From the rear cover: "One of the most influential thinkers of Ancient Greece or any other era, Plato formed the basis of Western philosophy. Mostly written in the form of dialogues with his teacher Socrates as the protagonist, his works address themes as varied as metaphysics, psychology, pedagogy, politics, and ethics. Despite the weighty subject matter, Plato's writing remains accessible to the general reader, and infused with wit and humor. Why is Plato worth reading today? His dialogues are vitally concerned with how we should live. His arguments always have an engagement with life. He combines the logical rigor of a philosopher with the imagination and artistry of a poet. In short, despite the passage of thousands of years, Plato remains relevant and compelling.".

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The concept of a God has existed since an early part of man's history. And there are many religions which prescribe to the worship of God. A man appears on TV, in all the nations of the world introducing himself as a messenger of a group called the ascended beings. He says it was these beings who gave man religion to guide and control them as early humans were on a path of destruction. What started as a simple guide for life on Earth has spiralled uncontrollably into many different religions and sects. Religion is now one of the prime causes of division and conflict amongst the human race. However like all things the time has come for great change and it is time for humans to evolve into a higher state of consciousness. The angels want to remove religion and guide humanity's spiritual evolution to the next level. The date of Armageddon has been set 30 years in the future but the angels decide to speed it up because man's technological advancement has reached such a point that they are capable of destroying the whole planet before this can take place. But not everyone can make it.Some simply do not possess the mental and spiritual attributes to make that ascension and do not have a place in the new world.The mysterious man introduces a test. The Capability test. This determines whether you have the right mindset to enter into the kingdom of God. There are two options. Deny existence of God and go to Zion; a paradise. Or confess belief in God and go to Sheol; a city in Hell. This is announced on Halloween a night of all things unholy so many automatically think this is a trick. Follow the Ojo family in London, England as they prepare to make the greatest decision of their lives. The stage is set for the Ultimate Frontier and the time is now. What will you choose? Will you deny God and make it into heaven. Or believe in God and go straight to hell, the opposite of what religion teaches. Furthermore who's to prove the test is real in the first place. Free will is human's greatest gift and the time has come for each person to decide on their destiny. Will the test prove you are one of the chosen ones and have the guts to follow truth, order and reason?Or will it prove you operate on the lower vibrations of fear, lack the genes of the angels to decipher reality from fantasy and leave common sense and right reasoning for simple unconfirmed beliefs.The time for the humanity's greatest test is now. A messenger from a group of angels known as ascended beings, appears on TV and presents humanity with a test. The Capability Test will determine who has the mental attributes to enter a new kingdom on Earth. There are 2 options. Deny existence of God and go to Zion; a paradise. Or confess belief in God and go to Sheol; a city in Hell. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 420 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In February 2015, the world crazy over the colour of a dress! Sounds trivial doesn't it, but why was it so significant? Perhaps because it shows the differences between humans and that reality is not what we perceive it to be. Some people saw a black and blue dress while others saw a white and gold dress. How can people see two completely different sets of colours? I remember the frustration of trying to convince my colleagues at work that the dress was white and gold and they equally tried to make me believe it was black and blue. Which colours did you see? Could it be that there are bigger differences between us than we originally thought? After hundreds of thousands of years in our present state, could humans finally be on the verge of evolving into a different species? Could a genetic shift or something latent within us awaken superhuman powers making the rest of the human race slow, dumb and obsolete? The questions are endless, and in my view make a fantastic research and science fiction project. I have written a novel from this scenario called 'The White and Gold People'. There was a time when our early human ancestors (homo-sapiens) competed with Neanderthals. We were wiser, and stronger and they eventually became extinct around 30,000 years go. Natural selection is a key mechanism of evolution, and some scientists predict that different species will have evolved by 2050. It is said that humans are still only in their infancy when it comes to evolution there's a lot more weird and wacky mutations to come in the future. The biggest evolutionary changes have come from the brain such as abstract thinking and language. The eyes are one of our key sensory organs giving us sight. Generally