Book excerpt: Harriet McCorvey, a high school junior, was raped by her pastor. She later realizes that she’s pregnant. The local abortion business, a branch location of Preferred Personhood Foundation, examines her and discovers that she is pregnant with twins and they have a condition known as Trisomy 21, Down Syndrome. The babies are identical twins. Their tissues are priceless in the eyes of some research companies who are trying to produce better tests for Down Syndrome and, possibly, a vaccine. Aunt Thommie’s Cabin is the story of a pregnant young girl’s efforts to escape from Preferred Personhood and those who have sold her babies to a research company. Harriet, still pregnant, courageously makes her way through a blinding snowstorm, seeking refuge, trying to save her babies, and keep them alive. In 1852, Harriet Beecher Stowe published Uncle Tom’s Cabin, a book which stunned Americans with its presentation of the truth about the evils of slavery.

Download or read book Descartes and Augustine written by Stephen Menn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-28 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a systematic study of Descartes' relation to Augustine. It offers a complete reevaluation of Descartes' thought and as such will be of major importance to all historians of medieval, neo-Platonic, or early modern philosophy. Stephen Menn demonstrates that Descartes uses Augustine's central ideas as a point of departure for a critique of medieval Aristotelian physics, which he replaces with a new, mechanistic anti-Aristotelian physics. Special features of the book include a reading of the Meditations, a comprehensive historical and philosophical introduction to Augustine's thought, a detailed account of Plotinus, and a contextualization of Descartes' mature philosophical project which explores both the framework within which it evolved and the early writings, to show how the collapse of the early project drove Descartes to the writings of Augustine.

Now that split loyalty will cost him at a time when he can least afford it. Outmaneuvered, framed for murder, and targeted by the Dominion Sect, Patrick has to face a past full of lies to regain his freedom.

Everything he's fought to build with his pack is at stake, and losing them isn't a price Patrick is willing to pay, but some choices aren't his to make. Jono knows they can't cede any more territory if they want to win the god pack civil war spilling into the streets of New York City. But the souls of werecreatures are free for the taking when demons come to town and angels sing a warning no one can ignore. When Jono's worst fear comes to life, and he loses the one person he can't live without, the only option left is to fight. Facing down the demons of their past and the ones in their present, Patrick and Jono will learn the hard way that some sins never wash away clean.
