Essays on Human

Theatre offers a platform of expression which is thought-provoking and flexible. This makes it possible for audiences to empathize with each other and with the performers regardless of pre-existing cultural differences. In the words of Soyini Madison, a performance studies scholar, “performance becomes the vehicle by which we travel to the worlds of subjects and enter dialogue with one another.” I have found several instances in movies, comedy shows, songs, dances, recitations and dramas where different directors bend the actors’ actions to very divergent wills. Theatrical acts enable individuals to travel from self to others regardless of the cultural ...

Abortion refers to voluntary termination of pregnancy through removing the Uterus of the embryo or fetus prior to viability. In many countries, human abortion is illegal. Many people who oppose abortion rely on the argument that a fetus is a human being from since conception. On Contrary Judith Jarvis Thomson differs with this view and give several examples as a way of proving her point. From Judith's point of view, she argues that a fetus is not a human being from the time of conception. She likens a fetus to acorns which develops top become oak trees. She argued ...

The course on art therapy, Reiki and spirituality as alternative ways of keeping good health has a lot of impacts on human lifestyles. Spirituality is basically participation in religion such as attending synagogue, churches and mosques. It could also be through undertaking practices such as meditation, yoga and reflection. Spirituality is an important aspect of keeping good health. People believe that their faith in religion can help maintain good health. For instance, Christians would pray for good health and have faith that they will be healthy. Spirituality in form of yoga and meditation also help the human body relax ...

Hume and Bergeson were philosophical scientists who are remembered for their contributions on humanity nature. Bergerson’s philosophy advocated for the fact that a person has a free will, which is conceived within their hearts. The basis of their decision is therefore based on what they feel rather than what they see. The imaginative nature of humanity is responsible for all creative that is seen in the world. Hume on the other hand emphasized the ...

Science has permeated several aspects of people’s lives. Every little thing uses one scientific principle or the other. Therefore, science does not exist in a vacuum. This paper focuses on Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology as one area of science. Apart from exploring how DNA got discovered and how this technology can be applied in the real world, the paper also focuses on the influence philosophy has had on the contextual development of DNA technology. It will be worth noting that DNA technology is quickly taking center stage in various aspects of our lives. As with other modern advances, ...

The recruitment process usually starts with the recognition for the need for a given skills or mix of skills. This means that the onset of the recruitment starts with the concerned department. For instance, the finance department, on realization that there is a need for an extra accountant would inform the human resources department of such need.

The job description and job specification are therefore agreed and drafted by the department concerned department head (finance) together with the human resources manager.
In designing the job description and specification, the job is critically analyzed; the deliverables properly documented in such ...

Human beings often seek the companionship of animals and have been known to develop strong emotional bonds with them over long term interactions. Of all domesticated animals, cats and dogs are known to be the most popular pets. While cat owners and dogs owners can indulge in a never ending debate about which animal makes a better pet, cats and dogs themselves have several similarities and even more dissimilarities.

Once one goes beyond these similarities, cats and dogs are full of differences. To begin with, cats have retractable claws that allows them to stay sharp, while a dog’s ...

The poem entitled “I Ask It,” written by a renowned Aztec poet Nezahualcoyotl is a very short piece, though very potent as it touches upon profound human truths of existence and being, which is actually what the Aztec religion concerned itself with. The Aztec people understood their place on earth; that all life is transitory, and that humans are not granted the life cycle of nature, which is to die and be reborn every spring. The life of a human being is merely a speck in time, barely perceptible, and their fate is subject to the whimsies of the ...

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow a successful American poet whose works carry a lot of sentimentalism. Sentimentalism is the act of stimulating tender emotional responses towards a given work of art that are not really due that work. Wadsworth successfully brings out this aspect especially in A Psalm of Life. “ tell me not in mournful numbers, life is but an empty dream (Longfellow n.p).” The two lines bring out a sense of hopelessness that there is no much meaning to life no matter how hard we attempt to live. Wadsworth was trying to show human beings the vagueness in life and ...

