Man Designed Himself


Book Description

The author has identified misunderstandings by scientists in gene mutation, cell division and the essential role of the sun in all cell growth. The author explains, why each strand of DNA matches a unique wavelength of the sun. The role of the eye, neurons and nerves in passing energy to cells for growth. Why gene mutation is not a copying error but a routine natural process for survival. How plants adjust genes retrospectively in the autumn to survive better in the local climate. Why cancer tumours may be shrunk by dispersing the energy in a nerve with a needle. The author suggests the processes that enabled evolution from simple pond life to a highly intelligent man and concludes that man's design was achieved by his own effort. He designed himself!

Man Confronts Himself Alone


Book Description

In 1957, the Russians launched the first satellite into space, marking the first time a man-made object broke through nature’s limitations. In her iconic book The Human Condition, Hannah Arendt made the attempt to figure out the political implications of that seeming achievement. Her conclusion is that the astonishing scientific achievement of unprecedented control over terrestrial nature through the adoption of an outside-the-world “universal” perspective has shaped a prevailing mentality that sees the world, in which we have felt at home throughout history, as only optional. This has resulted in socioeconomic and political changes throughout modernity, ultimately reducing human ability to act politically. Many people today feel comfortable in a world shaped by science and technology. But Arendt warns us that there is hope for modern society if we can envision ways to make our active life worldly again. Mihaely’s examination of Arendt’s thoughts on science and politics stimulates the reader to rethink the authenticity of their freedom today.
