Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 150 YEARS OF POLITICS-AND YET POWER REMAINS A MYSTERY. This book explains why. For too long, politics has been an art of justification-rich in ideologies, poor in structure. It explained intentions, spun narratives, and moralized decisions. Yet, it failed to understand the actual mechanics that stabilize or destroy order. This book changes everything. Ekkehard Finkeissen presents a groundbreaking research framework that delivers what politics has always lacked: a functional model of power and order. Legitimacy, resistance, responsibility, maturity, and impact-not as mere buzzwords, but as precisely operating mechanics. Here, politics is not judged; it is decoded. This book is essential reading for: - - Thinkers and Strategists: Anyone tired of ideological battles, symbolic politics, moral outrage, and short-term reactive measures.- - Analysts of Order: Anyone who wants to understand the core reasons why political order emerges-or collapses.- - Future Leaders: Anyone ready to view politics as a structural challenge-and maturity as the bedrock of stable power.Provocative. Lucid. Structured. A turning point for everyone who no longer views political maturity as an ideal, but as a function.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Physics has long been misunderstood as a mere collection of natural laws describing the world 'as it really is.' This book sets a limit to that. It presents a precise functional model of physical knowledge - not as an inventory of matter or a worldview, but as a structure: - Fault lines of cognition- Atomic context- Quantization & compression- STOP conditionsNo naive worldviews. No context-free truth. Only method. Only efficacy. A research program that shifts physics from the sphere of ontologization into the verifiable conditions of access. To understand this book, be prepared to read familiar terms in a new way.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This book is not a guide.It does not explain how to implement, regulate, or use AI.And it does not promise solutions.It poses the central questions for the upcoming challenges.The focus is not on technology, but on the organization.AI is not understood here as a tool, but as a stress test: it amplifies what is already structurally present-maturity as well as immaturity. What was long obscured by operational excellence, growth, or compensation becomes visible and escalates under AI conditions.The book is aimed at managing directors, board members, and decision-makers close to liability who sense that the real challenge lies not in the application of AI tools, but in the viability of responsibility, decision-making ability, and order. It does not ask what should be done, but whether organizations today are even still capable of bearing the consequences of their decisions when these are scaled, automated, and can no longer be clearly assigned.Instead of frameworks, roadmaps, or best practices, the book offers distinctions: between responsibility and governance, between decision and delegation, between maturity and mere performance capability.It shows why many common answers-AI as a tool, governance as a rulebook, transformation as a project-miss the actual problem. Not because they are wrong, but because they come too soon.This book is deliberately demanding.It is not intended for readers looking for quick answers or operational guides. Anyone reaching for solutions here will be disappointed.Because the central thesis is: The decisive answer cannot come from the outside.The answer is the organization itself.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What remains of God once the wish is subtracted This book is neither a proof of God nor a refutation. It is an epistemic audit: a systematic examination of the hidden assumptions that shape classical questions about God - personal, local, intentional.Dr. Ekkehard Finkeissen introduces the Replacement Test: What still holds when 'God' is replaced by 'the ordering principle' 9 of the 10 classic questions dissolve under this scrutiny. What remains is the question of origin - and with it, the limit of every ontology.The book draws clear distinctions between wish and reality, orthodoxy and orthopraxy, genesis and validity. It takes the longing for a personal, benevolent God seriously without confusing that longing with truth. At the same time, it shows that the movement from an anthropomorphic image of God toward a tested, impersonal ordering principle is not an attack on religion, but a line of maturation that has existed within the great traditions for centuries (apophatic theology, Tillich, Advaita Vedanta).Those who find comfort, prayer, or community in a personal image of God are not criticized here. What is criticized is only the use of God to render criticism impossible.A book for readers who neither want to believe dogmatically nor refute cheaply - but to examine. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Research Program Chemistry - Emergent Objectification of Matter>Physics and chemistry do not speak the same language - even though they describe the same reality. The old dividing line ran along a scale of size. The new one runs along the degree of compression. This book shows: Physics ends exactly where stable, discrete objects arise and causality begins. This handover is not a failure of physics, but the birth of chemistry. Chemistry is not applied physics; it is physics' first level of appearance. In clear, essayistic prose the author develops: - the four ruptures between physics and chemistry - the atomic context as method (atom - molecule - reaction) - the bootloader and the knowledge matrix - STOP conditions at which models lose their admissibility - the difference between reduction and grounding The book is addressed to chemists in training, teachers, and philosophers of science. It is neither a textbook nor a reckoning, but a research program for the autonomy of chemistry. Anyone willing to re-examine the ball-and-stick view and the notion 'chemistry = physics at the molecular scale' will find here a sharp and usable alternative. