Locke - A Guide for the PerplexedLocke - A Guide for the Perplexed

This title presents a concise and coherent overview of Locke, ideal for second- or third-year undergraduates who require more than just a simple introduction to his work and thought. John Locke is a clear and lucid writer who wrote on many subjects and founded many new schools of thought. Yet, while his work is not impossible to read, his thought is sufficiently subtle, complex and intricate that he can be agonizingly hard to follow, presenting students of philosophy with a number of difficulties and challenges.

Plato - A Guide for the PerplexedPlato - A Guide for the Perplexed

It is widely agreed that Plato laid the foundations for the whole history of western thought and, well over 2000 years later, his work is still studied by every student of philosophy. Yet his thought and writings continue to evoke perplexity in readers; and perplexity (aporia) is itself a characteristic of many of his writings, a recurrent motif of his thought, and apparently an important stage one must pass through along the path to wisdom that Plato presents.

50 Years of Hockey - An Intimate History of the National Hockey League50 Years of Hockey - An Intimate History of the National Hockey League

This book is a summary of the first 50 years of the National Hockey League, written in 1967. I enjoyed reading this book, mainly just to read the 1967 perspective on hockey events of the past and what people thought would happen in the future.

Genius and InsanityGenius and Insanity

A collection of puzzles of different kinds. It is the same book offered for download, but printed in black and white without a couple of colour graphics (171 pages). I thought the book would be too expensive if printed in colours for only a couple of pages .
