  Science and Health: Knowledge and Medicine in Ancient Rome (3 in 1) explores the intellectual and spiritual forces that shaped Roman civilization, from its groundbreaking scientific ideas to its religious beliefs and the formidable enemies it battled across centuries. 
  In Roman Medicine and Science, uncover the practical and philosophical roots of Roman knowledge—how doctors, engineers, and scholars applied Greek theory, astrology, and firsthand experience to treat the sick, build aqueducts, and study the stars. Roman Religion and Mythology dives into the gods, rituals, and sacred practices that infused daily life with divine meaning and political power. From Jupiter to household spirits, religion in Rome was deeply entwined with science, healing, and war. The Roman Empire and Their Enemies offers a dynamic look at Rome’s greatest rivals—Persians, Carthaginians, Germanic tribes, and more—examining how these conflicts influenced Rome’s scientific developments, medical needs, and mythic self-image. 
  Together, these three books reveal how Romans understood the world—through logic and legend, reason and ritual. Ideal for readers fascinated by ancient science, belief systems, and military history, this volume reveals how Rome's view of knowledge shaped its rise—and echoed through its fall.

  Here is Dr. Wernher von Braun’s incredible story – from his early years in Germany, where he gave birth to modern rocketry, to his arrival in the United States and his launching of the first American satellite, the first man on the moon and other stunning space exploration feats. “Every page of Wernher von Braun’s life is a monument to the drama of adventure. Few people have been fighting so hard and, indeed, very few have been subject to so much criticism, so much jealousy, so much defeat—yet, very few have lived to be honored and to harvest the fruits of so many wonderful victories as has this man.” Author Erik Bergaust has had the advantage of knowing von Braun as a friend, hunting and fishing companion, space business associate—and biographer—for more than twenty-five years. Thus, he has been able to present a dramatic portrait of an important personality and a 20th century hero.

  The Religious Instruction of the...

  This work is an extended exhortation urging white ministers and slaveowners to attend to the spiritual needs of slaves and free blacks. The book is broken into four parts. The first part is an historical sketch of slavery in the Colonies and the United States, with a focus on missionary and religious efforts directed towards the African slaves. This account goes from 1620 to 1842. Jones closes this first part with a summary of each denomination and each state. The second part treats the "Moral and Religious Condition" of slaves and free blacks, blaming their circumstances for their lack of virtue. Jones especially calls attention to their poverty and lack of education. He describes their ignorance of Christianity, their general lack of character, and their prevailing vices, noting that in the end, they are totally dependent on white men for the ability to overcome these limitations. In light of this description, Jones goes on in the third part to describe the obligations of the Christian church to rectify these problems. He asserts that the religious education of the African part of the population is a duty no Christian can ignore. In addition, he lists several benefits of religious instruction. The final part of the book proposes some strategies for implementing programs of religious instruction for slaves, making recommendations for Sabbath services as well as weekday plantation meetings. Jones says that the Christian gospel must be presented in a way that is intelligible to uneducated slaves, and must be inculcated early in childhood when possible. The guiding principle he describes for dealing with the condition of the slave is to be only concerned with the spiritual, not the secular, political, or civil. Jones concludes with pointed exhortations to masters, ministers, and the church at large, calling them all to devote more attention to the religious instruction of the African part of the American population.

  The Reign of Terror -...

  The Reign of Terror did not emerge suddenly; rather, it was the result of years of social unrest, economic hardship, and political turmoil that set France on a course toward radicalization. The fall of the Ancien Régime, combined with growing revolutionary fervor, laid the foundation for the bloodshed that would follow. By understanding the conditions that gave rise to the Reign of Terror, we can better grasp the motivations of those who sought to reshape France through violence and fear. 
  The collapse of the Ancien Régime was driven by deep-seated inequalities between the ruling elite and the common people. For centuries, French society had been structured into three estates: the clergy, the nobility, and the commoners. While the first two estates enjoyed privileges and wealth, the Third Estate—comprising peasants, laborers, and the emerging bourgeoisie—bore the burden of heavy taxation and economic hardship. As Enlightenment ideas of liberty and equality spread, resentment toward the monarchy and aristocracy grew, igniting a revolutionary spirit among the oppressed classes. 
  Economic turmoil exacerbated tensions as France faced a severe financial crisis. Decades of war, extravagant spending by the monarchy, and a failing tax system left the country on the brink of collapse. The situation worsened in the late 1780s when poor harvests led to widespread food shortages. Soaring bread prices, the staple of the common people’s diet, fueled anger and desperation. As hunger and poverty gripped the nation, the belief that radical change was necessary gained momentum. In 1789, King Louis XVI, unable to resolve the crisis, convened the Estates-General, an assembly of representatives from all three estates. However, when the Third Estate was denied equal representation, they broke away and formed the National Assembly, marking the first significant challenge to monarchical authority.
