Robert Green Ingersoll, REAL Wellness Pioneer
by
Donald Ardell
Robert G. Ingersoll should need no introduction to any American but does for most. To suggest he was one of us - an early promoter of wellness long before the term was spoken is, of course, to flatter ourselves. We might as well claim Lincoln, Washington, Socrates or even imaginary characters like Prometheus, Zeus or the biblical Jesus. But, to do so is to embrace certain ideals and passions expressed by one judged noble, kind, good, wise and brave - and a champion of what REAL wellness promoters profess today. If we wish to associate our cause with luminous personages, Ingersoll would be and is my first choice, especially when the cause is genuine wellness, not merely the other kind. I think you will enjoy reading this barest outline of his life and work. Hopefully, you will want to look closer at Ingersoll's lectures and other aspects of his amazing life.

by

He sided with Edward I against John, he received a respite for all his debts owed to the English Exchequer. In 1296, Robert the Bruce and his father swore fealty to Edward I, but the following year Robert supported the Scottish revolt against Edward.

The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene
by
Angel Donovan
In The Art of Seduction, Robert Greene interprets the subject with references to outstanding charmers of all times including Don Juan, Cleopatra and Casanova, as well as great thinkers like Freud, Nietzsche or Einstein. The Art of Seduction affirms Robert Greene's loyalty to the principles of power propagating and his uncompromising stand in rejection of what is called "moral" today. The book was published in July 2003, and, perhaps, still remains the only material embracing overall history of allure techniques.