The famous aboriginal personality whom I have chosen for the assessment on aboriginal personalities is David Unaipon. David Ngunaitponi or David Unaipon as he later came to be known as was born on 28 September, 1872 at Raukkan Mission in the Coorong region of South Australia. Being the fourth of the nine children of his parents James and Nymbulda Ngunaitponi, Unaipon started formal education at 7 from Point McLeay Mission School.

After being forced to leave school at the age of 13 he was then forced to work as a bootmaker. But, after his marriage to Katherine Carter, a ...

Existence of God

In the general sphere of religion, there are many conflicting issues pertaining to existence of God. This is mainly caused by the different ways in which religious faiths interpret the existence of God. However some other aspects of the existence of God are universally accepted across the different religious faiths. Some of these aspects are: omnipresence, all powerful, the creator and the Supreme Being (www.existence-of-god.com, paragraph 3).

Looking at some basic facts that are evident across all these arguments, there is a universal acceptance that God has unknown origin to human knowledge. This fact is supported by the fact ...

Set in the fictional world of Middle Earth, J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring is a seemingly well-woven tale about the relationships emerging from the race of men and the realm of mythical creatures such as elves, dwarves, wizards and etc. Its ingenuity comes from the striking resemblance of the values and practices of Middle Earth creatures to that of modern day beings, touching on the delicate issues of morality, the ability to distinguish good from bad, and human nature.

In the story, even with divergent traditions and cultures, we see that mythical ...

PART I-TAKE AWAY ELEMENTS THAT ADDED TO MY UNDERSTANDING OF PSYCHOLOGY

Social psychology offered me the most take away elements that I feel will help me in my professional and personal life experiences. Social psychology helped me understand the relationship between the individual and his or her social situation. I have struggled to understand people’s personalities. I have always had certain perceptions and views about people’s behavior. I always disparaged and undermined people who did not behave in a manner that I considered a sulk to the moral fiber. I have understood how situations influence a person’s thoughts, emotions, and behavior, as well as how a person ...

After a hard day of work, every person longs for peace and quiet, for the sound of closing the door from the inside and becoming one with the peaceful refuge that is called home. However, not all homes provide the same amount of this soothing emotion, so essential to human happiness. Some homes lack color, vibrancy, emotions, life, that delightfully cozy essence. This is the reason why I decided to become an interior designer, to be able to help people make their home a true place of refuge and contentment, where their field of vision would rest on soothing ...

Since advancement of technology to an extent where human beings could be cloned, ethics of human cloning have become a debatable issue. Those who advocate and those against have strong reasons to support their opinion. This is an ethics paper where I am presented with a dilemma of saving my sisters life or standing by what I strongly believe in.
Cloning presents a serious advancement in technology and would be of great benefit to the field of science and medicine. For example, if cloning was done and proved successful, my sister Dee Dee would be cured of her disease, ...

Question 1

The essay discusses about psychology and its relation to science in the 19th century. Psychology is an applied discipline that encompasses the scientific study of the functions and the behaviors of the mind. The main objective of psychology is to understand individuals or a group as it establishes the general principles and also it researches about the unique cases.

In the beginning psychology was not regarded as a branch of science. This changed when psychologists realized that they can apply the scientific methodologies in the study of the human mind and the behavior to come up with ...

1. Comparing the two sculptures, a lot of similarities appear considering the aspects of classical art. Some of the similarities includes:
a. Both are in human form and are used to explain a certain aspect of classical art.
b. Both depict people who are believed to have had supernatural aspects and powers (bronze stature depicts a Greek god while the Laocoon depicts of a priest who attempted to destroy a holy sculpture and was subjected to torture by the gods).
c. Both communicate a lot about beauty of human body and do not attempt to hide any part of ...

