations of our consciousness, thoughts, desire, and actions are explained in entirety. You will learn the reasons for the many questions you have inside. There is only one requirement, first, you must learn to see reality. Most understand true happiness is not of ourselves. We cannot give ourselves peace. We cannot even know true beauty. This comes from an "understanding" of "Life" (the life inside). We cannot declare reality and Truth. And since we did not create reality, how can we proclaim what it is, or how it functions? So also, how can we proclaim our individuality from it? Thus, the concept of "self" within mankind is an illusion. Our "self" has resulted in ego—personal thoughts, desires, and actions intended to recognize, and believed to reward, us. Experience within the "unknowing mind" is an exercise in ignorance. Humanity continues to prove this condition on a daily basis. What are ideas inside minds, if not guesses from within ignorance to describe all which exists and all which should be done inside it? This is when we began deciding for ourselves, what is good and what is bad, what is correct and what is incorrect, what something is and what it is not. Now the world has become filled with many false assumptions, and also many superficial and hedonistic practices. The concept of "self" is the cause.
Download or read book Mental written by Marie Hebert and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satan’s influence over our thinking has become so invasive, so commonplace, and so prevalent that most people—even Christians—believe that stressful, cynical thinking is normal. We have bought into the lie of c’est la vie—“that’s just life.” By accepting Satan’s view of life as “normal,” we have stopped fighting for control of our own minds. By not asserting our “No,” we have tacitly given our “Yes” to Satan controlling how we think about ourselves, about others, and about God. In Mental: Satanic Torments of the Mind, Marie Hebert exposes the ways Satan cunningly distorts and manipulates our thinking in order to stymie us. More important than revealing how Satan does this, she offers counter-offensive strategies for resisting and eliminating his influence. Mental: Satanic Torments of the Mind is a must-read for anyone struggling to live a fulfilling life free of satanic influence.

Download or read book Postmodernism and Public Policy written by John B. Cobb Jr. and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of America's preeminent systematic theologians, John B. Cobb Jr. examines a range of social issues in his latest groundbreaking work, Postmodernism and Public Policy. Cobb uses a naturalistic postmodern perspective to make constructive proposals about a wide range of topics in the public eye. Postmodernism and Public Policy shows how a postmodern Christianity can contribute positively to thinking about religious and cultural pluralism, and how this can give direction to the educational enterprise. It proposes ways of understanding sex, gender, and race that take diversity seriously without lapsing into a debilitating relativism that inhibits political action. Arguing for a shift from individualism to thinking of persons-in-community, it proposes that the world be organized from the bottom up in communities of communities, and spells out what this implies for the political and economic orders and the relationship between them. Cobb shows that formulations on all these topics can be coherently interconnected and he develops the implications of such thinking for some specific ethical and political issues that now trouble the United States, such as abortion, physician-assisted suicide, and homosexuality.

Download or read book Designing Tall Buildings written by Mark Sarkisian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-22 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind, Designing Tall Buildings is an accessible reference that guides you through the fundamental principles of designing high-rises. Each chapter focuses on one theme central to tall-building design, giving you a comprehensive overview of the related architecture and structural engineering concepts. Mark P. Sarkisian provides clear definitions of technical terms and introduces important equations, to help you gradually develop your knowledge. Later chapters allow you to explore more complex applications, such as biomimicry. Projects drawn from Skidmore, Owings and Merrill’s vast catalog of built high-rises, many of which Sarkisian designed, demonstrate these concepts. This book advises you to consider the influence of a particular site’s geology, wind conditions, and seismicity. Using this contextual knowledge and analysis, you can determine what types of structural solutions are best suited for a tower on that site. You can then conceptualize and devise efficient structural systems that are not only safe, but also constructible and economical. Sarkisian also addresses the influence of nature in design, urging you to integrate structure and architecture for buildings of superior performance, sustainability, and aesthetic excellence.
Download or read book Romans written by Frank S. Thielman and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2018-11-20 with total page 813 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series is designed for those who know biblical languages. It is written primarily for the pastor and Bible teacher, not for the scholar. That is, the aim is not to review and offer a critique of every possible interpretation that has ever been given to a passage, but to exegete each passage of Scripture succinctly in its grammatical and historical context. Each passage is interpreted in the light of its biblical setting, with a view to grammatical detail, literary context, flow of biblical argument, and historical setting. While the focus will not be on application, it is expected that the authors will offer suggestions as to the direction in which application can flow.
