Download or read book The Old Men at the Zoo written by Angus Wilson. This book was released on 2015-07-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in a near future (the novel was first published in 1961 and is set in the period 1970-73), this is Angus Wilson's most allegorical novel, about a doomed attempt to set up a reserve for wild animals. Simon Carter, secretary of the London Zoo, has accepted responsibility and power to the prejudice of his gifts as a naturalist. But power is more than just the complicated game played by the old men at the zoo in the satirical first half of this novel: it lies very near to violence, and in the second half real life inexorably turns to fantasy - the fantasy of war. This tense and at times brutal story offers the healing relationship between man and the natural world as a solution for the power dilemma.

Book excerpt: This volume presents a comprehensive statement in defense of the doctrine known as classical, hedonistic, utilitarianism. It is presented as a viable alternative in the search for a moral theory and the claim is defended that we need such a theory. Torbjörn Tännsjö challenges the assumption that hedonistic utilitarianism is at variance with common sense morality particularly as viewed through the perspective of the modern feminist moral critique.

Book Synopsis Old Man by : David A. Poulsen

Download or read book Old Man written by David A. Poulsen. This book was released on 2013-01-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trip with his estranged father changes Nate forever. Commended for the Popular Paperback Young Adults Pick, 2014 and short-listed for the Forest of Reading - White Pine Award for Fiction, 2014 Just as summer vacation is about to arrive, Nate Huffman’s plans are unexpectedly shelved for the most unlikely of reasons: the reappearance of his estranged father. Not only is the old man back, he’s got this goofy idea about a road trip the two of them will take. Nate finds himself in a pickup with a man he can’t stand. His father wants to reconnect, and he wants Nate to really understand him. Larry Huffman has chosen to make this happen by taking his son into his own past, which has the Vietnam War as its centrepiece. As the two struggle their way through the jungle of the Ashau Valley, the old man relives the horror of the battle that changed him forever, and Nate undergoes changes of his own – and they experience something that goes far beyond what either of them expected.
