Not really. He probably doesn't know how much I'm anal about articles/determiners (such as "the" )

A "fucking incredible" textbook? Neat.

What's it called?

You can just grab an audiobook

In any case, I don't believe absolute concepts (most concepts preceded by determiners, such as "the") can be subjective. They're, almost always, just empty linguistic accidents.

i cant remember! haha. just did a search on on amazon . its something like "political thought" or "political ideologies". it deals with rawls and the social contract, freedoms, and covers most of the main "isms" around the world today. had to read it for fourth year, and despite the complexity of the concepts, it was one of the easiest reads ive ever had.

all i do remember is that it has a red and black cover.

?

i found it!!

lira, how can I bring down my students ego just by a couple of notches, so that they don't think their superman and that they can handle any problem while flying?

I was thinking of doing an engine failure on them while their flying. and then of course, explain to them my reasoning and teach' them a lesson.
