Fascinating "platonic" dialogue treating human progress...
Solovyov's "Three Conversations" is a fascinating inquiry in the form of a platonic dialogue examining the nature of war and human progress. The initial subject for examination is more or less as follows: given the nature of man, is war an inevitable (a necessary, or even good) factor of history, or will humanity progress beyond the need of war? Like a typical platonic dialogue, Solovyov too ...

Mr. Capt again makes the complex simple. Understanding the "keys" of the bible...unlock many of the mysteries of prophecy. Many wonder why "America" the greatest super power of all time is not mentioned in the scriptures. It has been said, this vast Christian nation has no particular role in the "end times." Mr. Capt shows how America (stone kingdom) plays the final culminating role of this age. ...

This brilliant and dazzling novel includes a labyrinthine mystery which will keep most readers glued to every page trying to understand and solve the puzzle. The author has a great understanding of genetics and the Book of Revelations which he creatively weaves into the plot along with archealogical findings. His imagination runs into overtime but the science he uses creates very believable ...

Appreciation of an unknown book
This book is mostly unknown, although it is, in my opinion, one of the greatest novels ever written. The accuracy and depth of the historical reconstruction give a keen insight into the times of italian Renaissance, providing an extraordinary and original portrait of the great genius and his lonely wanderings through late 15th century Italy. The insight the author manages to give on the ...

God, are you there? If so, are you laughing as hard as me?
The author is clearly angry at society. He rips on the Church, politics, self-help groups, corporations, and even God! Judging by how screwed up the planet is can you blame him? This is a fun read following a guy's journey through Heaven and back. But come on, Mexicans sneaking into Heaven! That alone makes this story funny beyond belief. It's like South Park on steroids. If you are extremely ...

My privilege
I had the great privilege of seeing Fulton Sheen's television show the first time around. I was just a child, but the man with the twinkling eyes and beetle brows spoke to me as well as to my parents. His warmth, kindness, holiness and humor absolutely radiated. We are fortunate that the author and editor of this book took the time to save these wonderful and holy thoughts of a wonderful and ...

A spellbinding adventure with an uplifting message
If you're an action-adventure fan in search of something fresh, energetic and satisfying, then get on board The CAUL. James Allan Matte may be a new name in fiction, but he's hardly a new name in writing. As a polygraph examiner, I was already well acquainted with Matte's authoritative works on forensic psychophysiology (lie detection), but little did I know that the author had an equal talent ...

The Legend of the Anti-Christ Retold
This short prose work by Vladimir Solovyev, subtitled "A Fable of the Deceiver," is a handy re-telling of the legend of the Anti-Christ from a Russian perspective. Based largely upon the Book of Revelation, but "fleshed-out" into a more modern prose narrative, the "Tale of the Anti-Christ" presents a more orthodox, and a more Orthodox, Solovyev than the mystical poet on display in the "Sophia" ...

Nietzsche: The Anti-Christ, Ecce Homo, Twilight of the Idols
The Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy yet again struck gold, enshrining history's greatest thinkers in pre-eminently handsome texts, robust and readable translations, and scholarly and timely commentary and introductory exegesis. Despite Nietzsche's admonition greeting us in the very first prefatory page, this book belongs not to the few, but to all seeking meaning beyond society's ...

A good place to start
This was the first Nietzsche I read about 6 years ago at University. I only understood about 40% of it and have reread it about 3 times, each time understanding more. Anything of Nietzsche's is good. It's just a matter of rereading it if you really don't get it. The bits which at first seem like padding become the most interesting bits eventually. This is a good place to start partly ...

I also want you to know that I like Mormons, and even love a few, some of whom I consider to be the finest people who ever walked in shoe leather, as my grandmother used to say.

Who thought Nietzche wrote comedy?
I went into this book with no real knowledge of Nietzche's writings, and even less about how funny the topic of Christianity could be as told from the Nihilist perspective. I was chuckling more often than not while reading about the history of the Christian faith as he belittles their faith in what he would refer to as a weak and underwhelming God painted in our own image... I look forward to ...

Most Interesting Work on the Subject
It is a shame that Poliakov is not better known in this country. The subject matter is far greater than the title suggests. This is really a kind of panoramic history of Europe in the style of Braudel, only much less densely written and pleasurable to read. The translation only improves matters. With all the poorly written material on this subject, it is a shame that Poliakov is not brought ...

Better than you'd think
There is a fine line between farce and simply being absurd, between making a point and clobbering the reader over the head with it. Matthew Moses walks that fine line daringly in Anti-Christ: A Satirical End of Days. There are many in its intended audience who will view it all as a reflection of the renowned mantra from Network, 'I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this any more!' Moses is ...

Tale of Popular Culture, Morbid Fascination, and Religion
Engaging and thoughtful, a fascinating look at post-reformation England and the means by which a common discourse was used by different groups for different purposes. The author provides reflections on much more in the 700+ pages; all are worth reading. Highly recommended for anyone interested in vital, often ignored, dynamics in the the birthing of the modern world.
