Sophie 1.02 free download

 
The introduction to the latest Sophie e-book, H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds," will provide its readers with a very interesting perspective on this summer's blockbuster adaptation of this classic that is directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise. Although H.G. Wells' masterpiece was written more than one hundred years ago to condemn (among other things) British imperialism, it is surprisingly relevant to this new century in which America's leaders believe that they reign supreme. All the Sophie e-books come with provocative introductions. Two of the e-books, "JFK Witness" and Thoreau's "Walden," also come with their own guided tours. The "Walden" tour is perfect for anyone who wants to take a quick stroll around Walden Pond, or who happens to have a paper on "Walden" due the next morning. The tours were created with the Sophie notebook tool. This tool allows users to create and share with others their own indexed and commented "readings" of important texts. "JFK Witness" offers a guided tour to unedited testimony from all the key Warren Commission witnesses to the assassination of President Kennedy, plus over 100 photographs of exhibits presented in those hearings. Sophie's search feature is especially useful to readers of "JFK Witness." It lists the chapter and the phrase in which a search string occurs. The rest of the e-books included in the download are: Joseph Conrad's "The Heart of Darkness," two books by G.K. Chesterton "The Man who was Thursday," and "The Innocence of Father Brown," Thomas a Kempis' "Imitatio Christi," "Pencil and Poison - Selected Prose of Oscar Wilde" and Robert Louis Stevenson's "Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde."

What's new in this version:
Although the e-book reader engine is the same as the one that comes with the latest edition of the "If Monks Had Macs" CD-ROM this version fixes a bug in the e-books themselves.
