Böcker av Michael Lloyd

Michael Lloyd's 3rd collection of poetry.These are the thoughts of the man who overthinks situations entirely too much.

Stereochemistry is an important concept that often causes confusion amongst students when they learn it for the first time. In this book we deal with tricky concepts like conformation and configuration, how to represent them accurately and how to use the correct terms to describe them in both organic and inorganic chemistry.

Theology made accessible with wit and humour, from Dr Michael Lloyd, Principal of Wycliffe Hall in Oxford.

In this book, Michael Lloyd sets out a comprehensive analysis and counter-narrative to the neo-liberal market capitalist orthodoxy. He uses Friedrich Hayek, Margaret Thatcher's favourite adviser, as a 'stalking horse'. The aim is to argue against not only neo-liberalism, but also its philosophical and political antecedents deriving from John Locke and from Adam Smith, but reflected in Hayek and other neo-liberal advocates to the present day. A new social enlightenment is required, one which sweeps away the foundations of the liberal individualist enlightenment which persist today in the form of neo-liberal, market economics and its philosophical underpinning. In so doing it will also attack the false prospectus of Trump, Le Pen, Farage, and other populist nationalists. However, it will also challenge some of the shibboleths of the Left such as its naive anti-elitism, and its current preoccupation with identity politics rather than class politics.

The author discusses whether Orestes' vengeance on his mother for her murder of his father is a just and final act of violence in 'Electra', or whether Sophocles ironically implies that it is more problematic than it seems. He pays particular attention to Electra herself, but also discusses wider issues of Greek ethics.
