Book Description
Insubordinate Spirit is a unique exploration into the life of Elizabeth Winthrop and other seventeenth-century English Puritans who emigrated to the rough, virtually untouched wilderness of present-day New England. Excerpts from newly discovered personal diaries and correspondence provide readers with not only fascinating insights into the hardships, dangers, and losses inherent to English and Dutch settlers in the 1600s, but also first-hand descriptions of the local Native Americans' family life, allegiances, and society. Caught between the unendurable expectations of her Puritan relatives and land disputes with the neighboring Dutch, Elizabeth Winthrop demonstrated a tremendous strength of resolve to protect her own family and remain true to her heart.

The Political Ideas of Thorstein Veblen
Author: Sidney Plotkin
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 030016338X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
Thorstein Veblen is best known for his authorship of "The Theory of the Leisure Class" and "The Theory of Business Enterprise," which made him a celebrated figure in the fields of economics and sociology at the turn of the twentieth century. In this book, Sidney Plotkin and Rick Tilman argue that in addition to his well-known work in these fields Veblen also made important--and until now overlooked--statements about politics.While Veblen's writings seldom mention politics, they are saturated with political ideas: about the relationship among war, executive power, and democracy; about the similarities between modern executive positions and monarchy; about the political influence of corporate power; about the symbolism of politics; and about many other issues. By demonstrating the deep relevance of Veblen's writings to today's political troubles, "The Political Ideas of Thorstein Veblen "offers an important reconsideration of a major American thinker.

Return to God
Author: Danson Enogiomwan Ubebe
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1780884826
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 441
Book Description
Return to God is a rare resource for uncommon Bible knowledge. It is one book which clearly identifies the Gospel of Grace as different from the tradition under the Mosaic Covenant, and yet strings them together without mixing them up. The book covers several areas of the Holy Bible that a great number of people shy away from. It is written to give glory to God, not to man. In explaining the hidden biblical truth, the book debunks several commonly held views about tithing, fasting, seed sowing, who of the spirit, soul and body is the real man, and more. It further clarifies what Jesus Christ meant by ‘believe’ and who can be described as really born again. The book shows that man without Jesus Christ, and this world, are themselves darkness and that re-incarnation is a reality and not an eastern religion gimmick. The coverage by the book is huge and deep. In the end, a brief account of the evolution of Christianity is added. The book also shows that there is a connection between Jesus Christ and the Tree of Life.Return to God, which unearths several hidden meanings of the Holy Bible teaching, will appeal to those who are interested in religion, and are seekers of God and the truth of the gospel of grace.
