Living the Dream: The Story of Lloyd W. "Fig" Newton
Living the Dream tells the story of an African-American boy who had dreams of serving in the United States military, wearing the uniform, and demonstrating that he could be more than what his childhood circumstances and others predicted he would be. Not only did Newton break the bonds of segregation and disenfranchisement, but he also went on to accomplish much more than he could ever have imagined during his early life. Strong parents and education opened doors for him to dream and dream big. He made many of his dreams a reality along the way. He became a fighter pilot in the US Air Force and was the first African-American pilot to fly with the US Air Force Demonstration Team, "The Thunderbirds." Newton retired from the Air Force in 2000 as a four-star General.

Duns Scotus and the Problem of Universals
John Duns Scotus (d.1308), known as the ‘subtle doctor' among medieval schoolmen, produced a formidable philosophical theology using and adapting an Aristotelian metaphysical framework. Critical of Thomas Aquinas' grand Summas, Scotus died before producing a final synthesis of his own. Indeed, his work, left in disarray for centuries, has only recently become available in an edited format. Contemporary metaphysics, taking up the problem of universals, treads on ground already well-worked by Scotus. Duns Scotus and the Problem of Universals shows how Scotus' treatment of the problem of universals is both coherent and, even by contemporary standards, cogent. Todd Bates recovers and sets out Scotus' understanding of the structure of material substance, reconstructs Scotus' arguments for universals and haecceities, and shows how Scotus' theory applies to the metaphysics of the Incarnation. This book makes an important contribution to a neglected but crucial area of Scotus scholarship.
