Social Consciousness

Ewolucja człowieka a w szczególności jego umysłu jest jedną z największych zagadek natury. Koncepcja inteligencji makiawelicznej wyjaśnia w jaki sposób złożoność życia społecznego doprowadziła do powstania tak złożonego mózgu jakim obecnie dysponujemy.

Changing our relationship to the afterlife will transform our relationship to this world.

Until very recently, no society had seen marriage as anything other than a conjugal partnership: a male-female union. What Is Marriage? identifies and defends the reasons for this historic consensus and shows why redefining civil marriage as something other than the conjugal union of husband and wife is a mistake.

هذا الكتاب يعتبر صغيراً في الحجم إلا أنه كان وافياً ليغطي إجابات كافة الأسئلة المحورية التي يطرحها الكاتب عبد اللطيف الصديقي. ومن أبرز هذه الأسئلة التي يتطرق إليها في الكتاب هي: هل كان الدين مسألة أساسية ومهمة في فكر آينشتاين الفيزيائي الكبير؟ وهل كان آينشتاين متديناً بالمعنى الشائع لهذه الكلمة؟ بمعنى: هل كان ممارساّ للطقوس الدينية؟. وفي إجابة عن السؤال الأول قدم الصديقي العديد من المعطيات التي تظهر أن آينشتاين كانت له خلفية دينية عميقة، ولكن بالمعنى ال.
