Uncommon edition of Sherlock's popular treatise on the nature of Death - 'The Practical Discourse argued that, as human beings were naturally motivated towards pleasure, the superiority of the Christian life could be proved in these terms. The spiritual existence of the human soul was infinitely longer than that of the body, and the pains and pleasures of the soul were correspondingly larger than those which could be experienced by the flesh. Consequently the expectation of pleasure could act as an incentive towards a religious existence on earth' [ODNB]. William Sherlock 1639 - 1707 ]. 375 grams.

Versandbedingungen

Shipping rates to most European countries & the USA are now based upon the weight of the book, so ( all things being equal ) the price for shipping is the true cost of sending your book. So, a small paperback will be far cheaper than a large tome - CHEERS ABE FOR THIS. All items are packed individually and to a very high standard, using only easily recyclable materials. We DO NOT just stick the book in a polythene mailer with a prayer.
