A Philosophy of Education
$23.90This book begins with an original and critical analysis of the influence of Cartesian philosophical anthropology in educational thinking and proposes an Aristotelian attentiveness to practical reasons as an alternative. Pedagogical insights are developed and defended against Kantian and Humean objections. The author then argues for a meaningful education concerned with human rights, interpreted intelligently and grounded in one’s responsibilities to promote the common good and the basic aspects of human well-being. This text is an authoritative explication and creative retrieval of natural law theory for the field of philosophy of education. It will be useful not only to students of philosophy of education, but would also benefit students in education studies in general, as well as those interested in ethics, political theory and cultural studies.

A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Carnivorous Carnival #9
$14.90The Carnivorous Carnival contains such a distressing story that consuming any of its contents would be far more stomach-turning than even the most imbalanced meal. To avoid causing discomfort, it would be best if I didn’t mention any of the ingredients of this story, particularly a confusing map, an ambidextrous person, an unruly crowd, a wooden plank and Chabo the Wolf Baby. Your time might be better filled with something more palatable such as eating your vegetables or feeding them to someone else.

A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Grim Grotto #11
$14.90Dear Reader,
Unless you are a slug, a sea anemone, or mildew, you probably prefer not to be damp. You might also prefer not to read this book, in which the Baudelaire siblings encounter an unpleasant amount of dampness as they descend into the depths of despair, underwater.
In fact, the horrors they encounter are too numerous to list, and you wouldn’t want me even to mention the worst of it, which includes mushrooms, a desperate search for something lost, a mechanical monster, a distressing message from a lost friend, and tap dancing.