Chemical and Biological Agents and Radiation

Hydrogen cyanide (HCN): HCN is a highly toxic chemical blood agent in the form of a colorless gas. Cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory and thyroid effects can occur as a result of chronic low exposure to HCN (Blanc, Hogan, Hryhorczuk, Hessl & Bernard, 1985). In case of exposure to liquid HCL, mild soapy water can be used for decontamination. Either sodium or amyl nitrite combined with sodium thiosulfate can be can be used as an antidote for the effects of HCN poisoning (USAMRICD, 2000). Treating patients with poor oxygen-carrying capacity can be a bit challenging ...

During the early years, a spirit of exploration developed amongst individuals. Governments and individuals began funding explorations into new lands. The need for exploration was driven by diverse aspects. Among these included the need for new trade routes, spirit of adventure, and a search for new colonies. In addition, some voyages were carried out in search of wealth. During the various voyages, the explorers’ correspondence in the form of letters served as an avenue for divulging information regarding the various discoveries. Explorers were awed by the various discoveries that included the discovery of new people, lands, and experience of ...

Personal transformation refers to a dynamic and uniquely individualized practice of increasing consciousness where individuals turn out to be critically knowledgeable of old, as well as new self-views, thereby choosing to integrate these opinions to a new self-definition (Campebell, 2004). Although these views might take the form of Transpersonal Psychology, Taoism, Contemplative Psychology or Confucianism, they are capable of distinctively conceiving the temperament of human existence thus transforming the individual differently (Campebell, 2004). As a result, this essay explores personal transformation through the various perspectives of Transpersonal Psychology, Taoism, Contemplative Psychology and Confucianism.

In a family, the task of raising and educating children from birth or even before birth to the time the time such children become of majority age rests on the parents (Ambert, 16). Similarly, in the animal kingdom the animals take care of their young ones, provide them with the physical needs, and protect them until they can take care of themselves. In the human race however, things are a little different. For instance, in the animal kingdom the young ones are only raised by their biological parents. It is rare to find an animal raising the young one ...

Introduction

Nursing is generally concerned with care. As such all characteristics analyzed about this discipline should relate to the concept of care. This task aims at analyzing four major attributes of nursing in relation to a story of personal experience. The attributes to be analyzed in this case include loving kindness; patience; commitment; and openness/attendance to mysterious and unknown happenings of life and death or allowing miracles to take their course. The aim of this paper is particularly to provide insights into what is expected of a nurse in caring for and about persons in need. The story being ...

The article ‘Dark Side of Everest Awaits Climbers,’ by Brian Handwerk has its key focus on an ethical dilemma that has to face a climber at some point in the act of climbing the famous Mount Everest. This is the world’s tallest mountain. It is not easy to reach the top of the mountain. At the same time, all climbers who go beyond the height of 8000 meters have to face the difficulty of insufficient oxygen as well as several other health complications. On the other hand, reaching the summit of the Everest marks one of the greatest ...

1. Definition of the problem

Human Resource (HR) is one of the important intangible factors which contribute to long term achievements of a company; however HR professionals (HRPs) lack the ability to devise and apply successful course of action in line with vision and mission of an organization. The world of business is extremely active where marketplace changes rapidly, today’s updates are tomorrow’s outdates which has turned the role of HRM towards Strategic HRM (SHRM) consequently the role of HRPs to be more strategic than before.

In "Some Moral Minima," Lenn Goodman argues that there are certain things that are simply wrong. Do you think Goodman is right? Using specific examples, explore the challenges Goodman presents to relativism. Determine whether you think there are such universal moral requirements, and defend your answer in a well-argued three-page paper.

Lenn Goodman is correct that by modern legal and ethical standards, certain actions like murder, rape, genocide, wars of aggression, use of weapons of mass destruction, and slavery are always wrong. To be sure, they were widely practiced in the past and still exist in the present, but ...

