The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

The voice of today's society - the media - (unintentionally) works against happiness. There is a constant, streaming bombardment of "Bad News." Young girls are encouraged to find power in sexuality, suffering, and entitlement. Addictive behavior is sensationalized and glamorized. Many in the media promote lying, deception, and revenge as profitable. There are even messages teaching how to get away with murder.Where are the messages regarding the incredible power of choice, personal responsibility, and accountability? Why isn't every growing girl told that she is responsible for her happiness?The impact a father has on his daughter - especially during these modern times - is both profound and immense. Fathers can't do much about the focus of the media. Smut sells. But, it is not the media's duty to provide daughters with the tools necessary for a happy life.In this one-of-a-kind, educational, witty, and humorous "fun guide," Griffith reveals the secrets of happiness that every dad should teach his daughter so that she can grow into the amazing, powerful, world-changing woman she was meant to become.Recognizing that a father's impact upon his daughter is achieved through healthy and personal interactions, Griffith's guidance is written in a format intended to be shared between father and daughter. Using the powerful tools of metaphoric story-telling, introspective letters, and creative activities, Griffith shares the seven keys to happiness that are critical to staving off the effect of the foes of happiness that permeate society today.With topics such as art, history, physics, spirituality, philosophy, earth science, unexplainable phenomena, pop-culture, science fiction, and more, Griffith teaches both father and daughter the keys to remaining happy throughout life by embracing considered thought, emotion, and imagination.

I grew up in a neighborhood with some quirky, superstitious friends. Living next door to me was Eileen, who lived in constant fear of the number 13. Across the street was this guy named Tuck. Sadly for him, we had a lot of cats in our neighborhood, most of them black. Tuck walked for miles to avoid their bad luck. And living right around the corner from me was this guy named Zack, who walked with a hop to avoid stepping on a crack. My first crush was Vera, we were together in 3rd grade. And then she disappeared for seven long years. . . something to do with Vera breaking a mirror. That "ain't" living.Super Stitches is a one-of-a-kind, 478-word children's picture book for early readers up to age 8. This book is illustrated in collage art form by the very precious kiddos to whom I first read Super Stitches on Friday the 13th in April 2018. Super Stitches addresses the very message that growing children need to hear. "The most important belief you can hold on to as you grow older is to stay true to yourself. You, believe in you."

Tampa Bay was a land full of promise in 1898 to enterprising souls who could see beyond the palmetto- and insect-crowded jungle. Clifford Austin, a young man transplanted by his luckless parents, exhibits a ferocious desire to surpass any competitor as he builds an empire building boats in the nascent town of St Petersburg. He designs and builds small pleasure and commercial craft well into the 1920's, when design and capabilities were progressing in leaps and bounds. His relentless acquisitiveness leads attempts to bed every woman he meets and dominate every man he ever knows. He sets up a string of decisions that lead to a conflict that could be his undoing, but Clifford Austin thrives on conflict, whether internal or external, even if he doesn't necessarily seek it. His intense narcissism and sociopathic tendencies guide his every action in his business and romantic endeavors. Clifford Austin's story is a raucous tale about an explosive time in an untamed future paradise.
