The doctrine of the Trinity has been central to Christian faith since the fourth century, but it is often the cause of more confusion than understanding. The author here overcomes this by looking at it from the point of view of one who vehemently rejected it. Eunomius of Cyzicus was condemned as a heretic during his lifetime in the fourth century and after. Richard Paul Vaggione uses Eunomius' life to examine how the whole Christian community, including ordinary men and women, helped determine how this often abused doctrine was - and is - understood.

Johnny Flannigan developed a sixth sense about trouble at an early age: it always happens when you're not dressed.

Johnny grew up in a ragtag family full of what other folk called "characters." His dad and mother, who lived on small change and laughs, had Johnny late in life. But when Johnny was seventeen, things began to look up. He and his new friend, Jesse Davidson, teamed up with Eddie Freeman, a fast-talking kid who would later became manager for the singing duo, Jesse and Johnny. Together, the three boys began to make a little money, learning the entertainment business by trial and error.

Eddie will do whatever it takes to make his friends (and clients) into superstars. Johnny loses his heart to a faithful hometown girl named Joyce, and all is bliss-that is, until Ruby Van-Heusen, an older woman with more than enough money (but not enough scruples), steps in with her own agenda.

When Levi, Johnny's unpredictable older brother, follows him to Hollywood with big dreams of his own, Johnny's world spins out of control even more. In an effort to regain a bit of balance, Johnny and his partners form a record company which in turn brings on some unwelcome surprises, including the Mob.

From Indiana to New York and then Hollywood, Johnny's life is never short on adventure, laughs, heartbreak-or the struggle it takes to never give up.

Writing is essential to learning. One cannot be educated and yet unable to communicate one's ideas in written form. But, learning to write can occur only through a process of cultivation requiring intellectual discipline. As with any set of complex skills, there are fundamentals of writing that must be internalized and then applied using one's thinking. This guide focuses on the most important of those fundamentals.

The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our thinking. The quality of our thinking, in turn, is determined by the quality of our questions, for questions are the engine, the driving force behind thinking. Without questions, we have nothing to think about. Without essential questions, we often fail to focus our thinking on the significant and substantive. When we ask essential questions, we deal with what is necessary, relevant, and indispensable to a matter at hand. We recognize what is at the heart of the matter. Our thinking is grounded and disciplined. We are ready to learn. We are intellectually able to find our way about. To be successful in life, one needs to ask essential questions: essential questions when reading, writing, and speaking; when shopping, working, and parenting; when forming friendships, choosing life-partners, and interacting with the mass media and the Internet. Yet few people are masters of the art of asking essential questions. Most have never thought about why some questions are crucial and others peripheral. Essential questions are rarely studied in school. They are rarely modeled at home. Most people question according to their psychological associations. Their questions are haphazard and scattered. The ideas we provide are useful only to the extent that they are employed daily to ask essential questions. Practice in asking essential questions eventually leads to the habit of asking essential questions. But we can never practice asking essential questions if we have no conception of them. This mini-guide is a starting place for understanding concepts that, when applied, lead to essential questions. We introduce essential questions as indispensable intellectual tools. We focus on principles essential to formulating, analyzing, assessing, and settling primary questions. You will notice that our categories of question types are not exclusive. There is a great deal of overlap

The 4th-century writer, Eunomius of Cyzicus, is virtually the only Arian theologian whose dogmatic works have survived to any significant degree. As an important representative of Arianism, he has provided unique insight into the world of Arius's followers, recognizing their continuation of his work and their criticism of it. The most complete edition of Eunomius's works yet published, this unique work contains both the actual text of, and the means of access to, all of Eunomius's surviving works and fragments. With new translations by the editor, this definitive collection offers a readable text that casts new light on the meaning and significance of Arianism.

Natural Citizens: Ethical Formation as Biological Development presents a novel view, "naturalist humanism," that applies recent scientific work challenging dichotomous views of biological development. Rather than being a passive victim of its evolutionary fate, the developing organism is an active participant, partly constructing its own ecological niche from internal and external resources. The human developmental environment, our ecological niche, has a distinctive socio-cultural character. Richard Paul Hamilton proposes that we understand the development of moral character as an integral part of biological development with the virtues construed as refinements of mundane social intelligence. Drawing on work in 4E Cognition, Hamilton revisits the traditional idea of ethical understanding as quasi-perceptual but argues that this can only be made intelligible by taking a non-representationalist view of perception. The virtuous person has learned how to focus her attention on what enables her to live a fully human life, individually and communally. Given that not all societies are equally conducive to fully human lives, the concluding sections explore how contemporary capitalist society distorts our attention and what obstacles it places in the way of virtue. Natural Citizens highlights the unsustainable state of current social and economic relations and the urgent need for radical alternatives.
