Quando se compara o que é dito e realizado pelo Movimento EspÃrita Brasileiro com o que está nas obras fundamentais do Espiritismo, organizadas por Allan Kardec, encontra-se dois mundos diferentes: o primeiro, com rituais e opiniões pessoais sendo tomadas como verdades absolutas; o segundo, uma ciência sólida e lúcida. Mostrar e discutir as contradições entre ambos é o foco deste livro.
Durante todo o perÃodo em que codificou a Doutrina EspÃrita, entre 1857 e 1869, Allan Kardec permitiu-se apenas um passeio de lazer. Suas demais viagens foram feitas sempre no interesse do Espiritismo, nas férias de verão da Sociedade EspÃrita de Paris, para observar o desenvolvimento da Doutrina, instruir os grupos que se formavam e estimular os espÃritas a perseverarem, diante das dificuldades e dos muitos ataques recebidos. De todas essas viagens, a de 1862 – quando a publicação de O livro dos espÃritos, marco inaugural do Espiritismo, completava cinco anos – foi a mais importante, merecendo uma brochura especial, rica de informações sobre o estado da Doutrina, de instruçÃ...
What The Vatican Doesn't Want You To Know: The lies. The conspiracies. The cover-ups. The truth. Deep behind the walls of the world's holiest site is a dense network of lies, corruption, and conspiracies fueling the Vatican's vast and unchecked influence on world events. From the Holy Orders that defied the commandment "Thou Shalt Not Kill" to the scandals splashed across international headlines, the Vatican is no longer shrouded in mystery, legend, and secrecy. It's all here: The shocking and unsolved murder of the corrupt Vatican financier known as "God's Banker" Real-life exorcism--and shocking rumors of Satanism The Vatican's startling views on extraterrestrials and end-of-world prophesi...
Today, anyone in a scientific or technical discipline needs programming skills. Python is an ideal first programming language, and Introduction to Programming in Python is the best guide to learning it. Princeton University’s Robert Sedgewick, Kevin Wayne, and Robert Dondero have crafted an accessible, interdisciplinary introduction to programming in Python that emphasizes important and engaging applications, not toy problems. The authors supply the tools needed for students to learn that programming is a natural, satisfying, and creative experience. This example-driven guide focuses on Python’s most useful features and brings programming to life for every student in the sciences, engine...
This 35th volume of the 'Studies' is devoted to the technologically important BSCCO system. It focuses on a host of topics such as the synthesis and fabrication of conductors, superconducting BSCCO magnets, and the basic technological properties of the material in relation to the microstructure. The authors are distinguished in the field, working in different parts of the world, maintaining the international character of the series.
The Spiritist Review was written and published by Allan Kardec from January 1858 to April 1869. In total there are 136 monthly issues of the Review, bundled in volumes of 12 issues per year, yielding 12 volumes. It is the largest Spiritist production of Allan Kardec.In addition to the profound study of the Spiritist theory and the explanations about several questions raised by the Spiritists, the Review shows the evolution of Kardec's thought during the construction of the Spiritist Science.While complementing the two main books of the Spiritist Doctrine, The Spirits' Book and The Mediums' Book, and showing their most important applications, the Review is indispensable to all those willing to have an in-depth understanding of Kardec's thoughts.
Biomaterials research requires the union of materials scientists, engineers, biologists, biomedical doctors, and surgeons. Societal implications have invoked tremendous interest in this area of research in recent years. What started as a search for strong and durable implant materials has now led to path-breaking developments in tissue engineering, targeted drug delivery, and tissue scaffolds. Viable applications of mesoporous structures, polymer biocomposites, and fibers (synthetic and natural) in the areas of clinical orthopedics, controlled drug delivery, tissue engineering, orthodontics, etc., have emerged as relatively recent concepts. This book presents recent results related to both m...
of Polymer Chemistry, Inc. of the American Chemical Society held its The Division 15th Biennial Polymer Symposium on the topic, "Advances in New Materials," November 17-21, 1990, at the Pier 66 Resort and Marina in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. A three and one half day program was presented by recognized leaders in major areas of new polymeric materials. The topics of the Biennial Symposium included new high performance polymers, polymers for electronic applications, electrically conducting polymers, nonlinear optics, new polymer systems, and polymers derived from biological media. These are the subject areas of this volume of "Contemporary Topics in Polymer Science". The intent of the Symposium ...
