Human Rights Human Wrongs In the Scale of Human Conscience

Human Rights Human Wrongs In the Scale of Human Conscience

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is the best gift of the United Nations and its main human rights organ the Human Rights Commission to “We the Peoples of the World”. But that powerful instrument is often rendered powerless by the behaviour of individuals running the institutions and the states arguably the most powerful institution conceptualised by human mind so far. In the process the UN comes under serious criticism and its most important organ which helped give the UDHR was dissolved for “failing to live up to its ideals”. Ironically the same states and their representatives most instrumental in creating the UN institutions including the Human Rights Commission first but later vilifying it and leading the campaign for its replacement by the Human Rights Council are now once again attacking it as “hypocritical and self-serving organisation that makes a mockery of human rights” and the most powerful member state feels compelled to walk out of the Council. Where does the world the UN and “we the peoples” stand in the search for greater freedom from want and fear better enjoyment of dignity and rights?Travelling through an extraordinary journey of life academic pursuits and expeditions of professional and diplomatic mountain climbing including the Chairmanship of the 56th Session of the UN Commission on Human Rights and its 5th Special Session on the Human Rights of the Palestinian People in the Occupied Palestine Territories Shambhu Ram Simkhada presents a scholarly diplomatic advocate and defender perspectives on the contemporary state of human rights and human wrongs in the scale of his own human conscience.

Making Architecture Through Being Human A Handbook of Design Ideas

Making Architecture Through Being Human A Handbook of Design Ideas

Architecture can seem complicated mysterious or even ill-defined especially to a student being introduced to architectural ideas for the first time. One way to approach architecture is simply as the design of human environments. When we consider architecture in this way there is a good place to start – ourselves. Our engagement in our environment has shaped the way we think which we in turn use to then shape that environment. It is from this foundation that we produce meaning make sense of our surroundings structure relationships and even frame more complex and abstract ideas. This is the start of architectural design. Making Architecture Through Being Human is a reference book that presents 51 concepts notions ideas and actions that are fundamental to human thinking and how we interpret the environment around us. The book focuses on the application of these ideas by architectural designers to produce meaningful spaces that make sense to people. Each idea is isolated for clarity in the manner of a dictionary with short and concise definitions examples and illustrations. They are organized in five sections of increasing complexity or changing focus. While many of the entries might be familiar to the reader they are presented here as instances of a larger system of human thinking rather than simply graphic or formal principles. The cognitive approach to these design ideas allows a designer to understand the greater context and application when aligned with their own purpose or intentions. | Making Architecture Through Being Human A Handbook of Design Ideas

Being Human Psychological Perspectives on Human Nature

Being Human Psychological Perspectives on Human Nature

While there may be no one single characteristic that differentiates humans as a species it is the combination of differences from other species that makes us unique. The new edition of Being Human examines the psychology of being human through exploring different psychological traditions alongside philosophy and evolutionary theory covering themes such as culture cognition language morality and society. Our nature – or ‘essence’ – is something that has preoccupied human beings throughout our history beginning with philosophy and religion and continuing through the biological social and psychological sciences. Being Human begins by describing some of the major philosophical accounts of human nature from Ancient Greek philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle to major British and Continental philosophers such as Locke and Nietzsche. The book considers religious accounts of human nature with their focus on the nature of good and evil and scientific accounts of genetics and the brain which underpin the distinctively human cognitive ability of language. Attention then turns to the ideas of the behaviourists such as Skinner Freud and other psychodynamic psychologists and humanistic-phenomenological psychologists such as Maslow. Finally human culture is discussed as the ultimate defining characteristic of human beings: culture represents our ‘natural habitat’ and what defines us as a species. This updated second edition includes increased coverage of social psychology and has a broader scope in order to identify the defining characteristics of human beings. With reference to current psychological research and philosophical material this is fascinating reading for students of psychology philosophy and the social sciences. | Being Human Psychological Perspectives on Human Nature

Human Scent Evidence

Human Scent Evidence

During the last decade a significant number of scientific studies have supported the use of human scent as a biometric tool and indicator of the presence or absence of an individual at a crime scene. These findings even extend to conducting scent identification line-ups with suspects. Human Scent Evidence focuses on some of these recent advances in the use of human scent as forensic evidence and as an identifier. Topics include:Various theories of human odor productionThe variability stability and persistence of human scent Historical aspects of the use of human scent in police work in the United States and internationallyCurrent trends in scent collection techniques including devices materials and storage protocolsChemical aspects of the evaluation of human scent including instrumental methods for odor detection and analysisThe legal significance of human scent evidence resultsCanine scent work from multiple search categories as described in the Scientific Working Group on Dog and Orthogonal detector Guidelines (SWGDOG)Human scent evidence may be of critical use in many cases where other types of evidence such as DNA fingerprints or fibers are not readily available. As such it can be a valuable tool in forensic investigations. With examples from North and South America and Europe this book draws upon an extensive literature review of past and current research and is enhanced with findings from the authors’ own research.
