Why We are Not what We Think We are
Questions about personal identity and about time affect us all. The concern for «our» future and the fear of «our» death are based on (mostly vague) concepts of personal identity over time. Though the atomic components of our present body are not identical with the ones shown on our childhood photos, we have no doubts in recognizing ourselves on those pictures. Similarly, we are convinced that «we» will be able to recognize «ourselves» on our present passport-photos even in the future. Is this confidence justified? If it is not, our conception of life and death would be as faulty as was the image of the universe in the Middle Ages.
Challenges to The Second Law of Thermodynamics
The advance of scienti?c thought in ways resembles biological and geologic transformation: long periods of gradual change punctuated by episodes of radical upheaval. Twentieth century physics witnessed at least three major shifts — relativity, quantum mechanics and chaos theory — as well many lesser ones. Now, st early in the 21 , another shift appears imminent, this one involving the second law of thermodynamics. Over the last 20 years the absolute status of the second law has come under increased scrutiny, more than during any other period its 180-year history. Since the early 1980’s, roughly 50 papers representing over 20 challenges have appeared in the refereed scienti?c literature...
The Worldwide List of Alternative Theories and Critics
This Worldwide List of Alternative Theories and Critics (only avalailable in english language) includes scientists involved in scientific fields. The 2023 issue of this directory includes the scientists found in the Internet. The scientists of the directory are only those involved in physics (natural philosophy). The list includes 9700 names of scientists (doctors or diplome engineers for more than 70%). Their position is shortly presented together with their proposed alternative theory when applicable. There are nearly 3500 authors of such theories, all amazingly very different from one another. The main categories of theories are presented in an other book of Jean de Climont THE ALTERNATIVE THEORIES
European Constitutional Language
Provides a systematic analysis of both the historical development and current interpretation of constitutional law discourse in Europe.
Science, Medicine and Culture
Constructive Realism, an increasingly discussed philosophy of science founded by the Viennese philosopher of science Fritz G. Wallner, is the core issue of the texts gathered in this volume. The authors either discuss the constructive-realistic view philosophically or present their research interpreted by the constructive-realistic doctrine. Constructive Realism inspires philosophy as well as natural science and humanities. This volume proves this inspiring feature of Constructive Realism. All texts are written by colleagues, friends and scholars of Fritz G. Wallner to honour his 60th birthday.
The Cults of Relativity
Have you ever wanted someone to explain the Theory of Relativity to you in a way that's honest and easy to understand? The Cults of Relativity does just that, playfully explaining parallel universes, the warping of time and how Einstein derived E=mc2. Then it blasts off into the deep unknown. From there, you'll look back to see a world where some cults gather to worship statistics, while others worship a remarkable prophecy called Cem. And your guides for this journey? Albert Einstein, Mark Twain and an impressive list of physicists, physicians, philosophers...and liars. The Cults of Relativity presents a new view of our universe and is a must-read for those wishing to explore the outer edges of science.
Consequences of Impaired Consent Transfers
Legal rules and principles do not exist in isolation, but form part of a system. In this structural comparison between English and German law, Birke Häcker explores the rules and principles governing impaired consent transfers of movable property and their reversal in two- and three-party situations. This book is a re-publication of a work first published by Mohr Siebeck in Germany.
Botnia
En överlägsen fiende anfaller byarna längs Botnias kust. En grupp unga män och kvinnor rymmer ut i ödemarken och beslutar slå tillbaka. De utför gerillaräder mot små fiende-patruller och transportkonvojer. De är beredda att betala ett högt pris för sin frihet. Det visar sig att ungdomarna har inte endast fienden att kämpa mot utan också mot en förrädare i deras egen krets. Mötet med en hänsynslös legosoldat får dessutom ödesdigra följder för de överlevande. Vem kan de lita på? Boken utspelar sig i ett framtida, förändrat Österbotten och har fått inspiration av händelserna under ofredens år på sjuttonhundratalet, då en numerärt överlägsen fiende skövlade d...
Kritik der marxistisch-sozialistischen Rechts- und Staatsphilosophie
Die Klassiker des Marxismus haben die Grundelemente einer Philosophie des Staates und des Rechts nachhaltig beeinflußt. Sie zeichnen sich durch Geschlossenheit und Einbettung in eine umfassende Geschichtsphilosophie aus. Allein vor diesem Hintergrund war und ist es immer wieder reizvoll, sich mit der marxistischen Theorie auseinanderzusetzen.Im Frühjahr 1989, am Vorabend des Zusammenbruchs des sozialistischen politischen Systems, legt der Rechtsphilosoph Valentin Petev eine umfassende Kritik der Rechtsdoktrin und der gesellschaftlich-politischen Praxis des realen Sozialismus vor. Er stellt fest, daß das große humanistische Versprechen des Marxismus nicht einlösbar und das politische System des Sozialismus nicht reformierbar ist. Dies führt zu weiteren interessanten rechtsphilosophischen Folgerungen.
