Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from World History The scope, character, and purpose of this textbook perhaps require some clarification here. It covers the entire historic field, together with a chapter on prehistoric times; it presents a survey of human progress, rather than a chronological outline of events; it is intended for that large body of students who, for various reasons, do not take more than one year of history in the high school. They ought to gain from such a course, however brief, some conception of social development and some realization Of man's upward march from the Stone Age until the present time. Nothing but general or universal history will give them that conception, that realization. And only a history of the world will enable them to appreciate the contributions made by peoples widely separated in space and time to what is steadily becoming the common civilization of mankind. About two thirds of the book are devoted to the last three centuries. This period furnishes the immediate historical background Of the life of to-day: it is therefore the period ordinarily most interesting and profitable to the student. The chapters dealing with it are reproduced, with some abbrevia tion, from my Modern European History. The other chapters are based on my Early European History, but they contain much that is new, both in the text and also by way of maps and illustrations.

Download or read book History and Power of Mind written by Richard Ingalese and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great student of the Science of Mind, Richard Ingalese frequently lectured on New Thought and topics of mental therapeutics. The History and Power of Mind is a collection of many of his lectures and articles, first published in 1902, with Ingalese's own annotations and expansions. Difficult subjects to wrangle, from self-control to hypnotism to self-healing, were not a problem for the articulate and charismatic Ingalese, who brings insight and intelligence to esoteric ideas and puts them in a practical and applicable context that demystifies mental and psychic phenomena for the intellectual reader curious about the mind, how it works, and what it can do. American lawyer RICHARD INGALESE (b. 1854) was a self-taught alchemist and proponent of New Thought. He claimed to have confected the true Philosopher's Stone, which confers immortality and turns common metals into gold, and disappeared, along with his wife, a psychic and healer, sometime in the early 20th century. Before their disappearance, Ingalese authored several articles and books, including Fragments of Truth (1921), Astrology and Health (1927), and Cosmogony and Evolution (1907).

Not to do so is either to miss everything in it worth reading or else to get no more than the entertainment that the gossip of a newspaper may give. Events that are dealt with like unstrung beads, - broken, that is, from the relations that thread them, and thrown in mere handfuls together, - may have some fragmentary, anecdotal interest in themselves, but they are not History.

Download or read book Last Periods of Universal History Classic Reprint written by Emma Willard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Last Periods of Universal History The Last Periods will also be sent as a specimen of the entire work; yet they will give but an imperfect idea of the Universal History as a whole. As such, we claim for it, the first. Clear and logical arrangement of the subject - adopted by the author without precedent, but with conclusive reasons. Instead of dividing the long line of time into ancient and modern, with the uncertain period of the middle ages coming in definitely between, and instead of taking for the beginning of modern his tory, either the vague period of the revival of learning, or the close of an empire long in hopeless decay, our plan boldly cuts the line of time into three definite parts - ancient, middle, and modern - by the two most important epochs of history, viz.: the birth of Christ and the discovery of America. Each part was then easily subdivided into its appropriate periods by epochs. 1't firly' geographical extension of the world is, at the places of these (113mm: shown to the eye by a series of maps; and the memory is farther aided by pictorial illustrations. The dates are made in heavy type on the margins. The dynasties of the reigning sovereigns are also set on the margin, but distinguished by running lengthwise of the page; the battle-fields, with the known numbers of contending forces and their losseshare also placed there, but with a peculiar type, and the treaties with still another; and these peculiar characters are kept in the chrono logical table. Thus each page becomes a species of picture, leaving its daguerrean impression on the mind of the student. The grand problem, what is the true method of representing historic time by space, was solved by the completion of the Temple of Time, of which the first conception was formed in the arrangement of this work, and the first published sketch is the frontispiece, and its enlarged floor work, called a Picture of Nations, precedes the chronological table.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General History of the World, Vol. 3 Popular Reaction against the Spirit of Conquest repro sented by Napoleon - The revolution of 1688 in England remained wholly English, so it did not leave its own island. The French Revolution was cosmopolitan. The members of the French National Assembly, not merely solicitous of the ancient liberties of the country, had the larger idea of rights common to all men united in society. Thus they placed the Declaration of Rights as a preamble to the Constitution of 1791. They thought of humanity no less than of France. This largeness of view constituted the grandeur and also the misery of the French Revolution. As a result the new order of things emerged from the past only with frightful throes.

Download or read book Oak Ridge written by Ed Westcott and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2005-10-19 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A town with a significant place in American history as the Birthplace of the Atomic Bomb, this pictorial history takes a visual journey pre-war and post. Nestled in the foothills of East Tennessee, 25 miles west of Knoxville, is a small town bordered on three sides by the Clinch River. The land first existed under other names - Elza, Robertsville, Scarboro, and Wheat - but in 1942, 59,000 acres of this unassuming rural land were transformed in a matter of weeks into a "secret city" that became known as the mysterious Manhattan District. As a direct result of the letter written by Albert Einstein to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939, the Manhattan District was created to develop new atomic weapons. Finally named Oak Ridge in 1943 and now thriving with a population of over 27,000, the town continues to be a significant center for the advancement of science and technology used throughout the world. In this pictorial history, photographs and personal descriptions guide readers on a visual journey of the construction of a city and the creation of the atomic bomb, to the post-war transformation of Oak Ridge into a major scientific community in the South.
