The Theory of Moral Sentiments

Adam Smith

Maison d'édition: Passerino

Synopsis

The Theory of Moral Sentiments is a 1759 book by Adam Smith. It provided the ethical, philosophical, economic, and methodological underpinnings to Smith's later works, including The Wealth of Nations (1776), Essays on Philosophical Subjects (1795), and Lectures on Justice, Police, Revenue, and Arms (1763) (first published in 1896).

Adam Smith (June 1723 – 17 July 1790) was a Scottish economist and philosopher who was a pioneer in the thinking of political economy and key figure during the Scottish Enlightenment. Seen by some as "The Father of Economics" or "The Father of Capitalism", he wrote two classic works, The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776).
The latter, often abbreviated as The Wealth of Nations, is considered his magnum opus and the first modern work that treats economics as a comprehensive system and as an academic discipline.

1940: When Change is Desperately...

Eric Ludy

Oftentimes the greatest movements of grace follow close on the heels of the greatest movements of evil. Such is the case of 1939 Great Britain—decadent, self-absorbed and wholly unprepared to stand up against the growing threat of Adolf Hitler on the other side of the Channel. A great evil had cast its shadow upon the sleepy British Isles, and now it appeared that the countdown toward their final days had officially begun. 1939 Great Britain is a stunning reminder to all of us, that no matter how dark it gets, God’s grace is sufficient to meet the task and to turn everything around. Something happened inside that decaying, dying nation that is one for the storybooks. And, though it is nearly impossible to believe—that decadent, self-absorbed, unprepared little nation became— seemingly overnight—a nation full of lionhearted men and women ready to sacrifice everything to see Hitler stopped. Out of the ashes of 1939 grows the beauty and profundity of 1940 Great Britain. And what is most thrilling is that God desires to work this very same miracle in each of us.  
This is an Ellerslie Live Teaching Series from Eric Ludy. When you purchase this audiobook, it comes with an accompanying PDF of the message notes.

Summary of Bret Baier and...

Falcon Press

Buy now to get the main key ideas from Bret Baier and Catherine Whitney’s Three Days in Moscow 
  
In Three Days in Moscow (2018), Bret Baier of Fox News and his co-writer Catherine Whitney tell a story of patriotism, courage, and ambition, about a man who went to the full extent for the sake of his nation, without ever compromising democracy. 
This political biography focuses on President Ronald Reagan’s agenda during his final years in office, before the fall of the Soviet Union. It chronicles major stages that marked his two-term presidency, especially his visit to the USSR for the Moscow summit with Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. Both leaders showed how long-term enemies could break through historical grievances for the common interest of their nations, as a new, post-Soviet era finally started to unfold. Reagan felt he only had three days to make his appeal and convince the Russian people of the importance of democracy; he had been awaiting this moment for the majority of his life.
