The purpose of this Descartes Dictionary is to bring together as many as possible of the technical and special terms in Descartes’ writings with their definitions in Descartes’ own words. There are also implicit characterizations of the meanings of many words, and a handful of entries were included simply for their own sake—because Descartes had something interesting to say about his life and world. All of the entries, or almost all of them, have been newly translated for this volume. There are many reasons for preparing new translations: the language in the older translations is archaic and often inaccurate; many of Descartes’ most important works have never been translated into English; and modern translations vary in quality and style. What is most important, though, is that the old translations simply failed to pay attention to the technical language that Descartes used, and so blurred some of the most important distinctions that he made.

Twenty years ago the lives of the Power family were taken: a mother, two daughters and their grandmother. But was an innocent man wrongfully convicted of this horrific crime?

Follow Jason Andrews, Number 12, the Occupant Information Recorder. His job is simple: He keeps tabs on everyone else and makes sure they're doing their jobs. With a request, he is also put in charge of controlling the emotions of everyone. Stuck in a Fallout Shelter with no one but his brother and 68 other people, he must learn to follow orders from the demanding HOPE program. In this test of morals, trust, and survival, does Jason have what it takes to live on? Or will he fail, and simply become another number to fall?

As a member of the Oxford Movement, Morris had a natural fascination with Eastern Christianity. Using his linguistic skills to translate select works of St. Ephrem into English, he chose those that would create an impact on his fellow Englishmen in the nineteenth century.
