This volume showcases the work of philosopher Louise Antony, and her influential contributions to feminist and analytic philosophy, epistemology, and the philosophy of mind. Her broadly interdisciplinary work brings a naturalistic perspective to philosophical issues of both theoretical and practical importance and center on a key theme--whether, and how, facts about human embodiment ought to constrain philosophical theories. Antony argues that feminist criticisms of analytic epistemology have brought to light some serious limitations of mainstream approaches to the theory of knowledge, and that a naturalistic approach to epistemology is called for. In Part One of this volume, she considers the relationship between feminism and analytic philosophy of mind and language, with special attention to "speech act" theories of pornography. In Part Two, she defends naturalized epistemology both as a correct approach to the study of human knowledge, and as a useful tool for progressive activists in the struggle for social justice. And in Part Three, she confronts nature-nurture debates, particularly as these erupt in debates about gender and racial equality. Throughout the volume, she makes the case for a philosophical method informed by empirical science. Collecting these articles alongside a new introduction reveal the underlying unity and impressive power of Antony's work over several decades. Groundbreaking at the time of their publication, and more relevant today, this collection will be of interest to a wide range of philosophical readers.

News flash: Your body already knows how to detox; you just need to turn on the right cues to make it happen. Here's how, with a 14-day plan that will change your life forever. Time to detox and cleanse? Don't go with a fad diet that makes promises you can't keep (all juice, all the time—sound familiar?). Instead, turn to Samantha Heller for a program that really works. Cleanses, detoxes, and other purifying practices have been around for hundreds of years, from fasting to juicing and everything in between. Not all of them are tried-and-true, and most aren't scientifically sound. But finally, here it is: the only cleanse you'll ever need. The Only Cleanse is uniquely designed to fully integrate, elevate, and reestablish the body's biochemical balance. Heller uses a five-pronged approach that covers diet, stress, emotions, exercise, and sleep. She also reviews existing detox plans and explains the pros and cons, further emphasizing why her plan is the only one you need.

Table of Contents Introduction Starting Your Own Nursery – Red Roses Planting Your Roses Food for your roses – Pruning Added Ingredients in what you buy… Making Traditional Rosewater – the Easy Way Infused Essential Oil Starting the Infusion Process Quick Kitchen Method: Infused oil rose creams and ointments Healthy Traditional Rose Jam Rose Petals to cure Stomach Ulcers Traditional Cooling Rose Sherbet Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction In our book series publications, you are going to get informational books about how you can manage your finances, start up your small businesses, and even earn from home along with other useful necessary business and financial management tips. These books are not restricted to millennials only, because I passed the age limit of millennials – 35, more than a decade ago, and you can call me belonging to generation Y. Nevertheless, these books are based upon my experiences and the experiences of my colleagues, friends, relatives, acquaintances and Legion of cohorts. Some of them are millennials, belonging to the generation Z, age group 18 to 35, some are of generation Y, 36 to 60, and some belong to Generation X above 60. They can also find plenty of practical information in these books, and say, “yes, she is right, the financial situation and economic conditions through which we have passed and, of which generation Z does not know anything about, has been a global phenomenon, and we went through it can empathize and understand.” And that is why I decided that at least a couple of my books were going to be based on one single natural product, on which you could build your own small business, without lots of initial investment. The place in which you would make your products based on this ingredient would be either your kitchen or in a nice small corner in your basement, which is well aired, well ventilated and well lighted. Who knows that like Estée Lauder and like grandma Brown, this would be the location for a multibillion-dollar industry 20 years down the line, and you would be known all over the world as the Rose Queen or the Rose King – no doubt that dread appellation would have been bestowed upon you by the cynical press just waiting out there to pounce upon successful people. So today, we are concentrating on one product, roses, of which, we are going to be using the plants, rose petals, their leaves, their hips to make a large number of products. These products have been in use it, throughout the centuries all over the world, so I had to do a little bit of research to get the original recipes for herbal healing jam made in Persia, since ancient times, and then spread all over the world. Rosewater - Made at home Along with this, you are going to learn about healthy lotions and potions, which are going to use Rose items as a base and other natural ingredients as carrier oils. Also, red roses – this book is going to use just one plant, red roses not being not white, because these are not power enough, nor do they have the healing qualities which one expects from a fresh rose or dried rose petals. Remember these books are to help you start up your small businesses, without investing thousands of dollars in seed funding and starting up your business initially. You just need to have that product, right at hand, and a ready supply of red rose

Estimates of the natural interest rate are often useful in the analysis of monetary and other macroeconomic policies. The topic gathered much attention following the great financial crisis and the Euro Area debt crisis due to the uncertainty regarding the timing of monetary policy normalization and the future path of interest rates. Using a sample of European countries (including several members of the Euro Area), this paper provides estimates of country-specific natural interest rates and some of their drivers between 2000 and 2019. In line with the literature, our findings suggest that natural interest rates declined during this period, and despite a rebound in the last few years of it, they have not recovered to their pre-crisis levels. The paper also discusses the implications of the decline in natural interest rates for monetary conditions and debt sustainability.

Baseball’s Natural: The Story of Eddie Waitkus is John Theodore’s true account of the slick-fielding first baseman who played for the Cubs and Phillies in the 1940s and became an immortalized figure in baseball lore as the inspiration for Roy Hobbs in Bernard Malamud’s The Natural. The son of Lithuanian immigrants, Edward Stephen Waitkus (1919–1972) grew up in Boston and served in the Pacific during World War II. His army service in some of the war’s bloodiest combat earned him four Bronze Stars. Following the war, Waitkus became one of the most popular players of his era. As a rookie he led the Cubs in hitting in 1946 and quickly established himself as one of the best first basemen in the National League. To the disappointment of fans, the Cubs traded Waitkus to the Phillies in December of 1948. When he returned to Chicago in a Philadelphia uniform in June of the following year, he was hitting .306 and seemed destined for the All Star team. On the night of June 14 at the Edgewater Beach Hotel, Waitkus’s bright career took an infamously tragic turn. He received a cryptic note summoning him to meet a young fan, Ruth Steinhagen. When Waitkus entered her hotel room, she proclaimed, “I have a surprise for you,” and then she just as quickly shot him in the chest. Steinhagen, then only nineteen, was one of the many young women—called “Baseball Annies”–who were fanatic about the game and its players, though her obsession proved more dangerous than most. A criminal court indicted Steinhagen and confined her to a state mental hospital for nearly three years. Waitkus survived the shooting, made an inspirational return to baseball in 1950, and led the Phillies to the World Series. While Waitkus triumphed over his assault, he could not conquer his private demons. Depression stemming from the attack led to a severe problem with alcohol, a failed marriage, and a nervous breakdown. Waitkus found some happiness in his final summers working with youngsters at the Ted Williams baseball camp. Cancer claimed him in 1972, just days after his fifty-third birthday. Through interviews with Waitkus’s family, fellow servicemen, former ballplayers, and childhood friends, and aided by fifteen photographs, Theodore chronicles Waitkus’s remarkable comeback as well as the difficult years following his eleven-year major league career.
