Agartha : El Mundo Interno de la Tierra (9789198464962)

En la época Medieval, las personas creían que la Tierra era plana y que el sol giraba en torno a ella. La Iglesia Católica consideraba que era herejía sugerir que la Tierra era redonda y orbitaba el sol. El astrónomo Copernicus estaba al tanto de esto y no se atrevió a publicar sus descubrimientos hasta estar en su lecho de muerte en 1543. La siguiente mayor "divulgación" se revela en este libro. La Tierra es hueca y poblada por una raza avanzada, la cual está planeando venir a ayudar a las personas en la superficie muy pronto. ¿Los científicos y la comunidad religiosa aceptarán este concepto? ¿Es esto ciencia ficción, fantasía o liberación? Sólo Podemos recomendarte que leas este libro, escrito como una novela, y evalúes tu propia opinión. Están aquellos que ya han visitado Agartha, el mundo dentro del planeta, y allí encontraron una sociedad avanzada y próspera. El almirante Richard E. Byrd, EU (1947) es uno de ellos. Él no solía construir castillos en el aire. ...

The Rise of Rome : Books One to Five (9780199540044)

`the fates ordained the founding of this great city and the beginning of the world's mightiest empire, second only to the power of the gods' Romulus and Remus, the rape of Lucretia, Horatius at the bridge, the saga of Coriolanus, Cincinnatus called from his farm to save the state - these and many more are stories which, immortalised by Livy in his history of early Rome, have become part of our cultural heritage. The historian's huge work, written between 20 BC and AD 17, ran to 12 books, beginning with Rome's founding in 753 BC and coming down to Livy's own lifetime (9 BC). Books 1-5 cover the period from Rome's beginnings to her first great foreign conquest, the capture of the Etruscan city of Veii and, a few years later, to her first major defeat, the sack of the city by the Gauls in 390 BC. The complete Livy in English, available in five volumes from Oxford World's Classics. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has mad...

The Devil and Philosophy : The Nature of His Game (9780812698541)

In The Devil and Philosophy, 34 philosophers explore questions about one of the most recognizable and influential characters (villains?) of all time. From Roman Polanski's The Ninth Gate to J. R. R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion to Bram Stoker's Dracula to Darth Vader to Al Pacino's iconic performance in The Devil's Advocate, this book demonstrates that a little devil goes a long way. From humorous appearances, as in Kevin Smith's film Dogma and Chuck Palahniuk's novels Damned and Doomed, to more villainous appearances, such as Gabriel Byrne's cold outing as Satan in End of Days, The Devil in Philosophy proves that the Devil comes in many forms. Are there any good arguments for the actual existence of the Devil? Does demonic evil thrive in Gotham City? Can humans really be accountable for all evil? Which truths about the Devil are actual facts? Is Milton correct, in that the Devil believes he is doing good? Through the lenses of Jung, Kant, Kundera, ...

Why Liberalism Failed (9780300240023)

Has liberalism failed because it has succeeded? "Why Liberalism Failed offers cogent insights into the loss of meaning and community that many in the West feel, issues that liberal democracies ignore at their own peril."-President Barack Obama "Deneen's book is valuable because it focuses on today's central issue. The important debates now are not about policy. They are about the basic values and structures of our social order."-David Brooks, New York Times Of the three dominant ideologies of the twentieth century-fascism, communism, and liberalism-only the last remains. This has created a peculiar situation in which liberalism's proponents tend to forget that it is an ideology and not the natural end-state of human political evolution. As Patrick Deneen argues in this provocative book, liberalism is built on a foundation of contradictions: it trumpets equal rights while fostering incomparable material inequality; its legitimacy rests on consent, yet i...

Writing Science : How to Write Papers That Get Cited and Proposals That Get Funded (9780199760244)

As a scientist, you are a professional writer: your career is built on successful proposals and papers.

I Never Left My Daddy's Table Hungry (9781387077243)

In our modern world of smartphones, video games, wifi hotspots, and Netflix, it's hard to imagine that, less than eighty years ago, there were people in rural Arkansas who were still scratching a living off the land.

Instead, the author of this book relates his own experiences with humble honesty and wit-filled humor. His fond childhood recollections are framed by the wisdom of many years as he relates what life was like for himself and his family during the 1940's. Product details Format Hardback ...

Clinical Perspectives on Elderly Sexuality (9780306463358)

Throughout my clinical training and practice, I have been surprised by the number of times that sexual issues have emerged as an unexpectedly central feature in my work with older adults. I can vividly remember my own internal reaction on hearing one of my elderly female patients tell me that she was date raped a few years after the death of her elderly husband-when she was 68 years old. I can see in my mind's eye the blood splattered on the floor of an inpatient unit from an elderly man who smashed his arm through a window, furious that his antidepressant medication made it impossible to climax through masturbation. On a much less dramatic but equally important note, I think about the elderly amputee who told me softly about his fears of resuming sexual activity with his wife of 25 years. I also think about the elderly woman whose inability to take herself shopping to find fashionable, comfortable clothes to fit over her hunched shoulders and large breasts helped precipitate a ser...
