Book Description
Reality is not as is, but as interpreted. Humans are caged, not freed, by the logic of own thought that conceals everyone behind own egocentric self. Emotions and intuition are created by magic, golden irrational that is ratio and balance. The irrational separates number from magnitude, while this magnitude cannot be found. The logical, rational thought, as the sole expression of our civilization, starts from somewhere, follows a logical path, and ends with a conclusion because all ideas have an end in themselves. How close to this conclusion, or end are we? Is the rational world only a distorted projection of the irrational world? Does civilization make sense only for a linear mind?

The Englishman from Lebedian
Author: Jae Curtis
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781618114853
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
After Evgeny Zamiatin emigrated from the USSR in 1931, he was systematically airbrushed out of Soviet literary history, despite the central role he had played in the cultural life of Russia’s northern capital for nearly twenty years. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, his writings have gradually been rediscovered in Russia, but with his archives scattered between Russia, France, and the USA, the project of reconstructing the story of his life has been a complex task. This book, the first full biography of Zamiatin in any language, draws upon his extensive correspondence and other documents in order to provide an account of his life which explores his intimate preoccupations, as well as uncovering the political and cultural background to many of his works. It reveals a man of strong will and high principles, who negotiated the political dilemmas of his day—including his relationship with Stalin—with great shrewdness.

And Now My Soul Is Hardened
Author: Alan M. Ball
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520206940
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
Warfare, epidemics, and famine left millions of Soviet children homeless during the 1920s. Many became beggars, prostitutes, and thieves, and were denizens of both secluded underworld haunts and bustling train stations. Alan Ball's study of these abandoned children examines their lives and the strategies the government used to remove them from the streets lest they threaten plans to mold a new socialist generation. The "rehabilitation" of these youths and the results years later are an important lesson in Soviet history.

Stalin Waiting for ... the Truth!
Author: Grover Furr
Publisher: Red Star Publishers
ISBN: 9780578445533
Category : Historiography
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
In October 2017 Stephen Kotkin, professor of history at Princeton University, published "Stalin. Waiting for Hitler, 1929 - 1941." In it, Kotkin accuses Soviet leader Joseph Stalin of dozens of terrible crimes and atrocities.The appearance of Kotkin's scholarship is daunting: 909 pages of text, more than 5200 footnotes, and 47 pages of bibliography in tiny, triple-column type. But Grover Furr has carefully and methodically studied every one of the hundreds of allegations of atrocity, crime, and misdeeds of any kind that Kotkin attributes to Stalin and his closest advisers. Furr has checked every reference, every article and book, that Kotkin cites as evidence. The result: Furr has found that every single "crime" Kotkin alleges is false - a fabrication. Not a single accusation holds up. On the evidence, Stalin committed NO crime, no atrocities - for if he had, Kotkin would surely have uncovered at least one. Furr's exhaustive research shows that Soviet history of the 1930s, has been falsified. Furr's book is a model of meticulous examination of evidence and careful, objective analysis and deduction."Stalin. Waiting For ... The Truth" exposes the lies and falsehoods behind Soviet history of the 1930s with the same meticulous attention to detail as his previous works: "Khrushchev Lied" (2011), "The Murder of Sergei Kirov" (2013), "Blood Lies" (2014), "Trotsky's 'Amalgams'" (2015), "Yezhov vs. Stalin" (2016), "Leon Trotsky's Collaboration with Germany and Japan" (2017), and "The Mystery of the Katyn Massacre; The Evidence, The Solution" (2018).

Roadmap to Reality
Author: Thomas J. Elpel
Publisher: HOPS Press
ISBN: 1892784297
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 1
Book Description
What if our entire experience of reality were based on an assumption that could be proven false? In Roadmap to Reality, Thomas J. Elpel tests the assumption that we are a sentient (self-aware) species, and finds evidence suggesting otherwise. Like automatons, we copy beliefs and behaviors from generation to generation without consciously evaluating why we do what we do. We absorb a definition of reality and act on it, without ever questioning the source of that definition. In short, we don't act; we react. Roadmap to Reality is the quest to unravel the illusions to discover what reality really is. The journey follows the link between technology and thought, showing how hunter-gatherer, agricultural, industrial, and informational societies define reality in predictable ways. In essence, production technology dictates how we perceive cause and effect, how we solve problems, and how we approach parenting and governing. Roadmap to Reality sequentially follows simple ideas and commonsense logic to reveal how consciousness and worldviews evolve in layers over time. Roadmap to Reality enables the reader to step outside of ordinary reality to obtain a fresh perspective on culture, government, prosperity, sustainability, and meaning. The quest takes the reader to the ends of the universe with a casual writing style, peeling back the layers of consciousness to discover the reality beyond. Roadmap to Reality will change your perspective of history and world events, and it will change you, enabling you to let go of preconceived notions about the nature of reality to discover a more holistic, more satisfying life experience.
