This is a second book in two-circuit economics. Teachers, scholars and economists eventually will need to make progress in two-circuit economics, beyond elementary insights invited by already available introductory sources.
There is a growing interest in the character and the challenge of the Anthropocene. Although efforts to pin down beginning dates of this epoch have been debated, there is a broad consensus that humanity is facing an unprecedented challenge to surviving on Earth, a challenge which humans have created ourselves. Undeniably, we have had and continue to have impacts on the planet as a whole. These include ravaging bushfires and unprecedented flooding caused by climate change, spiking levels of carbon dioxide levels, and widespread loss of biodiversity.
With many seemingly hopeless and discouraging challenges during these times, Journeyism reaches out with optimism and encouragement. This book reveals how academic institutions can create sustainable conditions for human dignity for everyone in the long-term. How can something so remote as sustainable conditions for human dignity be possible?
Basic Insights in Vector Calculus provides an introduction to three famous theorems of vector calculus, Green’s theorem, Stokes’ theorem and the divergence theorem (also known as Gauss’s theorem). Material is presented so that results emerge in a natural way. As in classical physics, we begin with descriptions of flows.

The Second Edition of Economics Actually briefly introduces two-circuit economics. Discovered by Lonergan in the 1930’s, it will become evident that the approach provides the scientific basis for a new standard model in economics.
The (Pre-)Dawning of Functional Specialization in Physics invites attention to data for each of the eight main tasks evident and self-evident in existing scholarship in modern physics. It makes preliminary efforts toward envisioning something of what functional collaboration will look like — in physics, the Academy and Society.

Introduction: Foreshadowings of a Normative Division of Labor
Bernard Lonergan identified the need and possibility of what he called “generalized empirical method” in science and philosophy. Implementation will be a future community achievement. This book enters into details of a selection of examples in the sciences and philosophy of science.

Pathways to Real Analysis provides an introduction to several key ideas of real analysis, including Archimedes quadrature of the parabola, Calculus, power series, Cauchy’s definitions of limit and integral, the inverse and implicit function theorems, the wave equation, Fourier’s heat equation and Fourier series.
