Apologie De Cartouche: Ou Le Scelerat Sans Reproche, Par La Grace Du Pere Quesnel (1731) est un livre �����crit par Louis Patouillet. Ce livre raconte l'histoire de Cartouche, un c�����l�����bre bandit fran�����ais du XVIIIe si�����cle. Patouillet d�����fend Cartouche en affirmant que ses crimes �����taient justifi�����s en raison des injustices sociales de l'�����poque. Il utilise �����galement les �����crits du p�����re Quesnel, un th�����ologien catholique, pour soutenir sa th�����se. Le livre est une apologie de Cartouche et une critique de la soci�����t����� fran�����aise de l'�����poque. Il est consid�����r����� comme un exemple de la litt�����rature apolog�����tique du XVIIIe si�����cle.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In 1790 the French people, by general acquiescence, embarked upon what they believed to be a harmless experiment in currency inflation. The results of this action are vividly described in Dr. Andrew D. White's book entitled Fiat Money Inflation in France - How It Came, What It Brought and How It Ended. Legislatures are as powerless to abrogate moral and economic laws as they are to abrogate physical laws. They cannot convert wrong into right nor divorce effect from cause, either by parliamentary majorities, or by unity of supporting public opinion. The penalties of such legislative folly will always be exacted by inexorable time. While these propositions may be regarded as mere commonplaces, and while they are acknowledged in a general way, they are in effect denied by many of the legislative experiments and the tendencies of public opinion of the present day. The story, therefore, of the colossal folly of France in the closing part of the eighteenth century and its terrible fruits, is full of instruction for all men who think upon the problems of our own time.

Andrew Dickson White, the first president of Cornell University, devoted much research to the historical conflict between science and religion. His work culminated in this two-volume history which argues that religion was historically opposed to scientific progress. Volume one discusses topics including creation, evolution, geography, ethnology and astronomy.

Documents the battle between science and religion in matters of creation versus evolution, the geocentric versus the heliocentric universe, and the "fall of man" versus anthropology. This work teaches us about the dangerous effects of religious doctrinalism on education and moral growth.
