Ethics and Danger

Ethics and Danger examines Heidegger's association with German National Socialism and attempts to understand both the question of politics in Heidegger's thought and the thought that gives rise to that question. It explores the contribution of Heidegger's work to issues of ethics, technology, and social theory, as well as his relationship to other thinkers such as Parmenides, Aristotle, Hegel, Husserl, Benjamin, Levinas, Rorty, Foucault, and Derrida. Finally, it addresses the more general question of the future of ethical thought within continental philosophy. In order to engage the ethical issues surrounding Heidegger's life and thought, the authors speak of dangers such as facism and the facile, self-congratulatory moral stance that Heidegger exemplifies. The question of how to speak in the wake of Heidegger's thought takes many forms, and the answers represent a diversity of viewpoints from both American and continental thinkers.

Twentieth-century architect Frederick Kiesler's innovative multidisciplinary practice responded to the ever-changing needs of the body in motion, anticipating the research-oriented practices of contemporary art and architecture. In 1960, the renowned architect Philip Johnson championed Frederick Kiesler, calling him “the greatest non-building architect of our time.” Kiesler's ideas were difficult to construct, but as Johnson believed, “enormous” and “profound.” Kiesler (1890–1965) went against the grain of the accepted modern style, rejecting rectilinear glass and steel in favor of more organic forms and flexible structures that could respond to the ever-changing needs of the b...

The battle between Satan and human beings began in the Garden of Eden and continues to this day. Running conflicts between Christians and the dark lords perfected the skill and cunning of mankind's most dreaded enemies as the pages of history steadily advanced. The endless acts of madness and insanity that broadcast themselves through everything from the major media to neighborhood conversations continually reveal that Satan and his demonic legions have indeed crowned themselves in the knighthood of evil. The imminent emergence of the third Elijah and the dwindling time that precedes the Second Coming of Jesus will escalate the battle to its climactic conclusion. Your survival will largely depend on your ability to learn to battle the evil monstrosities that will seek the destruction of all mankind-an ability that can only come through the knowledge provided by God. Neutrality and indifference will not protect you. In the years that remain prior to the Second Coming of Jesus, nature and many human beings will seemingly go insane as the evil ones throw every last desperate punch. It will indeed be a time of fear and dread such as has never been seen in the history of mankind.

The New African-American Man

A timely inspirational book written by a renaissance empowerment writer & metaphysical philosopher, Malcolm Kelly. Mr. Kelly examines the victimization process of African American men. He introduces new ideas on how to use our inner power of intuition to discover the empowerment process. He uses vivid anecdotes to illustrate how he became a victim of fear, worry, alcohol, racism, equality, loneliness, religion & so on. The book examines empowerment from the perspective of a man taught by society to believe that his color made him a victim. He doesn't accept this belief & devotes his time to mastering intuition & creating new beliefs of empowerment. THE NEW AFRICAN AMERICAN MAN is a book for readers who desire to change by exploring new ideas. It also is a poignant depiction of the similarities between Mr. Kelly's victim beliefs & those of millions of African Americans who have internalized their beliefs as self-hatred, anger & powerlessness.

This book examines the use of presidential power during the War on Terror. Justin DePlato joins the debate on whether the Constitution matters in determining how each branch of the federal government should use its power to combat the War on Terror. The actions and words of Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama are examined. DePlato's findings support the theory that executives use their own prerogative in determining what emergency powers are and how to use them. According to DePlato, the Presidents argue that their powers are implied in Article II of the Constitution, not expressed. This conclusion renders the Constitution meaningless in times of crisis. The author reveals that Presidents are becoming increasingly cavalier and that the nation should consider adopting an amendment to the Constitution to proffer expressed executive emergency powers.

Theories of International Politics and Zombies

How international relations theory can be applied to a zombie invasion What would happen to international politics if the dead rose from the grave and started to eat the living? Daniel Drezner’s groundbreaking book answers the question that other international relations scholars have been too scared to ask.
