Absolutely Necessary!.......2002-01-10

What great timing for CNBC to come out with this classy and colorful guide to the fundamentals of investing! The rules have changed and there's nothing like CNBC to provide a back to basics approach that reminds you about the risks and potential rewards of the market. I just got my copy a few days ago and have already referred to it numerous times.

Internet Justice, Philosophy of Law for the Virtual World Our law and its philosophy were conceived for a material economic world marked by scarcity and territoriality. Without the criterion of territoriality, the dominant philosophies of law are left bankrupt. This is especially the case for KELSEN's Pure Theory of Law, in which the territoriality criterion is the cornerstone. Since the world of Internet is marked by abundance rather than scarcity, it has no territorial boundaries and it is not material, it is easy to understand that it cannot be efficiently managed according to our traditional legal and philosophical principles. On the Internet, even the Aristotelian concept of justice -which gives each his own and shares a limited amount of goods- is old hat. Although our law only recognizes this concept of justice and its nuances -as in RAWLS' Theory of Justice-, it is however impossible to apply this idea of justice efficiently in cyberspace. This book proposes a philosophy of justice suited to the virtual world and some legal principles that law-makers could apply to act efficiently and help the development of the Internet and the Information Society.

Book Description

The study draws on evidence from India and a range of countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America to argue that agricultural extension has an essential role in helping farmers to reach into new, often global, markets. There should be a comprehensive strategy within agricultural extension to
address low-income agricultural households in the context of their wider livelihoods and not merely as commodity producers.

Disappointing.......2004-04-13

I was very disappointed is this here monograph. It pretty much sucked and I did not get much out of it. It was all about animals and stuff. It has like a Panda on the cover, but in truth panda bears recieve scant attention. I guess that goes to show that the old saying is true: one can never judge a book by its cover.

Book Description

Consciousness is a much-discussed topic in scientific circles—its precise nature holding huge implications for the future of science as a viable discipline. And with so many recent advances in brain studies, questions of mind and consciousness have become critically important for both theorists and hard scientists.

Are we "nothing but a pack of neurons" that will in due course reveal their secrets in the laboratory? Or do our conscious mind and self-awareness stem from some dimension beyond material investigation? How, too, are we to account for "parapsychological" phenomena in which consciousness seems to defy space and time boundaries?

These latest contributions to the debate—selected from the annual "Beyond the Brain" conferences—show that it is time for radical rethinking of our theories and methods in investigating phenomena of the human mind.

Book Description

This volume deals with the intellectual world of "progressive" Benedictine and Cistercian monks who vicariously represent humanists in cloisters (Klosterhumanismus, Bibelhumanismus) in German speaking lands: Conradus Leontorius (1460-1511), Maulbronn, Benedictus Chelidonius (c.1460-1521), Nuremberg and Vienna, Bolfgangus Marius (1469-1544), Aldersbach in Bavaria, Henricus Urbanus (c. 1470-c.1539), Georgenthal in the region of Gotha and Erfurt, Vitus Bild Acropolitanus (1481-1529), Augsburg, and Nikolaus Ellenbog (1481-1543), Ottobeuren in Swabia.

For the first time in historical-theological research, new insights are provided into the world of the "social group" called Monastic Humanists who emerged next to the better known Civic Humanists within the diverse, international phenomenon of Renaissance humanism which may be considered the main matrix of the Reformation in Germany.
