Naming and Necessity
21
 
 

Naming and NecessityIf there is such a thing as essential reading in metaphysics or in philosophy of language, this is it.

Ever since the publication of its original version, Naming and Necessity has had great and increasing influence. It redirected philosophical attention to neglected questions of natural and metaphysical necessity and to the connections between these and theories of reference, in particular of naming, and of identity.

Terrorism and the Illuminati: A Three Thousand Year History
46
 
 
Terrorism and the Illuminati traces and connects individual groups such as the Holy Grail, Freemasonry, the Knights Templar and many others. Lords, legends, myths and elite bloodlines, when analyzed independently appear insignificant and are easily ignored. However, when the dots are connected, a very different picture beings to come into focus. According to like-minded individuals, keeping these connections broken and the lines blurred, has allowed these secret societies and their members to operate in the shadows of a meticulously cultivated public image.

Alexander Graham Bell : Making Connections
23
 
 

Alexander Graham Bell : Making ConnectionsThis extremely useful book concentrates more on Bell's work as an educator and inventor than on his personal life. Two-to-three page inserts explain the various scientific principles discussed in the main text. For example, Bell was intensely involved in teaching the deaf. As this part of his life is discussed, an insert explains sound, speech, and hearing, and how all three are intertwined. Glimpses of the man behind the scientist are given in a lively, yet informative fashion. Black-and-white photos and reproductions enhance the presentation and bring the personal details to life.

Near a Thousand Tables: A History of Food

Near a Thousand Tables: A History of Food

"In this book, I aim not to replace other histories of food but to offer readers a useful alternative: to take a genuinely global perspective; to treat food history as a theme of world history, inseparable from all the other interactions of human beings with one another and with the rest of nature; to treat evenhandedly the ecological, cultural and culinary concepts of the subject; to combine a broad conspectus with selectively detailed excursions into particular cases; to trace connections, at every stage, between the food of the past and the way we eat today; and to do all this briefly. . . One can philosophize quite well while preparing supper.
