This is particularly obvious in Sagittarius. The Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae are the easit to spot, despite the fact that they can commonly just be seen well with optics or a little telescope. Both of these nebulae contain districts where star arrangement is effectively occurring.

This thought was additionally improved by the option of Aristotle's thoughts on rehearsing great propensities and perspectives in youngsters. John Amos Komensky (Comenius) in the sixteenth Century, communicated thoughts of youngster focused training: he accepted kids ought to learn by tactile encounters through exercises built inside their regular habitat. He worried on the youngster's requirement for affection and Security and the job of a mother as an instructor in the ‘home based' youth training. (Dudek.M, 1996, pp30-39) Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) further shows that nothing ought to be constrained on the kid. He proposes techniques for dynamic learning through understanding and the happiness regarding fill in as ‘play'.â€Å"Work or play is each of the one to him, his games are his work, and he knows no difference.† - Rousseau-The four phases of a youngster's advancement portrayed by him are as follows:Infancy †uncovers propensities and the encircling of emotionsChildhood †uncovers need and preparing of sensesBoyhood †uncovers utility and the preparation of the intellectAdolescence †uncovers mortalityOf these preparation feelings and the faculties was focused on just in youth instruction. Fredrich Froebel (1782-1827) accepted that the adolescence is a period with its own advantages, qualities and inventiveness and recognizes ‘Play' as the particular action. He set up the pre-educational system ‘Kindergarten' with the accentuation on ‘Free Play' and youngster's opportunity. (Dudek.M, 1996, p51) Fig.2.01: Freidrich Froebel and his kindergarten instruments known as ‘Froebel's endowments' being used with kids. Educationist Maria Montessori (1870-1952) concentrated on the need of tactile learning, aptitude improvement, the utilization of materials and agreeable study hall conditions for kids in contrast with Kindergarten technique, the Montessori Method concentrates more towards the proficiency and speed in preparing kids to draw in with formal learning. (Dudek.M, 1996, p.58) Fig.2.02: Maria Montessori and pre-younger students Clinicians, for example, Wellman and Piaget during the twentieth century found that knowledge levels of youngsters can be controlled by natural encounters, for example, pre-tutoring. Additionally objected thoughts of fixed insight and foreordained turn of events.

Specialists on youngster brain science and instruction help to classify different early instructive projects. The administration of Pre-school instruction in Sri Lanka can be recognized under three essential sectors:State part †Managed under the Departments of Social Services, Fisheries, Women's Affairs and Protection and kid care, Local Government etc.Voluntary Organizations †Sarvodaya, Mahila Samithi, Religious Organizations, Samurdhi Movement, and Social Welfare Trust Organization (Pre-schools in the Estate Sector)Private Sector †Private Educational Organizations or people (Mostly Montessori System Adopted)The two key frameworks of early training in Sri Lanka are:Nursery ; Kindergarten MethodMontessori Method (Palihakkara, D.W., Premaratne, R.M. 2004, pp54-57).The Nursery and kindergarten technique is a mix of the Nursery and Kindergarten frameworks as of now rehearsed in Sri Lanka.KindergartenThis framework centers a kid focused methodology which turned into the motivation for present day pre-school training.

Its destinations are:Child socialization and the utilization of Fantasy Play †advances tangible engine and enthusiastic development.Attachment among instructor and youngster †brings out fearlessness, security and suddenness inside the child.Creating a gaining situation liberated from limitations and directionsEstablishment of good parental relations(Palihakkara, D.W., Premaratne, R.M. 2004, p38.)

Nursery schools limit each gathering to a limit of twenty understudies with at least two instructors to keep up great kid Teacher relationship where the educator is just a guide, choosing music, materials for play conversation or craftsmanship activities. MontessoriAn early training framework that joins both the mental ideas and scholarly procedures was set up by Maria Montessori. She put stock in making a center situation dependent on adoration, care, co-activity, tolerance, poise and obligation to be the principle highlight of the framework. The framework points ability improvement of youngsters through exercises such as:Practical life practices and word related aptitudes †Ex.

Dream Play of the Kindergarten has been subbed in the Montessori framework by the sorted out exercises that add to self-restraint and the course of work.‘Learning through Play' MethodAs Friedrich Froebel accepts ‘play' as the most particular movement of youngsters. Aside from carrying delight to the kid, ‘play' additionally brings out the inborn soul that kids have which represents the character of every person. (Dudek M. 1996, p.47) Research on human conduct has uncovered that kids gain proficiently from ‘seemingly-irregular' play as from the conventional homeroom. Play gives youngsters the chance of firsthand understanding to find things through investigation: it persuades them to face challenges and difficulties to investigate the world further. (McConnell.J, 1989) Piaget depicts the essential sorts of play a kid advances through in his/her formative stages as Pre-Social and Social play.Pre-Social Play: The newborn child take on play with hands, feet, ringers, clatters and dolls at six months.Social Play: Is a progressively mind boggling and social in character as it happens with both individual and physical development.Category 1: Social play is comparable to the movement, such as:Free Play: The fundamental sort of social play that includes physical play exercises with other kids.

Family Aspects Of Mary Shelley s Frankenstein

Family aspect in Frankenstein The family aspect in the Frankenstein is a strong theme that has been developed and challenged in the novel. The novel places weight in the role of parents within a family with parents having the role of protecting their children. For instance, Victor’s father is identified to protect him with different scenarios that are causing harm to him in addition to the happy upbringing filled with father’s affection. No human being could have passed a happier childhood than myself. My parents were possessed by the very spirit of kindness and indulgence† (Shelley 23). Meanwhile, his family friends have surrounded the young man as they are in need to see his success. Through the traditional notions of attaining a stronger family, commitment, time, coping ability, spiritual wellness, appreciation, and communication are the most essential aspects (Westheimer and Yogada 24-29). However, Frankenstein has revealed more breaking up of ties between family members and friends charac terized by non-commitment, no time for family members, and lack of unity as well as, poor sexual relations revealed by Victor. Frankenstein has challenged the family concept against the traditional notions as we see; the home has been the place where refuge can be found.

