Описание: "Absolutely delectable." --J. Kenner, New York Times Bestselling Author Can beautiful food photographer Catherine Kelly and billionaire gourmand William Lambourne finally find their deliciously ever after? Cat and William have returned to California, this time for a whirlwind wedding weekend. William's glorious Napa Valley estate is the perfect setting for the monumental event but as the guests start arriving--including ex-rockstar-turned-celebrity-chef Hutch Morrison, William's cousin Zoe Smith, and a few more surprises--the build-up to the big celebration isn't quite what the prefect pair was hoping for. Now that the greatest threat to her future is behind bars back in Chicago, Cat should be carefree and blissfully happy. And she is...mostly. But there's something going on with her handsome lover and he's not talking...or giving her the kind of attention she craves. For William, there is no question that Catherine is the love of his life and, now that he's hung up his tailored suits in favor of low-slung jeans and work boots, true contentment is finally within his reach. But there are things--big things--that neither of them are talking about. And if they don't open up, William and Catherine could lose everything. Delectable and undeniably sexy, The Icing on the Cake is the perfect finish to Cat and William's sweet love story.

Описание: A leading philosopher shows that if the pursuit of happiness is the question, Epicureanism is the answer Epicureanism has a reputation problem, bringing to mind gluttons with gout or an admonition to eat, drink, and be merry. In How to Be an Epicurean, philosopher Catherine Wilson shows that Epicureanism isn't an excuse for having a good time: it's a means to live a good life. Although modern conveniences and scientific progress have significantly improved our quality of life, many of the problems faced by ancient Greeks -- love, money, family, politics -- remain with us in new forms. To overcome these obstacles, the Epicureans adopted a philosophy that promoted reason, respect for the natural world, and reverence for our fellow humans. By applying this ancient wisdom to a range of modern problems, from self-care routines and romantic entanglements to issues of public policy and social justice, Wilson shows us how we can all fill our lives with purpose and pleasure.
Walter Pater's coming-of-age novel is presented whole in this edition, that readers may witness the change in Marius's philosophical and spiritual views.
Marius is a young man living in Rome in the 2nd century AD, a time when the classical traditions of philosophy were in their maturity. The educated man gravitates from one school of philosophy to another, and even enjoys a stint as secretary to the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, himself a stoic philosopher. As his mind encounters successive cerebral challenges and acquires evermore knowledge, Marius grows curious about the emergence of a new religion - Christianity.
The discovery of the Christian creed marks a new phase in Marius' search for sensation and insight, wherein he is amazed by the life and sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The tight-knit community of early Christians, whose beliefs are not permitted in the Roman Empire, makes a striking impression upon the young fellow.
In favorably reviewing this philosophical novel, critics noted the similarities between Marius's progress and that of the author's. When he first published this work, Walter Pater had already grown notorious for renouncing his Christianity. Upon losing his faith and with it any prospect of joining the priesthood, Pater instead embraced the scholarly circles of Oxford University.

Описание: The undeniable chemistry between food photographer Catherine Kelley and billionaire gourmand William Lambourne has become an unquenchable thirst... Catherine's career in Chicago is taking off and the handsome stormy-eyed stranger who recently rocked her world has become--dare she say it?--her boyfriend. Dating a billionaire who's a god in the bedroom and a virtuoso in the kitchen definitely has its perks. But it's the unguarded, tender moments with William that stir Cat's heart and reawaken her appetite for love. A weekend trip to William's vineyard so he can face a painful loss puts their new relationship to the test. Complex and layered, William is at once passionate and sweet, but also prickly and guarded. He's promised openness, but it becomes immediately clear that Cat's version of honesty and his are as different as chardonnay and pinot noir. It's hard to fault William for his secretive ways when Cat knows she's holding back, too. As the attraction between them gets even hotter, Catherine and William must share all of their secrets before their relationship can truly begin. And little does Cat know how dangerous confronting their pasts will be. Book 2 in the The Epicurean series.

Описание: Through a radical new reading of the 'Theological Political Treatise', Dimitris Vardoulakis argues that the major source of Spinoza’s materialism is the Epicurean tradition that re-emerges in modernity when manuscripts by Epicurus and Lucretius are rediscovered. This reconsideration of Spinoza's political project, set within a historical context, lays the ground for an alternative genealogy of materialism. Central to this new reading of Spinoza are the theory of practical judgment (understood as the calculation of utility) and its implications for a theory of democracy that is resolutely positioned against authority.
