Social Aggregations and Distributional Ethics

Social Aggregations and Distributional Ethics
Social Aggregations and Distributional Ethics
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1108832040 | 276 Pages | PDF | 2.4 MB
This book analyzes the following four distinct, although not dissimilar, areas of social choice theory and welfare economics: nonstrategic choice, Harsanyi's aggregation theorems, distributional ethics and strategic choice. While for aggregation of individual ranking of social states, whether the persons behave strategically or non-strategically, the decision making takes place under complete certainty; in the Harsanyi framework uncertainty has a significant role in the decision making process. Another ingenious characteristic of the book is the discussion of ethical approaches to evaluation of inequality arising from unequal distributions of achievements in the different dimensions of human well-being. Given its wide coverage, combined with newly added materials, end-chapter problems and bibliographical notes, the book will be helpful material for students and researchers interested in this frontline area research. Its lucid exposition, along with non-technical and graphical illustration of the concepts, use of numerical examples, makes the book a useful text.

Seven Habits of Highly Fulfilled People Journey from Success to Significance

Seven Habits of Highly Fulfilled People Journey from Success to Significance
Satinder Dhiman PhD EdD, "Seven Habits of Highly Fulfilled People: Journey from Success to Significance"
English | ISBN: 1932181911 | 2012 | 264 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Presenting simple processes that bring lasting fulfillment in all aspects of life, this book underscores the vital difference between success and significance. Drawing upon the time-tested principles of wisdom traditions from all over the world, the "gifts" presented in this book are devoted to leaving something behind in order to enrich one's existence. Illustrating that where success is external, significance is internal, and where success aims to acquire external objects, significance aims to harness inner qualities, this book teaches that replacing self-centeredness with "other-centeredness" increases a person's contentment in the community, the workplace, the family, and ultimately the self. Through stories, anecdotes, and powerful quotes, the guide shows that the key to abiding fulfillment lies in changing engrained mental models rather than fixing the outer environment.

Settling the Solar System

Settling the Solar System
Settling the Solar System by David Dietzler
English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BPW91Y5G | 680 pages | EPUB | 5.88 Mb
Settling the Solar Systemis a compilation of material from my first four books. It delves into mining the Moon, Mars and asteroids for resources, bootstrapping industry in space, spaceships, chemistry and more. It looks at the challenges of using space resources to build surface bases, settlements in orbit, and solar power satellites. Space tourism is also examined. There is enough detail for engineers without going over the heads of non-technical people. This volume should inform readers and stimulate their imaginations. It does not contain all the answers. It is only a beginning. The real solutions will come from future generations of engineers, scientists, and technicians. Hopefully, readers will be energized and go on journeys of discovery that lead to the settlement of outer space.
