Nothing is exactly what it seems to be. A chair is much more than a chair; it is a complex assemblage of polymers made of molecules made of atoms. Each atom is made of a nucleus and electrons. The electrons gravitate around the nucleus in a complex way; they are in movement. There is so much space between the atoms that 90% of the neutrinos coming from the sun will pass right through the chair without hitting it. What are the electrons made of? Some scientists wonder if the smallest particles are solid. Then a painting is not what it seems. What if an original painting has a profound effect on its owners? What if it creates an invisible link between the buyer and the artist? In my paintings you will find serenity and happiness and possibly more. I hope they will bring comfort to my clients. In this book you will find some short stories and a description of my technique.

Returning to his hometown of Rijeka, Croatia, to wrap things up after his grandmother's passing, Paul gets more than he expected in terms of inheritance-way more than just a stuffy old apartment downtown. The legacy of his grandmother's work as a krsnik-a traditional magic user tasked with keeping the thin line between the humans and the things that prey on them-falls on his shoulders, threatening to change everything he thought he knew about life, the city he left behind so long ago, and himself. As the line keeps getting thinner, it'll soon be up to Paul, with help from some unexpected (and witchy) places, to prove worthy of his legacy while fighting for the city's humanity, and trying not to lose his own along the way.

Hume’s Moral Philosophy and Contemporary Psychology

Recent work at the intersection of moral philosophy and the philosophy of psychology has dealt mostly with Aristotelian virtue ethics. The dearth of scholarship that engages with Hume’s moral philosophy, however, is both noticeable and peculiar. Hume's Moral Philosophy and Contemporary Psychology demonstrates how Hume’s moral philosophy comports with recent work from the empirical sciences and moral psychology. It shows how contemporary work in virtue ethics has much stronger similarities to the metaphysically thin conception of human nature that Hume developed, rather than the metaphysically thick conception of human nature that Aristotle espoused. It also reveals how contemporary work in moral motivation and moral epistemology has strong affinities with themes in Hume’s sympathetic sentimentalism.