Nursing Australian Diabetes Society

Question: Discuss about the Nursingfor Australian Diabetes Society. Answer: Introduction In Australia patients that have been diagnosed with diabetes are a proximately one million with over 130 000 patients diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 2014). The more number of patients diagnosed with diabetes has placed Australia at number 7 with the highest prevalence in the world and 6th with the highest incident of type 1 diabetes. Of this population nearly 10-15 % diabetes patient undergoes surgical operation with high risk of complications, mortality rate and even long hospitalization. This, therefore, necessitates peri-operative management of these diabetes patients to reduce any risk associate with surgery. Peri-operative management include health care or management practices offered to diabetes patient before or after surgery operations (Australian Diabetes Society, 2014). The main focuses of this paper is on pre-operative and post-operative management of diabetes patients considering best nursing practices to reduce risk among pati ents. Background of the Research Question The most ultimate question that clearly emerges is that what are the best nursing practices in the managing patient with diabetes in the peri-operative settings? The above question remain unanswered since it is estimated that the rate of complication and mortality rate of patients with diabetes is 5 times greater among diabetic patients as compared to patients with other diseases who undergoes surgical operation. Some of the chronic complications cited include: microangiopathy, nephropathy and macroangiopathy. There is also surgical complication resulting from infection and vasculopathies. Studies show that infections from post operation complications account for 66% of complications (Frisch, A., Chandra, P., Smiley, D., et al. 2010). The greater percentage of post-operative infections commonly includes impairment of leukocyte function such as changed chemotaxis and phagocytytic activity. Patients with cardiac surgery often have myocardial ischemia. The research question therefore fo cuses pre- operative and post operative management of diabetic patient, the researcher is allocated to peri operative ward which is combination of both pre and post operative management (Varadhan, K. Neal KR, Dejong, H. et al. 2010). There are some suggested peri-operative management practices for diabetes patients to reduce risk of post-operative infections and complications. Control of glycaemia, pre-operative assessment and proper insulin use are some of preoperative management (Dhatariya K, Levy N, Kilvert A, et al. 2012). Firstly, pre-operative assessment is important where the nurse may obtain support from anaesthetist or a diabetes specialized nurse. Studies suggest that pre-operative assessment help identify the required care during surgery operations. Secondly, control of glycaemia has been seen as the best method to reduce the post surgery mortality rate among diabetes patients. The only alternative question that presents itself is that what is the safely level of glycaemia that need to be maintained? This question result from different conflicting data presented by different researchers. The second alternative question is that how tight the glycaemia should be controlled? This is because tight control of glycaemia also results in hypoglycaemia. Control of glycaemia continues to the post-operative management since there is need to return the blood glucose level back to the normal without risking the life of diabetic patient (Duncan, E. and Soltesz, E. et al. 2010). Clinical Practices for Peri-Operative Management According to Australian Diabetes Society (2014), one of the pre-operative management strategies is tight control of glyceamia. The matter of concern is the cost of tight glycemic control since its side effect has been severe hypoglycemia. There are minimal episodes of hypoglycemia in diabetes patients treated with analogue insulin though the cost is higher limiting majority of patients. According to International Diabetes Federation (IDF) (2013), the standard of care for diabetes includes balancing the hypoglycemia risk requires maintenance of glyceamia to 80-150 mg/dL. Therefore the main goal of pre-operative management is to achieve outcome similar to patient without diabetes. However, Varadhan, K. Neal KR, Dejong, H. et al. (2010), suggest that use control of glycemia that forms the main basis of pre-operative management requires cost effective considerations. The cost effective consideration of tight glycemic control is key for both efficacy and efficiency management of diabetes patients in pre-operative settings. Post operative management normally depends on the characteristic of diabetes, diabetes complications and methods of glycemia control. According to Dellinger P, Yanez D, and Farrohki E, et al. (2013), post operative management of diabetes patients focuses on insulin use and oral glucose lowering agents. Insulin administered to patients after surgery can be intermediate-acting, short-acting or long acting insulin. Short-acting insulin work best when give as pre-meal insulin since meal timing is also a matter of concern. Intravenous insulin is limited to patient in ICU since it requires continuous glucose monitoring (Humphrey, L and Snow V et al, 2011). Oral glucose lowering agents are also used to lower glucose level in post-operative management though it is limited to patient on such program in pre-operative management. Some of the glucose lowering agents includes sulfonylurea and insulin secretagogues. Glucose lowering agents reduce glucose level acutely in post operative diabetes pa tient management. The limitation of glucose lowering agents or medications is that these agents are limited to specific patients as compared to other post-operative management. Rationale for Peri-Operative Management Practices Studies indicate that poor peri-operative care of diabetes patients increases the risk of post-operative complications and infections. According to Dellinger P, Yanez D, and Farrohki E, et al. (2013), failure to control glycaemia for instance results in hyperglycaemia that is prone to cause complications among hospitalized diabetes patient after surgery. In addition post-operative control of hyperglycaemia results in low risk of complication among diabetes patients. Proper regulation of blood glucose at 4.4-6.1 mmol/L has proved to critically reduce morbidity and mortality among diabetes patients. In some patients, different blood glucose levels are required to prevent post-operative complication in different situations such as ICU. Type 1 diabetes patients are known to develop diabetic ketosis within a few hours when insulin is not administered or withdrawn especially at times of surgical operations. This implies that if insulin is not controlled then the more the lesser the insulin the higher the risk of post surgery complications (Frisch A, Chandra P, Smiley D, et al. 2010). Alternative Peri-Operative Practices There is need for multidisciplinary team for peri-operative management of diabetes patients to optimize the outcome. The multidisciplinary team incorporate good grasp of glucose-insulin complexities effect of anaesthesia and surgery provides optimized outcome (Duncan, E. and Soltesz, E. et al. 2010). In addition, there is need for a system with automated control for internal blood glucose environment. This system will help regulate the glucose concentration at an appropriate level depending on the metabolism process taking place in the blood of diabetic patient (Australian Diabetes Society, 2014). This will compliment the limitation of various peri-operative management settings. Conclusion In conclusion, there are some changes that need to be made on peri-operative management for diabetes patients to reduce risk of mortality due to post-operative complications and infection. Some of the suggested peri-operative management of diabetes patient include control of glycemia, proper insulin use and administration of glucose lowering agents. Tight control of glycemia requires cost effective analysis for better outcome. Insulin use requires consideration of diabetes characteristic and timing. Finally, glucose lowering agents are patient specific since it requires use both in pre and post-operative management of diabetes patients. There is need for multidisciplinary peri-operative management settings for diabetes patients. Reference Australian Diabetes Society (2014), Peri-operative diabetes management guidelines, 2012.

