Описание:
According to the Map presents evidence supporting an interpretation of the design of the pyramids at Giza as a map and a message. Three levels of abstraction will be employed to argue the pyramids map frameworks upon which phenomenology, psychology, and ontology reveal themselves as fundamental to our understanding of the human situation. The perspective of the presentation is phenomenology.
Because the map is also a representation of a more fundamental conceptual geometry that could only have been designed by someone with knowledge of the multidimensionality of the cosmos, there are essentially two messages encoded in the map: there's a message about humanity's situation represented by conceptual frameworks the deciphered map illustrates, and there's a message regarding the map's authorship we're compelled to reflect upon. The map is presented as extraterrestrial in origin because if we're right about its meaning, then no other explanation seems likely.
Excerpt from the Preface:
"We're not suggesting someone other than ancient Egyptians built the pyramids, nor are we questioning the ability of an ancient civilization to accumulate sufficient knowledge and experience required to engineer a structure as spectacular as the Great Pyramid. What's in doubt is the implication that ancient Egyptians discovered the conceptual frameworks and the underlying conceptual geometry supporting those frameworks. It's hard to transcend the suspicion that knowledge of the order of things required to make those discoveries is beyond what an ancient civilization might have acquired. Reconciling knowledge encoded in the design of the pyramid complex with what's known about ancient Egyptians may turn out to be a source of debate for those unable to embrace the stretch in plausiblity of extraterrestrial influence, but it won't change the message.
Our goals are to turn the suggestion of an extraterrestrial message into a conclusion while highlighting research that may be the key to completely understanding what Earth's visitors were trying to tell us. To achieve these goals, the argument for extraterrestrial visitation is presented at a level called popular science. Consistency with this level of presentation requires abstractions that may take some getting used to, but anyone mildly familiar with object oriented thinking required in computer science, the kind of graphical analysis employed in economics, or reflections of the type common in philosophy should find the material easy to assimilate.
The map encoded in the pyramids is interpreted from the perspective of phenomenology. To support the interpretation, a significant portion of the book is dedicated to using the pyramids to conceptualize a phenomenological situation of general interest. Chapter one starts by introducing the context and approach necessary to achieve the goals outlined above. Chapter two introduces prerequisites essential to understanding the map and uses them to interpret the pyramids from the perspective of perception of (an object). Chapter three builds on chapter two by integrating consciousness into a phenomenological situation presenting itself as consciousness of (perception of (an object)). Chapter three, the longest chapter, is where everything comes together; it's where the Great Pyramid is used to provide additional insight into what the phenomenological situation reveals. By the end of chapter three it will be hard to deny the design of the map could be extraterrestrial in origin. Finally, chapter four presents the author's recollection of personal events in an attempt to provide insight into how this research came to be."

Описание: Electoral Dynamism of Indian Politics: Deciphering the Enigma explores Indian politics through the prism of electoral landmarks. It studies the substantive contribution of elections towards the strengthening of democratic institutions and consolidation of the democratic process in the country.
Looking at elections that left an indelible mark on the Indian political landscape and radically transformed the country’s democracy, this book studies the national elections with reference to how voters exercise their franchise. It also emphasizes that voting behaviour cannot be understood in a purely theoretical format as it is context-dependent and subject to constant change. Furthermore, it evaluates the outcomes and implications of these elections that brought certain political issues and forces to the centre-stage. In a country where the electoral process demonstrates the strength (or lack thereof) of the democratic will, it becomes crucial to understand elections, and by extension, the spirit of democracy.

Описание: As the People's Republic's seemingly inexorable rise to economic and military power continues, never has the need for a better grasp of Chinese strategic thought by the West been more acute. In Deciphering Sun Tzu, Derek Yuen seeks to reclaim for the reader the hidden contours and lost Chinese and Taoist contexts of Sun Tzu's renowned treatise The Art of War, a literary classic and arguably one of the most influential books ever written. He also explains its historical, philosophical, strategic, and cross-cultural significance. His comprehensive analysis of Sun Tzu, based on a close reading of the Chinese sources, also reconstructs the philosophy, Taoist methodology and worldview that effectively form the cornerstones of Chinese strategic thinking, which are arguably as relevant today as at any moment in history. Yuen's innovative reading and analysis of Sun Tzu within and from a Chinese context is a new way of approaching the strategic master's main concepts, which he compares with those of Clausewitz, Liddell-Hart and other Western strategists. Deciphering Sun Tzu offers illuminating analysis and contextualization of The Art of War in a manner that has long been sought by Western readers and opens new means of getting to grips with Chinese strategic thought.
