Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The action in "The Magician from Vienna" takes place in Vienna in 1777, as the city is going through similar rumors, anxieties and upheavals as Paris where soon the Revolution will change everything. In the nerve centers of power, one reacts rather skittishly to all scandals and sensations of any kind. The Magic Healer Dr. Franz Anton Mesmer is traveling with his black coach through country and cities, heals people for free, and proclaims the coming of a new universal harmony. Vienna's physicians don't like the sound of such talk and action. They are interested in neutralizing Mesmer and his theory of "animal magnetism." During a sting operation, the Secret Police apprehends the young aristocrat Jean-Theo von Vogelauer who makes money by trading girls. The Police forces him to find Mesmer and to eliminate him. But the real catastrophe happens when Mesmer tries to heal a blind woman with his magic powers...

Book excerpt: A female scientist races to save the world using prophecies from before Christ’s time in this thriller by the New York Times–bestselling author of The Eight. In the last week of Jesus’s life, the Emperor Augustus orders the purge of all prophecies that question his divine power. Thus, in the crater of a dormant volcano, the books of the Sibylline oracle are sealed—lost to the world until the nineteenth century when Clio, a brilliant archaeologist, discovers them. The Sibyl’s words remain as potent as ever, having the ability to change the destiny of mankind. But who will be bold enough to harness their power? More than a century after their discovery, some of the secret prophecies fall into the hands of nuclear scientist Ariel Behn when her beloved cousin is assassinated. If Ariel can discover the mystery behind the prophecies, she will be able to prevent a potentially worldwide catastrophe—but in order to do so she must travel to Russia, Vienna, and Paris where too many people are desperate to protect the secrets of these ancient writings. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Katherine Neville including rare images from her life and travels.

Download or read book Trifles Make Perfection written by Joseph Wechsberg and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 1999 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wechsberg was a connoisseur in the old Continental sense of the word, a man who valued perfection for its own sake, seeing its quest as worthy and its attainment as eminently possible. Born in 1907 into a wealthy, assimilated Jewish family, he saw his comfortable life threatened by World War I and then extinguished by Hitler's annexation of his native Czechoslovakia. He came to America with only a basic command of English but an impressive understanding of what was happening in Europe. His most powerful essays, describing the tragic political fragmentation of Europe at the end of World War II, are never strident or bitter; his appreciations of Europe's finer offering are a sheer delight."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book The Vienna Circle and Religion written by Esther Ramharter and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first systematic and historical account of the Vienna Circle that deals with the relation of logical empiricists with religion as well as theology. Given the standard image of the Vienna Circle as a strong anti-metaphysical group and non-religious philosophical and intellectual movement, this book draws a surprising conclusion, namely, that several members of the famous Moritz Schlick-Circle - e.g., the left wing with Rudolf Carnap, Otto Neurath, Philipp Frank, Edgar Zilsel, but also Schlick himself - dealt with the dualisms of faith/ belief and knowledge, religion and science despite, or because of their non-cognitivist commitment to the values of Enlightenment. One remarkable exception was the philosopher and Rabbi Joseph Schächter, who wrote explicitly on religion and philosophy after the linguistic turn. The book also covers another puzzling figure: the famous logician Kurt Gödel, who wrote on theology and the ontological proof of God in his so far unpublished notebooks. The book opens up new perspectives on the Vienna Circle with its internal philosophical and political pluralism and is of value to philosophers, historians and anybody who is interested in the relation between science and religion.