The Wonders of the Universe

Introduction The universe is a phenomenon that human beings want to understand. There are various explanation, some are religious others are scientific. The religious books explain the universe as accretion of a Supreme Being while science studies the universe by engaging in research and documenting the results.Advertising We will write a custom research paper sample on The Wonders of the Universe specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More The pioneering scientist like Newton and Einstein coined theories that have formed the basis for many theorists in today’s world. The theorist explained the origin of the universe and made important discoveries that influenced the world view. Other scientist have emerged and published as they continue to explore the existence of the universe (Diez 1). This research paper will compare The Exploding Suns: The Secrets of the Supernovas by Asimov and The Brief History of Time by Hawking. It will explor e the similarities and the differences. Moreover, it will discuss the advantages of each book over the other. This paper will also recommend different readers to each book while giving the reasons for the recommendation. At the end the paper will give an opinion of the favorite book and give the reasons. The Exploding Suns by Isaac Asimov The explanation of the existence of the universe is explained by the award winning scientist as having taken place billions of years ago. This happened when the â€Å"big bang† took place and molecules of helium together with molecules of hydrogen formed gigantic clouds. The author introduces the supernovas which takes the center stage in explaining the universe. The supernovas are enormous unsteady suns that are massive tremors and giant outbursts are phenomenal in the entire system. The results of the phenomenal are believed to perpetuate life and among other things the metals and rocks. In his book, Asimov puts in plain words the diverse types of stars that formed. While giving the explanations, he describes how a star becomes supernova from nova. Besides the stars he explicates the origin of life. He uses scientific knowledge to explain the existence of God without referring to any religious beliefs (Blake: 3). Asimov (13) explains the origin humans using science. In his explanations of human existence, he does not subscribe to any supernatural being or powers. To him billions of years have passed since the simple molecules that existed in the atmosphere combined to form the complex universe. The formation of the complex molecules left no trace that would imply life existed. To be able to establish the accuracy of this theory, technology which would enable more investigation in the space should be embraced.Advertising Looking for research paper on natural sciences?

