Beschreibung

In "An Account of the Growth of Deism in England," William Stephens offers a meticulous exploration of the intellectual currents that shaped the rise of Deism during the Enlightenment. Engaging with both historical texts and philosophical discourses, Stephens employs a clear, analytical style that reflects the rationalist tendencies of his subject matter. The book critically examines the interplay between religion and emerging scientific thought, shedding light on key figures and pivotal texts that contributed to the Deist movement, ultimately situating Deism within the broader context of 17th and 18th-century English philosophy. William Stephens, a noted scholar and historian of philosophy, composes this work during a time of burgeoning interest in rationalism and religious inquiry. His academic background, coupled with a deep engagement in contemporary debates about faith and reason, informs his nuanced perspective on the Deist phenomenon. As a keen observer of the socio-political changes of his era, Stephens articulates how these transformations influenced the evolution of religious thought in England. Richly informative and insightful, this book is recommended for scholars, students, and general readers interested in the intersections of philosophy, religion, and history. "An Account of the Growth of Deism in England" not only illuminates a significant movement but invites readers to reflect on the enduring questions of faith and reason.

    Every December two things are guaranteed for graphic designer Mackenzie Graham--Christmas celebrations and the annual promotion at her workplace. Those two things are by no means mutually exclusive. In fact, the better an employee is at harnessing the Christmas spirit, the more likely they'll win the new job. With her social anxiety, Mackenzie never thought she'd be a contender in her company's holiday competition, so how exactly has she found herself dueling her workplace crush with wrapping paper tubes and using tinsel as her weapon of choice for a much-needed raise? 
     
    Jeremy Fletcher's life is meticulously planned out, including how to win this year's promotion at work. Not only will the new position fulfill some of his career goals, but as a single guardian to his twin niece and nephew, he needs the salary increase to support his family. Jeremy has barely noticed Mackenzie Graham around the office, but now that she's his rival, he can't stop thinking about her. Her quirkiness intrigues him, and he's afraid that if he can't get his head on straight, the promotion isn't the only thing he'll end up losing to Mackenzie.