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Research Program FAMILYPassing on Life A research program on family - as a community of responsibility, as the place of inherited lies, and as the most effective path to maturity. This book lays bare the architecture of the family: from early imprinting and biological asymmetries through the silent contracts of partnership to the power games that present themselves as care. It shows why family begins with lies and ends with lies - and what it costs when those lies remain unseen. You will learn how to- recognize and question the inherited life-lies in your own family- make covert contracts & mental load visible - see through the four major parental life-lies- distribute responsibility & power in relationships more clearly- walk the path from immaturity to genuine adulthoodAn eye-opening book for anyone no longer willing to romanticize family - but ready to understand and change it.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This book challenges the way we think about dentistry - and how we think about thinking itself. At its core, it presents a structured model for clinical decision-making that draws from dentistry, decision theory, and artificial intelligence. But it does more than that: it asks what it really means to make a 'good' decision in a medical context, and what kind of system - social, technical, economic - supports or distorts those decisionsRather than listing treatments or summarizing studies, this book takes a step back and asks: How are treatment decisions actually made - and how can we improve that process structurally The approach is rooted in real-world dental practice, but its implications are much broader. The author proposes a conceptual framework that separates diagnosis, decision logic, and communication - allowing for more transparency, reproducibility, and patient-centered care. Along the way, it shows how AI is not merely a tool, but a mirror: it reflects the implicit structures in our knowledge and workflows, and gives us the opportunity to make them visible and consciously designable.Key themes: - Clinical decision-making as a structured process- Limitations of intuition and experience in dental planning- The role of AI as a socio-technical-economic system- Separation of knowledge, logic, and communication- Why statistical reasoning (e.g., probabilities, confidence intervals) alone is insufficient- How human expertise and intelligent systems can complement each otherWritten for dental professionals, researchers, and forward-thinking practitioners, this book offers a new lens on dental decision-making - and an invitation to rethink the foundations of medical logic in the 21st centuryMore than a dental bookA new theory of how we make medical decisions.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The Physics Effect: How Reality Emerges - and Why We Lose It to Understand ItA new fundamental work on perception, science, and the grammar of reality.What actually happens when we measure, think, and decide This book presents a radical thesis: reality is not a given whole - it only emerges through the interplay of world, action, observation, and decision. Every measurement is an intervention, every form a simplification, every truth a premise. And this is precisely the 'Physics Effect' we generate stability that we then believe we are merely discovering.The Physics Effect combines physics, philosophy, computer science, and epistemology into a new, clear order. It demonstrates: - why concepts and models conceal more than they reveal - and why we still need them, - why quantisation is the fundamental mechanism that makes thinking and science possible in the first place, - why objectivity is not a state, but a process, - how language, mathematics, and measurement shape reality, - why data is never neutral - and why AI only amplifies what we quantise, - and why sincerity - in thought as well as action - remains the central scientific virtue.This book is neither a textbook nor a theory of everything. It is the order that precedes all theories: a grammar of perception that reveals how we generate meaning and why knowledge can never be complete.Who is this book for - For physicists who want to understand what measurement and modelling truly mean.- For philosophers who want to redefine the boundaries of concept, language, and validity.- For researchers, developers, and decision-makers who want to know what perception can actually achieve in a world of data, information, simulations, and AI.- For everyone wondering how the world and thought interconnect - and what responsibility arises from this.A profound work - and a necessary one in the age of AI.It shows why machine thought can never surpass human thought as long as it relies on the same mechanisms - and why responsibility and sincerity mark the true boundaries of artificial intelligence.Anyone reading this book will gain not only a new understanding of physics, but also of the future of knowledge, science, and intelligent systems.