Book Description
Leo Tolstoy became very interested in love and relationships. He saw the world around him, much like it is now, as the world is, filled with emptiness (if you pardon the ironic phrase). And yet he felt within him a draw and yearning, and, yes, an inner knowledge that there is more, and that there are answers to our questions. "Let us be diligent," that inner light says, as if together within ourselves, we have all we need, or ever would need to find the way forward. This is a paraphrase in my own words of the attitude of these later works by Leo Tolstoy, the great Russian novelist -- and great thinker -- regardless of region. The volume includes two works, the first 100,000 words of which is the treatise, What Shall We Do, perhaps a more accessible work to be acquainted with Tolstoy's soul-searching and concerns of systematic contemporary life. The second work is a shorter yet worthy essay, providing insights as the title suggests. This edition has been lovingly and carefully edited by Alan Lewis Silva.

Book Description
What Shall We Do Now? by Dorothy Canfield Fisher is an interesting collection of games for adults and children. Fisher's games are interesting in that they instill a sense of know-how in young children as preparation for the broader world. Excerpt: "In the following pages, which have something to say concerning most of the situations in which children find themselves, at home or in the country, out of doors or in, alone or in the company, a variety of answers will be found. No subject can be said to be exhausted, but the book is perhaps large enough. Everything which it contains has been indexed so clearly that a reader ought to be able to find what he wants in a moment."

Book Description
Francis Schaeffer's Classic Analysis of the Rise and Decline of Western Thought and Culture Civilizations throughout history have built societies around their own limited value systems including rulers, finite gods, or relativism—only to fail. The absence of a Christian foundation eventually leads to breakdown, and those signs are visible in present-day culture as well. Can modern society avoid the same fate? In this latest edition of How Should We Then Live?, theologian Francis A. Schaeffer traces the decline of Western culture from the fall of Rome, through the Middle Ages and the Enlightenment, and up to the twentieth century. Studying humanism's impact on philosophy, science, and religion, he shows how this worldview historically results in apathy, chaos, and decline. Schaeffer's important work calls on readers to live instead by Christian ethics, placing their trust in the infinite personal God of the Bible. Originally written in 1976, How Should We Then Live? remains remarkably applicable today. A Theology Classic: Written by renowned Christian philosopher Francis A. Schaeffer For Those Interested in Philosophy and History: Engages with the ideas of Plato, John Locke, Thomas Jefferson, and Voltaire, and examines the art, architecture, and ideas that shaped modern society Explores the Importance of a Christian Worldview: A practical assessment of the evolution of culture and the steadfast alternative offered by the biblical perspective
