The Quest Good Versus Evil

This pair of two short stories weave all elements that make up creative, thought-provoking story-telling. In the first short, it has violence, action, horror to satisfy those who delve into a suspenseful tale. Set in a deserted Phoenix Arizona, a pot of gold can lead to untold riches, fueled with influence and power. However, power and influence can go in any direction, either good or evil. Maybe this pot of gold isn't as simple as it appears. On the other, the next genre is completely different. Titled Only By Blood, it depicts the action, drama and crime aspects of any story. It is about two brothers who are drastically different, searching for fulfillment, and purpose in life. However, these two men- born in a ideal town of Naveah Colorado will take two different avenues to live their lives.

Tomas Sedlacek has shaken the study of economics as few ever have. Named one of the "Young Guns" and one of the "five hot minds in economics" by the Yale Economic Review, he serves on the National Economic Council in Prague, where his provocative writing has achieved bestseller status. How has he done it? By arguing a simple, almost heretical proposition: economics is ultimately about good and evil. In The Economics of Good and Evil, Sedlacek radically rethinks his field, challenging our assumptions about the world. Economics is touted as a science, a value-free mathematical inquiry, he writes, but it's actually a cultural phenomenon, a product of our civilization. It began within philosophy--Adam Smith himself not only wrote The Wealth of Nations, but also The Theory of Moral Sentiments--and economics, as Sedlacek shows, is woven out of history, myth, religion, and ethics. "Even the most sophisticated mathematical model," Sedlacek writes, "is, de facto, a story, a parable, our effort to (rationally) grasp the world around us." Economics not only describes the world, but establishes normative standards, identifying ideal conditions. Science, he claims, is a system of beliefs to which we are committed. To grasp the beliefs underlying economics, he breaks out of the field's confines with a tour de force exploration of economic thinking, broadly defined, over the millennia. He ranges from the epic of Gilgamesh and the Old Testament to the emergence of Christianity, from Descartes and Adam Smith to the consumerism in Fight Club. Throughout, he asks searching meta-economic questions: What is the meaning and the point of economics? Can we do ethically all that we can do technically? Does it pay to be good? Placing the wisdom of philosophers and poets over strict mathematical models of human behavior, Sedlacek's groundbreaking work promises to change the way we calculate economic value.

The beginning of an epic saga of a boy who will become a man and seek revenge on the ones who killed his parents and destroy the world he lives in. Along the way he falls in love with a girl who will change his life forever and a friend who will show him a destiny that will alter his course of revenge. A world covered in darkness becomes his motivation to find the truth behind his hardships, his destiny and the hero he must become. The world is coming to its end and he is the only one who can stop the evil darkness from fulfilling its plans of destruction. The line is drawn, and good and evil stand across each another as the final days of man are here.

In this multi-disciplinary collection we ask the question, 'What did, and do, Quakers think about good and evil?' There are no simple or straightforwardly uniform answers to this, but in this collection, we draw together contributions that for the first time look at historical and contemporary Quakerdom's approach to the ethical and theological problem of evil and good. Within Quakerism can be found Liberal, Conservative, and Evangelical forms. This book uncovers the complex development of metaethical thought by a religious group that has evolved with an unusual degree of diversity. In doing so, it also points beyond the boundaries of the Religious Society of Friends to engage with the spectrum of thinking in the wider religious world.

Lobel crosses Eastern and Western philosophical and religious traditions to discover a beauty and purpose at the heart of reality that makes life worth living. This title does not treat philosophy as an abstract, theoretical discipline but as living experience.