Further to clarify if the human beings living on the planet Earth have any beginnings in the space. After establishing the existence of human life in the space, then the evidence should be consistent with the makeup of human beings in the contemporary world. The Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking Hawking in his books covers several subjects in cosmology. He covers the big bang theory, the black holes as well as the light cones (Diez 1). what is more the author goes ahead to discuss mathematical concepts in the book. He however refrains from using including mathematical equation in the book. His presentation of the contents in the book is organized systematically. He starts by stating the beginning of the universes and using theory he explains how the existence of objects came to be and reveals the existence of the black holes. The book answers important questions that human beings h ave about the existence of entire universe. Hawking uses scientific approach to answer these questions. In his book he discusses the commencement of time and the end of the universe. He also displays the similarities and contrasts of the different types of the black hole. He discusses the density of the universe in relation to the impact of critical value to understand the expansion rate. In his book Hawking while reviewing the writings of the Newton as well as Einstein, he discusses the role of God in the creation of the universe. His main interest is to understand how God designed the quantum mechanics law and relativity theory only to abandon the progress of the concepts without leaving room for intercession. Similarities Both books can reader friendly for non scientist. Hawking’s The Brief History of Time has only one equation. This is contrary to the fact that scientist are prone to using equations.non scientist often find the equations unfriendly and discourage them fro m reading the book. Besides having only one equation, Hawking frequently gives illustrates in the book to enable the reader understand the arguments. Asimov in the book The Exploding Suns explains the scientific concepts in his text making it possible for the reader to understand. The reader therefore does not need to have prior knowledge of scientific concepts to be able to understand the text.Advertising We will write a custom research paper sample on The Wonders of the Universe specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More The two authors have made great contributions in science and particularly cosmology. Asimov has written and edited over 500 books and written enormous letters as well as articles concerning science. Hawking has also made great contributions and challenged what the pioneers in science documented. For instance, Hawking contributes to the theory of black holes by noting that the black hole adheres to the thermodynamic law. By doing so he also integrates the general relativity approach together with quantum mechanics to understand his discovery that challenges existing theory of black hole. In this case he ascertains that it possible that the black hole is not entirely black, this is because radiation can leak (Hawking 30). Both authors are keen to the nature of the constantly changing world and the enormous growth in knowledge. There is more scientist than before and therefore the audiences of sciences have increased. They try to explain the nature universe using science to meet the need for knowledge. This is an attempt to incorporate new research as the explanation of some phenomenon still remains unexplained. Although the books can be read by non scientist, it is necessary for the reader to have some form of basic education in science to be able to understand some concepts explained in the books. Having studied the introductory science classes in the initial stages in school, the reader’s cu riosity arises for more knowledge. This is the information found in both books, which is how the universe came into existence in details cause the readers to develop curiosity and want to read and read contents. Asimov and Hawking have subscribed to the theories that were propounded by scientist such as Einstein, Newton among others. They refer to theory of the big bang and the concept of black holes to explain the complex reality scientifically. Although the theories were crafted many years ago they are still used in both books as a basis of explaining the beginnings of the world. In their later editions of the versions of their books, they have included the developments in science that indicate changes in science. The new additional information captures the developments in theory and modifies the existing theories that have been explained in the book. This does not mean that the theories that are mentioned before are irrelevant; they are relevant as they form a basis for understan ding the new modified theory. Differences Hawking subscribes to the theories that were propounded by the pioneers of science Newton and Einstein. The concepts derived from gravitational force are compared with quantum mechanics together with relativity theory. The concepts form a basis for studying the nuclear forces (strong forces and weak forces), electromagnetic field, and the theory of superstring as well as quantum theory.Advertising Looking for research paper on natural sciences? Let's see if we can help you! Get your first paper with 15% OFF Learn More Combining the concepts is a challenge because of the diversity of the forces. However, God is believed to have used a plan that combined all the concepts. On the other hand, Asimov does rely on the existing theory but he avoids dwelling on the already published theories to explain his understanding of the universe. Hawking describes the entire universe using a vast range of theories to capture every detail of the world more than Asimov. The wide ranges of theories make his book more comprehensive than the fewer theories used by Asimov. Hawking therefore makes the theories more complex when he goes ahead to combine the principles in order to come up with one theory that captures the wide range. This is evident when he incorporates the theory of relativity with quantum mechanics and relates them to the four dimensions. On the other hand besides introducing the big bang theory, Asimov chooses to follow the explanation of the supernovas to concentrate on one course. Hawking gives detail s on the objects in the universe while Asimov includes the origin of life to his theory of the universe. Besides discussing the novas and supernovas, the black hole and the big bang, Asimov briefly explains how human life began. In his explanation of the origin of life, the reader is left to engage in thoughts that doubt the credibility of his story. This is because it may be difficult to comprehend if life and the rocks together with the heavy metals could have any connection. Hawking does welcome the idea of God being included in the creation of the universe. In contrast, Asimov ignores the fact that there is a possibility that God would have played a role in the universe. Hawking in trying to explain how the four forces are intertwined visits the subject of God being the creator of the universe. He refers to Gods role intervening in the nature he created whenever there raises challenges that may have implications referring to the forces of nature. Moreover, he seldom criticizes G od’s role in the universe. Asimov on the contrast is hesitant to include God in the picture. He explains the universe purely on the basis of science. Advantages of one book over the other Advantage of the exploding suns The most fascinating aspect of The Exploding Suns is the explanation of the existence of the entire world using the theory of the supernovas. What gives the book more advantage to The Brief History of Time is the inclusion of the explanation on the beginnings of human being. The fact that Asimov uses the novas and supernovas in his book makes it possible for a new student of the science to understand. Although he does introduce complex scientific theories in the text he keeps the explanation within the scope of the novas and supernovas. This makes it possible for a reader to comprehend and flow with the ideas. The advantage Asimov’s book is that it is much simpler to follow unlike The Brief History of Time which introduces a vast range of theories and t he comprehensive information is compacted to give a brief history. The study of the stars is a complex topic that requires efforts and devotion of time to be able to understand. Asimov uses uncomplicated language in his book to disseminate the complex information about the suns. Moreover, he takes us back to the well known theories of the big bang, black holes and other theories that have been formulated to explain the reality of the universe. The concepts that are used in The Exploding Suns are explained explicitly. This enables people without prior knowledge of physics or astrology to read and understand the text. For this reason, the readers can read without consulting with the dictionary or encyclopedia for the complex theories. Asimov makes it possible for non scientist to use the book comfortably irrespective of their level of education. Advantage of the brief history of time The Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking is a book that encourages one to be more imaginative. He deeply explains the existence of the universe and the great phenomenon with enthusiasm. This he does by using understandable language. The last edition of Hawking has an additional chapter that gives the book an advantage over The exploding suns. The book has been revised making modifications according to developments in physics. The chapter talks about time travel on top of wormholes. Consequently, Hawking book thorough investigations on the theories gives credit as he makes comparison to find weakness and strengths of each. In his findings he finds similarity in the different approaches in physics. The Brief History of Time is the book for one seeking to understand the origin of the universe, how the universe formed and gets to know more about astronomy. The determination of a reader to understand is a must. This is because Hawking refers to some complex processes that require a lot of attention especially for non scientist. Although