Notes Taken During the Expedition Commanded by Capt. R. B. Marcy, U. S. A. Through Unexplored Texas, in the Summer and Fall of 1854 (Classic Reprint) (9780656329793)

Excerpt from Notes Taken During the Expedition Commanded by Capt. R. B. Marcy, U. S. A. Through Unexplored Texas, in the Summer and Fall of 1854 These desultory Notes, taken merely to refresh my memory when recurring. To scenes so fraught, to me, with interesting reminiscences, would never have met the public eye had it not been for the kind and flattering solicitations of friends who have perused my journal; and if, by putting them in print, I can excite one-half the interest and pleasure with the general reader which the expedition gave me, I shall be amply repaid for the time spent and the care taken in writing my book.

The Works of Jonathan Edwards, Vol. 4 : Volume 4: The Great Awakening (9780300158427)

Interpreting the Great Awakening of the eighteenth century was in large part the work of Jonathan Edwards; whose writings on the subject defined the revival tradition in America. Moving from sensitive descriptions of "the Surprising work of God" in conversion to a consuming quest for the essence of true religion, and threading his way through mounting controversies over "errors in doctrine and disorders in practice," Edwards sought to locate an authentic core of evangelical experience, to define it in terms of biblical faith and psychological insight, and to defend it against both overheated zealous and rationalistic critics. The tracts that unfold his thoughts, presented here (with related correspondence ) for the first time in accurate critical texts, document a movement so significant for the American character that it has been called "our national conversion." In a carefully researched introduction, C.C. Goen identifies the "Arminian threat"...

How to Think More Effectively : a guide to greater productivity, insight and creativity (9781912891139)

A guide to identifying, nurturing and growing our insight and creativity for more effective thinking. We know that our minds are capable of great things because, every now and then, they come out with a very brilliant idea or two. However, our minds are also tantalisingly unpredictable, spending worryingly large stretches of time idling or distracting themselves. This is a book about how to optimise these beautiful yet fitful instruments so that they can more regularly and generously produce the sort of insights and ideas we need to fulfil our potential - and achieve the contentment we deserve. We learn - among other things - how to grasp fragile and flighty thoughts before they disappear through anxiety and fear, at what times of day to try to work and for how long, how to make use of our boredom and instincts - and how to overcome timid and predictable approaches to the largest problems.
