Mark Twain, considered America’s greatestwriter, was far more than a humorist. After the Civil War, heserved as America’s conscience on ethnic and racial issues. Twaindefended Jews, African-Americans and Indians against prejudice.Twain seems to have had a change of heart about Jews around thetime of the Civil War. He confided to his daughter Suzy that "theJews seemed to him a race to be much respected . . . they hadsuffered much, and had been greatly persecuted.An American Jewish lawyer asked Twain "why, in your judgment,the Jews have been, and are even now, in these days of supposedintelligence, the butt of baseless, vicious animosities?" Thelawyer asked, "Can American Jews do anything to correct either inAmerica or abroad? Will it ever come to an end?In response, Twain penned "Concerning the Jews," which Harper’salso published. Twain expected the article to please almost no one.His prediction was correct.This book is a collection of his famous stories such as;01: Concerning the Jews02: Travelling With A Refomer03: Luck04: My Boyhood Dreams05: To the Above Old People06: In Memoriam–Olivia Susan Clemens

Civil Disobedience is an essay by Henry DavidThoreau. Published in 1849 under the title Resistance to CivilGovernment, it expressed Thoreau’s belief that people should notallow governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, andthat people have a duty both to avoid doing injustice directly andto avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government tomake them the agents of injustice.Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery andthe Mexican-American War.Indian independence leader Mohandas Gandhi (a.k.a. MahatmaGandhi) was impressed by Thoreau's arguments. He laterconcluded:Thoreau was a great writer, philosopher, poet, and withal a mostpractical man, that is, he taught nothing he was not prepared topractice in himself. He was one of the greatest and most moral menAmerica has produced. At the time of the abolition of slaverymovement, he wrote his famous essay "On the Duty of CivilDisobedience". He went to gaol for the sake of his principles andsuffering humanity. His essay has, therefore, been sanctified bysuffering. Moreover, it is written for all time.

What could be better than an introduction tothe theory of relativity by Albert Einstein himself?Relativity: The Special and General Theory is Einstein'soriginal text, written for the layperson over a century ago.Special and General relativity explain the structure ofspace-time and provide a theory of gravitation.Einstein’s theories shocked the world with theircounterintuitive results, including the dissolution of absolutetime.In this book he brings a simplified form of his profoundunderstanding of the subject to the layperson.In the words of Einstein: “The present book is intended, as faras possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativityto those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophicalpoint of view, are interested in the theory, but who are notconversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoreticalphysics.”The book is challenging at times but, when approached patiently,proves itself one of the most lucid explanations of Relativity tobe found anywhere.Einstein shattered common-sense notions of space and time withthe publication of his special theory of relativity in 1905.In the general theory of relativity, published in 1916, heextended the special theory to include gravity, supplantingNewton's law of universal gravitation, the zenith of the ScientificRevolution.In this book, Einstein took his revolutionary theory directly tothe people. In simple terms, he carefully laid out the basicconcepts of relativity.But over one hundred years have passed since Einstein pennedthis classic; many advances have been made in our understanding ofrelativity and space and time.100 years after Einstein published his first papers onrelativity, this classic account by the man himself is now readyfor easy listening of twenty-first century readers."All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life,lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leadingthe individual toward freedom." –Albert Einstein

There are consequences,always.Persuasion is the most highly esteemed novel of Austen.

