Sinossi

In "Theoretical Ethics," M. Valentine presents a compelling exploration of moral philosophy, delving into various ethical frameworks that have shaped contemporary discourse. The work is characterized by its rigorous analytical approach and lucid prose, weaving together intricate theories from consequentialism to deontology and virtue ethics. Valentine situates these frameworks within a broader historical and philosophical context, engaging with both classical theorists like Kant and Mill, as well as modern thinkers, offering a rich tapestry of ideas that invite critical examination. This scholarly treatise not only elucidates complex ethical dilemmas but also poses challenging questions about the nature of moral responsibility in an increasingly complicated world. M. Valentine, a distinguished philosopher and educator, draws on years of academic inquiry and teaching in ethics and moral philosophy. Having experienced various cultural and ethical landscapes, the author is uniquely positioned to examine the nuanced implications of ethical theories in practice. This background fuels her desire to bridge the gap between theory and real-world application, encouraging readers to reflect on their own moral beliefs while navigating contemporary ethical challenges. Readers seeking a profound understanding of ethical theory will find "Theoretical Ethics" an invaluable resource. This book serves not only as an academic reference but also as an engaging guide for anyone interested in the complexities of moral reasoning. Whether you are a student, a scholar, or simply a curious mind, Valentine's work will enrich your perspective on the ethical dilemmas we face today.

The Sorceror's Secrets -...

Jason Miller

This book is about real magick, effecting real change, in a real world. There are some books on magick that teach it purely as spiritual advancement.

The second part presents clear strategies for tackling almost any type of issue with sorcery.In this book you will learn how to: Attack problems from multiple angles, not just by casting a spell.Blend mundane and magickal action to ensure success.Figure out whether what you are doing is working.Fix it if it isn't.Go beyond readings, into magickal intelligence-gathering.Influence the minds of other people.Work most effectively on behalf of others.The Sorcerer's Secrets will help rescue the art of Magick from those who have ignored, downplayed, or just outright denied the existence of practical sorcery in favor of arcane titles, intangible results, and fantasy attainments.
