This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What simple practice could reduce fatal medical errors? Do juries make sense if the goal of criminal justice is to discover the truth? What are the alternatives? What kind of health studies should be taken seriously and what kinds should not? In this compendium of short, entertaining essays, Austad answers these very practical questions and others. Do we really become more foolish with age? Is there a limit to how long humans can live? He answers big questions you may not have known you had. What makes up the 95 percent of our universe that we can’t see? Why do we think “natural” means good for us? He also provides tips on everyday living: how to survive a shark attack, how painful is a fire ant sting, and why opossums make poor pets.

Your questions are answered, and more intriguing questions raised. This is a book that will keep you awake at night . . . lost in thought.

Download or read book The Generic Book written by Gregory N. Carlson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1995-08 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an attempt to address the theoretical gap between linguistics and philosophy, a group of semanticists, calling itself the Generic Group, has worked to develop a common view of genericity. Their research has resulted in this book, which consists of a substantive introduction and eleven original articles on important aspects of the interpretation of generic expressions. The introduction provides a clear overview of the issues and synthesizes the major analytical approaches to them. Taken together, the papers that follow reflect the current state of the art in the semantics of generics, and afford insight into various generic phenomena.

His mother also mysteriously abandoned him. But Dolby rises to discover that he has unmatched worth and ability as a half-tail--one who can communicate with whitetail deer. They were always his favorite animal, but now they are his friends--friends who introduce him to the Windmaster and challenge him to view God differently. Because of his unique gift, Dolby is thrust into the middle of a great mystery where his hometown's growing deer population looks to him for protection against an unknown enemy. He partners with deer, two new friends, local farmers, and law enforcement to face this threat. Will he rise to the occasion and save his friends? Will he realize along the way that he, too, needs saving?
