The unseen universe : or physical speculations on a future state

Balfour Stewart, Peter Guthrie Tait

Beschreibung

In 'The Unseen Universe: Or, Physical Speculations on a Future State,' readers are invited to traverse the boundaries between natural philosophy and metaphysics through a compelling collection of essays that explore the unknown realms of existence beyond the observable universe. This collection harmonizes a diverse array of literary styles, ranging from speculative exposition to reflective inquiry, each carefully woven to address the elusive nature of a potential future state. Though the anthology is penned by the distinguished figures Balfour Stewart and Peter Guthrie Tait, the collective commentary transcends individual authorship, unifying to present significant, thought-provoking investigations into the invisible dimensions of reality. Stewart and Tait, both luminaries in the field of physics, leverage their extensive backgrounds to contribute substantial insights into the discussions surrounding the convergence of science and metaphysical inquiry. The anthology finds its roots in the 19th-century milieu of scientific exploration and philosophical resurgence, alongside movements that questioned previously established boundaries between physics and spirituality. Their profound inquiries are informed by an era of unprecedented advancements and skepticism of purely materialist worldviews, offering a synthesis that challenges and expands the reader's understanding. This anthology is highly recommended for those eager to engage with pioneering thought experiments that elucidate the marriage of scientific rigor and philosophical speculation. 'The Unseen Universe' promises an enriching experience that synthesizes a diverse spectrum of intellectual heritage and forward-thinking contemplation. Thus, it provides an invaluable resource for understanding the multifaceted dialogue between seemingly disparate disciplines and encourages readers to ponder their own perceptions of unseen realities within a shared intellectual tradition.

Buddhism in Daily Life And Other...

M. O’ C. Walshe

This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 85 by M. O’ C. Walshe, Buddhism in Daily Life And Other Essays narrated by Jayashree Tata Nagaraj. The print edition can be found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. 3. The eBook of Bodhi Leaves No. 85 can be downloaded from the BPS website.
 
The essays included are:

Buddhism in Daily Life
Self-Deliverance
How to Meditate without Meditating
Axolotls

 
Excerpt:
 
To be a “Buddhist” without making any attempt to put the principles into practice is nonsensical. Buddhism is essentially something to do rather than something to believe. The attainment of the higher wisdom will, for most people at least, be a long task which may not be fully achieved in this lifetime. But those who are sincerely treading the path will stand out. They will have something about them which subtly marks them out. They will be mindful, compassionate, considerate to others. While they will not rush round offering good advice to all and sundry unasked, they may well be the kind of people whom those in need of advice and help will instinctively turn to. They will be good citizens of the world, for the very reason that they are not too much caught up in its meretricious attractions.

Max Hastings On War

Max Hastings

From Max Hastings comes a collection of talks and lectures exploring the wars of the 20th century with the verve, insight and originality that has made him a number one bestselling historian.
What is war like to live through, for civilian victims, especially women, as well as soldiers, sailors and fliers? Hastings has been a life-long student of warfare, a ‘chronicler of conflict’, working first as a foreign correspondent on battlefields, then as a prolific prize-winning historian of the 20th century’s greatest struggles. He has now been studying warfare for over fifty years, published thirty books, and given hundreds of talks and lectures. Here are thirteen of the best.
Addressing questions of truth versus myth and revisiting many last-generation narratives, Hastings leads us through the most important conflicts in recent times. Listen as he explores D-Day, the Dambusters raid, Churchill’s character and achievement as war leader, Vietnam, and – in his most recent book, published in 2022, the Cuban missile crisis – 13 days when we came closest to annihilation and which stands as a mirror to the grave threats the world faces today.
Max Hastings, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the modern history of warfare, shedding light on the political relations that have shaped the world. His international acclaim is a testament to his top-notch storytelling and deep understanding of geopolitics.
For fans of Antony Beevor (Arnhem), Damien Lewis (SAS Daggers Drawn), Al Murray (Watching War Films With My Dad), Peter Caddick-Adams (Monte Cassino), and Jonathan Trigg (D-Day Through German Eyes).

The Dragons and the Snakes - How...

David Kilcullen

Just a few years ago, people spoke of the US as a hyperpower—a titan stalking the world stage with more relative power than any empire in history. Yet as early as 1993, CIA director James Woolsey pointed out that although Western powers had "slain a large dragon" by defeating the Soviet Union in the Cold War, they now faced a "variety of poisonous snakes." 
 
 
 
In The Dragons and the Snakes, the eminent soldier-scholar David Kilcullen asks how, and what, opponents of the West have learned during the last quarter-century of conflict. Applying a combination of evolutionary theory and detailed field observation, he explains what happened to the "snakes"-non-state threats including terrorists and guerrillas-and the "dragons"-state-based competitors such as Russia and China. He explores how enemies learn under conditions of conflict, and examines how Western dominance over a very particular form of warfare since the Cold War has created a fitness landscape that forces adversaries to adapt in ways that present serious new challenges to America and its allies. Within the world's contemporary conflict zones, Kilcullen argues, state and non-state threats have increasingly come to resemble each other, with states adopting non-state techniques and non-state actors now able to access levels of precision and lethal weapon systems once only available to governments.

Three Wise Monkeys - Through the...

Charles van Onselen

Volume 2 of Three Wise Monkeys explores Catholic Mozambique's role in the leisure economy of Protestant South Africa, as a place where bachelor miners and Randlords alike could project their fantasies of subtropical exotica, whether in the raucous bars and brothels of the port or in the development of the upmarket Polana Hotel and the vision of segregated 'tourist zones' for race-conscious Rand holidaymakers.
Mozambique's liminal place in the leisure and entertainment universe was nowhere better represented than in the rise and eventual fall of Lourenço Marques Radio. For decades, LM Radio beamed the hit songs of the day, and a certain vision of post-war modernity, to white South Africans increasingly in thrall to the stifling rule of Calvinist churches, the National Party and the Broederbond-dominated SABC. The eventual triumph of the SABC in muzzling LM Radio was a foretaste of the police state that came to imprison South African minds during the 1960s and 1970s.
