Logic and Islam (Paperback)
Logic and Islam (Paperback)
In part II of this book series Logic and Islam, we answer the main question: can science prove that the Holy Quran is from Almighty God and has a divine origin? To answer this question, we gathered 77 scientific miracles from the Holy Quran. These miracles are scientific issues that have been revealed 1400 years ago and proven to be correct through our modern science and technology. We present each scientific issue from revelation and historical points of view, by comparing the year of its revelation with that of its discovery by modern science. The 77 scientific issues are grouped in six different categories: 1) astronomical issues, 2) earth science issues, 3) medical and biological issues, 4) animal and plant issues, 5) physics issues and 6) historical issues. By using the theory of probability, we demonstrate that the possibility to predict all 77 issues correctly by chance is quasi-zero. In other words, if a human being tried to predict the 77 issues correctly, they would need an

Leadership in the digital word (Paperback)
Leadership in the digital word (Paperback)
Digital technology is not only rapidly changing the world in which we live, it is also making it increasingly complex. In Leadership in the Digital World Ralf Knegtmans and Ylva Poelman explore the consequences of digitisation for organisations and the traits this requires in leaders. When they started working on the book, their perspectives were diametrically opposed. This makes their book a compelling search for answers that lie somewhere in the middle. As Managing Partner of a leading executive search firm, Knegtmans questions whether top business leaders are prepared for the huge impact digital technology will have on business and society. As an independent innovation consultant, Poelman adopts a different approach: this is not the first time humanity has had to adapt to major change. Those who were astute enough could have prepared for the digital revolution well in advance. Leadership in a Digital Age is a thorough quest into challenges all businesses will be facing, such as:

New Eyes on You (Paperback)
New Eyes on You (Paperback)
Do you want to know what someone is really thinking? Look no further than their facial expressions. The movements of our eyebrows, eyelids and the corners of our mouths betray information about our personality within minutes. Scientific research has shown that the face is, indeed, the mirror of the soul. All people present a basic repertoire of facial expressions that betray a lot about how they view life. This book will teach you which facial expressions belong to which behavioral styles. This prior knowledge will allow you to improve every conversation, at home and at work. Herman Ilgen has years of experience as a negotiator and a mediator. Working with the University of Amsterdam, he has been conducting research for over 12 years and developed the unique INSA Method that is now being used in a wide variety of settings by companies, government organizations and individual professionals.

What is truth? (Paperback)
What is truth? (Paperback)
What is truth? is a clear and comprehensive introduction to the Philosophy of Science, that will equally appeal to students of the Humanities, the Social Sciences and the Natural Sciences. With a solid footing in the history of classical philosophy, the book offers an in-depth discussion of Karl Popper, Thomas Kuhn, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jacques Derrida and Bruno Latour, among others. The book discusses recent developments in the Philosophy of Science, such as post-Kuhnian philosophy and the current interest in “objectivity”. According to Chunglin Kwa, there is not one rationality of science but several, each with its own logic and legitimate claim to truth. Six such styles of scientific reasoning can be established, pervading the sciences (including the humanities) in different combinations. The latter focus provides the book with an outstanding interdisciplinary outlook. Chunglin Kwa teaches at the University of Amsterdam. What is truth? is a translation of Wat is waarheid?, published

European Archaeology - Identities & Migrations (Paperback)
European Archaeology - Identities & Migrations (Paperback)
As it appears in diverse guises - and notably as a founding narrative - the past is at the core of every functioning human society. The idea that the past can be known through scientific research has long been a fundamental challenge for western societies and for European researchers, from all disciplines concerned. Through more than four decades of outward-looking archaeological practice, the scholar, teacher and intellectual Jean-Paul Demoule has elaborated a truly global approach to European cultures and their transformations, spanning from the social inequality in Neolithic times to Indo European research to contemporary links between heritage and politics. His colleagues - British, Bulgarians, Czechs, Danes, Dutch, French, Germans, North-Americans, Spaniards, Swiss and Russians - seek to extend and enrich his vision. With contributions (written in French and in English) spanning from prehistory to the modern world, they bring in this volume new insights and data to such issues as

Fotoboek Hebrides - Hebriden | Quercus Publishing
Fantastisch fotoboek over de Hebriden, met name over Harris en Lewis, de buiten Hebriden. Prachtige foto's, goede teksten en mooi uitgevoerd in een hardcover uitvoering.   THE PERFECT COMPANION TO PETER MAY'S LEWIS TRILOGY, AND A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY THROUGH THE HEBRIDEAN ISLANDS. The landscape of the Outer Hebrides, with its stark cliffs, ghostly mists and lonely beaches, has become a definitive character of Peter May's Lewis trilogy. In Hebrides, readers will accompany him on an odyssey in prose and images, through a history of the Vikings' 'Long Island' and his own deep personal connection with the islands that influenced his bestselling work. Travelling as if alongside his protagonist Fin Macleod, he describes the island life - as bewitching as it is treacherous - his encounter with the bird-hunters of Sula Sgeir, the savage seas of Ness and the churches of Eriskay. With extracts from the trilogy and specially commissioned photographs, this book places his writing and characters w…