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What if revolution isn't an event, but a process of cognition We're taught to think of revolutions as ruptures - sudden, violent, historical. This book argues the opposite: that revolution, examined closely enough, dissolves into millions of individually checkable micro-revolutions - small acts of hypothesis and re-examination that either succeed quietly or, mishandled, escalate into brute force. Research Program Revolution builds a rigorous, testable architecture for understanding change of category - in science, in politics, in institutions, and in individual minds. Drawing on epistemology, Peircean abduction, Koselleck's conceptual history, and self-organized criticality from physics, it asks a question most theories of revolution never dare to make precise: not whether a revolution turns violent, but at exactly which point it does. Rather than offering another grand narrative, this book gives you an operative toolkit: a way to name the moment a category breaks, to state in advance when a theory should stop being applied, and to trace the difference between necessary compression and dogmatic enforcement. Inside, you will find: - A framework that decomposes revolution into its smallest checkable unit- The 'STOP condition' - how healthy paradigms build in their own expiration- Seven historical fracture points, examined case by case- A honest accounting of what a static book cannot do - and where the living examination continues- A rare fusion of philosophy of science, history, and systems thinkingThis is not a book that tells you revolution is coming. It's a book that teaches you how to see one before it arrives - and how to tell the difference between a category that needs to change and a change that has gone wrong. For readers of epistemology, philosophy of science, intellectual history, and anyone who has ever wondered where exactly the line runs between reform and rupture.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - From the model that lets computers understand each other - to a new architecture for knowledge itself.For over sixty years, engineers have relied on one elegant idea to make interoperability possible: layers. The OSI reference model let machines exchange meaning by separating concerns - from physical signal to protocol to application - so a failure at one level could never silently corrupt understanding at another.Research Program in 7 LAYERS OF THINKING asks a bold question: what if the same discipline could organize knowledge itself Dr. Ekkehard Finkeissen extends the OSI model beyond networking into a rigorous meta-architecture of understanding - seven functional layers running from raw measurement to normative decision: - Event Space - where physical reality becomes measurable- Concept & Language - where measurements acquire meaning- Model & System - where relations become structure- Validity - where claims earn the right to be believed- Coordination - where disciplines and institutions interoperate- Interpretation - where tested structures become communicable- Application - where knowledge becomes norm, policy, or actionThe result is a shared grammar for scientists, philosophers, lawyers, physicians, engineers, and standardization bodies alike - a precise way to see exactly where reasoning goes wrong: when description quietly becomes prescription, when interpretation is mistaken for measurement, when institutions 'solve' epistemic problems by skipping the very steps that make solutions trustworthy.Written as both a philosophical argument and a practical reference - complete with worked audit questions for every layer and every transition between layers - this book is the technical foundation of a broader research program (spanning medicine, law, economics, psychology, and politics) and a candidate contribution to future standardization work through bodies such as ISO and IEC.Who this book is for: - Philosophers and epistemologists seeking a rigorous structural account of knowledge- Scientists and engineers who think in systems and want the same clarity applied to meaning and norms- Standardization professionals (ISO / IEC / IEEE) looking for a meta-model bridging technical and epistemic interoperability- Knowledge managers, policy-makers, and decision architects who need a shared language across disciplinesIf the 20th century gave us the architecture to connect machines, this book proposes the architecture to connect understanding.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Book Description (Amazon)What if the greatest crisis in economics isn't technical, but psychological This book challenges classical economic theory - not with a new ideology, but with a research program. It examines why systems don't collapse for lack of resources, but because the people who run them are overwhelmed: psychologically, socially, morally. In an era where material scarcity is disappearing thanks to AI, automation, and global connectivity, a different kind of scarcity is coming to light - one of maturity, sincerity, responsibility, and the ability to handle conflict.Starting with a clear-eyed diagnosis of the end of the old economy, the author develops a new economic paradigm - one built not on coercion, but on order that is voluntarily upheld. Through concrete, tangible future scenarios, the book shows how cities, institutions, and societies could function if transparency, self-responsibility, and psychological clarity replaced control and artificial scarcity.The book covers: - The structural limits of the existing economic order- A new economic system beyond classical ideologies- Concrete transition scenarios and their consequences- Risks and potential forms of abuse in new systems- Economics as order in a mature societyAccessible, non-ideological, and rigorously argued, this book invites readers to rethink economics from the inside out - starting with the human being. It is written for anyone interested in the future of economics, society, and human maturity, and willing to question established patterns of thought.Not a book of quick answers, but an invitation to think further.…
