Description:Is chemistry really so valuable that, as Theodore L. Brown (2011) and his colleagues continued to claim in the twelfth edition of their work in 2011, chemistry is athe central science, a in connecting the physical sciences with the life and applied sciences? (WK 2011 & 2011l; C. Reinhardt 2001) This crowning of chemistry, however, can be contrasted with an opposing view, as Michael Polanyi once questioned the centrality of chemistry, when he wrote that a[n]o inanimate object is ever fully determined by the laws ofa chemistry, a so other fields of study are just as important. (BQ 2011)Contrary to these conflicting views about chemistry (and other ones as will be discussed in the book), chemistry (in relation to substances and their changes) is neither possible nor desirable to the extent that the respective ideologues (on different sides) would like us to believe. This challenge to the conflicting views about chemistry does not mean, however, that chemistry is useless, or that those fields of study (related to chemistry) like astronomy, physics, geology, mathematics, material science, biology, psychology, computer science, and so on should be ignored too. Of course, neither of these extreme views is reasonable.Instead, this book provides an alternative (better) way to understand the future of chemistry, especially in the dialectic context of substances and their changesa"while learning from different approaches in the literature but without favoring any one of them (nor integrating them, since they are not necessarily compatible with each other).In other words, this book offers a new theory (that is, the creational theory of chemistry) to go beyond the existing approaches on literature in an original way.If successful, this seminal project is to fundamentally change the way that we think about chemistry, from the combined perspectives of the mind, nature, society, and culture, with enormous implications for the human future and what I originally called its apost-humana fate.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
