There are many books on the market which purport to present the true origins of Christianity and the overwhelming majority of them assert, despite a dearth of evidence, that the religion began forty years before the destruction of the Jewish Temple and was the product of the teachings of one man — Jesus. Following centuries of tradition, they place a Jewish sage at the centre of an epic drama set in the reign of the Roman emperor Tiberius. It's a great story. But it never happened.

"This is a short essay presenting a philosophical model on the meaning and purpose of life. It addresses the very basic but critical question: ""Why do people do what they do and feel what they feel?"" In other words, is it possible to identify a fundamental motivating factor that commands and explains all our deeds, impressions and desires? And if so, how can such an ultimate reference of meaning help us to lead a better life? Although it recognizes its due to our philosophical tradition,...

This is a book about Leadership, with a specific emphasis on how leaders can be inspired by the thoughts of notable philosophers and thinkers on various topics connected more or less directly with their field of activity. Leaders are, in all priority, leaders of people, which means that matters of human experience, human behaviour and human relations are essential to their trade. So, the reader should not be surprised that a majority of the quotations presented in this book address the que...

Unbound doesn't mean unbroken. It just means she's got a lot less to lose.After the trauma (and drama) of Beloved's Eve, the witch Affinity Blending would really like a nap—and maybe five minutes to figure out her new gifts without accidentally blowing a hole in the roof. But when a catastrophic run-in with Hell's nastiest ændemon costs her nearly everything and everyone she loves, she's left reeling. And okay, yes—it was pretty much her fault.Now,...

We dont just lead others, we lead ourselves Increasingly, having a philosophy in a sense of knowing your strengths and understanding you life is a project is regarded as a major plus point by organizations, employers and team managers. With this in mind, The Philosophical Leaders aim is twofold: to obtain a deeper sense of our purpose by getting a philosophical grasp of the world; and to use this understanding to live a better life and become more effective leaders. Using the Project-to-Li...

And I tell you that to paint one beautiful woman, I should need to see several beautiful women, and to have you with me to choose the best, wrote Raphael, then at the zenith of his fame and good fortune, to his life-long friend Count Baldassare Castiglione, who—the ideal courtier himself—has given the world that immortal monument of Renaissance culture, the Book of the Courtier. In penning these lines the prince of painters intended, perhaps, no more than a pretty compliment to one who was...

From a disregarded, forlorn island in the early 1900s to the world-famous resort and go-to place of today, Jews have played a prominent role in Miami Beach's achievements and fame. Initially consigned to a tiny enclave on the southern tip of Miami Beach, the community's Jewish population quickly expanded north, from South Beach to Golden Beach, and assumed a leadership position in nearly every phase of the city's life by the late 1900s. At every step of Miami Beach's rich history--from com...

Triangulations, and more precisely meshes, are at the heart of many problems relating to a wide variety of scientific disciplines, and in particular numerical simulations of all kinds of physical phenomena. In numerical simulations, the functional spaces of approximation used to search for solutions are defined from meshes, and in this sense these meshes play a fundamental role. This strong link between the meshes and functional spaces leads us to consider advanced simulation methods in wh...

There is freedom within the construct of our dreams. Sometimes that freedom is achieved from a journey through darkness, and at times, it is achieved through words that shape and form worlds within us. These stories are mere tales that represent a reality that is usually hidden within the fabric of our subconscious mind. Dream along with the tales that take form within you, give in to your imagination, let it guide you, and free your soul that is often caged between your reality and dreams...