Beautiful, clever, and rich Emma Woodhouse isconvinced she is good at matchmaking after her older sister and hergoverness both marry suitable husbands.No matter that as Mr Knightley drily observes, in reality, shehad nothing to do with these relationships. Yet Emma, certain ofher talents, plays a dangerous game as she persuades her newfriend, the young, pretty and socially inferior Harriet to rejectan advantageous marriage proposal to a local farmer in favour ofdashing Mr Elton. So begins a story which challenges Emma'snaivety, her social preconceptions and her relationship withKnightley.In Emma, Austen's prose brilliantly elevates, in the words ofVirginia Woolf, the trivialities of day-to-day existence, ofparties, picnics, and country dances of early-nineteenth-centurylife in the English countryside to an unrivaled level of pleasurefor the reader. At the center of this world is the inimitable EmmaWoodhouse, a self-proclaimed matchmaker who, by the novel'sconclusion, just may find herself the victim of her own bestintentions.Jane Austen wrote some of the most remarkable romantic novels inEnglish, and Emma is said to be written at the height of herpowers. Like all her novels (Pride and Prejudice and Sense andSensibility), the narrative is simple, straightforward and thestory develops through seemingly commonplace conversations andevents.The cast, the locations, the conversations are set in distinctAusten style, rooted in rural English counties. The romances areVictorian, and progress through delicate, slow developments that adiehard romantic is bound to like.

But he builds his political career onethical principles.Sooner or later someone will come into the picture to blackmailhim into supporting an unacceptable scheme, by producing a documentthat could ruin his career if revealed. His past mistake may comeback heavily onto him.But he resists and sticks to his moral reputation. He prefersdoing what is right to yielding to some menace. He may lose thoughhis political ambition and career and his wife's love.But love is saved by forgiveness and the man's career is alsosaved by the work of a real friend who recaptures the dubiousdocument and destroys it.In other words love and an ethical career are saved by theburrying of the old mistake into oblivion. In other words love andfriendship are stronger than the scheming action of ablackmailer.Wit, intellectual, aesthete and raconteur, Oscar Wilde was bornin Dublin in 1854. His writing - including children's stories,poetry, philosophical essays, a novel and several hugely popularplays - made him the greatest celebrity of his day, and he remainsone of the world's most frequently-quoted and well-lovedwriters.

“Bartleby the Scrivener: A Story ofWallStreet” is a short story by Herman Melville. The storyfirstappeared, anonymously, in Putnam’s Magazine in two parts. Thefirstpart appeared in November 1853, with the conclusion publishedinDecember 1853.Various philosophical influences can be found in "BartlebytheScrivener".There are various analogues between Bartleby and lepersofancient times.Though no great success at the time of publication, "BartlebytheScrivener" is now among the most noted of Americanshortstories.The story has been adapted for film three times: in1970,starring Paul Scofield; in France, in 1976, by MauriceRonet,starring Michel Lonsdale; and in 2001, Bartleby starringCrispinGlover.Bartleby is a kind of clerk, a copyist, "who obstinately refusestogo on doing the sort of writing demanded of him." During thespringof 1851, Melville felt similarly about his work on Moby Dick.Thus,Bartleby can be seen to represent Melville’s frustration withhisown situation as a writer, and the story itself is “about awriterthat forsakes conventional modes because of anirresistiblepreoccupation with the most baffling philosophicalquestions.”

Wells introduces an early exampleof theDying Earth subgenre as well.The story was first published in serial form in the NewReviewthrough 1894 and 1895.

Miniature war-gaming got its start withthepublication in 1913 of this thoroughly entertaining littleaccountof how H.G. Wells, with his friends, took their childhoodtoys andturned play into acceptable middle-aged sport by subjectingtheexercise to the civilizing influence of actual rules.While war-gaming progressed far past these beginnings,Wellsobserves how “little wars” with even his elementary rulescansuggest the wholesale crudity of the real thing.“You have only to play at Little Wars three or four timestorealize just what a blundering thing Great War must be.Great War is at present, I am convinced, not only themostexpensive game in the universe, but it is a game out ofallproportion.Not only are the masses of men and material and sufferingandinconvenience too monstrously big for reason, but–theavailableheads we have for it, are too small.That, I think, is the most pacific realization conceivable,andLittle War brings you to it as nothing else but Great Warcando.”Wells leaves almost hanging the tantalizing concept that wemightsomeday simulate war, as an instrument ofinternationaldecision-making, rather than practice actualcombat.But most of this book is just the fun of evicting the boysfromthe playroom and spending happy days there, away fromthe“skirt-swishers”, developing the framework under whichtwogentlemen might meet and accumulate boastable victories!