A human resource manager is an individual charged with the responsibility of managing an organizations labor force. He or she is assigned the task of selecting, assessing through constant monitoring, training and recognition of employees based on their performance and conduct at work. Human resource management as a practice is utilitarian in its ethical aims in that employment opportunities have been designed to promote the interests of the employing organization without consideration of the employee’s hopes and achievements in mind. It would therefore be more ethical and a more strategic approach in managing people based upon long-term planning ...

C.S. Lewis wrote, in the essay entitled The Law of Human Nature, that our sense of right and wrong is what binds us together as human beings but the question is whether he is correct or not. Upon some consideration, it would seem that he has a valid argument. We are all within a society that imposes a fairly standardised set of basic laws, regardless of the culture: do not steal, do not harm others, and respect others. Lewis claims that we our bound together by our desire to live up to those social expectations and that those of ...

1. The function of Bentham’s hedonistic calculus is to provide a moral theory of what is right and wrong, based on the idea that what gives the most pleasure and happiness and the least pain to the world is the correct action. An example of how to use this theory is for legislators to create laws that would cause more suffering and pain to criminals than the pleasure their crime provided. An advantage of using the calculus is tries to provide the best results for the most people. The inherent problem with the the calculus is that some ...

Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay entitled “Self-Reliance” is one that praises the notions of non-conformity, stating that only the brave ones have the power to say no to the hypnotic influence of the masses. When a man believes in himself, knows what he must do and gives his voice enough potency to be heard, he has the power to live a rich and fulfilling life, simultaneously revealing spiritual and philosophical essence of life itself.

As one of the major philosophers of the movement referred to as Transcendentalism, Ralph Waldo Emerson delves deep into the notion of the human self, ...

The concept of Strategic Human Resource Management has attracted a lot of attention from scholars and practitioners since it came to the surface in the mid 1980s. Strategic Human Resource Management has replaced the word “Personnel Management” in the field of Human Resource. Moreover, scholars agree that Human Resource Management is the right approach to managing people at the work place since it meets the requirement of what ...

There are various theories of human development, each of which has a different approach in explaining maturity and human development. The theories have different definitions and explanations of being human. The theories also focus on the ways on how to understand human response to collective working and to challenges in life. It is important that individuals, especially managers, have a clear understanding of these theories. This will help them to have in depth insights and ways with which they can apply in order to an effective work force that will accomplish the organization’s objectives. The manager will also ...

“Our viewpoints on philosophical issues are shaped by our fundamental values and beliefs.” Discuss in the light of the viewpoints given. Life is transient. The world will eventually perish someday. My cardinal value is based on this one notion, a confirmed belief that the world is bound to collapse someday. However, at the present hour, when everything seems real, the only virtues that stay by your side are temperance, courage, justice and wisdom. These are the cardinal values that tend to govern the entire life of a human. My life has been shaped by these four basic virtues.

It is true that food has been used to satisfy the many and complex needs of human beings. The nutritional needs of humans have been met through the nutrients that humans extract from the meals that they have. It is true that needs such as temperature regulation, sleep and arousal, sickness, reproductive needs and control needs related to food ways are well explained. Sexual needs, on the other hand, depend much more on other things as compared to their relation to food. This is because sexual needs are more dependent on environment and culture than the diet of individuals.

Understanding oneself is the way to happiness. Philosophy as taught by Socrates helps people turn inwards and in the process better themselves. Socrates apology is an account of the speech he made in a trial when he was being charged with not recognizing the gods that the state recognized. Instead, according to his accusers, he invented new gods and corrupted the youth in Athens. This speech is, however, not an apology as the modern meaning of the word suggests. The word apology in the speech is derived from the Greek word apologia that means a speech made in defense ...

Human life is governed by morals, ethics and principles, the basis of which we are not aware of still. We do know however that human life requires a set of ethics and codes in order to function in harmony with one another and thereby developed them over time. G.E. Moore (1912) explores the basis of the emotive theory, an analysis on whether our set of ethics and moral judgements are based only on feelings as is believed. In order to do so Moore (1912) explores the various grounds that our ethics can be based on.

