"In a world suffocated by people and things, this book exposes why we throwaway things that still work, and shows how we can design products, services, and experiences that last"--

The arguments of this essay cover three broadly related topics. The first is concerned with ontological thinking as it has evolved over the last 900 years under the pressure of scientific and technological development.This historical sketch provides the background and context for a re-examination, in the second part, of the nature of conceptual thinking, intuition, the role of heuristic modelling, the function of language, and the fallibility of the human mind, and, in the third, of the interiority of human experience, subjectivity, self-awareness, personal identity, jeopardy, autonomy, and freedom.By re-analyzing these concepts, we can hope to create better maps of the complex inter-dependencies between the structures of conceptual thinking and the experience of an inner life that determine the human condition.

The single most important book to read before you vote in the 2020 election.What would Abraham Lincoln or John Fitzgerald Kennedy say, if they were alive, about the current situation in America? Would they feel defeated? You can be sure of that. Because today's situation in America represents everything that they fought against and for which, finally, they paid with their lives. They could not help wondering to what extent have the Americans lost all the attributes that the founding fathers based their ideals on. Above all, the spirit of freedom and independence, as well as the personal courage of the vast majority of Americans. Where it all disappeared? We will try, among other things, to provide an answer to this question in this handbook. The One Square Mile we are writing about did everything to make the situation in America exactly as it is today.

How can we integrate the scientific image of the world with our own experience of existence, without compromising either?How can the macro-scale events of cosmology, biological evolution and cultural acquisition, which are evolving through time and have a history and a memory, be the same thing as the micro-scale events described by physics and chemistry, which remain constant, without either history or memory?For philosophical monism to be plausible, systems at different scales must have different ordering principles. There must be asymmetries between them, so that the evolving systems at the macro-scale can co-exist with the constant systems at the micro-scale.

Topos theory provides an important setting and language for much of mathematical logic and set theory. This book presents a convenient and natural solution to the treatment of geometric morphisms in this setting and shows how this may be applied to topics such as the relative Giraud theorem.
