Book Reasons  Principally of a Public Nature  Against a New Bridge from Charlestown to Boston  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reasons, Principally of a Public Nature, Against a New Bridge From Charlestown to Boston [n the case of Charles River Bridge, - when the adjustment of the terms of its charter were under consideration, its location at and substitution for the ancient ferr the fact that the road over the Neck, at the Soutfi End, Winnissimet Ferry and Charles town Ferry, were the only frequented passes into Boston - that Charlestown Ferry was the only one on Charles river above Chelsea, - the position of the bridge, in relation to the eastern, northern, and west ern sections of the country; all these circumstances were resent to the minds of the General Court, and or the pro rietors of the bridge, when the char ter was frame For a period of a hundred and sixty years no additional avenues to the capital had been opened; the subject of a bridge from Boston to Charlestown, had been at times discussed more than sixty fyears, but the project as often deemed visionary, rom the depth of the water and the ra pidity of the current. It seems therefore but rea sonable to suppose, that it was fully the expecta tion of the arties that the road, by the Neck, Win nissimmet erry, and Charles river bridge, would continue for an unlimited period to be the only ave nues to Boston, from the interior. In the then state of public information, taken in connexion with the actual condition and prospects of the country, it could hardly, at least, have been conceived by any one, that a competition was likely to arise with Charles river bridge, within a term of fifty or more 'ears. By all the considerations here mentioned, the legislature was most undoubtedl influenced, both in fixing the rate of the tolls and t e duration of the charter; and whether the toll on a carriage should be 8 pence or 12 pence, or the duration of the charter 40 or 100years, were questions which had a direct reference to these points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Book The Great Transformation

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'One of the most powerful books in the social sciences ever written. ... A must-read' Thomas Piketty 'The twentieth century's most prophetic critic of capitalism' Prospect Karl Polanyi's landmark 1944 work is one of the earliest and most powerful critiques of unregulated markets. Tracing the history of capitalism from the great transformation of the industrial revolution onwards, he shows that there has been nothing 'natural' about the market state. Instead of reducing human relations and our environment to mere commodities, the economy must always be embedded in civil society. Describing the 'avalanche of social dislocation' of his time, Polanyi's hugely influential work is a passionate call to protect our common humanity. 'Polanyi's vision for an alternative economy re-embedded in politics and social relations offers a refreshing alternative' Guardian 'Polanyi exposes the myth of the free market' Joseph Stiglitz With a new introduction by Gareth Dale