If we look at ...

Arguably, human sexuality is very important in development and growth of human beings. As a matter of fact, human sexuality evolves from one stage to another as people grow. Each stage has various characteristics, challenges and effect that mould individual sexual behaviors.

AREA OF STUDY

I would like to conduct a study related to the issue of work place diversity. Since this is a broad area, I will concentrate on work place diversity by studying two groups: Gen X-Y and Baby Boomers. Gen X-Y includes people born from 1965-2000; while Baby Boomers are those born from 1945-1964. I will analyze the impacts of these two groups on the effectiveness of a company. Job satisfaction and work life balance will be the elements used to highlight the differences and similarities between the two groups being studied.

An old person is one who can make a sound decision on key issues. He/she is a person who commands respect at all levels of the society. This definition is based on the fact that only a few people live for more than 80 years and most leaders i.e. presidents, special UN envoys, ambassadors, etc range between 50-75 years of age. This was the opinion of 57 years old man. In fact, most countries have a set minimum age below which you cannot hold a certain office, mostly 35 years. Different people have a wide range factors and physical ...

Wrongful Death

Wrongful death is a legal term used to describe the death of a human being due to the negligence or misconduct of another individual, company or entity. A suit for wrongful death can only be brought by members of the immediate family, usually the spouse, child, or parent of the deceased. Every state has its own civil statutes that dictate the procedures for a suit of wrongful death. Actions for personal injury, conscious pain and suffering, or expenses related to the decedent's death, may be appended to an action for wrongful death.

The particular circumstances surrounding the death of ...

Human organism represents a complex structure consisting of organs that interact in such a way that humans can live, breathe and perform all the functions that they need. But the organs as we can see them now (see Figure 1) haven’t always been the way they are now. In order to create such a system, thousands of years of evolution were required, which allowed people to have such a system of organs that would perfectly suit the environment and respond to its main factors in optimal way.

In order to clearly see the evolution of human body, it ...

Scenarios are informal narrative descriptions, which are used to describe human tasks or activities that allow for the discussion and exploration of requirements, needs, and contexts (Rogers et al., 2007). They do not provide an explicit description of the way that a technological support or a software application is used to complete a task. However, they make use of the stories told by users, which describe the tasks that they need to ...

Food webs contain a delicate balance of species that when allowed to run naturally will result in fluctuations in population sizes such that the number of surviving predators depends on the number of prey available. As environmental conditions such as weather patterns change so does the potential for changes in population sizes. Humans have assumed a stewardship role with respect to the environment and tend to want to keep populations of various animals constant so the environment is easier to manage. This is one reason why humans now hunt various species such as deer, duck, wolf, and bear.

Question 1

Localization is driven by the cultural environment, institutional environment, the maturity of the organization size, the mode of operation as well as the subsidiary role. The environmental and institutional environment factor of the firm determines the management of people with a respect to their culture as well as the policy to have them work for the firm in that context. The maturity of the firm size determines the number of employees to be recruited and the needs of the firm they will fulfill. The mode of operation determines the working conditions and the skills required of the human resource. ...

A lifecycle model is a representation of “a model that captures a set of activities and how they are related” (Rogers et al., 2007, p. 444). Three of the lifecycle models used in HCI are the Star lifecycle; the Usability Engineering lifecycle; and the ISO 13407 Human-centered design processes for interactive systems.

The Star lifecycle model has its origins in empirical work that aimed to understand how designers dealt with HCI design problems. It has ...

Question One

The tendencies being referred to are the tendencies of human beings to care, help and support each other. Human beings have emotions and are self conscious. They have love for each other and will find it ethical to be concerned about each other. It is true that human beings and other apes have the capacity to be concerned about others. Apes and man belong to the same classification of primates. They have a well developed and high intelligent quotient that they find it logical to be caring about fellow humans or apes. They are all social animals, living as ...

