Synopsis

In "Little Essays of Love and Virtue," Havelock Ellis presents a profound exploration of the intricate interplay between love, morality, and human sexuality. Written in a reflective and accessible literary style, these essays encapsulate a rich tapestry of thought characteristic of the early 20th century's social and psychological movements. Ellis delves into the nature of human relationships, emphasizing the importance of virtue as a foundation for love, all while challenging the contemporary conventions of his time. The nuanced interplay between erotic experience and moral philosophy offers readers a deep understanding of love's ethical dimensions. Havelock Ellis, a pioneering sexologist, was instrumental in advancing the field of human sexuality studies. His progressive views and advocacy for sexual freedom were informed by his own experiences and the prevailing Victorian attitudes towards sexuality. By intertwining personal insight with rigorous scholarship, Ellis sought to destigmatize topics surrounding love and intimacy, positioning his work at the intersection of psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This collection not only caters to those interested in the nuances of human relationships but brilliantly serves anyone seeking a deeper understanding of love's moral complexities. Readers will find Ellis's insights thought-provoking, making "Little Essays of Love and Virtue" an essential addition to the library of contemporary thinkers and lovers alike.

    Feeling overwhelmed by the multitude of religious doctrines and societal values? Discover how true humility and understanding can lead you to spiritual clarity.As society increasingly worships the material—money, fame, and power—many find themselves estranged from true spiritual fulfillment. This book challenges the superficial allure of these false idols, advocating for a life centered around spiritual truths and divine teachings. It provokes thought on the essence of true religion, critiquing the common dismissal of religious beliefs as outdated or false. This book refutes the concept of Religious Equality from many aspects. For the agnostic or secular or irreligious or anti-religious this book proves how everyone is upon a religious faith even if they don't know it and that it is impossible to not have a religion. Also the importance of choosing a religion is established as the most important decision one can make and the concept that all religions are equal is a extremist false faith.This masterpiece offers a deep dive into the essence of true religion, providing clarity and guidance. It is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the true path to spiritual enlightenment.

    Being a parent is probably the most important job many of us will ever have. In this book, clinical psychologist Dr. Edward Christophersen and his colleague, child psychologist Dr. Susan Mortweet, show parents how to raise their child to become the adult we'd all like to be—one who is happy and compassionate, confident but not aggressive, and able to make and keep friends. 
     
     
     
    They point out that from babyhood on through the school years, children learn these qualities by observing and interacting with their parents. In clearly written, easy-to-follow chapters, parents are shown how to model and reward positive behaviors and avoid the need for ineffective, punitive discipline. 
     
     
     
    Two key areas are covered in the book: building one's own skills as a parent, and then building one's child's competencies. Scores of practical examples show parents how to teach their children what is important in life, how to communicate clearly, and how to effectively discipline their child. Special parenting topics such as managing a child's behavior in public, monitoring TV, toys, and games, and handling fallout from divorce are also discussed. Listeners then learn how to build their child's basic skills by teaching him or her how to quickly get over upsets and how to play independently.

Amid growing geopolitical rivalries and the uncertainty provoked by the re-election of Donald Trump, this report aims to shed some clarity on an emerging trend that is already affecting the foreign policy of great powers in a region that is central to global affairs.

    Tyrell and Julia booked to travel on the Titanic with their two sons to introduce them to their American grandfather, but the children were too ill to travel. Julia persisted in going without them. The fatal and tragic decision not only led to the unnecessary loss of her husband, it was to haunt her for the next fifty years. Why was she so determined to go? In a letter written to her sons, as her death approached, she claimed the purpose of the visit was 'to gain her wealthy father's support for his son-in-law's ambition to stand as a Member of Parliament.' Yet Tyrell had shown no enthusiasm for making the journey, as Julia had already made the trip alone, the previous year quite safely. From the Carpathia Julia cabled her father, Henry Siegel, to have clothes from his department stores ready for the Titanic's survivors. In 1992 and 2002 her son and grandson learnt from chance encounters with New Yorkers of Julia's father's shocking fall from grace, the grandfather who owned a famous department store with a 'soda fountain meeting place'. Now can be revealed the true reason for her mission.
