Book Description
Catch Tara Lain's Bestselling Balls to the Wall Series Volley Balls David Underwood needs to go to AA--Alpha-lovers Anonymous. His last attraction to an alpha male got him into an abusive relationship, and now ogling two hot members of the Australian volleyball team on Laguna Beach gets him harassed yet again. But he can't resist the allure of the delicious Gareth Marshall...even if the man isn't gay. But Gareth's teammate Edge has secrets of his own, and David's ex-lover will never be happy without David under his thumb. With everything stacked against him, can a gay Laguna man find happiness with an alpha male--or two? Fire Balls Artist Rodney Mansfield is small and flamboyant...and a black belt in karate. Too bad the work of art he really wants is firefighter Hunter Fallon. The gorgeous "straight gay" guy could never want the Runtback of Notre Dame, so when Rodney's handsome surfer friend develops an unexpected passion for the beautiful firefighter, Rodney does what's best for everyone and helps Jerry land his man. And if that isn't enough to kill his chances, embarrassing Hunter by rescuing him from a firehouse bully seals the deal. Doesn't it? Then why can't Hunter get his mind off the powerful pipsqueak's face? Beach Balls Adam James is so far in the closet he could find Narnia, but coming out would threaten all he's built as the attorney for the homophobic WMA Development. Then, on an early morning dive, he meets a tall, lean rebreather diver named Sky who makes him want to live a different life...if Sky can get past the fact that Adam's everthing he stands against.

Reasons Why
Author: Bradford Skow
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191088870
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Reasons Why first argues that what philosophers are really after, or at least should be after, when they seek a theory of explanation, is a theory of answers to why-questions. It then advances a thesis about what form a theory of answers to why-questions should take: a theory of answers to why-questions should say what it takes for one fact to be a reason why another fact obtains. The book's main thesis, then, is a theory of reasons why. Every reason why some event happened is either a cause, or a ground, of that event. Challenging this thesis are many examples philosophers have thought they have found of "non-causal explanations." Reasons Why uses two ideas to show that these examples are not counterexamples to the theory it defends. First is the idea that not every part of a good response to a why-question is part of an answer to that why-question. Second is the idea that not every reason why something is a reason why an event happened is itself a reason why that event happened. In the book's final chapter its theory of reasons why is extended to cover teleological answers to why-questions, and answers to why-questions that give an agent's reason for acting.