he discusses the theory of black holes in detai ls, the relativity theory is not given equal attention and thus the reader must pay attention to capture the idea. Getting started with reading the theories that summarize the existence of the universe and time is possible. Non scientist can get several theories in one book that is The Brief History of Time. The books writer did not have in mind that he writing the text for the experts. Understandable language is used with limited equations hence friendly. However, the book does use scientific concepts that either explained in detail or at least briefly. This enables the non- experts to be able to understand. The concepts that are used do not make the entire literature incomprehensible but rather introduces the reader the theories that have been in existence in the past years as stipulated by scientist. The book is informative to both non-scientist and scientist. However the reader must have at least some education to form a basis for understanding science. What kind of readers woul d be recommended to one book and why Recommending a book to a reader can be daunting task. Readers have different motives of reading a book. Both books are knowledgeable and can help the reader to understand the makeup of the universe and influence their perception about the universe. Recommend the Exploding Suns For a reader whose aim is to understand the concept of supernovas, then The Exploding Suns would be the book to read. Asimov explains the way the supernovas are formed. The details of the suns are given in detail and the reader is left with no choice but to get the concept of the supernovas which is used throughout the book. Readers who have little knowledge in science may use Asimov’s book. The concepts are explained clearly. The reader need not have any knowledge in science since Asimov writes in a layman’s language. The reader will be able to understand the different principles of the suns and get insight to know more. Readers who do not believe in the exis tence of any Supreme Being and power (God) can subscribe to Asimov writings. He does not acknowledge whether God had any stake in the formation of the universe. To him science is responsible for the creation of life and the objects in space. Students without any basic knowledge on the physical sciences or astronomy can read the exploding suns. It introduces the subject of the astrology in a comprehensive yet understandable manner. Recommend the brief history of time The readers who want to explore knowledge about the big bang theory, the black holes as well as the light cones The Brief History of Time is the book to read. The reader focuses on the types of black holes and explains how they are formed and describes the scenario in detail. A reader interested in theories is physics need to read The Brief History of Time. It can be considered to be an introduction to theories in physic. This is because it calls for absolute attention while reading the text where the reader is provoked to think. Moreover, it recaptures what the existing literature about the theories talk about and adds to the discussions. A reader who wants to understand how God fits in the scientific explanation of how the universe came to be should read The Brief History of Tim. In his book, Hawking devoted a whole chapter to discuss the role of God in science. Hawking invokes God and does so tactfully. It is important to note that he avoids contradicting with God and approaches then subject with ease. The Brief History of Time arranged systematically such that a reader with little knowledge about astronomy can follow. The chapters are guiding since one chapter ushers in the next chapter. In the chapters that proceed, Hawking takes time to explain the concepts in depth. Later he keeps referring to what he explained to build in the knowledge. The most recent developments in theory are discussed in the end. For instance the last chapter on the string theory is presented last. The four dimensions o f the world are explained vividly in The Brief History of Time. The intent of relating and describing the dimensions is with an aim of approaching the subject of obtaining a theory that includes all the mentioned theories in the book. According to Hawking, science would reach its end if a unified theory that speaks about the universe would be coined. This aspect of discussing the dimensions makes the book even more interesting to read. The Brief History of Time is a book that total concentration to read. Although Hawking makes it easier to understand by arranging the chapters in a friendly way, the reader must pay attention not to skip any details. Hawking keeps referring to concepts already introduced in previous chapters to introduce other concepts in the following chapter. The four dimensions and the theories mentioned might not be easy for a non scientist to gasp. They must pay attention and meditate as they progress so as to deduce meanings that are implied within the theories. Besides the fact that some concepts in physics can be difficult to explain, I would recommend the book to a non scientist as well as emerging scientist to read the book. This is because Hawking simplified the explanation such that one can understand. If a reader wants a book that is wealthy in a lot of information, The Brief History of Time is the book to read. It is rich in information and every time the reader reads they encounter more and more information. This is to mean that the book is comprehensive in the subject of time and space, among other interesting scientific theories. The end result is that the reader broadens his knowledge in the subject. There is so much that remains unexplored in the existence of the universe. Hawking provokes other scientist who may be interested in the subject to explore so as to arrive at a unified theory. This is a call for more inventions in the subject. A scientist who would be interested in astrology may read the book to get insights from H awking. Moreover, the theory that was introduced in the last chapter, the string theory is an area that needs to be explored as it is an emerging theory. This book could be recommended to a scientist who wants to engage in research about the astronomy. As the name of the book suggests, Hawking wrapped up the entire story of time and space briefly. A reader with at least the knowledge of the physics can engage in the reading the publication. The details provided are best for someone with at least the some college education in science. This is because he does present a lot of details in physics are limits his exploration in giving an extensive definition of some concepts. However the reader despite losing the writer in some parts of the book can still catch up and get to understand as he often uses simple language, considering that physics can be complex and difficult to explain. College graduates who have completed their physics tutorials can use the book to broaden their understandi ng about the universe. The book covers several concepts that have been introduced during their training. Moreover, the book can be of great advantage to those who seek to advance in physics and astrological studies. This is because it provokes further thinking and broadens ones understanding of time and space. Although the latest edition of The Brief History of Time introduced the new developments of theory in physics, most of the content emanate from theories that were developed many years back. This book would not be the most appropriate for a reader searching for new theories in physics. Which book did I like more and why Both The Brief History of Time and The Exploding Suns give the details that a non scientist would read and understand. They have areas of similarities like the big bang theory and are presented differently. The major driving force that leads one to choose a book is to get information which is comprehensive like in The Brief History of Time. The Brief History of Time emerges s as the most comprehensive book because of the wide inclusion of many theories that explain the world phenomenon. Moreover, the theories are explained consistently and progressively. Hawking uses simple language understandable even to the non scientist. A lot of knowledge is compacted just like the title of the books calls it a brief history. For this reason one begins to gain interest and becomes more imaginative. The author further attempts to relate the complex forces of nature with the existing theories so as to come up with a unified approach on the nature of the world system. More importantly, the book is theoretical and avoids using equations. Conclusion The universe is a complex reality that can be hard to explain. The Brief History of Time and The Exploding Suns have tried to give an account of the existence of the entire universe. Among the questions answered is the beginning of the universe and how forces of nature resulted into the present world. They give an account of the objects that are found in the space and explain various concepts (Girl: 1). Both books in their latest editions have introduced a chapter on the development of theories and use the earlier theories to explain the emerging theories. Among the theories commonly used in both books is the theory of the big bang and black hole among others. It is a remarkable effort from both authors that they managed to simplify the complex science into understandable layman’s language. Moreover, both authors have referred to theories that were coined by the pioneering scientist. The content found in the books is different in approach. Hawking in The Brief History of Time discusses the relativity theory; quantum mechanics among others while Asimov in The Exploding Suns dwells on the theory of the novas and the supernovas. The other difference is that Hawking book may require the reader to have some foundation in physics to be able to capture all the ideas that are presented. On the other hand Asimov’s book is written in the simplest language for readers without prior knowledge on astrology. Asimov has included in his book explanation of how human life came to be. Besides using science to explain the nature of the universe, Hawking visits the role of God in the universe. Works Cited Asimov, Isaac. The Exploding Suns: The Secrets of the Supernovas.

