The Reading Revolutions 
		project was based on a collection of over 40 rare and first editions 
		from the Remnant Trust focused on the writers who have had great impact 
		on our ideas of science, government, and social standards.&nbsp; First editions of Aristotle, Plato, Newton, Galileo, Luther, Emerson, de Tocqueville, Hobbes, Locke,
Hume, Wollstonecraft, Machiavelli, Montaigne, Euclid, John Adams, Adam Smith, Confucius, Vattel, Malthus, Henry Mackenzie, and Thomas Paine's Common Sense among others are included in the collection.&nbsp;  In connection with the Reading Revolutions project, a lecture series was arranged 
				at UMF.&nbsp; Lecture titles are linked to either a paper written by the author or a paper written based on their talk by a student or myself.&nbsp; 
		More photographs of the books and background information concerning the books or their authors are available 
		under the <a href="http://hua.umf.maine.edu/Reading_Revolutions/alphalist.html">Alphabetical List</a>.
