![]() Anders Blok, Ignacio Farias, "Urban Cosmopolitics: Agencements, assemblies, atmospheres" English | 2016 | ISBN: 1138813400 | PDF | pages: 267 | 2.9 mb Invoking the notion of 'cosmopolitics' from Bruno Latour and Isabelle Stengers, this volume shows how and why cities constitute privileged sites for studying the search for and composition of common worlds of cohabitation. A cosmopolitical approach to the city focuses on the multiple assemblages of human and nonhuman actors that constitute urban common worlds, and on the conflicts and compromises that arise among different ways of assembling the city. It brings into view how urban worlds are always in the process of being subtly transformed, destabilized, decentred, questioned, criticized, or even destroyed. As such, it opens up novel questions as to the gradual and contested composition of urban life, thereby forcing us to pay more explicit attention to the politics of urban assemblages. ![]() Upcycling: 33 Ways To Reuse Broken House Hold Items by Kitty Moore English | May 27, 2015 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B00YFAFZZQ | 79 pages | MOBI | 2 Mb Take your old or broken household items & make them usable again (while saving money)! ![]() Treat Your Own Carpal Tunnel Syndrome At Home By Kirby Webb English | 2020 | ASIN : B08P11W58H | 47 pages | EPUB, MOBI | 13.2 MB ![]() Trail of Tears: A History from Beginning to End (Native American History) by Hourly History English | December 23, 2019 | ISBN: 167887213X | 46 pages | PDF | 0.39 Mb Discover the remarkable history of the Trail of Tears... ![]() Robert L.

But what if their strategy is not only flawed, but dangerous? ![]() The Special Theory of Relativity: Mathematical Refutations by Radwan M. Kassir English | August 8, 2014 | ISBN: 1500779520 | 162 pages | PDF | 10 Mb Conceivably, Einstein's theory of the Special Relativity has been the most criticized theoretical physics work of the 20th century. The theory itself involves some counterintuitive assumptions leading to absurd, rather unrealistic outcomes and paradoxes, giving the theory a kind of a fictitious, surrealistic aspect!Most opponents argue that the theory is mathematically sound, yet its mathematical formulation is based on faulty assumptions. Therefore, most attempts to disprove the Special Relativity have been oriented towards identifying inconsistent or illogical outcomes concluded from its predictions. This book, however, sets forth an analytical study of the Special Relativity formulation. It reveals that the Special Relativity assumptions are inconsistent, resulting in space and time transformations embedding mathematical contradictions. The unviability of the Special Relativity predictions is ascertained through various mathematical arguments, concluding that the theory is actually built upon the interpretations of a theoretical, deceptively plausible linear coordinate transformation-in a hypothetically four dimensional spacetime-derived from not only imaginary assumptions, but contradictory as well! ![]() The Quest for Reality: Subjectivism and the Metaphysics of Colour By Barry Stroud 2002 | 247 Pages | ISBN: 0195151887 | PDF | 2 MB We say ''the grass is green'' or ''lemons are yellow'' to state what everyone knows. But are the things we see around us really colored, or do they only look that way because of the effects of light rays on our eyes and brains? Is color somehow ''unreal'' or ''subjective'' and dependent on our human perceptions and the conditions under which we see things? Distinguished scholar Barry Stroud investigates these and related questions in The Quest for Reality. In this long-awaited book, he examines what a person would have to do and believe in order to reach the conclusion that everyone's perceptions and beliefs about the color of things are ''illusions'' and do not accurately represent the way things are in the world as it is independently of us. Arguing that no such conclusion could be consistently reached, Stroud finds that the conditions of a successful unmasking of color cannot all be fulfilled. The discussion extends beyond color to present a serious challenge to many other philosophical attempts to discover the way things really are. A model of subtle, elegant, and rigorous philosophical writing, this study will attract a wide audience from all areas of philosophy. ![]() Nick Vujicic, "The Power of Unstoppable Faith: Your Keys to a Fulfilled Life " English | ISBN: 1601426763 | 2014 | 64 pages | AZW3 | 249 KB "People often ask me how I stay positive and where I find the strength to overcome my disabilities?