Describe a virtual agent/assistant (i.e. Anna at Ikea.com, Microsoft "Clippy"). What does it do? What is its appearance like (realistic or cartoon)? How does it communicate with the user (text or speech or both)? Is it helpful to you in completing a task? Is it "persuasive"?

Interactive designers aim at developing interactive systems that bring forth positive responses from the users (Rogers et al., 2007), including responses such as making the users feel motivated to play, learn, be social, and be creative.

Virtual agents are one of the interactive interface elements that interactive designers use to ...

This paper will argue that despite habit, custom, and the existence of God, one does not know in fact if the future will be a resemblance of the past. Basing on the works of famous philosophers Immanuel Kant and David Hume, we’ll come to the conclusion that no one can foresee one’s future even on the basis of strict knowledge of the past and even having habits and customs that presumably have to ...

In Plato's Justice from the ``Republic,'' Thrasymachus believes justice is ``really the good of another, the advantage of the stronger and the ruler, and harmful to the one who obeys and serve (Westphal 45).'' This was because he believed that a just man doesn't profit as much as that of an unjust person. A just man follows the law and does good but he ends up being at the losing end if compared to an unjust person who in simple terms end up the one getting the guns, the gold and the glory. That is why he ...

Part One

Dehumanization of society refers to the mistreatments of the people in the society. In this case, people are treated like animals either in their work-place or any place they live or stay. From the books by both Ritzer and Ehrenreich, dehumanization is shown clearly. In Ritzer’s book, he depicts dehumanization acts in the society, most especially at the working places.

Here we find bureaucracy systems as Ritzer tells us, uses rationality concepts but in the end results to irrationality, as a concept of functioning. This rationalism is linked to bureaucracy, since bureaucracy has made people be seen ...

Responsibility, continuous learning, holistic development and not forgetting to give back to the community are values that I strongly believe in.

The study examined the effects cared for pets have on mood, relaxation and the ability to control emotions. It is limited to aged patients requiring varying levels of skilled nursing care.  Their ages were, 15-50 years.  Ethnicity or Gender did not limit the range. Only 56 participants were men while 242 participants we women, this limited the data extrapolation to men who have a stronger compulsion for affection; thus the ability to oversimplify their results is limited to other comparable populations.

The study demonstrates that the student’s felt more relaxed with the more pets that they owned. While ...

Abstract

Geology has evolved into a very imperative discipline of science. Humankind's dependability on geology is clearly reflected by the changing attitudes towards the same.

Geology is a field that studies the Earth its formation and the process involved and includes sciences such as mineralogy, geodesy and stratigraphy. Right from minerals, precious stones and ...

This is a historically challenging project management responsibility, hence, in designing it I must keep in mind significant aspects related to the time and the reason for building this ark. In the “Book of Genesis” an episode is dedicated to Noah’s Ark. God was disappointed by the grieve and the artfulness of his own creation, the humankind, that he decided to throw upon them the Great Flood. He also decided to let one man and his family alive, because they were dedicated to Him, considering in the same time to preserve the mankind species. God also intended to ...

Motivational Theory and Socio-Cultural Theoretical Approaches

Social psychology refers to a discipline that studies human interaction using scientific methods that help determine issues of perception, social influence and general interaction. Examples of sociological theories include motivational theories, social cultural theories among others. In order to explain some of this these theories we will consider the case of looting of shops and homes after a natural disaster. The occurrence of such incidences can be explained by using the motivational and socio-cultural theories in psychology (Haggis, 2009, p.378).
According to the motivational theory, many individuals tend to behave in a given ...

Introduction

The computer language is different from the human language. This is as a result to the difference in the tools that the computer uses to recognize and understand the objects and scenarios. These tools are always different from the senses that human beings use. The ability of a computer to recognize and understand objects as well as follow the commands of the user is referred to as computer vision. This is enabled by various applications among them remote recognition, face recognition, optical card recognition and image recognition. This paper is an appraisal of remote recognition as an application of ...
