George W. Carey

This reprinted work on political theory challenges core tenets of our political views deriving from the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. It argues that we need to look to the key documents of the founding era - the Mayflower Compact and the Virginia Bill of Rights.

"Throughout this scrupulously researched interpretation of The Federalist papers, Carey provides a glimpse of our Republic's original design. He shows us what kind of federal union The Federalist's authors had in mind, and indicates how we have strayed from their intent." -- Paul Gottfried, National Review "The best book yet published on The Federalist." -- Paul Peterson, The Review of Politics "Serious scholars of American politics will find it stimulating and useful in deepening their own understanding of the American regime." -- Charles E. Umbanhowar, Perspectives on Political Science "Likely to become a classic in its own right. The Federalist is excellent: well organized, carefully considered, incisive, lucid, concise, and masterful." -- Ellis Sandoz, author of A Government of Laws: Political Theory, Religion, and the American Founding

A series of essays which critically examine the concept of the open society as 'the crowning achievement of Western civilization.' Analyzes the open society theory from a variety of perspectives but some go well beyond the question of adequacy to answer the critics and foes of liberal democracy. These essays do not simply extol the virtues of the open society, but each points to serious concerns or shortcomings in the open society doctrine. The contributors warn that liberal democracies need firmer moral and intellectual foundations than the open society is capable of providing. Co-published with the Intercollegiate Studies Institute.

This classic manual explains the connections between astrology, alchemy and the appearance of salts in the body's cells. George Carey and Inez Eudora Perry offer illuminating insights into the history and milestones of astrology in the context of cellular chemistry. Thousands of years ago, the writings of Ancient Greek scholars such as Hippocrates marked the early appearance of astrology in the context of examining the body's composition. The use of this knowledge advanced over centuries, with examples of this evolution in understanding given through the book's chapters. This book consists of two volumes, which are united in this edition. The first volume consists of short summarizing examinations of the various zodiac signs, explaining their significance. The second volume embarks on detailing the links between the astrological signs and the chemical compositions of the bodily salts. A series of analytical discussions of these syntheses is given, that the reader may fully comprehend their intricacy and depth.

In 1894 George W. Carey published this lengthy thesis, in which he describes his biochemic system and the use of various chemicals to alleviate certain conditions. The components of Carey's research involve a variety of ideas combined with existing knowledge. Traditional remedies, anatomical and physiological descriptions, symptoms of medical ailments, and the concept of the human body as a single chemical formula unite to form the author's theory of treatment. Carey subscribed to the idea that diseases were comprised of mineral imbalances, and could thus be managed with the use of various chemicals. A series of common ailments are examined in this manner. Today, George W. Carey's work is mostly read by those with an interest in homeopathic, New Age or occultist spiritual and wellness concepts. Conventional medicine and the scientific community have long rejected the claims put forward in this and other books by Carey, pointing to contrasting data accumulated through many studies conducted over decades through use of the scientific method. Nevertheless, the notion of a biochemic explanation for medical issues attracted a following which remains to this day.
