  • The World According To Good Gods: Explore novel ideas on chaos and creation. Embrace new insights into philosophy of mind and nature, purpose driven life, happiness, love, education and evolution.

    Greg Oliver

    eBook
    Is there something important missing in your life?Are you experiencing anxiety about your future?Do you often query whether there is a God?Do you often ponder what the meaning of your life actually is?Do you sincerely think that you have a really good education? In any case, do you know beyond any doubt what a truly good education is?Do you relate to any of these questions? If yes, then you must read this book. It will provide you with a roadmap of solutions to many (if not all!) problems in your life."The World According To Good Gods" consists of six separate parts:Part one deals with various subjects like: genesis of all existence, chaos, good and evil, natural ethical principles, science and laws of nature.Part two is about important characteristics of natural and man-made laws and cognitive optimism.Part three talks about natural personal identity, various social aspects of our happiness, gender balance, metaphysics of culture and disintegration of the spirit.Part four is dedicated to such topics as the concept of ‘satan’, dogmatic systems and the spiritual evolution of the human race.Part five is titled: “Myths, happiness and the sense of life”. It deals with the general theory of happiness. It makes blatantly obvious that being happy is the combined summation of all reasons why we exist.Part six explains what the top quality, free and universal system of education and upbringing actually is.This is a book for truth seekers. And it is - for the most part - aimed at people who possess a broad-spectrum academic knowledge. In essence, it is an intellectually engaging textbook, which offers a novel approach to Scientific Naturalism. And so, it is not intended for people with limiting religious views or for those who are harbouring various modern-day dogmatic beliefs.By engaging with religious writers and dogmatics of the past and our modern times, Greg Oliver explains that making sense of human existence is simply impossible without the powerful Reason of modern Science. Things like goodness, happiness, rationality, truth, beauty and life itself, simply cannot be understood as they really are, without the knowledge and the critical way of thinking, which modern sciences offer.In the best tradition of the history’s most brilliant philosophers, scientists, sceptics and freethinking writers, Greg explains how we can make actual sense of our existence and find true happiness by rejecting religious faith and dogmas, and instead, accept the Reason of modern Science.It is a comprehensive and well-researched book, which contains many new theses. That's why you do not need to just read this book. You need to put the book down for a time and then come back to it again, instead of reading it at once from the beginning to the end. In other words, you need to take your time and digest it slowly...Grab your copy of this great book now.Enjoy!* * * * *

  • London Buses

    Oliver Green

    eBook (Amberley Publishing, Sept. 15, 2019)
    "The bright red double-decker bus has become an icon of London. It is now a unique and instantly recognisable international symbol of Britain’s capital city. But its origins go back nearly 200 years to a quite different single-deck vehicle. This was George Shillibeer’s Omnibus, which he first put on the streets in 1829. A reliable motor bus, the B-type, first appeared in 1910, and had replaced all the city’s horse buses by 1914. A succession of ever-improving buses followed. The final design for London Transport was the classic Routemaster (RM), introduced in the late 1950s and not finally retired from normal service until 2005. By this time London’s modern buses were essentially almost identical to buses everywhere else.However, in 2010 the Mayor of London held a competition to find a distinctive successor to the RM. The winning design by Thomas Heatherwick Associates, built by Wrightbus, was launched in 2012. The New Routemaster combines the curved elegance and comfort of the original RM with essential modern features such as low floor access and a hybrid diesel-electric drive unit.This book is part of the Britain’s Heritage series, which provides definitive introductions to the riches of Britain’s past, and is the perfect way to get acquainted with London buses in all their variety."
  • Facts Still Can't Speak For Themselves: Reveal the Stories That Give Facts Their Meaning Second Edition

    Oliver

    Paperback (Wolters Kluwer, Sept. 11, 2015)
    Today, most trial lawyers and consultants accept the fact that all legal decision makers decide cases by first making up their own version of the case story. Yet, few have yet to fully adjust their practices to meet the demands of that reality. Facts Still Can't Speak for Themselves offers specific methods for trial professionals to increase their reach into the full range of potential stories decision makers can construct (and will construct) during any single case, and then shows you how to refine those stories into the one most compelling presentation for any legal decision maker to judge, in any legal decision-making venue. What you'll find inside: How the stories decision makers imagine affect verdicts as much as their backgrounds and beliefs or the attorney's presentation in court Which focus group method reveals the real range of stories decision makers can build from your case How to profitably apply focus group results in negotiations and mediation equally well as in trials How to run voir dire like a focus group (and a focus group like voir dire) improving both in the process and how to avoid common misleading mistakes How focus group deliberations are the least valuable part of the process How asking focus group participants which side in a case they ""like"" could be a major mistake Why you should think twice before ever again asking a ""why"" question or using the word ""any"" during voir dire or in focus groups How to establish immediate rapport with decision makers and to manage how they build their perceptions of your client's case story in time to affect their final judgments In this new edition, Eric Oliver dives deeply into cutting-edge research in communication, human judgment, perception, and influence and breaks down the process of turning theoretical abstractions into effective persuasive practices that help legal decision makers hear and see the case story from your client's point of view. Each chapter is now supplemented with some of the most relevant developments in the science of decision making, as well as with the decade of additional experience Eric has acquired working with trial lawyers and their clients since the first edition was published in 2005.
