The Globalization Conundrum—Dark Clouds behind the Silver Lining


Book Description

This book brings together experts from four continents (Asia, North America, Europe, Africa) and from varied disciplines to discuss a spectrum of problems created by globalization, such as the economic and financial, environmental, legal, cultural, socio-economic and social media impacts. The book not only examines the problems from a number of different perspectives, but also considers the impact of globalization in emerging nations around the world. Due to the very nature of these problems, the approaches adopted are both qualitative and quantitative; it includes quantitative research on quantum finance and the financial crisis, and also discussions on qualitative problems, such as cultural imperialism and neoliberalism. Of interest to economic researchers and management professionals, the book is also a valuable resource for social media researchers, environment scientists, and non-technical readers concerned with socio-political issues. This single volume offers a holistic view and therefore a more complete picture of the problems posed by globalization.

They are there, in 1955, to retrieve Walt Disney's infamous pen that once saved the parks as we know them. But like all things Disney, nothing is as it seems. The early days of the Tower of Terror, the origin of the Overtakers (Disney villains), and the real power of magic unfold in an unexpected series of events that propel both the Keepers and Disney itself into a darkness no one saw coming. Along the way, the Keepers visit Walt Disney's hilltop home, Disneyland's opening day and reception, and find themselves separated from friends sixty years away. The three Fairlies, young women in Disney's School of Imagineering, girls with astonishing powers of their own, have unmasked a long-buried secret that threatens the lives of their friends as well as everything Walt Disney worked for.

From Imaginary Oxymora to Real Polarities and Return


Book Description

Professor Dhanjoo Ghista about the Book The author has done admirable work to develop the concept of Microvita and its synthesis, from the medieval question of whether there are 'universalia ante res' impinging on our destiny and fortune, to a model of the atomic nucleus, onto how Devayonis and Pretayonis can be produced pairwise or apart by the action of the neutral and the positive or negative creation operator respectively. Thereafter, we learn how imperialism, together with its different forms, such as capitalism and nationalism, all have one psychological base. This comes about through diminishing the interest for the sublime and enhancing the interest for material goods. Thereafter, we journey from Microvita network formation (clustering, representation, synchronisation and coherency), to Microvita in the context of the Neo-Leibnizian World Model and quantum monadology, whereby consciousness should not be interpreted by our daily experiences, but as an introspectively realized state. Finally, we recognize how Microvita give rise to what is known (in Sanskrit) as advaetadvaeta'dvaetava'da, meaning non-dualistic dualistic non-dualism: Non-dualism from dusk to dawn, dualism only in the daytime of existence.




The Return

When she's back in a human body, she has no memory of her life as Shari Cooper or of the afterlife. Little does she know, not remembering keeps her safe. Because if the group of people on Earth who know about Wanderers--and view them as dangerously unnatural--found out about her, Shari could face a fate worse than death."--Provided by publisher.
