The Theory of Everything Quantum and Relativity is everywhere – A Fermat Universe

The Theory of Everything Quantum and Relativity is everywhere – A Fermat Universe

The book unifies quantum theory and the general theory of relativity. As an unsolved problem for about 100 years and influencing so many fields this is probably of some importance to the scientific community. Examples like Higgs field limit to classical Dirac and Klein–Gordon or Schrödinger cases quantized Schwarzschild Kerr Kerr–Newman objects and the photon are considered for illustration. An interesting explanation for the asymmetry of matter and antimatter in the early universe was found while quantizing the Schwarzschild metric. | The Theory of Everything Quantum and Relativity is everywhere – A Fermat Universe

Music Science Philosophy Models in the Universe of Thought

Music Science Philosophy Models in the Universe of Thought

This book stresses the interrelatedness of knowledge by extricating models that cut across traditional disciplinary boundaries. For example science can find models from the technology and semantic field of music music can find its models from the technology and semantic field of science and each domain may be guided by a philosophical or metaphysical principle - thus the title of the book. But the book itself is structured as a mirror image of its title. Chapters 1-6 provide instances of the role of music in such domains as epistemology and logic as well as in the early modern sciences of developmental biology continuum mechanics anatomy and physiological psychology whereas Chapters 7-10 provide instances of what some other domains of knowledge have given back to the philosophy and theory of music. | Music Science Philosophy Models in the Universe of Thought

Universe Sandbox 2 Steam CD Key

Universe Sandbox 2 Steam CD Key

Universe Sandbox is a program that allows you to track phenomena taking place in outer space. Thanks to the precise depiction of the effects of gravity as well as the location and parameters of individual objects, we can trigger huge changes that will determine the fate of the Universe with a few clicks of the mouse. The title has no specific goals. It is up to the user's creativity to determine what effect it will produce. Over 70 different simulations have been introduced in production. There are a total of 70 galaxies, 1000 stars and countless asteroids. We can compare the sizes of the largest known stars or observe the moons forming a new planet as a result of a collision, a reconstruction of space probe missions or a collision between the Milky Way and Andromeda. During the simulation, the user decides on the speed of time, manipulates the force of gravity, modifies the mass of objects and adds new ones. In addition to the event examples prepared by the creators, an editor is also available, which allows you to create your own scenarios. Thanks to this, this production is also a very good tool for people dealing with astrophysics. The graphics of Universe Sandbox harmonize with the high level of realism of the game. We can use additional filters, depending on the current needs, e.g. to observe certain phenomena, it is useful to change the color of celestial bodies depending on the speed of movement of a given object or its temperature. We freely control the angle of the camera and the level of zoom. The production does not have a musical setting, so during the game the user is accompanied by silence characteristic of outer space. Key features Material System - build planets out of Hydrogen, Iron, Rock, & Water  Solar flares & volatile trails  Procedurally generated stars & planets  Pulsars  Light-warping black holes  Dark matter

Cosmological Fine-Tuning Arguments What (if Anything) Should We Infer from the Fine-Tuning of Our Universe for Life?

Cosmological Fine-Tuning Arguments What (if Anything) Should We Infer from the Fine-Tuning of Our Universe for Life?

If the physical constants initial conditions or laws of nature in our universe had been even slightly different then the evolution of life would have been impossible. This observation has led many philosophers and scientists to ask the natural next question: why is our universe so fine-tuned for life? The debates around this question are wide-ranging multi-disciplinary complicated technical and (at times) heated. This study is a comprehensive investigation of these debates and the many metaphysical and epistemological questions raised by cosmological fine-tuning. Waller’s study reaches two significant and controversial conclusions. First he concludes that the criticisms directed at the multiverse hypothesis by theists and at the theistic hypothesis by naturalists are largely unsuccessful. Neither of these options can plausibly be excluded. Choosing between them seems to turn on primitive (and so hard to justify) metaphysical intuitions. Second in order to break the philosophical deadlock Waller moves the debate from the level of universes to the level of possible worlds. Arguing that possible worlds are also fine-tuned in an important and interesting sense Waller concludes that the only plausible explanation for the fine-tuning of the actual world is to posit the existence of some kind of God-like-thing. | Cosmological Fine-Tuning Arguments What (if Anything) Should We Infer from the Fine-Tuning of Our Universe for Life?

