Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, the last in a series of essays by a popular early 18th-century periodical, features pieces on subjects as varied as the benefits of tea-drinking, the evolution of sign language, and the morality of dueling. It also acts as a time capsule, capturing a moment in history when British society was undergoing profound transformations. Drawing on everything from personal anecdotes to the latest scientific discoveries, the author contemplates human nature and the human condition, from the inherent absurdity of much of human behavior to the supreme importance of morality and virtue. By collecting these essays, the author leaves readers with an insightful record of the manners, customs, and foibles of his day, along with incisive observations on what it means to be human and how to live a good life.
