Synopsis

Trumpets Topple Walls explores a fascinating theory: could acoustic resonance have contributed to the collapse of Jericho's walls? This book examines the intersection of historical accounts and scientific plausibility, offering a novel perspective on a famous biblical event. It delves into whether the amplified sound could have caused structural damage.

 
The book argues that while divine intervention is the traditional explanation, acoustic resonance, given specific geographical and architectural features, offers a scientifically credible contributing factor. For example, the dimensions of the walls and the shape of the valley could have amplified sound, potentially causing structural weaknesses.

 
As the book progresses, it introduces the historical and archaeological context of Jericho, transitions into a detailed exploration of acoustics, and analyzes potential conditions at Jericho to explore interdisciplinary connections between archaeology, acoustics, and biblical studies. By re-examining archaeological findings and utilizing acoustical models, Trumpets Topple Walls suggests that sound may have played a more significant role in ancient events than previously thought. It offers a unique perspective that balances historical narrative with scientific inquiry, appealing to readers interested in history, science, and biblical studies.

Man: King of Mind Body and...

James Allen

"The problem of life consists in learning how to live. It is like the problem of addition or subtraction to the school-boy. When mastered, all difficulty disappears, and the problem has vanished. All the problems of life, whether they be social, political, or religious, subsist in ignorance and wrong-living. As they are solved in the heart of each individual, they will be solved in the mass of men. Humanity at present is in the painful stage of “learning.” It is confronted with the difficulties of its own ignorance. As men learn to live rightly, learn to direct their forces and use their functions and faculties by the light of wisdom, the sum of life will be correctly done, and its mastery will put an end to all the “problems of evil.” To the wise, all such problems have ceased. " 
In this short work, Allen explores the way in which our minds create and interact with our circumstances, travelling from the inner world of thoughts to the final conquest of the spirit. On the way he explores the way in which we create our own futures through the habits we choose, how bodily conditions are no excuse for spiritual weakness, and how true poverty is of the mind, not the circumstances.

Distracted - A Philosophy of...

Robert Rosenberger

Although the dangers of texting while driving are widely known, many people resist the idea that phone usage will impair their driving. And connectivity features in new cars have only made using technology behind the wheel more tempting. What will it take to change people's minds and behavior? Robert Rosenberger contends that a better understanding of why this combination of technologies is so dangerous could effectively adjust both habits and laws. 
 
 
 
Rosenberger brings together ideas from philosophy and cognitive science to leverage a postphenomenological perspective that reveals how our smartphones make us such bad drivers. Reviewing decades of empirical studies in cognitive science, he shows that we have developed habits of perception regarding our compulsive technology use—habits that may wrest our attention away from the road. 
 
 
 
Distracted develops innovative concepts for understanding technology-related habits and the ways that our relationships to our devices influence how we perceive the world. In turn, these ideas can help drivers be more cognizant of the effect that smartphone usage has on their perceptions, better inform efforts to enact stricter regulations, and help us all to be more reflective about the technologies that shape our lives.
