Book Description
This poor but precious civilization of ours could yet be rescued from what may appear to many, more and more often, the accelerating onrush of apocalyptic doom. This civilization could be saved--if we earn that. If we are not all to drown, your neighbor too, must learn now to swim. What therefore did you urgently need to know, which I had either neglected to tell you, or, perhaps, had not said clearly enough? What did you require most urgently, that you might rescue us from your neighbor’s folly? A grander strategic perspective, a more alluring set of programs of economic reconstruction? I thought that was not where my omission lay. What your neighbor required, most urgently, was not instruction on what to think, but remedial assistance in the matter of how to think. One must never make apology for saying even unpleasant things which are needed, most urgently, to be said. One need not apologize for saying that as well as possible--if no one else were saying it better. I wish devoutly it were better; but nonetheless, it had been better said than not. Now, my friends have elected, very kindly, to reissue these three published philosophical writings together, in a single volume. May it enrich you and so give you pleasure. I can do no better but share with you something slightly better than that which I have to give. --Lyndon Larouche

The Heresy of Heresies
Author: Timothy M. Mosteller
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725255731
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
“The heresy of heresies was common sense.” —George Orwell, 1984. This book is a defense of common-sense realism, which is the greatest heresy of our time. Following common-sense philosophers like Thomas Aquinas, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, Dallas Willard, and J. P. Moreland, this book defends a common-sense vision of reality within the Christian tradition. Mosteller shows how common-sense realism is more reasonable than the materialist, idealist, pragmatist, existentialist, and relativist spirits of our age. It maintains that we can know the nature of reality through common-sense experience and that this knowledge has profound implication for living the good life and being a good person.

A Manual on the Rudiments of Tuning and Registration: Introduction and human singing voice
Author:
Publisher: Schiller Institute, Incorporated
ISBN:
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
This manual is designed to provide teachers and students of music with a ready reference on the elementary aspects of Classical well-tempered tuning and voice registrations of singers and instruments. It grew out of a collaborative project launched by American statesman and economist Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr., with the intermediate aim of reestablishing a working grasp of the principles Classical polyphonic composition as exemplified in the works of J.S. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, and Brahms; and with the ultimate aim of applying those principles to spark a new Classical renaissance which can lift mankind out of the cultural rubble of twentieth-century Romanticism and Modernism. Book I is primarily concerned with introducing the student to the rudiments of Classical musical science, and demonstrates the primacy of the human bel canto singing voice and its biologically-determined registration for all rigorously creative musical composition. As LaRouche states in the foreword, "The vocalization of Classical poetry, according to elementary bel canto principles of vocalization, is song. The participation of singers representing two or more of the biologically determined species of singing voices (soprano, tenor, etc.), is the essence of Classical well-tempered polyphony. Book II (in preparation) will deal with the application of vocal-polyphonic principles to musical instruments, and will provide a series of technical appendices.

Science under Fire
Author: Andrew Jewett
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674987918
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Americans have long been suspicious of experts and elites. This new history explains why so many have believed that science has the power to corrupt American culture. Americans today are often skeptical of scientific authority. Many conservatives dismiss climate change and Darwinism as liberal fictions, arguing that “tenured radicals” have coopted the sciences and other disciplines. Some progressives, especially in the universities, worry that science’s celebration of objectivity and neutrality masks its attachment to Eurocentric and patriarchal values. As we grapple with the implications of climate change and revolutions in fields from biotechnology to robotics to computing, it is crucial to understand how scientific authority functions—and where it has run up against political and cultural barriers. Science under Fire reconstructs a century of battles over the cultural implications of science in the United States. Andrew Jewett reveals a persistent current of criticism which maintains that scientists have injected faulty social philosophies into the nation’s bloodstream under the cover of neutrality. This charge of corruption has taken many forms and appeared among critics with a wide range of social, political, and theological views, but common to all is the argument that an ideologically compromised science has produced an array of social ills. Jewett shows that this suspicion of science has been a major force in American politics and culture by tracking its development, varied expressions, and potent consequences since the 1920s. Looking at today’s battles over science, Jewett argues that citizens and leaders must steer a course between, on the one hand, the naïve image of science as a pristine, value-neutral form of knowledge, and, on the other, the assumption that scientists’ claims are merely ideologies masquerading as truths.
