In this passage from John M. Barry’s book, The Great Influenza, an account of the 1918 flu epidemic, he writes about scientists and their research. Barry’s purpose is to have his reader question everything so that reality can be found in the end. He utilizes the use of anaphora, imagery, extended metaphor, and rhetorical questions to make the reader reflect in a scientific way. To set the stage, Barry starts off by structuring his first paragraph anaphorically to give the reader two…

The existence of God has been a question that has plagued mankind since the beginning of time and it is a question that has divided numerous philosophers throughout history. In this essay, I will critically evaluate Richard Swinburne’s cosmological argument which can be found in this book is there a god? Richard Swinburne states that his book is trying “To reach a conclusion about whether, on balance the arguments indicate that there is a God or that there is not." Richard Swinburne attempts to…

Humans are some of the most evolved species in the world who have several ways of communicating or expressing themselves to others. Some of these ways that humans use to express themselves can be a form of physical activity, writing, speaking or through art. Out of those four things art is the most complicated thing to understand because the individual is seeing an idea from the perspective of someone else and is attempting to understand what the creator was thinking or what message the artist…

When the name “Case Western Reserve University” is mentioned, a myriad of subjects come to mind: research, science, engineering, breakthroughs, and technology, to name a few. In our great university, there seems to be a wider appreciation among students for the sciences than for the humanities -- this does not come as a surprise considering that CWRU is primarily a research university, and faculty and students have been conducting magnificent and ground-breaking scientific research for decades.…

A variety of theories have been put forward to deliver and implement for their purposefulness in terms of explaining the natural truth and even physical sciences. Obviously, nursing discipline also have been developed their knowledge using deductive and inductive methods for generating nursing theory to enhance the better care. Before exploring the distinction between the theory, theoretical framework, and conceptual framework, the becoming information will describe the definition of those terms…

As I noted earlier, Why Nations Fail minces no words with respect to the geography and particularly Diamond’s argument. While Acemoglu and Robinson do admit that it “is a powerful approach to the puzzle on which he focuses,” they dismiss it offhand because it cannot be extended to explain “modern world inequality,” or regional/intracontinental disparities (52). It is here that they lose a huge opportunity by falling into fallacious reasoning. Geography played an initial roll — just because it…

According to this theory, when it rained and water mixed with dirt to make mud, the mud then made worms. Other examples include the generation of lice from sweat, mice from dirty hay and/or corn, and the list goes on. Many people used to believe in the theory of ‘Spontaneous generation’ because it explained such occurrences as the appearance of maggots on decaying meat. Spontaneous generation…

Hypothesis- Science Fair Name: Gustavo Hernandez Date: Nov.28.2015 Partner: N/A Experimental Question, Independent Variable, and Dependent Variable: Do video games affect memory? Memory is an incredible thing and some parts of it we do not even understand, so in this new era with video games rising in popularity and being in many different households do video games affect gaming? The testing will be done by manipulating a game playing time between studying and taking a quiz. A test subject will…

Change detection is a famous theory that was first presented by Dr. Ronald A. Rensink. One of the central problems change detection was set out to solve was a change blindness, the obliviousness to change in particular visual stimuli. Explicitly, an individual can be presented with identical photographs, but one has a minor difference. Change blindness is regarded as the cause if a participant doesn't manage to discern the change between the pictures. In a study conducted by (Rensink, 2002)…

Richard Dawkins is trying to argue that reality can be proven by scientific evidence and magic is used when we do not know why something happen the way they do. We classify something as real when proven by our five senses. However, “we are able to develop new technology and extend the reach of our senses. For example, a microscope to prove that bacteria does exist”. Although, we cannot see microbes with our naked eyes we can use an instrument to see it. Dawkins only believes in poetic magic,…
