quantify them. This presents a dilemma between the precision of the argument and the pragmatism of applicability: a solution could be to use scales to quantify the sensations produced by certain actions or inaction. The inclusion of a system for quantification of emotions weakens the arguments soundness, as no numerical system could fully capture the complexity of emotions, while providing the necessary information to compare the consequences of actions with clarity.

Renowned scientist and philosopher Galvani was the first person to discover electrical activity in living organism in the 18th century [1]. And later the celebrated electro physiologist Hans Berger successfully recorded electrical activity from the human brain using electroencephalography (EEG), which measures voltage oscillations due to ions flow in the neurons of the brain [1]. Today, EEG is one of the popular non-invasive techniques to record brain activity in clinical and research settings,…

Perhaps the most daunting of tasks in all of human history- constructing a science of consciousness proves to challenge even the most brilliant of minds.

Introduction Chromatographic process is a separation technique which has to do with the mass transfer of test sample between a stationary and mobile phase. HPLC (High Performace Liqud Chromatography) is a vast system which involves the use of a mobile and stationary phase to separate materials. The stationary phase is usually a column packed with solids (usually silica gel) while the mobile phase is usually a solvent or a mixture of various solvents. The mobile phase usually, is the carrier of…

Soccer is the world’s most popular sport played in many countries at the professional level (Williams, 2013). The challenge to produce a winning performance at the professional level is high, with teams frequently playing one weekly match and even up to two or three matches in a week during congested periods in the competition calendar.
