Daniel's Star
Daniel, the son of a shepherd present at the birth of Jesus, has many misconceptions about Jesus and His mission on earth.
Daniel's Star
We all know the story of the Christmas wise men, but do we know the story behind them? Could it be that Daniel, the chief magus of Babylon, set the stage for their journey to the nativity? Is he the reason behind one of the great enigmas of history? And who can forget the epic story of Daniel?the lion?s den, the handwriting on the wall, or his friends in the fiery furnace? In Daniel?s Star we have a universally appealing biblical story of Daniel and his three friends as they face the danger, mystery and intrigue of palace life in a strange land?and yet remained true to their God.
Knowing Better
Daniel Star presents a novel solution to the problem of reconciling normative ethics with ordinary virtue - for while ethical principles seem worth defending, it is not plausible to suggest that virtuous people in general follow them. He presents a new account of virtue, and rethinks the role that knowledge plays in deliberation and action.
Oxford Handbook of Reasons and Normativity
The Oxford Handbook of Reasons and Normativity maps a central terrain of philosophy, and provides an authoritative guide to it. Few concepts have received as much attention in recent philosophy as the concept of a reason to do or believe something. And one of the most contested ideas in philosophy is normativity, the 'ought' in claims that we ought to do or believe something. This is the first volume to provide broad coverage of the study of reasons and normativity across multiple philosophical subfields. In addition to focusing on reasons in ethics, epistemology, and the philosophy of mind, action, and language, the Handbook explores philosophical work on the nature of normativity in genera...
The Oxford Handbook of Reasons and Normativity
'The Oxford Handbook of Reasons and Normativity' contains 44 commissioned chapters on a wide range of topics, and will appeal to readers with an interest in ethics or epistemology. A diverse selection of substantive positions are defended by leading proponents of the views in question, and provide broad coverage of the study of reasons and normativity across multiple philosophical subfields. In addition to focusing on reasons as part of the study of ethics and as part of the study of epistemology (as well as focusing on reasons as part of the study of the philosophy of language and as part of the study of the philosophy of mind), the Handbook covers recent developments concerning the nature of normativity in general. A number of the contributions to the Handbook explicitly address such "metanormative" issues, bridging subfields as they do so. --
Instant Universe
Exploring strange worlds and alien civilizations is one of the most exciting aspects of science fiction. =GALACTIC BAROQUE= INSTANT UNIVERSE generates exotic locales at any point from the big bang to the end of the Stelliferous Era that better reflect where super- and ultra-advanced technology will take us. Does humankind still live in trees or caves? Of course not! We learned to build our own habitations long ago. Likewise, INSTANT UNIVERSE determines technology levels of civilizations, indicating native life populations, star system development (including terraformed planets, megaengineered space colonies, and beyond), and interstellar colonization. Writers of any genre, gamers, roleplayers, world builders, astronomy enthusiasts, and more will find this heavily researched book useful, fascinating, and fun. It's a great way to introduce children and novices to the wonders of the universe, too!
History of Ethics
Is there an objective moral standard that applies to all our actions? To what extent should I sacrifice my own interests for the sake of others? How might philosophers of the past help us think about contemporary ethical problems? As the most recent addition to the Blackwell Readings in Philosophy series, History of Ethics: Essential Readings with Commentary brings together rich and varied excerpts of canonical work and contemporary scholarship to span the history of Western moral philosophy in one volume.
