Hardback. John Compton shows how evangelicals, not New Deal reformers, paved the way for the most important constitutional developments of the twentieth century. Their early-1800s crusade to destroy property that made immorality possible challenged founding-era legal protections of slavery, lotteries, and liquor sales and opened the door to progressivism.

Hardback. Ada Palmer explores how Renaissance poets and philologists, not scientists, rescued Lucretius and his atomism theory.

Hardback. Some commentators claim that Anselm's writings contain a second independent "modal ontological argument" for God's existence. A. D. Smith contends that although there is a second a priori argument in Anselm, it is not the modal argument. This "other argument" bears a striking resemblance to one that Duns Scotus would later employ. Num Pages: 260 pages, figures. BIC Classification: HPCB; HRAB. Category: (G) General (US: Trade).
