Book Description
Creative Intelligence extends Korzybski's concept of Nous by weaving into its fabric insights from Eastern philosophies. Introducing us to Realization (the seeing of reality) and Liberation (the aim of life), it teaches us, to 'unlearn' Aristotelian learning - that rigid pattern of thought that we are indoctrinated with from birth - and to escape the confines of memory, association and, most importantly, words. Reading this exposition of Nous, we learn how it even forms the basis of many aspects of NLP - that other radical system for re-thinking the self. We discover how Nous is vital to human progress - how it fuels invention and solves problems - and we realise its potential to overcome the distorted materialism that defines us. One of the most important studies of creativity ever written, Creative Intelligence guides us towards a state of pure creative intelligence, communicating the very secret of creativity. Written for teachers, trainers, therapists and principally the curious individual, this book enables us to achieve the main goal of existence' Self Liberation.

Book Description
This book aims to provide insights into how ‘second lives’ in the sense of virtual identities and communities are constructed textually, semiotically and discursively, specifically in the online environment Second Life and Massively Multiplayer Online Games such as World of Warcraft. The book’s philosophy is multi-disciplinary and its goal is to explore the question of how we as gamers and residents of virtual worlds construct alternative online realities in a variety of ways. Of particular significance to this endeavour are conceptions of the body in cyberspace and of spatiality, which manifests itself in ‘natural’ and built environments as well as the triad of space, place and landscape. The contributors’ disciplinary backgrounds include media, communication, cultural and literary studies, and they examine issues of reception and production, identity, community, gender, spatiality, natural and built environments using a plethora of methodological approaches ranging from theoretical and philosophical contemplation through social semiotics to corpus-based discourse analysis.

Book Description
Is there an innate healing system within the body, capable of facilitating the healing process? And if so, what is the mechanism that triggers this potential? Many scientists, philosophers, healers, and spiritually minded people have asked these very same questions, and Dr. Michael Wayne has begun to address the answers. Although billions of dollars fuel the modern healthcare system, people are not getting healthier-the contrary seems to be the case. Modern medicine does not have a good track record with chronic ailments because these are more complicated, diverse, and unpredictable, and do not fit in with modern medicine's more linear approach that requires patterns that follow set rules. For this reason our current form of medicine has problems with many illnesses, even those as commonplace as the common cold.

Book Description
Science, coupled with technology, has become the dominant force in most parts of the world. Thus, it affects our lives and society in many ways. Yet, misconceptions about science are widespread in governments, the general public, and even among many scientists. Science and Beyond explores these misconceptions that may have grave and even disastrous consequences for individuals and society as was evident during the COVID-19 pandemic, where they led to much unnecessary suffering, sickness, and death. The misconceptions also obscure the limitations of science. Not seeing these limitations prevents us from seeing and going beyond them, which leads to a crippled life and an impoverished society. But reaching beyond the limitations of science, as outlined in this book, can open the doors to a more fulfilled, saner, healthier, happier, and more peaceful life and society.

Book Description
This unique collection of "CREATIVE INTELLIGENCE & Other Works on the Human Thought Process" has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards. Table of Contents: How We Think Leibniz's New Essays Concerning the Human Understanding Essays in Experimental Logic Creative Intelligence: Essays in the Pragmatic Attitude et al. Human Nature and Conduct: An Introduction to Social Psychology Excerpt: "Everything that comes to mind, that 'goes through our heads,' is called a thought. To think of a thing is just to be conscious of it in any way whatsoever. Second, the term is restricted by excluding whatever is directly presented; we think (or think of) only such things as we do not directly see, hear, smell, or taste." (How We Think) John Dewey (1859-1952) is one of the primary figures associated with the philosophy of pragmatism and is considered one of the founders of functional psychology. His ideas have been influential in education and social reform. Known for his advocacy of democracy, Dewey considered two fundamental elements—schools and civil society—to be major topics needing attention and reconstruction to encourage experimental intelligence and plurality.
