  • Our Worst Strength

  • The Only Authentic Book of Persuasion: The Agenda-Spin Method 7th Edition

    by Richard E. Vatz, Ph.D.
    Man and woman are the persuading animals. There is no overriding issue more important in most people's daily life, life's pleasures and all of political matters than persuasion. Many, if not most, matters are largely wholly related to persuasion, defined in this work on the Agenda-Spin theory, as the struggle of people to determine for their chosen audiences: 1. What we talk about and 2. What it means. Persuasion is not the only determinant in life, and there are some matters mostly out... more
  • For Love of Country

    by Norman W. Holden

Paine insisted that British rule was directly responsible for nearly every problem in colonial society. Paine’s political views and his fellow revolutionaries’ act... more

  • Models, Metaphors, and Intuition: How we think, learn and communicate

    by Michael Ruhl Frank

    How does our subconscious / conscious, mind / brain system work? How does it effect us? And why is it important to understand? My goal in this writing is to promote social consciousness and increase awareness and understanding of the “human condition” that we all share, and that ultimately binds us all in our future, and our fate. I endeavor to pursue that goal with a series of discussions on how we think, how we learn, and how we communicate against the backdrop of our own indivi... more

    by Dr. Pedro A. Gonzalez Jr.
    When AI benefits both humans and machines, it can be considered a symbiont, or when AI benefits only machines at the expense of humans, it can be regarded as a parasite. However, when AI is used to benefit only machines at the expense of humans, it can be considered a parasite. Similarly, AI can be viewed as a parasite if used to manipulate or control human behavior. It’s worth noting that the relationship between humans and AI is not always clear-cut, and there are often shades of gray between ... more
  • Rethinking Money and Finance: Economics, Morality and Common Sense

  • A Secret I Can't Tell

    by Joe Gantz
