In the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ ofLatter-day Saints (FLDS), girls can become valuable property asplural wives, but boys are expendable, even a liability. In thispowerful and heartbreaking account, former FLDS member Brent Jeffsreveals?0?2both the terror and the love he experienced growing upon his prophet’s compound—and the harsh exile existence that somany boys?0?2face once they have been expelled by the sect. Brent Jeffs is the nephew of Warren Jeffs, the imprisoned leaderof the FLDS. The son of a prominent family in the church, Brentcould have grown up to have multiple wives of his own andsignificant power in the 10,000-strong community.

How do our feelings for others shape our attitudes and conducttowards them? Is morality primarily a matter of rational choice, orinstinctual feeling? Joseph Duke Filonowicz takes the reader on anengaging, informative tour of some of the main issues inphilosophical ethics, explaining and defending the ideas of theearly-modern British sentimentalists. These philosophers -Shaftesbury, Hutcheson, Hume, and Smith - argued that it is ourfeelings, and not our 'reason', which ultimately determine how wejudge what is good or bad, right or wrong, and how we choose to acttowards our fellow human beings. Filonowicz draws on contemporarysociology and evolutionary biology as well as present-day moraltheory to examine and defend the sentimentalist view and tochallenge the rationalistic character of contemporary ethics. Hisbook will appeal to readers interested in both history ofphilosophy and current ethical debates.
The true, bewildering story of a young woman’sdisappearance, the nightmare of a small town obsessed withdelivering justice, and the bizarre dream of a poor, uneducated manaccused of murder—a case that chillingly parallels the one,occurring in the very same town, chronicled by John Grisham in The Innocent Man. On April 28, 1984, Denice Haraway disappeared from her job at aconvenience store on the outskirts of Ada, Oklahoma, and the sleepytown erupted. Tales spread of rape, mutilation, and murder, and thepolice set out on a relentless mission to bring someone to justice.Six months later, two local men—Tommy Ward and Karl Fontenot—werearrested and brought to trial, even though they repudiated their“confessions,” no body had been found, no weapon had been produced,and no eyewitnesses had come forward. The Dreams of Ada is astory of politics and morality, of fear and obsession. It is also amoving, compelling portrait of one small town living through anightmare.
