The Unconscious of Thought in Leibniz, Spinoza, and Hume

The Unconscious of Thought in Leibniz, Spinoza, and Hume
Gil Morejón, "The Unconscious of Thought in Leibniz, Spinoza, and Hume "
English | ISBN: 1399504800 | 2022 | 216 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Three early modern philosophers - Spinoza, Leibniz and Hume - understood that minds necessarily involve ideas and patterns of thinking that are not conscious. Morejon shows that in this way they sharply distinguish themselves from other major early modern thinkers whose conceptions of the mind tended to identify thinking with consciousness, such as Descartes, Malebranche and Locke. This conception of the thinking mind as conscious remains popular even today. By contrast, Leibniz, Spinoza and Hume argue instead that thought is not, as such, a matter of consciousness.

The Travels of Ibn Battuta, A.D. 1325-1354 Volume I

The Travels of Ibn Battuta, A.D. 1325-1354 Volume I
H.A.R. Gibb, "The Travels of Ibn Battuta, A.D. 1325-1354: Volume I"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 1409414760, 1409414779 | PDF | pages: 295 | 19.5 mb
Ibn Battuta was born in Tangier in 1304. Between 1324 and 1354 he journeyed through North Africa and Asia Minor and as far as China. On a separate voyage he crossed the Sahara to the Muslim lands of West Africa. His journeys are estimated to have covered over 75,000 miles and he is the only medieval traveller known to have visited every Muslim state of the time, besides the 'infidel' countries of Istanbul, Ceylon and China. This first volume records the earliest journeys through Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Arabia, on pilgrimage to the Holy Places of Islam. Among the detailed descriptions of towns on the road and of their inhabitants, he gives a particularly circumstancial account of Medina and Mecca. Sir Hamilton Gibb's edition is in four volumes with introduction and full notes. This first complete and scholarly edition in English has proved essential to orientalists and illuminating to medievalists. The travels are a major source for the political and economic life of large regions of Asia and Africa. The observations of this intelligent representative of Islamic culture on almost all the known inhabited world beyond Europe provide fruitful comparisons with the life and geographical knowledge of the West. Translated with revisions and new annotation from the Arabic text edited by C. Defrémery and B.R. Sanguinetti. Covers travels in North-West Africa, Egypt, Syria, and to Mecca. Continued in Second Series 117, 141, and 178, and with the index in 190. The main pagination of all the volumes is continuous. This is a new print-on-demand hardback edition of the volume first published in 1958.

The Thyroid Debacle

The Thyroid Debacle
Dr Eric Balcavage, "The Thyroid Debacle"
English | ASIN: B0B3DV1YKC | 2022 | 420 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
NO, YOU'RE NOT CRAZY Despite seeing dozens of doctors and thyroid specialists, being treated with thyroid medication, and having "normal thyroid labs"... you still don't feel well. Maybe you're still exhausted, gaining weight, losing hair, and feeling depressed, foggy, or anxious. You're not crazy. You're not alone. And it is not your fault. You're simply stuck in the middle of a Thyroid Debacle. For decades, modern medicine has misunderstood key points about thyroid physiology that has led to the prolonged suffering of millions of Americans - most importantly, that thyroid disorders are primarily caused by a dysfunctional thyroid gland. As a result, doctors are taught to rely on an outdated model of testing TSH and T4, and simply replacing thyroid hormone with medication, never once asking the question of what's causing the dysfunction in the first place. In The Thyroid Debacle, Dr. Eric Balcavage and Dr. Kelly Halderman explore thyroid disorders from a new perspective, looking to create a paradigm shift in how doctors and patients understand and approach thyroid physiology. They argue that hypothyroidism is more commonly an issue with the functioning of cells, not a problem with the thyroid gland itself, and that the key is to look at root causes rather than attempt to mask symptoms with pills. You can feel like yourself again. This revolutionary new approach will help you understand the real cause of your thyroid symptoms so you can make informed decisions with your doctor and take back control of your health. "This is not your usual thyroid book-thank goodness. Dig into this book. Learn howyour thyroid works, what dirties it, and howyou can clean it up. In time, you'll feel better than ever." - DR. BEN LYNCH, Author of the best-selling book 'Dirty Genes' "This book goes deep but also offers hope with practical suggestions on how to course-correct when typical thyroid interventions have failed. I recommend it to everyone who struggles with thyroid dysfunction, or who is in medicine and wants to truly learn more about the thyroid-beyond Synthroid and selenium." - CARRIE JONES, ND, FABNE, MPH, Head ofMedical Education, Rupa Health

The Sustainable Development Goals

The Sustainable Development Goals
Paul Bacon, "The Sustainable Development Goals "
English | ISBN: 1032072180 | 2022 | 206 pages | PDF | 13 MB
There have been significant efforts to implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at multiple levels of governance across all regions of the world.

This book considers the promotion of the SDGs through the lens of norm diffusion theory, with a focus on three SDG policy areas; health, education and decent work.
