This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Combining evidence and theory, this book questions whether plant life and creatures could all evolve from a few cells, all with their own individual DNA, each with the intelligence of a thousand computers built in. It discusses the Big Bang theory, where our world began, the beauty of creation and all the world's elements. What happened 6,000 years ago that dramatically changed our world? In 1,500 years, humankind developed the ability not only to record history, but went from living in caves to building palaces. Something must have caused this change! Could it be that God created a new Adam and Eve? Are Judaism, Christianity and Islam based on myth or reality? Are we a unique combination of mind, body and spirit? And finally, what is history, and how does it shape our interpretation of the world around us?Ver libro
In this thought-provoking book, Antony Latham shows how science and philosophy provide evidence for the existence of God. There was a beginning of the universe, which requires an explanation beyond itself. The exquisite fine-tuning of the physical laws necessary for life has all the hallmarks of design. Paleontology and biology show unmistakable signs of an intelligence behind life. Consciousness and free-will, inexplicable in purely physical terms, point to something beyond the material. The philosophy of beauty and morality leads us to an author of both. He argues that the universe is ‘open’—not simply the interaction of matter and energy, but a realm where miracles can happen. The evidence for the greatest miracle in history, the resurrection of Jesus, is carefully presented. About the Author: Antony Latham is a retired family doctor with nine years of experience working in hospitals in East Africa. He has authored books on Darwinism and the philosophy of mind, and holds a degree in Medical Law and Bioethics. Currently, he chairs the Scottish Council on Human Bioethics. He and his wife have four children and three grandchildren. They live in the Western Isles of Scotland, where he enjoys sailing and mountaineering.Ver libro
At its peak, the British Empire spanned the world and linked diverse populations in a vast network of exchange that spread people, wealth, commodities, cultures, and ideas around the globe. By the turn of the twentieth century, this empire, which made Britain one of the premier global superpowers, appeared invincible and eternal. This compelling book reveals, however, that it was actually remarkably fragile. Reconciling the humanitarian ideals of liberal British democracy with the inherent authoritarianism of imperial rule required the men and women who ran the empire to portray their non-Western subjects as backward and in need of the civilizing benefits of British rule. However, their lack of administrative manpower and financial resources meant that they had to recruit cooperative local allies to actually govern their colonies. Timothy H. Parsons provides vivid detail of the experiences of subject peoples to explain how this became increasingly difficult and finally impossible after World War II as AfrVer libro
