❤️ON the ORIGIN of SPECIES by Charles Darwin Faux Leather Flexi-Bound NEW

ON the ORIGIN of SPECIES by Charles Darwin Brand New The publication of Charles Darwin’s The Origin of Species in 1859 marked a dramatic turning point in scientific thought, but it also ignited a firestorm of controversy. More than two decades following his intercontinental voyage aboard the HMS Beagle, the English naturalist carefully advanced his theory of evolution by natural selection, offering coherent and highly readable views of adaptation, survival of the fittest, and other concepts that form the foundation of modern evolutionary theory. The first edition of Darwin's original On the Origin of Species sold out on the day of publication, and as it continues to spark heated debate 150 years later, the work's impact is undeniable. Launching modern biology and informing virtually all contemporary literary, philosophical, and religious thinking, this is a book that changed the world. This special edition features an elegantly designed cover and a durable flexible binding. It is an indispensable addition to any home history library.Send this book as a gift!

THE ODYSSEY by Homer Soft Faux Leather Bound Brand New Gift

The Odyssey by Homer, Damian Stocking (Introduction), Samuel Butler (Translator) Product Details: ISBN: 9781435163102 Publisher: Barnes & Noble Publication date: 10/06/2016 Pages: 296 Type: Book - Soft Cover Product dimensions: 5.60(w) x 8.30(h) x 1.40(d) Product Condition: Brand New. Flexibound. Gift condition. Package Information: This book will be packaged in bubble mailer.Overview: Ten years have passed since the fall of Troy. The surviving Greek warriors who destroyed that city have returned home. All except Odysseus, whose wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus, await him. Claiming that Odysseus is dead, a host of suitors have taken up residence in his home, eating up his wealth and trying to persuade Penelope to marry one of them. Penelope steadfastly refuses. Odysseus, in fact, is alive. Having spent seven years as a captive of the nymph Calypso, the gods finally take pity on him and persuade her to set him free. When he resumes his journey home, the sea god Poseidon sends a great storm to destroy his raft. Exhausted and near death, Odysseus and his men wash up on an island shore. They are delayed by Polyphemus the Cyclops, the Lotus-eaters, the Sirens, the sorceress Circe, and other strange creatures. Set in a time that was ancient even when Homer composed it almost 2,800 years ago, The Odyssey reveals a universal order where gods intercede directly and sometimes capriciously in the destinies of men, where heroes are as deceitful as they are brave, and where a sea voyage becomes a test of human ingenuity and courage in the face of helplessness. The Odyssey is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an exquisitely designed foil-stamped binding, with distinctive colored edging and an attractive ribbon bookmark. Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for any home library.

❤THE WEALTH OF NATIONS by Adam Smith Faux Leather Flexi Bound Book NEW

*** The Wealth of Nations *** by Adam Smith Brand New, Flexibound Cover Edition with Ribbon Bookmark As Andrew Skinner reveals in his introduction to this edition, the real sophistication of The Wealth of Nations lies less in individual areas of economic analysis than in its overall picture of a vast analytical system--a capitalist economy--in which all the parts can be seen simultaneously interacting with each other. In addition, Smith's view of society was not merely an economic one. The Wealth of Nations is far from being an apologia for unregulated business enterprise: Smith was at pains to point out that economic advance can have undesirable social consequences, and that labour which is economically unproductive can be beneficial to society at large Buy with confidence from an established seller - we have over 20 years of eBay sales experience and more than 24,000 ratings!Shipped from a smoke-free, temperature controlled environment To see more great items and Value Packs at terrific prices, please visit our ebay store

THE WEALTH OF NATIONS Adam Smith Book I to V Faux Leather Flexi Bound Brand NEW

Publisher: Fall River PressPublication date: 04/25/2022Pages: 528Product dimensions: 5.40(w) x 8.30(h) x 1.90(d) Political economy had been studied long before Adam Smith. But Wealth of Nations (1776) established it for the first time as a separate science. Smith based his arguments on vast historical knowledge, and developed his principles with remarkable clarity. What set this work apart was its statement of the doctrine of natural liberty. Smith believed that "man's self-interest is God's providence" - that if government abstained from interfering with free competition, the invisible hand of capitalism would emerge from the competing claims of individual self-interest. Industrial problems would be resolved and maximum efficiency reached. After more than two centuries, Smith's work still stands as the best statement and defense of the fundamental principles of capitalism.
