PHILOSOPHY AND SCIENCE DESCRIPTION OF THE BOOK SERIES From the depths of the centuries, when man acquired an evolutionarily sufficient brain, the most developed brain of all other animals, in order to acquire self-consciousness, at one point he wondered: "Why do I exist? Why do I live? Why should I be born? Why should I die? " These questions remain unanswered to this day. There is no scientific answer from the rational animal "human", which, as we now know for sure with scientific knowledge, evolved from the Australopithecus. In 1924, British anthropologist Raymond Dart discovered a 2.8- to 3.8-million-year-old skull in an East African quarry. He named his find the Australopithecus because it was found in the southern regions (Austral) of East Africa. However, the study of other fossils found in various parts of Africa (such as Australopithecus bosei) showed that the Australopithecus is one of the direct ancestors of humans, as based on its characteristics it is placed in Humans, the family of Humans in which belongs to man. The only thing we can say with absolute certainty, that is, with sensory knowledge, is that life is an experience. However, religion, metaphysics, literature and fiction, with only the imagination, provide answers and solutions to the above problems and offer man expectations, hopes, life after death, paradise, hell, for god, devil, angels, soul, etc. each of them, in its own version. These, unfortunately, present the claim as knowledge, that is, as scientific knowledge unique to man. In this series of books, in general, the question flows what is philosophy, what is science and whether philosophy should be scientific, that is, to seek knowledge, truths, exclusively with the scientific method and the specialized scientific instruments, the scientific observation, experiment and calculation devices. In this series of books the question arises whether the only source of knowledge, truth, experience of life for man is the sensual, sensory, empirical scientific method.

Maurice Garcon. Proces Historiques: L'Affaire Grynszpan (1938). Les Piqueuses Dorsay (1942). l'Execution Du Docteur Guerin (1943). Rene Hardy (1947 Et
Maurice Garcon (1889-1967) fut l'un des plus grands avocats du XXe siecle. Parmi ses 17 500 dossiers plaides entre 1911 et 1967, conserves aux Archives Nationales, certains attirent particulierement l'attention. Herschel Grynszpan, le meurtrier de l'attache culturel de l'ambassade d'Allemagne a Paris qui, en 1938, voulut par son geste denoncer les persecutions dont les juifs allemands etaient les victimes. Les piqueuses d'Orsay , expression designant les infirmieres accusees, dans la panique de la debacle de juin 1940, d'avoir tue plusieurs malades intransportables avant de fuir leur hopital. Cinq etudiants, executeurs en mai 1943 a Poitiers du docteur Guerin qui, sous le pseudonyme de Pierre Chavigny, vantait dans la presse les merites de la collaboration. Enfin, le grand resistant Rene Hardy, l'organisateur de la bataille du rail , accuse d'avoir trahi et livre Jean Moulin aux Allemands. Ces quatre affaires presentent un interet historique majeur. Maurice Garcon y disseque, avec son acuite coutumiere, arcanes politiques et meandres de l'ame humaine. Il y revele aussi l'etendue de son immense talent, lui qui, disait Paul Morand, eut demontre que la malle etait vide s'il avait defendu l'assassin de quelque malheureuse coupee en morceaux , tant il y avait dans sa conception de la defense une part de prestidigitation.

