Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

In "Humanitarian Philosophy," Emil Edward Kusel embarks on an intellectual exploration of the ethical frameworks that underpin our collective responsibility toward humanity. The text is a rich tapestry of philosophical discourse, integrating varied traditions from utilitarianism to existentialism. Kusel's literary style is characterized by a clear and accessible prose, allowing complex ideas to resonate with both scholars and general readers alike. Set against the backdrop of contemporary social dilemmas, the book challenges readers to reflect on the implications of humanitarian values in shaping a just society. Emil Edward Kusel, a philosopher deeply engaged in the intersections of ethics and human rights, draws on his extensive experience in humanitarian work. His endeavors in various NGOs and his academic research expose him to real-world challenges, inspiring him to pen this profound examination of humanitarian ethics. Kusel'Äôs background in both philosophy and social activism positions him uniquely to address the pressing moral questions of our time, reinforcing his credibility as an insightful commentator on humanitarian issues. I highly recommend "Humanitarian Philosophy" to readers interested in ethical inquiries and social justice. Kusel's compelling arguments and relatable examples encourage critical thought, urging us to reconsider our roles as global citizens. This book is not just an academic treatise but a call to action, making it essential for anyone concerned with the future of humanity.

Into the Silk - The Dramatic...

Ian Mackersey

From World War Two to the Jet Age, Ian Mackersey charts the thrilling and personal accounts of airmen who have jumped from their planes and survived. 
 
 
 
Since the test pilot Harold Harris became the first man to save his life with a parachute in 1922 there have been over 120,000 air force pilots and crew who owe their lives to their parachutes. 
 
 
 
Into the Silk is full of astounding tales of people who against the odds bailed out of their planes and were therefore able to enter the annals of the Caterpillar Club, a society open only to men and women who survive aviation disaster with the aid of a parachute. 
 
 
 
Mackersey records dramatic moments during the Second World War when pilots leapt from their burning planes while still being shot at by enemy fighters. He uncovers the descent of the extraordinarily lucky man who jumped from his damaged bomber but had to put his parachute on while falling through the sky and the pilot who found himself attached to a moving train and was dragged along for miles. 
 
 
 
The book highlights the debts that all of these survivors owe to people such as Leslie Irvin, who invented the modern parachute and Sir James Martin, the great designer of ejection seats.

Shameless - The Fight for...

Marilyn Churley

In the late 1960s, at the age of eighteen and living far from home amidst the thriving counterculture of Ottawa, Marilyn Churley got pregnant. Like thousands of other women of the time she kept the event a secret. Faced with few options, she gave the baby up for adoption.
		 
Over twenty years later, as the Ontario NDP government’s minister responsible for all birth, death, and adoption records, including those of her own child, Churley found herself in a surprising and powerful position – fully engaged in the long and difficult battle to reform adoption disclosure laws and find her son.
		 
Both a personal and political story, Shameless is a powerful memoir about a mother’s struggle with loss, love, secrets, and lies – and an adoption system shrouded in shame.

Who Are You Really? - A...

Joshua Rasmussen

What does it mean to be human? What is a person? Where did we come from?
Many answers have been offered throughout history in response to these perennial questions, including those from biological, anthropological, sociological, political, and theological approaches. And yet the questions remain.
Philosopher Joshua Rasmussen offers his own step-by-step examination into the fundamental nature and ultimate origin of persons. Using accessible language and clear logic, he argues that the answer to the question of what it means to be a person sheds light not only on our own nature but also on the existence of the one who gave us life.

Battle of the Boyne The: The...

Editors Charles River

The striking saga of the Glorious Revolution is one that continues to fascinate historians around the world today. Some chroniclers have referred to these events as the “Bloodless Revolution,” but other historians say otherwise. The ruthless game of politics that William of Orange and England’s King James II played may have been somewhat bloodless in comparison to history's greatest rebellions, but the rebels, soldiers, and other pawns who lost their lives along the way must not be forgotten. The revolution would also pave the path for a series of bloody wars between England and Scotland, the result of which has left quite a legacy of its own.  
Furthermore, it’s important to remember that James did try to return to England, and there would be two more years of war before James II gave up the quest to regain the throne. On July 1, 1690, the famous Battle of the Boyne was fought near the town of Drogheda, about five miles west of Baltray. The combatants were the supporters of King James II and King William III, both claiming to be the lawful sovereigns of England, Scotland, and Ireland. The conflict was part of a broader struggle for the destiny of the British Isles, and though it was not the decisive battle of the war, it is the most famous, the commemoration of which still fans tensions between Protestants and Catholics in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. In its aftermath, James II would again leave the British Isles, this time for good.

The English Civil Wars - 1640-1660

Blair Worden

A brilliant appraisal of the Civil War and its long-term consequences, by an acclaimed historian. 
 
 
 
The political upheaval of the mid-seventeenth century has no parallel in English history. Other events have changed the occupancy and the powers of the throne, but the conflict of 1640-60 was more dramatic: the monarchy and the House of Lords were abolished, to be replaced by a republic and military rule. 
 
 
 
In this wonderfully listenable account, Blair Worden explores the events of this period and their origins—the war between King and Parliament, the execution of Charles I, Cromwell's rule and the Restoration—while aiming to reveal something more elusive: the motivations of contemporaries on both sides and the concerns of later generations.
