English | 2018 | ISBN: 1928329020 | PDF | pages: 103 | 3.3 mb
Surat Ya Sin is the heart of the Qur’an (qalb al-Qur’an). It is the chapter (surah) of the Qur’an which is read over the dead; therefore it is a chapter of great importance to the living. Should one seek to know the meaning of life, one must experience death, for man has come from the non-physical realm and he is swiftly proceeding towards it again. Knowledge is based on opposites. Man’s apprehension of knowledge depends upon the condition of his heart. If the condition of his heart is pure and receptive, he sees perfection in every aspect of every situation he finds himself in. The Qur’an allows one to fathom the unfathomable.

Surat al-Fatiha is placed at the beginning of the Qur’an because it signifies the opening of knowledge and so the victory over ignorance. If, in the direction we are taking, there is no door, then we have reached our target – we have won. Fatiha means to open, reveal, imbue, and conquer. This surah is so named because if you follow it in your heart, you will be victorious. You will conquer and an opening will come to you.

The Nature of Scientific Innovation, Volume I


Free Download The Nature of Scientific Innovation, Volume I: Processes, Means and Impact
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031752112 | 333 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB
Innovation is a major driver of social, economic and environmental change and is researched extensively by academics from disciplines as diverse as, business, engineering, economics, sociology and psychology. On the whole, each discipline pursues its own pathway to understanding without an interdisciplinary framework that links diverse research outputs. This partite structure creates a remove from the practical realities of entrepreneurship, and the innovators who operate and perceive innovation in its entirety. This book delivers insights and creates a different framework, one that includes terminologies and typologies, greater understanding of paradigmatic influences in science, needs vs wants and demand, impact and value of knowledge, publications and patents and economic benefits. It challenges current approaches to education, research, creativity and skills development, infrastructure, investment and policy.

The Floer Memorial Volume


Free Download The Floer Memorial Volume By Ian McAllister, Peter Braam (auth.), Helmut Hofer, Clifford H. Taubes, Alan Weinstein, Eduard Zehnder (eds.)
1995 | 691 Pages | ISBN: 3034899483 | PDF | 18 MB
Andreas Floer died on May 15, 1991 an untimely and tragic death. His visions and far-reaching contributions have significantly influenced the developments of mathematics. His main interests centered on the fields of dynamical systems, symplectic geometry, Yang-Mills theory and low dimensional topology. Motivated by the global existence problem of periodic solutions for Hamiltonian systems and starting from ideas of Conley, Gromov and Witten, he developed his Floer homology, providing new, powerful methods which can be applied to problems inaccessible only a few years ago. This volume opens with a short biography and three hitherto unpublished papers of Andreas Floer. It then presents a collection of invited contributions, and survey articles as well as research papers on his fields of interest, bearing testimony of the high esteem and appreciation this brilliant mathematician enjoyed among his colleagues. Authors include: A. Floer, V.I. Arnold, M. Atiyah, M. Audin, D.M. Austin, S.M. Bates, P.J. Braam, M. Chaperon, R.L. Cohen, G. Dell’ Antonio, S.K. Donaldson, B. D’Onofrio, I. Ekeland, Y. Eliashberg, K.D. Ernst, R. Finthushel, A.B. Givental, H. Hofer, J.D.S. Jones, I. McAllister, D. McDuff, Y.-G. Oh, L. Polterovich, D.A. Salamon, G.B. Segal, R. Stern, C.H. Taubes, C. Viterbo, A.