Semitic Empires in Ancient Mesopotamia essays

Semitic Empires in Ancient Mesopotamia essays Thousands of years ago, the agricultural revolution of the Neolithic age precipitated the rise of human civilization in the hospitable climes of the Fertile Crescent. The sedentary peoples of Mesopotamia, especially the ancient Sumerians, required rapidly increasing levels of social coordination to utilize the sporadic flooding of the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, a need that could only be accommodated by implementation of a governmental structure. Surplus crop yields generated by the organizational success of this primitive government allowed for the presence of specialists in Sumerian society, which in turn led to great technological developments, the most important of which was a system of writing using phonetic characters. Gradually, cultural elements unique to the Sumerians, such as their shared religion and heroic epics, acted to unite the once-isolated cities of Southern Mesopotamia into a single people. The unquestioned authority of the local Sumerian rulers, maintained for centuries, was broken by Sargon, ruler of Akkad, in 2340 B.C.E. His army of professional soldiers, one of the earliest of its kind, swept north from the Arabian Peninsula and sacked the ancient cities of Southern Mesopotamia. This new Akkadian empire, under the leadership of Sargon, adopted Sumerian culture and further developed the innovations of their predecessors. Sargon was the first to concentrate the combined resources of the Mesopotamian city-states under monarchical control, thus creating a cohesive nation where all assets could be consolidated for the sake of warfare. This aggressive stance in the management of the empire was not maintained by his successors, however, and after two hundred years the rule of the Akkadians was overthrown when the Southern Mesopotamian cities revolted in 2125 B.C.E. For more than a century, Mesopotamia drifted into chaos, the city-states isolated and beset by Asiatic invaders. In the 19th century B.C.E., the Amor...

Contemporary Issues in American Society - Essay Example If Americanization really is a feature of the new global community, what are the ramifications of the Americanization of the world? From a historical standpoint, what explains the Americanization of the world and is this beneficial to the global community? Accordingly, what are the benefits to the United States of a globalized world in which US cultural hegemony reigns supreme? Aiming to address these questions and many more as they relate to the globalization phenomenon in the 21st century, the following will explore how globalization affects the United States of America. According to scholars Kelly and Prokhovnik, globalization is a complex phenomenon which is difficult to understand. Accordingly, â€Å"although the globalization of culture seems in some ways obvious in our daily lives, it is not an entirely straightforward matter. Culture is a complicated and pervasive phenomenon, taking many forms.† (48) Seeking to address the issues surrounding the Americanization of the world and the role of the United States has played in creating a mass market â€Å"world culture†, the following aims to provide a concise overview the charges leveled against the United States as an cultural, economic and political hegemon. This exploration will seek to explore American culture on a global scale while looking at such issues as the spread of American youth culture, globalization as an American-inspired economic force and the global spread of American democratic governance. In the post-World War Two period, the globalization of American values began in earnest following the near total physical, economic and social devastation of the European continent. Post WW-II, a social revolution paved the way for the international export of American values and ideas throughout the globe. For the United States, the social revolution of the nineteen-sixties was importantly also a cultural revolution. In fact, the â€Å"rise of a specific, and extraordinarily

Does Birth Control Need to Be Implemented to Limit the Population Essay

Does Birth Control Need to Be Implemented to Limit the Population - Essay Example Although some of Joy Williams’ reasoning for her argument may be true and plausible, she has overlooked some other aspects of her view that may address and prove her argument to be null and inefficient.  Williams’ main claim is that a woman’s craving for babies leads to overpopulation and can cause detrimental problems in our world. However, her argument displays the post hoc fallacy, which underscores the author’s making a mistake of placing the causes of the overpopulation merely on the increasing rate of procreation of women today. Williams notes, according to the United Nations Population Fund, that â€Å"at current growth rates, the world will double its population in forty years† (par. 8), thereby, â€Å"overpopulation poses the greatest threat to all life on earth† (par. 8). She maintains that having babies can be considered as a selfish act, with no concern for the outside world. Williams displays the red herring fallacy when she st arts talking about adoption. This has nothing to do with the subject and can be considered a side issue. Adoption is unlike giving birth and is usually done because of pre-existing circumstances. The two points – procreation rates and adoption – are linked, but do not affect one another. Women who are unable to conceive children should not be looking down upon if they choose to adopt. This is because someone has already given birth to a child – a decision that the adopter had no part of. Adoption is a good thing because it makes sure that unwanted babies are looked after and cared for by a loving parent. It is a different matter completely if someone is able to conceive and then chooses to adopt. Williams discusses a relevant point when talking about adoption. Parents usually want to adopt children who do not have any physical flaws. This is a natural thought process but it does not allow less fortunate babies to get an opportunity in life.

