Paperback. Condition: Good. What happened to the European mind between 1605, when an audience watching Macbeth at the Globe might believe that regicide was such an aberration of the natural order that ghosts could burst from the ground, and 1649, when a large crowd, perhaps including some who had seen Macbeth forty-four years earlier, could stand and watch the execution of a king? Or consider the difference between a magus casting a star chart and the day in 1639, when Jonathan Horrock and William Crabtree watched the transit of Venus across the face of the sun from their attic, successfully testing its course against Kepler?s Tables of Planetary Motion, in a classic case of confirming a scientific theory by empirical testing.In this turbulent period, science moved from the alchemy and astrology of John Dee to the painstaking observation and astronomy of Galileo, from the classicism of Aristotle, still favoured by the Church, to the evidence-based, collegiate investigation of Francis Bacon. And if the old ways still lingered and affected the new mind set ? Descartes?s dualism an attempt to square the new philosophy with religious belief; Newton, the man who understood gravity and the laws of motion, still fascinated to the end of his life by alchemy ? by the end of that tumultuous century ?the greatest ever change in the mental outlook of humanity? had irrevocably taken place.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In seventeenth century Scotland, Edinburgh was a filthy backwater synonymous with poverty, disease, and religious fanaticism. A century later, it was an intellectual hotbed, producing groundbreaking books like Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations and James Boswell's The Life of Samuel Johnson. Other luminaries like David Hume, Robert Burns, the chemist James Black, and the geologist James Hutton added to Edinburgh's reputation as a center of creativity and innovation. In his remarkable work Crowded with Genius, James Buchan reconstructs the intimate geographic scale and boundless intellectual world of Enlightenment Edinburgh. The history of the town's transformation and most glorious era is recounted here with Buchan's trademark intellectual elegance and his novelist's flair for vividly bringing a place to life.James Buchan is an acclaimed novelist and critic. He is the author of The Persian Bride, a New York Times Notable Book, as well as Frozen Desire, an examination of money that received the Duff Cooper Prize in 1998. He has also won the Whitbread Prize and the Guardian Fiction Award. He is a contributor to The New York Times Book Review and The New York Observer, and a former foreign correspondent for The Financial Times. He lives in Norfolk, England."A vivacious and erudite celebration of the flowering of Scottish intellectual life in the eighteenth century." -- The New Yorker.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. NATIONAL BESTSELLER . Mental toughness, mental clarity, and mental health all have one thing in common: The journey begins in your mind. In this radical guide, the award-winning author of The Last Arrow illuminates a surprising path toward personal fulfillment and optimal performance. "Erwin McManus is the most brilliant thinker I've ever met."-fourteen-time bestselling author Jon Gordon Throughout his thirty years of work as a mindset expert and leadership coach, Erwin Raphael McManus has been obsessed with these questions: Why do some people succeed despite having all the odds stacked against them? How do others achieve the unthinkable, only to watch their lives slip away? Are there mental structures for failure and success? McManus has come to realize that too many of us have "near-life" experiences. We almost pursue our dreams. We almost make the decision that changes everything. We are always one choice away. If we want to live without regret, we need to make a mind shift-trading beliefs that limit our potential for ones that help us move toward optimal performance and pursue the success of being fully alive. We must move from a life of obligation to a life of intention. In Mind Shift, McManus brings together twelve mental frameworks that have helped some of the most accomplished people on earth create internal structures of success. Among them: . You have to choose between acceptance and uniqueness. If you are addicted to affirmation, you will become what others want you to be rather than who you were created to become. . You don't need an audience. It's what you do in private that makes you who you are. . Talent is a hallucinogen. It will make you believe that hard work and discipline are for everyone else. Sharing experiences from entrepreneurs, artists, professional athletes, and his own career, McManus shows us how to transform our thinking-and, in turn, transform our lives.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. **Also an Academy Award-winning film starring Russell Crowe and Jennifer Connelly--directed by Ron Howard** The powerful, dramatic biography of math genius John Nash, who overcame serious mental illness and schizophrenia to win the Nobel Prize. "How could you, a mathematician, believe that extraterrestrials were sending you messages?" the visitor from Harvard asked the West Virginian with the movie-star looks and Olympian manner. "Because the ideas I had about supernatural beings came to me the same way my mathematical ideas did," came the answer. "So I took them seriously." Thus begins the true story of John Nash, the mathematical genius who was a legend by age thirty when he slipped into madness, and who--thanks to the selflessness of a beautiful woman and the loyalty of the mathematics community--emerged after decades of ghostlike existence to win a Nobel Prize for triggering the game theory revolution. The inspiration for an Academy Award-winning movie, Sylvia Nasar's now-classic biography is a drama about the mystery of the human mind, triumph over adversity, and the healing power of love.…
