Jonathan Swift
Jonathan Swift: Our Dean details the political climax of his remarkable career—his writing and publication of The Drapier’s Letters (1724), Gulliver’s Travels (1726), and A Modest Proposal (1729)—stressing the relentless political opposition he faced and the numerous ways, including through his sermons, that he worked from his political base as Dean of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, psychologically as well as physically just outside the Dublin city walls, to attempt to rouse the Irish people to awareness of the ways that England was abusing them. This book faces squarely the likelihood that Swift had a physical affair with Esther Vanhomrigh between 1719 and 1723, and reassesses in the li...
The Pharisee In Us All
In the Pharisee In Us All, author Ronald N. Hesser presents an in depth research of the character traits of Pharisees. They challenged Jesus’ ministry on many occasions, while at other times He sought them out for public debate and criticism. Descriptions of these incidents and dialogue compose over one third of the Gospels. Because Jesus had not yet been able to establish His New Covenant Church, He used the errors of the Pharisees to indirectly point out the character He wanted demonstrated in a New Covenant believer. Dr. Hesser examines seventeen areas in Scripture the Pharisees failed in, and he then suggests a positive trait in the Word for Christians to exemplify instead. This book is a must for all Christians, but will especially enlighten leaders in the Body of Christ.

In 2002, the Cincinnati Police Department (CPD) joined with other agencies and organizations to improve police-community relations in the city. This report focuses on the analysis of racial disparities in traffic stops in Cincinnati. The authors find no evidence of racial differences between the stops of black and those of similarly situated nonblack drivers, but some issues can exacerbate the perception of racial bias.

A Letter From a Clergyman to his Friend, with an Account of the Travels of Captain Lemuel Gulliver
Intricately woven into the fabric of eighteenth-century satire, 'A Letter From a Clergyman to his Friend, with an Account of the Travels of Captain Lemuel Gulliver' stands as a testament to the enduring power of social critique through fictional travelogues. This epistolary work, attributed to the anonymous author, delivers a meticulous account in the tradition of Jonathan Swift's acerbic wit to lambast the follies and vices of contemporary society. The literary style is reminiscent of Swift's multi-layered narratives, engaging readers in a nuanced examination of the human condition, morality, and the grotesque exaggerations of the self and state. Digicat Publishing's painstaking efforts bre...
