A Rebel To His Last Breath provides the first biography of one Joseph McCabe, a former Catholic priest who became a champion of free thought and rationalism in the first half of the 20th century. Why chart the life of a man largely forgotten today? Because he tackled some of the most controversial issues of spirituality and social issues of modern times, and his efforts and writings continue to influence.

Most biblical scholars today have concluded that St. John of Zebedee did NOT write the Gospel in the New Testament which bears his name. These scholars assert that the Gospel of John was authored by an ANONYMOUS follower of Jesus referred to within its text as "the disciple whom Jesus loved." No name is given for this disciple. Grassi does an excellent job of summarizing all of the main issues involved in the attempt to identify the author of the Fourth Gospel. He treats this topic with the importance that it deserves. Who is the Beloved Disciple of the Fourth Gospel? The Gospel cites this disciple as the primary eyewitness to the events it describes. The Gospel also repeatedly refers to this disciple as the one whom Jesus loved the most. Yet, the NAME of this disciple seems to have been intentionally omitted from the text. ...Why?If you are looking for a concise, well-written, thoroughly-researched introduction to this most intriguing mystery -- I highly recommend this book.

I was a student in the social psych class module in Australia and Sabini's textbook on social psychology really fascinates the whole class! An U.Penn academic in Social Psych thoroughly describes and features concrete, research and stage theories from the research field of social psych....Sabini's textbook is so detailed and stimulating to read that when exams comes ...I have problems in recalling ....(...Sight...)

As a result, I had decided to purchase this Sabini study guide to social psychology. This study guide is structured and formatted into organised chapters related exactly to the textbook. Each chapter in the study guide first comprise of essay structured questionnaires, followed by a series of multiple-choice-questionnaires (MCQ's), and then structured short sentenced questionnaires. Answers to the MCQ's are provided at the end of every chapter and structured short sentenced questionnaires with answers beside them.

I personally find that the study guide is really beneficial to anyone who owns the textbook on Sabini !

St. John Bosco's spiritual mentor and model in the priesthood, told by St. John Bosco himself. Called "The Priest of the Gallows," because he converted so many condemned criminals. Inspiring! 80pp. PB. Imprimatur.

This little prayer book is thorough. It contains the Breviary, as well as prayers for all occasions. I especially like the commentaries on spirituality and prayer by those who have formed our heritage--Teresa of Avila, John Henry Newman, and many others. All of this in a compact little book.

The author weaves words into images that are common to us all. He uses words that one would not have thought to connect to common experiences, and yet these words paint a mood and a picture so clear that the reader feels he is standing beside the author's thoughts, as if he were intruding on the author's most private feelings and memories. I recommend this book to stir your thoughts and memories like the rustling of fall leaves.

This is one of those books that falls out of print and causes mass panic in graduate student communities as we find ourselves hunting for copies with on-line rare book search engines with no hope for success. Can't find it used when no one will let go of it. Saints be praised, its back. Kaplan's essays 'demonstratives' and 'afterthoughts' are classics and need to be studied by anyone interested in the golden triangle of philosophy (phil. language, mind, and epistemology). Kit Fine's essay on de re modality is excellent, and with articles by Peacocke, Wettstein, Almog, and a host of other friends of Kaplan, no entry will fail to repay serious attention. Do not miss the opportunity to purchase this book.

This was my textbook in my undergrad and which I cherish having around me. Gives a comprehensive treatment of kinematics uptill the level demanded for a practising mechanical engineer.

This is an excellent book for anyone wanting an overview and background on Toynbee's 'A Study of History'. Read this book first before attempting to read the 12 volume set. Contains an very good overview of the civilizations that Toynbee uses as examples in the'Study".
