    I started this read and am abandoning it before I have even completed the introduction. The typos are terrible. Don’t bother with this one.
  • Positive reflections

    His meditations give intimate descriptions of the common theories of life,-religious outlook- yet still offer usefulness for reflection and ultimately, application. (Moral philosophy)

    If you can bear the archaic language, you will enjoy this book. The best part is the appendix.
  • Victorian translation.

    Victorian translation. Accurate, but sounds a bit stilted to a modern ear.