The Lion and the Unicorn What England Has Meant to Scotland

The Lion and the Unicorn What England Has Meant to Scotland

Originally published in 1935 and authored by a supporter of Scottish Nationalism this book ascribes many of Scotland’s misfortunes in history to the sectarian wars and those of Edward I as well as the havoc wrought by the Industrial Revolution and the decay of Scotland’s successive cultures. Reduced to political impotence by the early 20th Century and severed from that contact with Europe which fostered its early culture the author feels its national life dwindled. Many of the themes surrounding Scottish identity and independence are once again part of today’s political debate. | The Lion and the Unicorn What England Has Meant to Scotland

Social Media and Education Now the Dust Has Settled

Social Media and Education Now the Dust Has Settled

Social media are now established as an important aspect of contemporary education. We live in times where social media applications such as Facebook Twitter Tumblr and Snapchat are mainstream educational tools; where most new educational technologies claim to have a ‘social’ element; and it increasingly makes no sense to distinguish between learning ‘online’ and ‘offline’. It studies users' experiences and views of social media; addresses questions of equality and diversity concerning who is doing what with social media; examines how the use of social media applications sits alongside pre-existing cultures and structures of schooling; and brings to light the unintended and unexpected results of social media in education. Altogether this collection of writing provides a nuanced and interesting discussion of the realities of social media use across different aspects of education. This book was originally published as a special issue of Learning Media and Technology. | Social Media and Education Now the Dust Has Settled

Becoming the Supervisor Achieving Your Company's Mission and Building Your Team

Becoming the Supervisor Achieving Your Company's Mission and Building Your Team

Becoming a Supervisor tells the story of Trevor who works as one of the production team in a small company that makes toy boats. He is thrust into the role of supervisor unexpectedly when his general manager reacts to his constant suggestions of how things could be better. When the GM becomes ill Trevor struggles to take up the slack for several months until a new GM arrives. The core of the book follows Trevor’s growth under the coaching of Julie his new GM. As Trevor deals with one challenge after another Julie guides him on a journey to learn the core skills needed by all front-line leaders. The reader takes away four key ideas: (1) Front-line leadership skills are not too complicated to learn. (2) These skills are something that they can develop in themselves regardless of what their organization does. (3) Tools and skills are there to help solve real business problems; implementing the tools is not a strategy. (4) In your role as supervisor (directing or responsible for others) you have to look after the mission of the company AND look after your people – doing only one is not an option. Essentially this book is intended to give hope to a new supervisor or team lead. They will finish the book knowing that the skills they need can be learned and aren’t that difficult to acquire. It is designed to introduce the central skills that any supervisor has to be able to master at least with a basic working competency: instructing leading and making improvements in their own area. It introduces some of the more widely used tools that a new supervisor may need. More importantly it ties these tools and skills to solving particular problems. Readers will understand that the tools are not important for their own sake but only to the extent that the tools serve the larger objective of the organization. This book is designed to give the reader an entertaining and hopeful story about the very difficult transition from worker to supervisor from being one of the crew to directing the crew. It is an emotionally tough transition and the idea that someone could see a model of how it can work out will be helpful to folks new in a leadership role. Finally the book provides a reference to other sources of information that will let the reader extend their learning about each of the tools or skills referenced in the contents. | Becoming the Supervisor Achieving Your Company's Mission and Building Your Team

The Political Right and Equality Turning Back the Tide of Egalitarian Modernity

The Political Right and Equality Turning Back the Tide of Egalitarian Modernity

McManus presents an intellectual history of the conservative and reactionary tradition stretching from Aristotle and Filmer to Alexander Dugin and Patrick Deneen. Providing a comprehensive critical genealogy of the intellectual political right McManus traces its core to a nostalgia for the hierarchical cosmos of antiquarian and scholastic thinking. The yearning for a shared vision of the universe where each part of reality has its place maps onto the conservative admiration for orderly political and social stratification. It stamps even the more moderate forms of liberal conservatism which emerged in the aftermath of the revolutionary 18th century as the political right struggled to accept and later master first the politics of liberal capitalism and later universal suffrage. In its most radical forms this nostalgia for an orderly and hierarchical existence can harden into a resentment at the perceived shallowness of liberal modernity. McManus argues for those who support the project of modernity to commit themselves to better understanding the depth of the political right’s critiques many of which expose uncomfortable but solvable problems with the quest for equality and freedom. A critical guide to the history of conservative and reactionary thought for students and scholars of political science and political history. While there are a lot of competing explanations for the contemporary rise of right-wing forces Matt McManus’ new book suggests that it is hostility to equality that actually unites the right. Zeroing in on key intellectuals and writers McManus in a sharply written text offers a compelling explanation for the disproportionate intensity of right-wing grievance politics. | The Political Right and Equality Turning Back the Tide of Egalitarian Modernity
