The ebook edition of this title is Open Access, thanks to Knowledge Unlatched funding, and freely available to read online. Despite ongoing efforts to promote diversity, universities continue to reflect and perpetuate traditional patriarchal, colonial, and privileged hierarchies of gender, ethnicity, and class.

Everyday Ethics by Philip Wik (A Blue Kitten Book) (2 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Everyday Ethics is my effort to try to understand ethics. We live in a world of many values and voices. Some bellow from a landscape of moral relativism. Money, power, and celebrity are voices that overpower the quieter voices of tradition. But the paradox is that sometimes the louder voices are the right voices. That popularity isn't always wrong and tradition isn't always right is the enduring challenge for those seeking guidance on how we should live. Ethics pervades the way we choose our leaders, raise our children, and how we work and play. Everyday ethics is at the core of our humanity.

Passages to Eternity: Philosophic meditations in poetic form on the meaning of eternity for 72 famous persons. by James Winder Price verified 3 hours ago

As a philosopher once surmised: talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius, he insisted, hits a target no one else can see. The greatest artists and thinkers are the greatest seers. They do not imagine... only and merely. They study the facts, they think the facts, they feel the facts, until the facts, the acts of faith, the articles of invention, dissolve in the naked light of the hitherto unseen, until fact, faith, and invention fall away like Halloween masks, like swaddling clothes; and then, leaving behind the tricks and the treats, they teach us what to hallow: the nakedness of a newborn joy, perpetually born anew, a joy that can never die, because it never quite knows, but never fails to enjoy, how early it already is, and how young it was always going to be. All thinking, carried far enough, ends in paradox: trying to think the unthinkable. All feeling, carried far enough, ends in paradox: trying to feel the unfeelable. But one can feel the unthinkable, and think the ...

Nuclear Survival in the Suburbs: Non-fiction by Don Shift (37 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

How does a person who lives in a wood framed house in the suburbs survive a nuclear war, especially if they don't have a basement? Turns out, the crazy advice to get into the interior rooms of your house and shelter underneath the mattress isn't so nuts after all. You don't need a fallout shelter to survive and you may only have to stay inside to avoid lethal radiation poisoning. How is this possible? A highly overlooked defense against radiation is distance. Basically, if you can get inside away from the radiation outside, the dose you will be exposed to will be around half. This is why you're told to get into the center of a building. If the radiation level is low enough, even sheltering in the center of a joisted masonry or wood framed slab on grade house can be effective. Major cities with metropolitan populations of one million or more are the likely targets for nuclear weapons. The good news is that radioactive nuclear fallout isn't likely to be as widespread or intense as ...

Being Another Way: The Copula and Arabic Philosophy of Language, 900–1500 (Berkeley Series in Postclassical Islamic Scholarship Book 6) by Dustin Klinger (University of California Press) Price verified 4 hours ago

In Being Another Way, Dustin Klinger recounts the history of how medieval Arabic philosophers in the Islamic East grappled with the logical role of the copula "to be," an ambiguity that has bedeviled Western philosophy from Parmenides to the analytic philosophers of today. Working from within a language that has no copula, a group of increasingly independent Arabic philosophers began to critically investigate the semantic role that Aristotle, for many centuries their philosophical authority, invested in the copula as the basis of his logic. Drawing on extensive manuscript research, Klinger breaks through the thicket of unstudied philosophical works to demonstrate the creativity of postclassical Islamic scholarship as it explored the consequences of its intellectual break with the past. Against the still widespread view that intellectual ferment all but disappeared during the period, he shows how these intellectuals over the centuries developed and refined a sophisticated philosophy of ...