The Constitution Theory Essay Example for Free

The Constitution Theory Essay INTRODUCTION: Main purpose of this article is to review the European Union Constitution and to find out how it will allocate power within the EU member states. The present debate about the EU’s constitution is about its balance of power. Under the new expanded market, how the common market is going to be managed. How the government social policy is to be determined? Under common constitution, how the defense and foreign affairs is going to be accomplished? Is integration is necessary and if so, by how much? As regards to EU and member States, where the institutional power is going to be housed? If and when the EU constitution is approved by its Citizens and successive ratification of the respective Member governments, the EU Constitution will simplify and speed up the matters relating to home affairs and justice as these are all going to be dealt with at European level itself but also fostering more democratic accountability and transparency into decision making. EVALUTION OF EUROPEAN UNION CONSTITUTION: The EU constitution is divided into four parts. Part 1 deals with the definition of Union, its institution’s competences. Part II deals with the fundamental rights of the Union. Part III explains EC treaty and TEU with broad details on social, economical, detail on internal market, external action, monetary policy and the activities of the EU institutions. Part IV consists of various declarations and protocols. Under the present EU constitution, how the relationships between Union and its member states are going to be maintained is the main focal point of this essay. The uniqueness of EU like its state –like characteristic and the mandate and independence of its various institutions are evaluated. Further the declared objectives and values of the Union are briefly explained with critical attention to safeguard of human rights. The substantial authority enshrined to EU based on a number of stated or implied principles underlying union action. This analysis also evaluates the five exceptional articles in EU constitution that underscore the Union’s continuing commitment to Member State sovereignty. The constitution stipulates that most of its decisions at EU level will be approved only by the unanimous vote or common accord or consensus. Thus it confers to the State the right to block the decision and veto and this symbolizes a unique reservation of power to the Member states. EU has the autonomy as a governmental entity and it resembles those of modern nation-states and EU is composed of official bodies of national government. But in reality, there exists certain limitation on the Union and its institutions. EU is a distinct authority and its existence is separated by its Member States. It is established as a constitutional authority and posse’s legal personality.   EU is enjoying certain constitutional rights and protection for the execution of its tasks. Since the EU is a juristic person, it has the privileges of owning property and to be a party to legal proceedings. The EU constitution accords EU with symbols like a national anthem, a flag, an annual holiday, a motto and Union common currency ‘Euro’. EU comprises of specific set of institutions and of ‘institutional framework’ and these institutions is authorized to constitute law for the Union and its majority of its regulative activities are to be carried out at the central, EU level. Thus the activities of these institutions are subject to oversee by independent ombudsman of the European Parliament. Thus the EU has been established on permanent basis with its own constitution. There is also room for the further expansion of the EU and is open ‘to all â€Å"European States† willing to promote the Union’s values. Constitution of the EU stipulates that EU has the duty to ‘respect the equality of Members States, to honour their national identities and to recognise their essential state functions. In the eyes of the constitution, the Union and its Member States are alike and each of them is necessitated to follow to ‘the code of sincere cooperation’. The constitution requires the Union and Member States to exhibit mutual respect, help each other in accomplishing tasks which originates from the constitution. The Article 1-60 grants exit power to the Member States and authorizes a State to unilaterally withdraw from the EU. The Member State can grant certain rights to EU under its law like ownership of property. This right underscores the EU constitution the strength of the Member State as well as the legal personality of the EU. Further the EU is subject to the contract law and tort law of individual Member States. The EU constitution will become effective only after the approval of the each Member States at its national level as per its own constitutional requirements and it should be ratified by all States. Any proposed amendment to constitution is required the unanimous consent of the Member States who are awarded with right of veto and can exercise this right even on minor change that may affect them . Further any new accession to EU is to be approved by the existing members of EU through their national procedure. Certain sensitive issues like official use of languages within the institution and location of the institutions are subject to unanimous approval of the Member States. EU constitution stipulates that ‘European framework laws’ will be binding ‘as to the results to be accomplished’ but leaving to the Member States ‘the Choice of form and methods.’ Further certain European regulations may stipulate that the States will select how to apply the desired policy.   Further under certain veiled circumstances, States may be authorised to initiate the EU legislative process. 2.1 FINANCE: EU has the financial independence. It does not depend upon the contribution from its members. EU raises its finances through taxation and also adopts its annual budget .Further EU is expected not to exceed its annual budgets. Thus the financial conduct of the EU is to be approved by the Member States and also unanimous approval by the council. In addition to this, each multi annual financial framework must be unanimously approved by the Council. It is pertinent to note that the lion’s share of EU’s finance is again diverted to as a financial support for agricultural and other programs of the Member States. 2.2 EXTERNAL RELATIONS: EU has to draft its own external relation policy. It’s relation with wider world and to contribute to security ,peace , sustainable development , mutual respect among subjects , poverty eradication, free and fair trade , human rights protection , observance of institutional law and respects for the principles of the United Nations Charter. It is worthwhile to mention that the authority of the EU to act in external affairs matters is cautiously limited. Member states are regarded as the Citizen of the EU. Thus the Member States as citizen of the EU has been granted with wide rights such as ‘right to move and reside freely in any member state ‘the right to vote and stand as a candidate in municipal and European parliament elections, the right to deal with the EU institutions in any official EU language and certain rights to diplomatic and consular assistance from any member state. Further EU has the obligation to serve to the interest of its citizens and to grant them ‘an area of security, freedom, justice without internal borders ‘along with the strong single market. EU has the obligation to treat all of its citizens impartially. The EU commitment to the principles of ‘participatory democracy ‘and ‘representative democracy ‘are of critical in nature and these articles offers citizens the right of representation in the EU parliament, the right to participate in the democratic life of the Union and the right to act through the EU-level political parties. Citizens can raise their voice through public forum, access for their representative association, can have consultation with the officials of EU and right of initiative. Further citizens have further rights like Union institutions should conduct open meetings, right of personal data protection, access to its important documents and respect for the national status of churches. EU offers dual citizenship to its members. Thus right to stand in the election is restricted to municipal and European parliament election.   