Wouldn't some similarities between humans and apes be considered proof of evolution? Couldn't apes and humans have shared ancestors? Why do apes' biological and behavioral characteristics resemble those of humans? Can the theory of evolution be proven if these similarities are found in other animals, or if more similarities can be found between apes and humans? I have only mentioned one correct answer that can be used to answer all such questions. This work is also available in the printed book "Faith-Saving Answers".

The Arthur M. Sackler Colloquia of the National Academy of Sciences address scientific topics of broad and current interest, cutting across the boundaries of traditional disciplines. Each year, four or five such colloquia are scheduled, typically two days in length and international in scope. Colloquia are organized by a member of the Academy, often with the assistance of an organizing committee, and feature presentations by leading scientists in the field and discussions with a hundred or more researchers with an interest in the topic. Colloquia presentations are recorded and posted on the National Academy of Sciences Sackler colloquia website and published on CD-ROM. These Colloquia are made possible by a generous gift from Mrs. Jill Sackler, in memory of her husband, Arthur M. Sackler.

A remarkable investigation into the hominoids of Flores Island, their place on the evolutionary spectrum—and whether or not they still survive. While doing fieldwork on the remote Indonesian island of Flores, anthropologist Gregory Forth came across people talking about half-apelike, half-humanlike creatures that once lived in a cave on the slopes of a nearby volcano. Over the years he continued to record what locals had to say about these mystery hominoids while searching for ways to explain them as imaginary symbols of the wild or other cultural representations. Then along came the ‘hobbit’. In 2003, several skeletons of a small-statured early human species alongside stone tools and animal remains were excavated in a cave in western Flores. Named Homo floresiensis, this ancient hominin was initially believed to have lived until as recently as 12,000 years ago— possibly overlapping with the appearance of Homo sapiens on Flores. In view of this timing and the striking resemblance of floresiensis to the mystery creatures described by the islanders, Forth began to think about the creatures as possibly reflecting a real species, either now extinct but retained in ‘cultural memory’ or even still surviving. He began to investigate reports from the Lio region of the island where locals described 'ape-men' as still living. Dozens claimed to have even seen them. In Between Ape and Human, we follow Forth on the trail of this mystery hominoid, and the space they occupy in islanders’ culture as both natural creatures and as supernatural beings. In a narrative filled with adventure, Lio culture and language, zoology and natural history, Forth comes to a startling and controversial conclusion. Unique, important, and thought-provoking, this book will appeal to anyone interested in human evolution, the survival of species (including our own) and how humans might relate to ‘not-quite-human’ animals. Between Ape and Human is essential reading for all those interested in cryptozoology, and it is the only firsthand investigation by a leading anthropologist into the possible survival of a primitive species of human into recent times—and its coexistence with modern humans.

For many years, experiments using chimpanzees have been instrumental in advancing scientific knowledge and have led to new medicines to prevent life-threatening and debilitating diseases. However, recent advances in alternate research tools have rendered chimpanzees largely unnecessary as research subjects. The Institute of Medicine, in collaboration with the National Research Council, conducted an in-depth analysis of the scientific necessity for chimpanzees in NIH-funded biomedical and behavioral research. The committee concludes that while the chimpanzee has been a valuable animal model in the past, most current biomedical research use of chimpanzees is not necessary, though noted that it is impossible to predict whether research on emerging or new diseases may necessitate chimpanzees in the future.

A New York Times bestseller: "A passionate and convincing case for the sophistication of nonhuman minds." —Alison Gopnik, The Atlantic Hailed as a classic, Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? explores the oddities and complexities of animal cognition—in crows, dolphins, parrots, sheep, wasps, bats, chimpanzees, and bonobos—to reveal how smart animals really are, and how we’ve underestimated their abilities for too long. Did you know that octopuses use coconut shells as tools, that elephants classify humans by gender and language, and that there is a young male chimpanzee at Kyoto University whose flash memory puts that of humans to shame? Fascinating, entertaining, and deeply informed, de Waal’s landmark work will convince you to rethink everything you thought you knew about animal—and human—intelligence.

The Development of an Extraordinary Species We human beings share 98 percent of our genes with chimpanzees. Yet humans are the dominant species on the planet -- having founded civilizations and religions, developed intricate and diverse forms of communication, learned science, built cities, and created breathtaking works of art -- while chimps remain animals concerned primarily with the basic necessities of survival. What is it about that two percent difference in DNA that has created such a divergence between evolutionary cousins? In this fascinating, provocative, passionate, funny, endlessly entertaining work, renowned Pulitzer Prize–winning author and scientist Jared Diamond explores how the extraordinary human animal, in a remarkably short time, developed the capacity to rule the world . . . and the means to irrevocably destroy it.

I intended to compile all of my works written before 2023 under one roof. However, I did not wish to include my books in this work, which have the same task but include politics. These works are: "The Return of Jesus" and "Armies of the Heavens." Except for these two works, all titles were collected in this work. What will this work give you? First, it will allow you to see the events of the universe through the eyes of wisdom. We are living in the end times. We live in a terrifying time when keeping faith is as difficult as holding a burning fire. We must demonstrate the same sensitivity that we use to protect our bodies from viruses in order to protect our hearts and faith from doubting arrows. If the virus kills us, our temporary world ends. However, if we lose faith, we endanger our eternal life. While this work answers doubting questions, it also serves as a template for similar questions that will be raised in the coming years and decades. The most important topics of the book "Human and Universe, Science and Religion" can be listed as follows: A Glimpse to the Unseen Realms: Prophecy: How Can Soothsayers Predict the Future? Since no one but Allah knows the future, how come the prophecies of some soothsayers always come true? How come the news of soothsayers like Nostradamus about the future always comes true? What is the difference between a saint predicting the future and a soothsayers' predicting the future? Who was the person who foretold the Ottoman State before its establishment? What's the secret of shooting stars? You will find the answers to the questions that confuse you in this section... Understanding the Presence of the Spirit: This work will help the minds to get rid of delusions and doubts about the soul... Unmaterial Molds: Even a simple house cannot exist by itself. So where is the engineer and architect of this enormous universe palace full of antique arts? What mold do these wonderful animate and inanimate objects come out of? How astonishing are the countless events that we witness at every moment? So why aren't we amazed? Could it be because we got used to it and it became commonplace to us? Big Crunch: Invisible Apocalyptic Machines The Hour is near. The countdown to the apocalypse has begun. It's like a ticking time bomb with ten seconds to go off. That's why we experience the truth that time speeds up when the apocalypse approaches. From time to time, different fields of the scientific world make statements such as, "A thousand years later, our earth will be in this situation; 10 million years later, the sun will be like this; this country will be in this situation, etc." What if I told you that the world doesn't have a life span of 200 years? We are about to count down to the apocalypse according to universe time. The Prophet (PBUH) said: "The lifespan of my Ummah will not extend past 1500 years." I'm sure the scientific truths revealed by the Qur'an and the prophet (PBUH) fourteen centuries ago astounded you. Your astonishment will grow even stronger as you read this book. How will the apocalypse break out? What are the possible apocalyptic scenarios with a scientific and heavenly approach? -Can God Create a Rock He Cannot Lift? -Quantum to Ether In this section, I mentioned the relationship between theories such as string and quantum with the name Al-Qayyum. I also discussed the mystery of the ether substance. ... Note: All titles in this book will continue to be available individually.
