In the compelling book Doubt, a brilliant young writer and historian of ideas shows how the dialectic between faith and doubt, belief and radical questioning, religion on the one hand and philosophy and science on the other has been the driving force in intellectual and religious history.

Jennifer Hecht champions doubt and questioning as one of the great and noble, if unheralded, intellectual traditions. This is an account of the world's great intellectual virtuosos, who are also humanity's greatest doubters and disbelievers, and their attempts to reconcile the seeming randomness of the universe with the human need for meaning,

This remarkable book touches on a wealth of knowledge. Early Greek philosophy is represented, along with Eastern critical wisdom, Roman Stoicism, Jewish and Christian skeptics, medieval Islam, the rise of science, and the existantialists. Just as belief has its own history featuring people whose unique expressions of faith have forever changed the world, doubt has a vibrant story and tradition with its own saints, martyrs, and sages.

Jennifer Michael Hecht is the author of award-winning books of philosophy, history, and poetry. Hecht's The End of the Soul: Scientific Modernity, Atheism and Anthropology (Columbia University, 2003), won the Phi Beta Kappa Society's 2004 prestigious Ralph Waldo Emerson Award. Hecht's first poetry book, The Next Ancient World won the Poetry Society of America's 2002 Norma Farber First Book Award. Her most recent poetry book, Funny, won the University of Wisconsin's 2005 Felix Pollak Poetry Prize, and Publisher's Weekly called it "one of the most original and entertaining books of the year."--Christian Century

Really like these cotton rounds
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I do like these cotton rounds. They hold up and work well to remove make up and clean my skin in between actually washing my face. They are soft but strong and a good size for makeup removal. These are much nicer than the ones I bought previously that shed on my skin. They are somewhat thick and seem to have a decent cotton content.

Truly works and is affordable
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have tried so many "under eye" roller brands and this one has been the best bang for your buck, actually works and helps de-puff my tired eye bags instantly. If you're wanting an under the eye roller that works. This is it and for $15 bucks, it lasts for a good 3-4 months.

With cooling effect
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I recently tried this eye stick, and it’s honestly amazing. It feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives an instant refreshing effect under the eyes. It really helps with puffiness and makes my skin look smoother and more hydrated. I’m very happy with it, and I definitely recommend it!
