  A Theory of Justice

  Since it appeared in 1971, John Rawls's "A Theory of Justice" has become a classic. The author has now revised the original edition to clear up a number of difficulties he and others have found in the original book. Rawls aims to express an essential part of the common core of the democratic tradition--justice as fairness--and to provide an alternative to utilitarianism, which had dominated the Anglo-Saxon tradition of political thought since the nineteenth century. Rawls substitutes the ideal of the social contract as a more satisfactory account of the basic rights and liberties of citizens as free and equal persons. "Each person," writes Rawls, "possesses an inviolability founded on justice that even the welfare of society as a whole cannot override." Advancing the ideas of Rousseau, Kant, Emerson, and Lincoln, Rawls's theory is as powerful today as it was when first published.

  Eyes and Ears (eBook, ePUB)

  My parents lived in pre-war Europe under the threat of Hitler and the Nazi regime. As a soldier and counterintelligence agent, my father witnessed the death and devastation wrought by a tyrannical man and his collaborators. In 1956, my father had the unique opportunity to return to Germany at the invitation of the West German government, where his story came full circle. He was once again "eyes and ears" in a country whose people were rebuilding a new foundation of hope atop the ravages of a warped propaganda. This is not a novel. There is no building climax, nor a satisfactory resolution to that climax. Instead, it is a glimpse, through letters, into the lives of two people who happened to spend remarkable years, at a remarkable time, in a remarkable country that changed the world forever-World War II, the deadliest conflict in human history.

  Dark Psychology: The Ultimate Guide to Learn How to Use Advanced Persuasion Techniques, Reverse Psychology, NLP, Deception and Brainwashing Tacticts in Your Daily Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 229min

  Do you know what dark psychology is? Do you want to know how to persuade people using mind control with NLP for your love and your relationships? Then, read on...Achieving success in love is just like achieving success in anything else. It is mostly a function of developing good relationships with other people in order to be better able to influence them. Those people who are successful in creating and keeping good, mutually satisfactory relationships with others usually enjoy much more success than people who do not do this.The ability to grow and maintain satisfactory relationships is a trait that is easier for some people. But even if the ability does not come naturally, it is easy enough to learn. Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) makes this skill easier to learn by offering tools and ideas to enable almost anyone to cultivate the ability to develop great relationships.People never stop communicating with each other. Any type of social contact is done with some form of communication. Even if there is no actual speaking, there is communicating. If a couple has an argument and stops talking to one another, they are now using frustration and anger to communicate in silence. Teenagers who close themselves off in their rooms and refuse to speak to the remainder of the family are silently communicating their desire to be left alone. Even in situations that are more neutral, people continue to communicate with looks, sighs, and body language.Becoming more aware of this will bring a hugely different perspective on personal relationships. A great deal of the actual communication between two people is unconscious and not verbal. Do we have your attention now? In this audiobook, we will discuss the following topics:Dark personalityWays how NLP worksPractical use of NLPNLP techniquesDefinition of persuasionAnd much more...Are you excited?

  Self Control and Discipline: Program Your Mind to Achieve Your Goals, Develop Self-Esteem and Mental Toughness (Deluxe Edition) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 314min

  The purpose behind encouraging discipline to youngsters is to enable them to figure out how to regard others and to express their needs and sentiments in a socially satisfactory way. Giving control to your youngsters as they are growing up causes them to become capable grown-ups. For any discipline method to be compelling, it must be fitting for the youngster's phase of improvement. A kid, regardless of what their age, can't finish an undertaking that they are not formatively prepared to perform. Offspring of any age need to get a great deal of applause, embraces, and grins as encouraging feedback for doing the correct things. An embrace or a "thank you" is considerably more important than a bit of sweet or a toy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lizbeth Harrison.

  Soldier In Paradise, Hörbuch, Digital, 381min

  John Mort’s compelling first novel embodies both the Vietnam combat experience and the sad aftermath for those who underwent it. Alternating between “stateside” chapters after the war and the Vietnam chapters dramatizing it, the novel creates a tension back and forth in time as well as geography. We participate in the trauma of combat in crisp and authentic detail, and we witness the effect of that experience on “Irish” Donnelly, a bookish, reluctant soldier, and his fellow infantrymen in the jungles and mountains of Vietnam. Transcending any “political” focus, Soldier in Paradise dramatically renders the alienation of Vietnam veterans, ordinary men who’ve had an extra burden to bear because of the protracted, brutish character of an unpopular war that never came to a satisfactory end.

  Optimum stiffness design of wind-excited tall buildings

  Recent trends towards developing increasingly taller and irregularly-shaped buildings have led to slender complex structures that are highly sensitive and susceptible to wind-induced deflection and vibration. In the design of this new generation of tall buildings, structural engineers are facing the challenge of striving for the most efficient and economical design solution while ensuring that the final design must be serviceable for its intended function, habitable for its occupants and safe over its design life-time. The emerging performance-based design concept provides a general framework for solving the optimal serviceability design problems. This research aims to develop an innovative computer-based design method for optimal performance-based design of tall buildings achieving a satisfactory and reliable performance in various extreme and hazard wind loading conditions. The outcome of this research will provide a powerful computer-automated design tool for optimal performance-based design to deliver cost-effective low-risk design solutions for tall buildings in a typhoon-prone city, such as Hong Kong.

Such cycles can either be the basis of success and true fulfillment in life, or it can become a destructive pattern that leads someone to becoming dependent on fast fixes that turn out to be uncontrollable.This audiobook discusses what those fluctuating levels of dopamine do to our brains and effects they can have on migraines, motivation, obesity, drug addiction, or food addictions. We will also briefly touch on what dopamine fasting is and what you can do to exercise more control over your appetites to live a balanced, satisfactory life.I encourage you to give this book a try, and find out for yourself. ungekürzt.
