Astrology: A New Scientific Perspective is not a horoscope book. It is a radical reconstruction of astrology as a testable, falsifiable timing science grounded in systems theory, complexity science, information theory, and modern data analytics. Rejecting superstition, mysticism, and deterministic claims, Prince Gharios El Chemor reframes astrology as a probabilistic model of temporal modulation. In this groundbreaking work, planets are not forces, but geometric reference points. Fate is replaced by probability. Belief is replaced by methodology. Drawing on neuroscience, nonlinear dynamics,...

But a growing body of evidence suggests something very different. In this book, award-winning author Stephen Hawley Martin presents a compelling case that the dominant scientific worldview may be fundamentally incomplete—and that consciousness may not arise from matter at all. A Challenge to One of Science’s Deepest Assumptions Drawing on decades of research and firsthand experience, Martin examines a series of well-documented ...

His ideas on group dynamics, leadership, action research, and environmental influence continue to shape everything from therapy and education to social action and organisational change. This concise yet powerful ...

Pioneers of Human Behaviour: Hans Selye A Gateway to His Life, Discoveries, and Legacy Before stress became a word for deadlines, burnout, sleepless nights, and modern overload, Hans Selye saw it inside the body.

Academia has produced many motivational theories. Most are well thought, and subsequent research has supported their usefulness and validity. One concern with theses theories, however, is the fact that they were mostly developed in academia using interviews, surveys, or controlled subject groups made up of students or paid participants. Often times, real world application is not part of this process. This eBook examines the gap between academia and the real world. It describes major seven motivational theories and applies them to situations in organizations. Using the examples provided, ...

Pioneers of Human Behaviour: Mary Whiton Calkins A Gateway to Her Life, Theories, and Legacy Mary Whiton Calkins was one of the most important early figures in American psychology — and one of the clearest examples of brilliance denied its proper recognition.

Yet Harvard refused to grant her the degree she had earned. This concise yet ...

This Kindle document is the culmination of a three month action research (AR) project. It was undertaken with the purpose of getting the unheard voice heard in a writing and dialogue group in the Northeast. This work describes the transformation of the group in that three month time span under which the study took place. AR utilizes a four cycle process of discovery, measurable action, reflection, and action, in order to strategically work towards a goal with data constantly informing decisions. It is these qualities of AR that make it ideal for social justice and educational equity work. ...

Whether showing how fractal designs underlie nature’s most efficient forms, detailing “forbidden” crystal structures once declared impossible, or examining ...

What if the UFO phenomenon isn’t extraterrestrial at all—but something far stranger? For decades, researchers and experiencers alike have tried to explain the enigma of UFOs, UAPs, and alien abductions through the lens of interstellar visitors. But what if that explanation is not only incomplete—it’s fundamentally wrong? The Metaterrestrial Hypothesis: Beyond Aliens, Beyond Us dares to ask the unaskable: What if the intelligence behind these encounters doesn’t come from another planet… but from another order of reality entirely? Drawing on eyewitness accounts, ancient mythology,...

What science has gotten so shamefully wrong about women, and the fight, by both female and male scientists, to rewrite what we thought we knew For hundreds of years it was common sense: women were the inferior sex. Their bodies were weaker, their minds feebler, their role subservient. No less a...

Hallucinated citations that survived review. Confidentiality breaches that didn't surface until the bar complaint. Malpractice exposure building invisibly, one unexamined AI output at a time. These aren't hypothetical. They're already happening to lawyers who adopted AI without a framework. And the lawyers who made those mistakes weren't careless—they were experienced, diligent, and trying to keep up.
