  On Bullshit - Anniversary Edition

  One of the most prominent features of our world is that there is so much bullshit. Yet we have no clear understanding of what bullshit is, how it’s different from lying, what purposes it serves, and what it means. In his acclaimed bestseller On Bullshit, which was featured on The Daily Show and 60 Minutes, Harry Frankfurt, who was one of the world’s most influential moral philosophers, explores one of the most serious problems of our politics and our world. This twentieth anniversary edition features a postscript in which Frankfurt emphasizes that “indifference to the truth is extremely dangerous.” 
    
  With his characteristic combination of philosophical acuity, psychological insight, and wry humor, Frankfurt argues that bullshitters misrepresent themselves to their audience not as liars do—that is, by deliberately making false claims about what’s true. Rather, bullshitters seek to convey a certain impression of themselves without being concerned about whether anything at all is true. They quietly change the rules governing the conversation so that claims about truth and falsity are irrelevant. Although bullshit can take innocent forms, excessive indulgence in it can eventually undermine the bullshitter’s capacity to tell the truth in a way that lying doesn’t. Liars at least acknowledge that the truth matters. Because of this, Frankfurt says, “bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.” 
    
  Remarkably prescient and insightful, On Bullshit is a small book that explains a great deal about our time. 
    
  "Harry G. Frankfurt [was] the world’s foremost authority on bullshit … In our current political climate, [his] words sound prescient to the point of redundancy."—Ron Charles, Washington Post

  The vast history of Britain is now at your fingertips! 
  Britain has a long history, from the days of Roman settlements, such as Londinium (modern-day London), to the days of Britain ruling the waves to the subsequent decline of the empire and the rise of the Commonwealth. It is hard to cover the entire history of Britain in just one book. However, this text seeks to break its history down into easily digestible sections. 
  This book starts us off at the point at which Britain entered into the historical record. Follow along as we unveil the invasion of Julius Caesar and the conquests of later Romans. These were the first people to write down their thoughts and feelings about Britain’s inhabitants. 
  The Roman Empire itself would eventually crash, but Hadrian’s Wall, as well as a multitude of Roman settlements, would remain. These were inherited by the Anglo-Saxons, who arrived from the German-speaking lands just across the English Chanel. The Anglo-Saxons created a rich history and culture but would be supplanted by the Normans in 1066. 
  The Tudor dynasty emerged in 1485, fundamentally changing life in Britain. The most notorious Tudor of all, King Henry VIII, broke free from Roman Catholicism and instituted the Church of England with himself at its head. 
  Here is just a peek at what you will learn:The rise of Anglo-Saxon rule and the establishment of EnglandWilliam the Conqueror and how he changed the course of British historyHenry VIII and the Protestant ReformationThe many conflicts between England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern IrelandThe legacy of Wales and Welsh cultureScotland’s role in British affairsBritain’s involvement in World War One and World War TwoFamous myths and legends of the British Isles
