Human condition

Locke’s Essays on Human Understanding continue to be taught, discussed and debated today. In particular, Locke’s personal identity theory is considered to still be extremely relevant in modern times. In personal identity theory Locke explains the distinction between the definition of words, such as human, person and substance, which he claims are often used to convey the same meaning. Then Locke discusses the main factor that suggests the sameness of personal identity – consciousness, and…

The victims were treated inferior simply because of their nationality. The Nazi’s made it a point to degrade these people in every way possible by taking away their rights and free will.…

if the cross sectional area of the atrium is high and the HRR of fire is small, smoke column will not create in the atrium and floding flow will not occur to vent smoke. Figure ‎2.8 Flow at the early stage of adjacent floor fire[13]. Table ‎2.4 Conditions of each simulation [13]. By watching the calculation results dynamic display, then the time and location of the flooding flow can be obtained.Floding flow did not occur till the simulation end time at 800 second in the atria with size…

Jock Itch Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a fungal infection of the skin in the groin area. It is sometimes called ringworm even though it is not caused by worms.

It usually goes away in 2–3 weeks with treatment. CAUSES The fungus that causes jock itch may be spread by: • Touching a fungus infection elsewhere on your body, such as athlete's…

Formal Lab Report: Molar Volume of a Gas at STP Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to find out how to experimentally determine what the volume of a mole of H₂(g) is at STP by using gas laws. The hypothesis for the experiment is that if H₂(g) is produced at RT and STP, Avogadro’s law can be used to experimentally determine the amount of H₂(g) because equal gases at the same pressure and temperature have the same amount of particles. In order to find the molar volume, hydrogen gas…

rash. Only certain types of fungi present (glow) under this light. Lastly, the skin culture test. This test identifies what fungus is causing the skin infection. The skin culture test is only performed when it’s a difficult diagnosis or the skin condition was not responding to treatment. The skin culture test can take up to four weeks because the fungus needs time to…

argues that when understanding our primary functions as “rational animals” is followed by applying it in life, it leads to achieving fulfillment and intrinsic happiness (Aristotle, 349 BC). However, Aristotle’s disillusionment on the understanding our human function does not prove to be stable basis in the realistic application of his philosophical views. Tackling this topic will be done by drawing a similarity between Aristotle’s ideologies about the contemplation of rational beings, with…

means all humans who live in this earth, and they are called in our contemporary life "persons." She begins her argument by saying that biologists do not have the final say regarding what makes us persons, so the philosophers must be placed in the account as well. Baker explains that neither souls, minds, bodies are what makes us special. The first person perspective is the only standard to be a person. To start, Baker seems to agree that we can be animals, but ontologically unique. The human…
