Ellen J. Lippert, "George Ohr: Sophisticate and Rube"
English | 2013 | pages: 207 | ISBN: 1617039012, 1617039020 | PDF | 33,5 mb
The late nineteenth-century Biloxi potter, George Ohr, was considered an eccentric in his time but has emerged as a major figure in American art since the discovery of thousands of examples of his work in the 1960s. Currently, Ohr is celebrated as a solitary genius who foreshadowed modern art movements. While an intriguing narrative, this view offers a narrow understanding of the man and his work that has hindered serious consideration.

David Berman, "George Berkeley Alciphron in Focus"
English | 1993 | ISBN: 0415063736 | PDF | pages: 244 | 1.2 mb
Alciphron, or the Minute Philosopher (1732) is Berkeley's main work of philosophical theology and a crucial source of his views on meaning and language. This edition contains the four most important dialogues and a selection of critical essays and commentaries reflecting the response of such writers as Hutcheson, Mill and Antony Flew. The only single edition currently in print, it argues that Alciphron has a more important place both in the Berkeley canon and in early modern philosophy than is generally thought.

The Presidency of George W. Bush (American Presidency) by John Robert Greene
English | October 15, 2021 | ISBN: 0700632689 | True EPUB/PDF | 416 pages | 4.6/7.97 MB
The Presidency of George W. Bush is the first balanced academic study to analyze the entirety of his presidency-domestic, social, economic, and national security policies-as well as the administration's response to 9/11 and the subsequent War on Terror. In so doing, John Robert Greene argues persuasively that the judgment of most scholars-that the Bush administration was a complete failure-has been made in haste and without the benefit of primary sources. This book is the first scholarly work to make wide use of the documents at the George W. Bush Presidential Library, many of which have only recently been made available to researchers through the Freedom of Information Act.
