About The World Explored, the World Suffered: The Exeter lectures

The Exeter Lectures is the first part of a trilogy and is a work of philosophical/ educational fiction. Its fictional component is composed of a middle-aged Romeo-Juliet drama which ends with two deaths in Venice and a youthful adventure that takes Robert, the narrator from trauma in South Africa to a teacher training institute in England where he discovers Philosophy and befriends an alcoholic lecturer who had once studied under Wittgenstein.
The educational component is composed of a series of lectures on the philosophy of religion, psychoanalysis, aesthetics, ethics, the philosophy of natural science, human science and mathematics, philosophical psychology, political science, philosophy of education. Three different lecturers deliver a series of lectures, the educational intention of which is to introduce the reader to the world of Philosophy and the world of Education seen through the eyes of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hobbes, Hume, Hegel, Marx, Tolstoy, Kant, Schopenhauer, Freud, William James, Wittgenstein Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau- Ponty, Arendt, Quine, Cavell, Paul Ricoeur, Brian O Shaughnessy, R. S. Peters, Peter Winch, Paul Hirst, Hudson, Adrian Stokes, T S Eliot, Julian Jaynes.
The book attempts to take the reader on a philosophical journey from curiosity to commitment and it is hoped that the trilogy will serve as a general introduction to Philosophy for all who are curious about the eternal Philosophical questions such as “What is the nature of Reality?” “Is God merely an idea in our minds?” “Is the soul a function of the body?” What is Justice?” “What is ethics?” “What is the role of Education in the life of the individual and society?”How should we characterize the feeling of the sublime?” “How shall we characterize the feeling of the beautiful?” “What properties do great works of Art possess?” What is the philosophical role of Psychoanalysis?” “How shall we philosophically characterize the role of language in our understanding of the world?” “What is the meaning of life?”

Flames of Love by Erin Wright  

About Flames of Love by Erin Wright

Jaxson’s not interested in love, or the perils that come with it. His priority is caring for his two small boys, and being fire chief of Sawyer. Everything changes the day he catches sight of Sugar, the pretty girl with the fragile smile. He wants her all to himself, and preferably in his bed – a no-strings arrangement that won’t break what’s left of his heart. But love’s as unpredictable as fire…

***

AUTHOR’S NOTE: “Flames of Love” is on preorder, so it does not have a star rating yet. However, all of my other books have anywhere from a 4.3 star to 4.9 star average rating, and I would be shocked beyond words if “Flames” ends up with an average rating lower than 4.5. I am a USA Today Bestselling Author, and this is my attempt to hit the list for a second time. I’d love any help you could give me! My book is going live on the 23rd; a promotion anytime between the 23rd and the 27th is what I’m needing. If you’re not able to get me in during that time period, please cancel the booking. Thank you!!!!!

Chasing Rhinos With The Swami  

About Chasing Rhinos With The Swami

The Beatles, Hippies And A Spiritual Revolution
When A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupad came to America from India in 1965, few Westerners knew the deep spiritual truths behind ancient Vedic culture and civilization. Sam Speerstra, Shyamasundar Das, became one of the first disciples of the Krishna movement. His astonishing coming of age story is a wild ride through the Summer of Love in San Francisco, connecting with the Beatles in London and traveling with the Swami to India and beyond.

Author Bio:
I was born in the body of Samuel Speerstra, in Salem, Oregon in May ,1942. From early childhood I thrived on adventure and risk. After graduating from Reed College in 1965, I met Bhaktivedanta Swami in San Francisco in January 1967, and immediately became his disciple Shyamasundar Das. The Swami wed me to my girlfriend Melanie (Malati Devi Dasi) in a smoke-filled storefront in Haight-Ashbury we called the Radha-Krishna Temple.

In 1968, to please Swamiji, I traveled with five chosen devotees to London. There, we witnessed firsthand Krishna’s magic display; we befriended the Beatles and, courtesy of Apple Records, spread Hare Krishna Mantra around the world. In October 1970, the Swami took twenty of his Western disciples to India, and together–as Prabhupad and his Dancing White Elephants–we barnstormed the country.

“A cross between Bridget Jones’s Diary and Interview with the Vampire.” —Latina Magazine

Funny, flirty Milagro De Los Santos doesn’t quite fit in anywhere, but still manages to have fun in her haphazard city life of temp jobs, nightclubbing, and arty boyfriends. She writes political horror stories about zombies and hopes to be published. Then one night, at a book party for her pretentious ex, she meets Oswald, a fabulous man who tells her he’s interested in her writing. A mad kissing session leads to cut lips and an accidental exchange of blood.

Then for the first time in Milagro’s life, she becomes sick and develops strange cravings for raw meat. When her ex-boyfriend kidnaps her, accusing her of being a vampire, Oswald’s family comes to her rescue and hides her away to recover at their wine country estate.

The family thinks she’s a trashy gold-digger. She thinks they’re terrible snobs. Can they learn to tolerate one another long enough to defeat their mutual enemies and make it home for cocktail hour?
