Hardcover. Zustand: New. n this work, an attempt is made to analyse Kant's concept of moral faith. Kant famously declares that human reason must deny knowledge to make room for faith. Although theoretical reason cannot offer cognition of God or proof of God's existence, practical consideration can justify a belief, at least for moral action, that there is a Wise, Benevolent, and Just Providence ordering the world. Morality requires us to set an end that theoretical reason gives us insufficient grounds to believe is attainable. We are thus threatened with an incoherence between our practical volition and our justified beliefs and assertions about the world. The only reasonable way to resolve this practical problem regarding the possibility of the highest good is to go beyond what theoretical reason can affirm about this idea and postulate to the existence of its object.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. With eight sister states, each with very unique identities in terms of ethnicity, food, language, culture, the whole of the northeast has been and still remains a politically vital and strategically vulnerable region of India. Increasingly, subsequent to interactions with non-tribal communities and excess immigration, indigenous communities have been facing threats and are close to social exclusion in the country. Due to this threat of exclusion, the northeast region has, over the years, witnessed emergence of unemployment, poverty and extremist organizations challenging the sovereignty, integrity and the development of the region. This selected volume is a greater collection of 13 peer reviewed articles to identify and address the issues of Ethnicity, Culture and Development of the people of North East India in proper perspective. The present book endeavors to find the actual issues of ethnicity, culture and development of the region in development perspectives and reckoned that the book will provide an avenue for discussion and new research directions.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This unique book brings together high-quality research contributions on ecological aspects of urbanization, water quality concerns in an urban environment, and climate change issues with a strong Indian focus under one umbrella. It includes several case studies that discuss urban water management, particularly highlighting the quality aspects. Urbanization is an ecological disturbance that the modern world accepts as essential in the absence of a better alternative that could provide an equal level of comfort. The prohibitive costs of eco-friendly production technologies are forcing the developing world to generate industrial waste that is detrimental to the environment. At the same time, the availability of adequate fresh water is another challenge for our climate-change impacted world. The scientific community is, therefore, searching for ways towards ecologically sustainable urban development. Discussing all these issues, this book offers a useful guide for academicians, researchers, practicing engineers, and managers dealing with diverse water-related problems in urban areas.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The book brings together high-quality research articles on advanced hydrological analysis, advanced computational methods, and the ecological and sociological aspects of urban watershed management under one umbrella. The rapid pace of urbanization, not accompanied by any farsighted, holistic plan, has reduced many cities in the developing world into multi-hazard areas. The most perceptible consequence of urbanization is the change in land-use and land cover, which in turn impacts hydrological systems. Accordingly, scientific studies on urban hydrology with due emphasis on ecological and sociological aspects under changing climate are vital to the appropriate design of urban landscapes and civil infrastructure works. This book addresses precisely these issues, offering a useful guide for environmentalists, hydrologists, and a broad range of socio-economic scientists exploring the environmental vulnerabilities arising from urbanization.
