Cow Dung - A Down-To-Earth Solution To Global Warming And Climate Change by Dr. Sahadeva dasa (Soul Science University Press) (42 Reviews)    Price verified 6 hours ago

Environmental crisis is for real and it's coming around faster than you think. It's not a brainchild of some conspiracy theorist but a tangible, perceivable fact, proven by the catastrophic events all over the world. But for most of us, caught up in the daily grind, it's hardly a subject worth pondering over. Common man in the streets of London, New York or Delhi has very little time to worry about some ozone layer up there or some damn iceberg in the North Pole. At best, it is a snow bear's problem. But the scientific fraternity and many political leaders don't think so. They are waking up to the horrors of global warming and climatic change. Hectic efforts are on to contain the damage but with very little success. This book provides a simple solution to this grave crisis which has the potential to wipe out life altogether. This is a calamity of unprecedented proportions coming our way and a point of no return for the industrial civilization. One of the arguments sceptics throw back at you is that the climate has always changed, and that is absolutely right. It's the rate of change that is the problem right now. It's changing so quickly that it exceeds our adaptive capacity. We are in a hole and it's time to stop digging.

Feedbacks: Manage dynamical systems in business, econony, biology and social sciences, using balancing and reinforcing loops. by Juan Martin Garcia (2 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Naturally, socio-economic and ecological systems are made up of hundreds of interconnected positive and negative loops and its ultimate behaviour isn't obvious. The concept of the loop is very useful because it enables us to start from the structure of the system that we are analysing and work towards its dynamic behaviour. If a system fluctuates persistently, remains in equilibrium or drops off rapidly, we can identify the structural reasons and decide how to go about modifying the causal loops that are going to influence it. This procedure can be applied to anything from the control of an industrial process to the monitoring of diabetes or cancer, fluctuations in the price of raw materials, or economic growth. Yet the most important use of this concept is in understanding how the structure of systems affects their behaviour. In the same market and in the same year, various firms that offer the same product present very different economic results. The less competent managers put this down to causes beyond their control - the cost of labour, competitors, customers' habits, and so on - when in fact they should study why the systems they control (their businesses) have a less competitive structure than those that show better results.

QUANTUM THEORY OF SURFACES by AGUSTIN CONCA GIL (1 Review)    Price verified 8 hours ago

This unique work is a speculative theory that aims to complete and unify all physical phenomena. By completing the reading of this book and after constructive reflection, the reader will have the opportunity to understand all quantum phenomena in a complete way, and with it, understand gravity, time and their relationships and interactions with matter, obtaining in this way , the unprecedented ability to manipulate time and space in a tangible and truly possible way. Currently and as I write these lines, there is no contained hypothesis that makes it possible to travel great astronomical distances immediately, and there is no theory that really explains what time is and how it works, and none that can support a technology with which we will achieve build medical machines that in a local and controlled way, are capable of reversing the arrow of time, allowing us to carry out preconceived reconstructive transformations, unthinkable until now. This work, contained in a few pages, is undoubtedly the most important universal field of reference for the human species, as it provides the power for man to be the master of his own destiny and and be your own author.

The Four Powers: Assessments of Democracy, Abuses of Centralized Power, and Blockchain-Based National Security (Technodemocracy) by Jason M. Hanania (4powers.com) (27 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

What is power? How does it become centralized or decentralized? These questions are at the heart of understanding how governments work. Humankind has barely scratched the surface of what it takes to provide for democracy, equality, and reduced social risk. History has taught us that centralizing power in one group member creates maximum power inequality and typically results in abuse of power. Whether done consciously or unconsciously, that group member will inevitably make decisions that serve personal rather than public interests. It's human nature. In The Four Powers, Hanania provides a fast-paced historical assessment of centralized power. From World War I to crypto, Hanania explains the emerging trend toward technodemocracy: a decentralized system of governance whereby power-centralized institutions (such as churches, banks, political parties, campaign donors, Amazon, and the CIA) become obsolete. ABOUT THE AUTHOR From the author of Architecture of a Technodemocracy (2018), an Amazon bestseller for both U.S. politics and sociology, comes this eye-opening analysis of the human power structure. Jason M. Hanania is an attorney, an engineer, and a former U.S. government employee. INTRODUCTION An Equation for Power In 2016 I set out to write the book Architecture of a Technodemocracy. It documents a system for ending political party systems using technology and democracy. Before authoring that book, I searched far and wide for an institutional definition of democracy but found none. If you asked ten social scientists for a simple definition of democracy, you would get ten different responses. As an engineer, I found this frustrating. I wanted a more technical understanding of democracy, a mathematical framework to build on. The same way physical science provides equations for motion (such as force equals mass times acceleration, or F = ma), I wanted a social science equation for democracy. After struggling with this problem for months, I ...
