An ethical philosophy of life presented in its main outlines - A Thoughtful Exploration of Ethical Living and Values

Felix Adler

Sinopse

In "An Ethical Philosophy of Life Presented in Its Main Outlines," Felix Adler articulates a profound vision of ethical living, advocating for a rational and universal moral framework that transcends religious dogma. The book is characterized by its clear, didactic prose and engaging arguments, situated in the late 19th-century philosophical discourse that sought to reconcile ethics with emerging scientific understandings of human nature and society. Adler'Äôs work draws on the traditions of humanism and ethical culture, addressing the interplay between individual responsibility and social welfare while highlighting the importance of personal integrity and altruism in shaping a just society. Felix Adler, a prominent philosopher and social reformer, was deeply influenced by his diverse background, including his Jewish heritage and secular upbringing. As the founder of the Society for Ethical Culture, Adler sought to create a community grounded in ethical living without the constraints of religious orthodoxy. His commitment to education and social reform reflected a lifelong passion for uplifting humanity, making his philosophical inquiries resonate with practical implications for ethical practice in a modernizing world. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in ethical philosophy, social reform, and the foundations of humanistic thought. Adler's insights remain relevant today, inviting readers to critically examine their moral convictions and encouraging a reflective approach to ethical dilemmas in an increasingly complex world.

The Echo from Dealey Plaza - The...

Abraham Bolden

A gripping and unforgettable true story of bravery and patriotism in the face of bitter hatred. 
 
 
 
Abraham Bolden was a young African American Secret Service agent in Chicago when he was asked by John F. Kennedy himself to join the White House Secret Service detail. For Bolden, it was a dream come true—and an encouraging sign of the charismatic president's vision for a new America. 
 
 
 
But the dream quickly turned sour. Bolden found himself regularly subjected to open hostility and blatant racism, and he was appalled by the White House team's irresponsible approach to security. In the wake of JFK's assassination, Bolden sought to expose the agency's negligence, only to find himself the victim of a sinister conspiracy. The Echo from Dealey Plaza is the story of the terrible price paid by one man for his commitment to truth and justice.

This is a snapshot of your personal and unique way of processing information. I’ve written it over a period of many years–tweaking it as I researched and learned more about our layers of learning. 
I’ve taught violin, raised children, and given workshops (some for music students and some for authors of children’s books where we discussed the child’s development at various ages so that when they wrote a book, they knew the thinking of their characters). 
Kids think differently in just a matter of a few months. What scared them at six years old at seven is just a matter of fact. What made them laugh at four is no longer funny at five. 
Some topics include:

Ivan's War - Life and Death in...

Catherine Merridale

“May be the best historical portrait of life in the Red Army yet published . . . [researched] withextraordinary patience and a wonderful ear for nuance.” —Anne Applebaum, The New York Review of Books Of the thirty million who fought in the eastern front of World War II, eight million died, driven forward in suicidal charges, shattered by German shells and tanks. They were the men and women of the Red Army, a ragtag mass of soldiers who confronted Europe’s most lethal fighting force and by 1945 had defeated it.Sixty years have passed since their epic triumph, but the heart and mind of Ivan—as the ordinary Russian soldier was called—remain a mystery. We know something about how the soldiers died, but nearly nothing about how they lived, how they saw the world, or why they fought.Sourced from previously inaccessible military archives, personal diaries, and intimate veterans’ narratives, author Catherine Merridale unveils the untold journey of these soldiers from their first encounter with the German offensive to their hard-earned victory in Stalingrad—a place where survival was measured in mere hours.Accompany these brave hearts into the morose streets of Berlin, as they face their anger, fear, and finally, a bitter homecoming, denied of the new life for which they sacrificed everything. Discover this unique fusion of patriotism, courage, and human spirit that drove these undernourished, poorly led troops to overthrow the Nazi menace.Ivan’s War emphatically places these invisible millions at the core of their deserved historical context, accounting for their major role in shaping a new era.“A marvelous book . . . confirms that Merridale is a superb historian.” —Tony Judt, author of Postwar
