Philip Jose Farmer: The Dark Design

The Dark Design


Description

Years have passed on Riverworld. Entire nations have risen, and savage wars have been fought--all since the dead of Earth found themselves resurrected in their magnificent new homeworld. Yet the truth about the Ethicals, the powerful engineers of this mysterious "afterlife, " remains unknown. But a curious cross-section of humanity is determined to change that situation . . . at any cost. Intrepid explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton leads the most remarkable voyage of discovery he has ever undertaken. Hot on his heels are Samuel Clemens, King John of England, and Cyrano de Bergerac. Spurred by the promise of ultimate answers, they chart a course across the vast polar sea--and toward the awesome tower that looms above it. But getting there will be more than half the battle. For death on Riverworld has become chillingly final . . .

The figures that stand beside a graffiti writer's name and attract attention to it are referred to as characters - one of the most popular and easily accessible aspects of graffiti. The characters featured in this unique book are all waiting to be rendered in glorious colour. Featuring drawings by the world's foremost graffiti writers, it's a great gift for children and adults alike. In this delightful, acclaimed bestseller, one of the world s leading cognitive scientists tackles the workings of the human mind. What makes us rational and why are we so often irrational? How do we see in three dimensions? What makes us happy, afraid, angry, disgusted, or sexually aroused? Why do we fall in love? And how do we grapple with the imponderables of morality, religion, and consciousness? How the Mind Works synthesizes the most satisfying explanations of our mental life from cognitive science, evolutionary biology, and other fields to explain what the mind is, how it evolved, and how it allows us to see, think, feel, laugh, interact, enjoy the arts, and contemplate the mysteries of life. This new edition of Pinker s bold and buoyant classic is updated with a new foreword by the author. Undeniably brilliant. "Newsday" Big, brash, and a lot of fun. "Time" Hugely entertaining always sparkling and provoking. "Wall Street The Dark Design download ebook Journal" Witty popular science that you enjoy reading for the writing as well as for the science. "New York Times Book Review""
