A Private Eye in a One-Eyed Place?Ford Merrick is a softhearted detective in a sleepy southern town, Opelika, Alabama-a "one-eyed, blinking sort of place." A provoking visit from beautiful Rachel Gunner complicates his work and his life. This stunning woman asks Ford to tail her uncle and discover what he is up to. Taking the case, Ford quickly finds himself swamped in mysteries: Who is Rachel's uncle, and what is his secret business? Then there's the mystery of an earlier death at Noble Hall where Rachel and her uncle now live. But the greatest mystery may be Rachel Gunner herself. Mired, Ford struggles to find his way, unearths tragedies old and new, and exposes his heart to a hard test.

"... a philosophical mission of undoing the complexity of words." Ronald Hustwit, The College of Wooster

In "Foundations of Arithmetic", Gottlob Frege contended that the difference between concepts and objects was absolute. Benno Kerry disagreed; he contended that a concept could be an object, and that therefore the difference between concepts and objects was only relative. This book aims to understand the debate between Frege and Kerry.

Wittgenstein's complex work challenges much that is taken for granted in philosophical thinking as well as in the theorizing of art, theology, science and culture. This title includes essays that explore a key concept involved in Wittgenstein's thinking, relating it to his understanding of philosophy, and outlining the arguments.
