Vehicle Feedback and Driver Situation Awareness (9781472426581)

A potentially troubling aspect of modern vehicle design - some would argue - is a trend for isolating the driver and reducing vehicle feedback, usually in the name of comfort and refinement but increasingly because of automation. There is little doubt cars have become more civilised over the years, yet despite this, the consequences of driver behaviour remain to a large extent anecdotal. Readers will have heard such anecdotes for themselves. They usually take the form of drivers of a certain age recalling their first cars from the 1970s or 80s, in which "doing 70 mph really felt like it". The question is whether such anecdotes actually reflect a bigger, more significant issue that could be better understood. Related questions have been explored in other domains such as aviation, where the change to 'fly-by-wire' did indeed bring about some occasionally serious performance issues that were not anticipated. Despite some clear parallels, automotive systems have been left

Philosophy of Law: A Very Short Introduction (9780199687008)

The concept of law lies at the heart of our social and political life. Legal philosophy, or jurisprudence, explores the notion of law and its role in society, illuminating its meaning and its relation to the universal questions of justice, rights, and morality. In this Very Short Introduction Raymond Wacks analyses the nature and purpose of the legal system, and the practice by courts, lawyers, and judges. Wacks reveals the intriguing and challenging nature of legal philosophy with clarity and enthusiasm, providing an enlightening guide to the central questions of legal theory. In this revised edition Wacks makes a number of updates including new material on legal realism, changes to the approach to the analysis of law and legal theory, and updates to historical and anthropological jurisprudence. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to ge

The Signal in the Noise : Another Kind of Theism (9781502706423)

This brief text challenges readers who believe religious faith is "belief without evidence" to critically test their assumptions. In doing so, an alternative view of theism is presented in which religion and science not only coexist but can be meaningfully connected, and questions about God could have surprising new answers.The book covers four broad topics. First, throughout the history of the Church theologians have presented a view of religious faith that complements rather than contradicts science, but does contradict many assumptions about faith common today. This is illustrated via a series of quotations. Exposure to this fact is essential for both critics of religion and for believers wrestling with the nature of their faith. Second, the relationship between science and faith is explored. Third, I attempt to provide a working definition of God that goes beyond just complaining about atheistic straw men. Finally, the feasibility of theism in the face of well-known theol

Kolejny tom bestsellerowej serii Vadima Zelanda. Poświęcony jest rozpoznawaniu tego, czego pragnie dusza i wykorzystywaniu tej wiedzy do kształtowania swojego losu w optymalny sposób. Jak osiągnąć jedność duszy i umysłu? Usłyszałeś szelest porannych gwiazd – głos bez słów, zadumę bez myśli. Coś rozumiesz, lecz niejasno. Nie myślisz, tylko intuicyjnie wyczuwasz. Niewiele już Cię dzieli od stanu jedności duszy i umysłu – jasności bez słów, wiedzy bez wiary, pewności bez wahania. Niestety, dusza większości ludzi przekształciła się w przestraszoną, pozbawioną praw istotę, która wbiła się w kąt i ze smutkiem obserwuje, co wyprawia potworny umysł. Czasem zdarzają się chwile zgody duszy i umysłu. W takich momentach dusza śpiewa, a umysł z zadowoleniem zaciera ręce. Lecz zdarza się to bardzo rzadko. Wszystko dlatego, że na przestrzeni całej historii ludzkości została wykonana ogromna praca nastawiona na odizolowanie duszy od umysłu. Umysł wciąż doskonalił język swoich definicji, coraz bardziej
