Philosopher, alchemist, and privateer, Kenelm Digby (1603-1665) cut a striking figure across Europe in the middle of the 17th century. Digby corresponded with Galileo, Descartes, Gassendi, Gilbert and Harvey, and was one of the founding members of the Royal Society. In 1644 he published his major philosophical work, Two Treatises: Of Bodies and of Man's Soul - the first comprehensive philosophical work in the English language. In the Two Treatises Digby discussed at length a vast array of philosophical ideas: elements, matter, mechanism, motion, force and causation, as well as sensation, perception, memory, imagination, intellect, reason, and immortality. MacDonald's edition is the first scholarly edition of this great work since it went out of print in 1669: it offers a normalized text, copious annotations, and a lengthy introduction which situates Digby's ideas in the currents of 17th century philosophical thought.

Digby's Discoveries: The Fruit of the Spirit by Tena K. Hunt __________________________________

A studio cop, an aspiring actress who uses what she’s got to get what she wants, a cross-dressing action star, a mysterious death – all are elements in this novella set in 1940s Hollywood... but the real subject of Digby’s Hollywood Story is story-telling itself, an examination of our need to make sense of the world by casting the chaos of life into the form of narrative.

Journey with Digby, a typical eight-year-old boy, as he looks for people showing love to others in everyday life as part of a school assignment. He discovers he has a lot to learn about what love is. Uncover the mystery of why Digby is concerned with the number 17, what car valves have to do with the heart, and why there are bubbles everywhere. Find out what a judge in a court has to do with love, why Digby is mad at his puppy, and how a muddy river turns up in the bathroom. Learn what rudeness has to do with love, why he's so upset as he comes across slimy slobber, and the truth behind why he's sad and what he decides to do about it. Discover how he learns that love is not necessarily just a mushy feeling. In addition to being kind, find out the different ways Digby says we can show love...if we choose to. Bible verses and a few questions related to God's love follow each short story. The questions are intended to serve as conversation starters and encourage discussion in the home, church, and school. It is the author's hope that children of all ages will learn about God's unconditional love and choose to love others in their daily everyday lives. All the characteristics of love have been there inside all along; they just needed to be discovered.

This dramatic sweep of military history in the words of history's military leaders serves to reinforce the concept that the pen is mightier than the sword. Congressman Steve Israel represents New York's second district and is a member of the House Appropriations Committee and former member of the Armed Services Committee.