"The Enchanted wrapped its beautiful and terrible fingers around me from the first page and refused to let go after the last. A wondrous book that finds transcendence in the most unlikely of places. . . . So dark yet so exquisite." -- Erin Morgenstern, author of The Night CircusAn astonishing and redemptive novel for readers of Alice Sebold and Toni Morrison, told from the point of view of a convict whose magical interpretations of prison life allow him to find absolute joy while isolated from the rest of humanity and a female investigator who experiences her own personal salvation in her work as a death penalty investigator. This is an enchanted place. Others don't see it but I do. The enchanted place is a high security prison and is relayed through the eyes of an inmate on death row who escapes his surroundings by immersing himself in books, and by re-imagining the world that surrounds him. Instead of focusing on the cloudy medical vines that snake across the floor, empty and waiting for the warden's finger to press the red buttons, our narrator sees golden horses as they run deep under the earth, heat flowing like molten metal from their backs. A woman and fallen priest haunt the prison halls--an unnamed female investigator only known as the Lady who is known for discovering information relating to soon-to-be executed inmates' backgrounds that can be used to overturn their sentences. She is put on the case of a man named York and as she digs into his past, the experience brings up ghosts of her own and threatens to destroy everything that she has come to know about the enchanted place. The Enchanted is a magical novel about redemption, the humanity that can lie within what is monstrous, and the human capacity to transcend and survive.

"It's 'Deliverance' encased in ice... Denfeld's novel is indeed loaded with suspense, its resonance comes from its surprising tilt towards storytelling restraint, a rarity in this typical crackling genre. Elegiac, informative and disquieting. . . . The novel gallops to a suitably heart-racing finish." -- New York Times Book ReviewA haunting, richly atmospheric, and deeply suspenseful novel from the acclaimed author of The Enchanted about an investigator who must use her unique insights to find a missing little girl.Three years ago, Madison Culver disappeared when her family was choosing a Christmas tree in Oregon's Skookum National Forest. She would be eight-years-old now--if she has survived. Desperate to find their beloved daughter, certain someone took her, the Culvers turn to Naomi, a private investigator with an uncanny talent for locating the lost and missing. Known to the police and a select group of parents as "the Child Finder," Naomi is their last hope.Naomi's methodical search takes her deep into the icy, mysterious forest in the Pacific Northwest, and into her own fragmented past. She understands children like Madison because once upon a time, she was a lost girl, too.As Naomi relentlessly pursues and slowly uncovers the truth behind Madison's disappearance, shards of a dark dream pierce the defenses that have protected her, reminding her of a terrible loss she feels but cannot remember. If she finds Madison, will Naomi ultimately unlock the secrets of her own life?Told in the alternating voices of Naomi and a deeply imaginative child, The Child Finder is a breathtaking, exquisitely rendered literary page-turner about redemption, the line between reality and memories and dreams, and the human capacity to survive.

"A heartbreaking, finger-gnawing, and yet ultimately hopeful novel by the amazing Rene Denfeld." --Margaret Atwood, via TwitterAfter captivating readers in The Child Finder, Naomi--the investigator with an uncanny ability for finding missing children--returns, trading snow-covered woods for dark, gritty streets on the search for her missing sister in a city where young, homeless girls have been going missing and turning up dead.From the highly praised author of The Child Finder and The Enchanted comes The Butterfly Girl, a riveting novel that ripples with truth, exploring the depths of love and sacrifice in the face of a past that cannot be left dead and buried. A year ago, Naomi, the investigator with an uncanny ability for finding missing children, made a promise that she would not take another case until she finds the younger sister who has been missing for years. Naomi has no picture, not even a name. All she has is a vague memory of a strawberry field at night, black dirt under her bare feet as she ran for her life.The search takes her to Portland, Oregon, where scores of homeless children wander the streets like ghosts, searching for money, food, and companionship. The sharp-eyed investigator soon discovers that young girls have been going missing for months, many later found in the dirty waters of the river. Though she does not want to get involved, Naomi is unable to resist the pull of children in need--and the fear she sees in the eyes of a twelve-year old girl named Celia. Running from an abusive stepfather and an addict mother, Celia has nothing but hope in the butterflies--her guides and guardians on the dangerous streets. She sees them all around her, tiny iridescent wisps of hope that soften the edges of this hard world and illuminate a cherished memory from her childhood--the Butterfly Museum, a place where everything is safe and nothing can hurt her.As danger creeps closer, Naomi and Celia find echoes of themselves in one another, forcing them each to consider the question: Can you still be lost even when you've been found? But will they find the answer too late?
