Restoring Pride
ISBN: 9781573920247 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The ideas put forth in Restoring Pride will seem, to many readers, elitist. That's because they are. Richard Taylor rejects the popular notion that all people are equal, embracing instead the idea that some people are simply better than others as human beings. Their superiority has nothing to do with class, power, or wealth; they are better because they are gifted and have made the most of their gifts. Taylor doesn't try to be politically correct and makes no apologies; he explains what it means to be more than normal and encourages people to fulfill their potential. Pride, according to...

Aby si vynutili poslušnost společností, které ovládli, nepoužívali Hitlerovi nacisté a sovětští bolševici jen teroru. Veledůležitým nástrojem jejich moci byla také propaganda. A nejmocnějším nástrojem propagandy byl v první polovině 20. století film; na tom by se Lenin s Goebbelsem jistě shodli. O tom, jak si bolševici a nacisté ve svých zemích podmanili filmové společnosti a posléze i značnou část filmových tvůrců, a také o jejich nejvýraznějších propagandistických filmech, jež byly samozřejmě vydávané za „umělecké“ či...

Understanding Marriage: Making It Work, or Knowing When to Leave
ISBN: 9781591021520 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Based on numerous interviews with people from both good and failed marriages, his own experience, and years of thinking about the subject, philosopher/marriage counselor Richard Taylor has developed a set of compelling proposals for reforming marriage.
Taylor argues that marriage should not be thought of as a status created by the one-time event of a wedding, but rather as a long-term process. The idea that a legal ceremony can create a marriage is a legal fiction, he says. In reality, couples become married through years of mutual regard and caring, based upon the mutual fulfillment of...
