Reason and Politics : The Nature of Political Phenomena
Reason and Politics explores the central phenomena of political life and, therefore, of human affairs in general. Amidst the seemingly endless books on more and more narrowly specialized topics within politics, Mark Blitz offers something very different.Reason and Politics: The Nature of Political Phenomena examines the central phenomena of political life in order to clarify their meaning, source, and range.Blitz gives particular attention to the notions of freedom, rights, justice, virtue, power, property, nationalism, and the common good.At the same time, Blitz shows how, in order to understand political matters correctly, we must also understand how they affect us directly.We do not merely theorize over political questions; we experience them.Blitz also considers matters such as the powers and motions of the soul, the nature of experience, and the varieties of pleasure and attachment. Living at a time when technological change makes it difficult even to claim convincingly that there are defining human characteristics and natural limits that we simply cannot change, Reason and Politics proposes that there are in fact basic phenomena not only in politics, but that make up human affairs as such.In examining these central phenomena in a lucid and articulate manner, this book makes a unique contribution not only to the study of politics but also to the study of philosophy more broadly.It will interest undergraduate and graduate students, political scientists and philosophers, those interested in politics, and general readers.

Are there paranormal phenomena?
The existence of paranormal phenomena is a topic of much debate and skepticism. While some people claim to have experienced paranormal events such as ghosts, UFOs, or psychic abilities, there is no scientific evidence to support these claims. Many paranormal phenomena can be explained by psychological or natural factors, and there is a lack of reproducible, controlled experiments to validate these claims. As a result, the scientific community generally does not recognize the existence of paranormal phenomena.

Transport Phenomena in Multiphase Flows
This textbook provides a thorough presentation of the phenomena related to the transport of mass (with and without electric charge), momentum and energy. It lays all the basic physical principles, and then for the more advanced readers, it offers an in-depth treatment with advanced mathematical derivations and ends with some useful applications of the models and equations in specific settings. The important idea behind the book is to unify all types of transport phenomena, describing them within a common framework in terms of cause and effect, respectively, represented by the driving force and the flux of the transported quantity.The approach and presentation are original in that the book starts with a general description of transport processes, providing the macroscopic balance relations of fluid dynamics and heat and mass transfer, before diving into the mathematical realm of continuum mechanics to derive the microscopic governing equations at the microscopic level. The book is a modular teaching tool and is used either for an introductory or for an advanced graduate course.The last six chapters are of interest to more advanced researchers who might be interested in applications in physics, mechanical engineering or biomedical engineering.In particular, this second edition of the book includes two chapters about electric migration, that is the transport of mass that takes place in a mixture under the action of electro-magnetic fields.Electric migration finds many applications in the modeling of energy storage devices, such as batteries and fuel cells. All chapters are complemented with solved exercises that are essential to complete the learning process.

What is the difference between abstract phenomena and local and opportunistic phenomena?
Abstract phenomena refer to broad, general concepts or patterns that are not tied to a specific time or place, such as climate change or economic globalization. On the other hand, local and opportunistic phenomena are specific to a particular location or situation, and are often short-term and context-dependent. Local phenomena may include events like a local festival or a community protest, while opportunistic phenomena are often related to taking advantage of specific circumstances for personal gain. The key difference is that abstract phenomena are overarching and not tied to a specific context, while local and opportunistic phenomena are specific and situational.
