Trade Paperback. Condition: Like New. 405 pp. Clean, fresh copy with very light shelf wear, crisp pages and clean text. Synopsis: Gershom Carmichael was a teacher and writer who played an important role in the Scottish enlightenment of the eighteenth century. His philosophy focused on the natural rights of individuals the natura…l right to defend oneself, to own the property on which one has labored, and to services contracted for with others. Carmichael argued that slavery is incompatible with the rights of men and citizens, and he believed that subjects have the right to resist rulers who exceed the limits of their powers.Although he appealed to the authority of Grotius and Locke, the grounds on which he defended natural rights were distinctively his own. He drew upon the Reformed or Presbyterian theology to propose that, in respecting the natural rights of individuals, one shows one's reverence for God's creation. Inasmuch as all of mankind longs for lasting happiness, which can be found only in worship of or reverence for God, such reverence is the natural law which obliges all to respect the rights of all.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 425 pages. Published in 2011. The author's second novel to be translated into English. One of the greatest novels of our time. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be c…onfused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a softcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. The production values are impeccable: A lovely DJ design that utilizes an image from the film adaptation. Printed on pristine-white, archival stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Sandro Veronesi's "Caos Calmo" in a felicitous English translation. Widely regarded as his masterpiece. "Pietro Paladini saves a woman from drowning at the exact moment that his wife Lara suddenly dies. After the unexpected death, Pietro becomes enveloped in a strange calm, and he spends each day outside his daughter's school, observing the quiet rhythms of life. His bosses visit him to share cryptic information about a messy corporate merger. His co-workers, buckling under the strain of the merger, turn to him for advice and go a little crazy. Things get even messier when Pietro encounters the woman he rescued, Eleonora, a wealthy seductress, whose life has also been upended by that pivotal moment" (Publishers Weekly). The basis of the great film by Antonello Grimaldi (whose screenplay was written by Veronesi), with Alessandro Gassman, Antonella Attili, and Nanni Moretti. An absolute "must-have" title for Sandro Veronesi collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Sandro Veronesi. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great book. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Edition/First Printing (American) available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: There is NO hardcover edition. Published as a softcover original only. Copies available online have very serious flaws or are in multiple subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Premio Viareggio Repaci and the Premio Campiello for "La Forza del passato" in 2000. Winner of the Premio Strega, the most important literary prize in Italy, for "Caos Calmo" in 2008. One of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 0061572942. Signed by Author.
