  Obscurantism in power When...

  Over the last ten years or so, it has become commonplace to hear talk of an obscurantist threat linked to a rise in irrationality, manifested mainly by a mistrust of vaccination and conventional medicine. But obscurantism can also be found where we pride ourselves on fighting it. In this case, it is no longer the work of marginal or anti-establishment groups, but of a dominant way of thinking that presents itself as that of science and rationality. 
  The aim of this book is to lift the veil on this obscurantism in power. Through numerous examples, from impeded research into unexplained phenomena such as near-death experiences, to the vast field of medicine where the pharmaceutical industry has cornered the market on proving the usefulness of a treatment, Brice Perrier reveals how reason is transformed into dogmatism and hinders the advancement of knowledge. 
  The aim of the book is not to say what is true or false, nor to settle scientific controversies, but to understand why these debates, which have always been legitimate and even necessary in science, may simply no longer be allowed.

  Everyday Freedom - Designing the...

  Philip K. Howard

  • 0

  Something basic is missing in our culture. Americans know it. Nothing much works as it should. Simple daily choices seem impossible, or fraught with peril. In the workplace, we walk on eggshells. Big projects get stalled in years of review. Endemic social problems such as homelessness become, well, more endemic. 
   
   
   
  Everyday Freedom offers a radical reinterpretation of the corrosion of American culture. The assault on authority after the 1960s, aimed at enhancing freedom, instead created a plague of powerlessness. The teacher in the classroom, the principal in a school, the nurse in the hospital, the official in Washington, the parent on a field trip . . . all have their hands tied. Things don't work, and Americans have lost the freedom to be themselves. 
   
   
   
  Everyday Freedom offers a radical vision for change: Re-empower Americans in their everyday choices. The massive legal structures erected since the 1960s were based on flawed notions that human judgment could be replaced by elaborate dictates. These failed structures must be replaced with simpler frameworks activated by human responsibility and accountability. Nothing will work sensibly until Americans are free to draw on their skills, intuitions, and values when confronting daily challenges. This is the only cure to alienation. This is also the only way to deliver good government.

  Geratology - Understanding Old...

  Geratology is the scientific study of aging, encompassing its biological, psychological, and social dimensions. While often confused with geriatrics, which focuses on medical care for older adults, geratology takes a broader approach, examining aging as a lifelong process that affects individuals and societies in complex ways. Understanding geratology is crucial as global life expectancy rises and aging populations reshape economic, healthcare, and social structures. 
  The origins of geratology trace back to early philosophical and medical inquiries into longevity. Ancient Greek and Roman scholars explored aging as a natural phenomenon, while modern scientific advancements have provided deeper insights into the mechanisms of aging. Over the past century, geratology has evolved into an interdisciplinary field, drawing from biology, psychology, sociology, and public health to analyze how people age and how societies can better support aging populations. 
  At its core, geratology investigates the biological changes that occur with age. These include cellular senescence, genetic factors, and the gradual decline of organ function. Research into longevity has uncovered key processes such as telomere shortening, oxidative stress, and the role of inflammation in age-related diseases. While aging is an inevitable process, scientific advancements continue to explore ways to slow its progression and improve quality of life in later years.

  The Great Famine of 1896-1897 -...

  The Great Famine of 1896-1897 was one of the most devastating periods of hunger and suffering in colonial India. Spanning across large regions, particularly in the Deccan Plateau, this famine marked a tragic chapter in the history of British colonial rule. It resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of people, although the exact number remains disputed due to the limited data available from that era. 
  This famine was not an isolated event but part of a larger pattern of food scarcity issues that India faced under British colonial governance. However, the 1896-1897 famine stood out due to the scale of its impact, the widespread malnutrition it caused, and the delayed and ineffective relief efforts by the British authorities. The failure to provide adequate assistance and the harsh economic policies implemented during this period are considered by many as contributing factors to the famine’s severity. 
  The environmental conditions in India played a significant role in the famine. A series of poor monsoons coupled with crop failures resulted in a severe food shortage. However, the effects of the famine were compounded by British policies that prioritized export of food grains from India to feed the empire’s industrial needs. This practice exacerbated food scarcity in the affected regions, leaving local populations without the resources they needed to survive.