most humans see things the same apart from conditions in eye such as short/long sightedness and colour blindness. The highly spiritual can see auras and spirits. Clairvoyants see things that are distant in time or space. The 'dress saga' lies in conjunction with the idea in quantum physics that what we see is actually far different from reality, and our perception can be different to someone else's. In the White and Gold People I explore these scenarios from the perspective of protagonist Laura Golding, a 21-year-old, attractive law student from UCLA. Laura is one of the people (15%) who see the dress in white and gold, while others see it in black and blue. Overnight the 'goldies' awaken their third eye giving them powers such as clairvoyance, teleportation, telepathy, remote viewing and superhuman strength, whereas the 'blueys' stay the same. When a video is uploaded of a goldy in America teleporting to Australia in a matter of seconds, tensions rise between the two groups and the blueys view them with contempt and fear. After the president is assassinated an International manhunt is started to capture all white and gold people. They are deemed a threat to the future of humanity and are taken into quarantine units to be tested like lab rats and have their powers weaponised by security agencies. Laura is identified as one of these people and learns to use her powers to evade capture. She finds other white and gold people who form an alliance to protect themselves from the blueys and government agencies but eventually war erupts between the two groups. The future of humanity will take a big leap into uncertainty as both groups fight for survival but one thing is for certain; the losers will cease to exist and the winners will be inhabitants of the New World.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 378 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The small moon of Danegeld Four is bustling with pirate activity, and mercenary Samantha Omleth is hired to investigate their activities. Her stake in the mission is personal; after her parents died when she was a child, she had been raised by the natives, the ansaxo, and it was when she was when she had returned to her birthplace of Earth as a teenager that they were almost wiped out by the pirates. Samantha quickly uncovers the hierarchy of the pirates, led by the robotic Thought Inbras. Among their number is Kauldus, the sadistic pirate who had originally killed Samantha's parents. She also discovers that the pirates are breeding extremely dangerous creatures with many strange properties called pheliapods, with intent of using them as weapons. Finally, Samantha finds an artificial intelligence based on her adoptive father and mentor, Elder Omleth, who tells her of what happened in the invasion, including the death of the real Elder Omleth. At first she wants to take revenge on the pirates but she is urged away by Elder Omleth, who is designed to keep the ansaxo alive and wants Samantha to continue the ansaxo legacy where it is safe. Before leaving, Samantha saves an infant pheliapod from torture, and the pheliapod starts to believe that Samantha is its mother. Samantha brings the pheliapod to Earth for further study, naming it Gertrude, and over the course of several days begins to bond with it. However, her feelings are complicated by the fact that pheliapods can artificially manipulate the emotions of others, and she knows Gertrude could well just be using her. The pirates strike back, with Kauldus brutalising Samantha. She would have killed Samantha if not for the timely arrival of Horatio Walker, Samantha's employer, but she escapes with Gertrude in tow. Despite her promise to her father and repeatedly being told not to bother saving Gertrude, Samantha returns to Danegeld Four again. She struggles with her own motives for returning, as Elder Omleth tries to drive her away and berates her for caring for the creatures that killed the ansaxo, while Gertrude manipulates her into trying to save her. Deciding that focusing on revenge is easier than making that choice, Samantha fights her way through the pirate ranks to Kauldus and after another brutal rematch she finally vanquishes Kauldus. With Thought Inbras holding Gertrude captive, Samantha goes to Thought Inbras' lair, who intends to use the pheliapods to make her all-powerful. Samantha is forced to suffer the same pain Gertrude suffers at Thought Inbras' hands, and finally confronts the pirate leader. The weight of the battles and injuries she has sustained almost kill Samantha, and it is only when Gertrude sacrifices its life to save Samantha that she escapes. Samantha, in a depressed state, meets with Elder Omleth again, who berates her for betraying the ansaxo. However, she realises that Elder Omleth is only an artificial intelligence with none of the real Elder Omleth's teachings. In a rage she destroys the AI and, in a dream state, earns Gertrude's forgiveness for abandoning it to chase Kauldus. Now deciding that the other pheliapods cannot suffer the same way Gertrude did, Samantha returns to Thought Inbras and finally triumphs, dismantling the pirate operation in full and saving the pheliapods. She leaves Danegeld Four for good, committing herself to protect the weak where she may find them and stop letting her past dictate her present, and following Elder Omleth's teachings rather than his memory.…
