Book Synopsis The Revelation of Jack by : Laura Seeber

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was the winter of 1789 and all Jack wanted was some peace... Jack hoped that the war wouldn't follow him into the mountains of western North Carolina, just south of what would later become Tennessee. He prayed that his small shack and the mountain air would grant him solace and the time he needed to heal his mind and body. He had a wife and son waiting for him, after all. All they wanted was a little fun... Elijah, William, and Julius were always warned not to venture into the mountains; the dangers lurking within them were real. It was better to stay behind, doing chores, learning from their teacher, Master Hicks, and going to church. But boys will be boys, and a little bit of excitement and danger is just what they need. All it wanted was revenge... The old Indian trader Sam knew just how dangerous the mountains could be. He knew of the shadow demons that slept fitfully in the darkness, waiting hungrily for their murderous revenge. Sam and his daughter Dorothy had stood vigil against that day and hoped that the horrors of the past would never come again. Now through accident or design, that day has arrived.

Gilpin may exorcise their ghosts, but he brings new terrors with his justice. Kitty Aylward watches in horror as he tears apart the lives of people she has loved and respected. After a wonderful childhood with her constant companions, Billy and Jack, Kitty had finally married Billy but before he left to fight Billy asked for one strange promise: if he should die, she must marry his closest friend. When her husband was killed kept her oath, but now she slowly realises that Gilpin could hold a terrible secret concerning Jack, and Billy's death.

Book Synopsis Forming Impressions by : Elijah Chudnoff
Download or read book Forming Impressions written by Elijah Chudnoff and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-23 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perception and intuition are our basic sources of knowledge about the concrete world around us, and more abstract matters such as mathematics, metaphysics, and morality. Perception and intuition, however, are also capacities we deliberately improve in ways that draw on our knowledge about these domains. How can the sensory and intellectual impressions that lie at the foundation of our knowledge themselves be informed by our knowledge? In Forming Impressions: Expertise in Perception and Intuition, Chudnoff addresses this and other questions that derive from trying to understand the improvability of our basic sources of knowledge. At the extreme of improvement lies expertise, and there is a wealth of research on the structures and mechanisms underlying expert perception and expert intuition that promises to illuminate the nature and significance of improvements to these sources of knowledge in general. Taking this cue, the first part of the book lays the groundwork for the rest by elaborating an interpretation of the psychology of expertise. The second part develops a setting for thinking about the epistemology of expert perception and expert intuition. The third part of the book explores the significance of the resulting view of intuition and its improvability for recent debates about philosophical methodology. Chudnoff defends a rationalist view of the role of intuition in philosophy that can be traced back to classic works on methodology such as Descartes' Rules and Spinoza's Emendation of the Intellect.
