 | The Sun in the Church by J. L. Heilbron This scholarly work examines a lesser-known facet of the controversy between the Roman Catholic Church and anti-Ptolemaic scientists including Galileo, suggesting that the church actually advanced astronomical study during this period. By illuminating the reasons behind the church's decision to build observatories in their cathedrals from 1650 to 1750, this book reveals a highly politicized relationship between science and religion--one that differs greatly from popular belief.

 | The Prince by Angelo Codevilla, C. E. Detmold, Carnes Lord, Daniel Donno, David Wootton In his most famous work, THE PRINCE (Il Principe), Machiavelli described the ideal prince and encouraged the people of Italy to imagine what it might be like if such a person led a unified Italy. Written in 1513 and published posthumously in 1532, THE PRINCE has been interpreted both as a genuine handbook for potential rulers and as a satirical portrait of certain prevailing styles of leadership of the time. Instead of advocating a sense of moral obligation to one`s constituents, Machiavelli believed that it is far better for a leader to be feared than liked. He believed that the ends justify the means, and deceit, ruthlessness, and greed are acceptable in the interest of maintaining power. Though THE PRINCE may have influenced Hitler and Mussolini, the Machiavellian principles outlined in it have earned the work a place on many, if not most, lists of required reading for government and political science courses.