No mention about the National and provincial election has been made and there is no explanation to what Municipal means. As such, the EU constitution has to be amended to include these provisions which requires the unanimous approval of its Members State This may provide derogation where warranted by problems specific to a Member State. The prerequisite of unanimity and possibilities for derogation exhibits limited power of the EU to delineate the rights of its citizens. One another outstanding aspect is that the tort claims may be initiated by the injured persons against EU ‘in accordance with the general laws of the Member States. Further Part 1 of the constitution of EU deals with the EU’s institutions like European Parliament, European Council, and Court of Justice .Significant activity of the institution is the creation of the EU’s legislation. The national parliaments of States must be informed all proposed EU legislation.   The States may object the any legislative part that violates the principles of its interest. One of the noteworthy is that EU Parliament is denied the right to introduce legislation as this power is vested with the Commission. Currently the decisions are taken by the qualified majority vote (QMV). But from 2009 onwards, QMV will to be approved by at least 55% of the members of the Council consisting of at least fifteen of them and representing member states comprising at least 65% of the population of the Union. Due to this policy, a small group of the largest state can able to prevent a successful vote although the Constitution stipulates at least four states to form a ‘blocking minority’. But under QMV, no single member is having the power to block EU legislation. Even though there exists QMV, the EU contains many provisions requiring the Council to act unanimously. 2.3 EUROPEAN COMMISSION: It acts as chief administrative body and permanent executive of the EU. EU acts as a guardian of the constitution and manager of the EU budget and programs. It has to remain as an independent body. Commission’s decision is taken by the majority of votes. The European Court of Justice (ECJ), European Central Bank (ECB) and Court of Auditors are bodies that are affiliated to EU and independent of other Union institutions. Both ECJ and ECB are vested with power over the Member States. ECJ will deal with the complaints from EU States on one another and will attempt to resolve the same. EU constitution contains the most of the values and objectives of EC Treaty and TEU. The preamble of the EU constitution includes ‘reunited Europe. The EU also wishes to remain as a continent open to learning, culture and social progress. To lead a democratic government, to strive for justice, peace and solidarity. It speaks about the protection of fundamental rights. The members are requested to help the EU to attain its objects and to refrain from any activity that would hamper the attainment of EU’s objectives. The EU constitution authorizes ‘improved cooperation’ among group of Member States an activity that undermines the cohesions of the EU. As per the provisions of the Article I-3, the Union is authorised to protect the well-being of it’s ‘peoples’ rather than its ‘People’. Further EU is authorised to exercise its conferred competences ‘in the community ways’ instead of federal basis as it was mentioned earlier. 2.4 PROTECTION OF INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS. Part II of the constitution describes the Fundamental Rights of the Union into the European Union Law. Some argue that EU must extend its objectives beyond the economic sphere and insertion of human rights charter in the constitution. The preamble concludes as follows: The Union therefore recognises the freedom, rights and principles set out hereafter. Thus the EU constitution structure has established institutions and explains its areas of activity, all are subject to the restriction on the EU and reservation in favour of the Member States. The following five provisions of the constitution deserve attention as it offers powerful statement on the status of the Member States within the Union. Article 1-5. Respect – The Union must respect the territorial integrity of the state thereby safeguarding the national security. These instructions may be intended to prohibit a hegemonic relationship. Article 1.44 – Enhanced Cooperation- Enhanced cooperation is aberrant of a true federal system in which powers are segregated vertically between the States and the central government. Article 1-59- Suspension of Rights: If any of the Member States has committed a ‘serious and persistent breach ‘of EU core values, the council has the power to suspend the membership of such states and despite of such suspension, the State is still bound by its obligations under the Constitution Article 1-60- Amending the constitution-   Any amendment of constitution   requires ratification by all the Member States and in Part III , unanimous voting can be changed to QMV . Further European Council must unanimously approve such amendments and must be referred to national parliaments and disagreement by any parliament may obstruct the amendment. CONCLUSION: The one question that arises is whether the creation of European Union is going to dominate its Creators. One has to remember that EU is a striking force not only in Europe but also in the rest of the world. As such, the Member States need not slide into stupor or inappropriateness. Thus EU Constitution will make the EU as an amalgam system. Most of the central features allocated to the Union under the Constitution will be carryover from the treaties. The EU Constitution has the following striking characteristics. EU citizenship will afford the nationals of EU the freedom to reside, vote, work anywhere in the EU.   The EU levies its own taxes and collects thereby revenues and meets its budget requirement on its own and is not depend on any contribution to from its member states. The EU has its own currency managed by its own central bank. It has its own Parliament, Council of ministers, commissions. The Union legislation is to be adopted by majority voting in the Council and European Parliament. Further EU law is having supremacy over the laws of its all Member States. EU has to act only within the restrictions of the power conferred on it by the Member States. Competences are still remaining with the Member States. Certain policy decisions have to be taken only on unanimous voting by all the Member States. Further without the consensus, the Council can not proceed in certain key decisions. Thus a single member has the ability to block any resolution and has the bargaining power and can demand concessions as the price for its voting. Another striking factor of EU is that foreign policy and defense are untouched and left with the respective Member States. EU constitution stipulates that it has to respect the integrity of the Member State as sovereign nation. EU has the right to suspension of rights of Member States and offers the Member States withdrawal rights from the EU. EU constitution can not be amended with out approval of each Member of the State. Last but not the least, as the world is facing constant shifting winds of international affairs, it is arduous to foresee whether the EU Constitution after its ratification will take the EU to success path? The balance of power as suggested by the EU Constitution is workable or not?   Whether its political concession can be sustained? Is the tremendous power among the Member States to transfer power to Brussels is going to succeed or not? Are some core group of states is going to be unwind for an enhanced co-operation between themselves? Only time has to answer all these questions. EU Constitution is aimed to maintain the Union’ current system of duality of Authority thereby facilitating the members to retain their position as sovereign nation in the EU with significant central features. Thus the EU constitution aims to bring all the Europeans under one umbrella and it provides more effective and simpler legal base for EU activities to promote security, freedom and justice and exactly explaining the responsibilities and aims already provided in successive EU treaties and thus assisting Europeans to be aware of them.
