Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It scares the hell out of me. Every day, politics gets closer to the reality you project.”—Bob Cone, inventor of Liquid LightThe second strike is on.John Galt's strike of the “men of the mind” brought down Roger Thompson's dictatorship and ushered in a conservative dream: no taxes, regulations, or social programs. The end of government services such as policing, firefighting, and infrastructure-building has created a vacuum filled by unscrupulous and unregulated businesses that few can afford. With no safety or labor standards, most Americans have abandoned their homes to work several jobs in the cities. After eight years of living in a dog-eat-dog wasteland, America has elected liberal Senator Laurence Sterling (D-VT) president.Mere days before Sterling's inauguration, twenty-six-year-old World Times reporter Evelyn Riley hears that in recent months both absenteeism and productivity have risen at General Motors, one of the two remaining automobile manufacturers in Detroit, and decides to investigate. Her mother's death decades before reminds her daily of the importance of family and human connections. Little does Evelyn know that John Galt is planning his return to fight Sterling, or that this time a new generation of labor leaders is preparing a strike of its own.“If you have ever read Atlas Shrugged, whether you liked it or not, you really should read this book.”—David Scott Moyer “I really like your quote 'I live for Humanity, and I ask Humanity to live for me (and for everyone else).' That's the way it should be.”—Paul Buchheit, professor of economic justice at DePaul UniversityFor more information, please view sisyphusshruggedbook.com or robertpeate.com.

Book Synopsis Finite Transcendence by : Steven A. Burr
Download or read book Finite Transcendence written by Steven A. Burr and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absurdity, time, death—each poses a profound threat to Being, compelling us to face our limits and our finitude. Yet what does it mean to fully realize and experience these threats? Finite Transcendence: Existential Exile and the Myth of Home presents a thoughtful and thorough examination of these challenges and questions, arguing the universality of the realization of finitude in the experience of exile. By tracing the historical presence and experience of notions of “faith” and “exile” in Western thought from the Ancient Greeks to the present, Steven A. Burr demonstrates the character of each as fundamental constitutive components of what it means to be human. The book discusses essential elements of each, culminating in a compelling account of “existential exile” as a definitive name for the human experience of finitude. Burr follows with a comprehensive analysis of the writings of Albert Camus, demonstrating an edifying articulation of, engagement with, and reconciliation of the condition of existential exile. Finally, based on the model suggested in Camus’s approach, Burr discusses responses to exile and articulates the meaning of home as the transcendence of exile. Finite Transcendence is a work that will be of great value to anyone working in or studying existentialism, philosophy of religion, hermeneutics, and social theory, as well as to anyone interested in questions of faith and society, religion, or secularity.
