![]() Eleni Lorandou, "Merleau-Ponty and Utpaladeva: A Radically Phenomenal View of Embodiment" English | ISBN: 1350456500 | 2025 | 314 pages | PDF | 2 MB Bridging the gap between two distinct philosophical traditions, Eleni Lorandou finds consonance in the philosophies of Merleau-Ponty and Utpaladeva to articulate a radically phenomenal view of embodiment. In an argument for the transcendence of limiting dualisms in thinking, she explores how western postmodernism and Indian classical thought can speak to one another across centuries, complementing each other in a new and constructive philosophy. By bringing the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty and the Recognition School of Utpaladeva into dialogue Lorandou uncovers intriguing insights into the constitution and possibilities of human experience. She delves into the intricacies of how we perceive the world around us and considers how our embodied existence shapes our understanding and experience. Questioning the notion that our perception directly corresponds to an objective reality and focusing on the topics of 'other minds', Lorandou draws soteriological conclusions. Examining the relevance of Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological reduction and Utpaladeva's self-recognition, this illuminating study turns our attention to the topics of perception, embodiment, realism, intersubjectivity, and, ultimately, the transformative implications of philosophical inquiry. ![]() Rob Poole, "Mental Health and Poverty" English | ISBN: 0521143969 | 2013 | 192 pages | PDF | 2 MB There is strong scientific evidence that poverty is a cause of mental illness.

It is told from the perspective of his 73-year-old self, aided by his wartime journal. He neither glorifies nor denigrates his experiences, but rather chronicles a young man's maturing in a difficult and tumultuous time and under stressful circumstances. Told conversationally and with the author's sense of humor occasionally showing through despite the situation, it is the history of a difficult era from a youth's viewpoint. ![]() Katie Hale, "Mediterranean Air Fryer: 95 Healthy Recipes to Fry, Roast, Bake, and Grill" English | ISBN: 164739743X | 2020 | 168 pages | MOBI | 5 MB Air fry your way to a healthier Mediterranean lifestyle starting today ![]() Joy-Ann Reid, "Medgar and Myrlie: Medgar Evers and the Love Story That Awakened America" English | ISBN: 0063068796 | 2024 | 352 pages | AZW3 | 19 MB #1 New York Times Bestseller ![]() Hourly History, "Maya Civilization: A History from Beginning to End " English | ISBN: 1656510049 | 2020 |48 pages | AZW3 | 297 KB Discover the remarkable history of the Maya Civilization... ![]() Brad Zupp, "Mastering Memory: 75 Memory Hacks for Success in School, Work, and Life" English | ISBN: 1641522860 | 2019 | 180 pages | MOBI | 2 MB Unforgettable hacks to sharpen your memory ![]() Michael Withey, "Mastering Logical Fallacies: The Definitive Guide to Flawless Rhetoric and Bulletproof Logic" English | ISBN: 1623157102 | 2016 | 200 pages | MOBI | 24 MB "If I have learned anything in ten years of formal debating, it is that arguments are no different: without a good understanding of the rules and tactics, you are likely to do poorly and be beaten."―HENRY ZHANG, President of the Yale Debate Association ![]() Andrew Lock, "Master of Thin Air: Life and Death on the World's Highest Peaks" English | ISBN: 1628725737 | 2015 | 364 pages | MOBI | 7 MB Named one of the Five Adventure Books You Need to Read This Summer" by Backpacker Magazine |
