When an increase in odd, and horrific, incidents on Earth suggests the enemy have weaponised stories in their campaign to Make Faerie Fearsome Again, Aelik must navigate the toxic waters of political intrigue in search of a way to end the cold war, and prevent a civil war in Faerie.

Book Synopsis The Demons of Science by : Friedel Weinert

Download or read book The Demons of Science written by Friedel Weinert. This book was released on 2016-05-19. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first all-encompassing exploration of the role of demons in philosophical and scientific thought experiments. In Part I, the author explains the importance of thought experiments in science and philosophy. Part II considers Laplace’s Demon, whose claim is that the world is completely deterministic. Part III introduces Maxwell’s Demon, who - by contrast - experiences a world that is probabilistic and indeterministic. Part IV explores Nietzsche’s thesis of the cyclic and eternal recurrence of events. In each case a number of philosophical consequences regarding determinism and indeterminism, the arrows of time, the nature of the mind and free will are said to follow from the Demons’s worldviews. The book investigates what these Demons - and others - can and cannot tell us about our world.
