Inventing the Enemy: And Other Occasional Writings"Underscores the writer's profound erudition, lively wit, and passion for ideas of all shapes and sizes . . .

"Underscores the writer's profound erudition, lively wit, and passion for ideas of all shapes and sizes . . . Eco's pleasure in such explorations is obvious and contagious." -- BooklistInventing the Enemy covers a wide range of topics on which Eco has written and lectured over the past ten years: from a disquisition on the theme that runs through his recent novel The Prague Cemetery -- every country needs an enemy, and if it doesn't have one, must invent it -- to a discussion of ideas that have inspired his earlier novels (and in the process he takes us on an exploration of lost islands, mythical realms, and the medieval world); from indignant reviews of James Joyce's Ulysses by fascist journalists of the 1920s and 1930s, to an examination of Saint Thomas Aquinas's notions about the soul of an unborn child, to censorship and violence and WikiLeaks. These are essays full of passion, curiosity, and obsession by one of the world's most esteemed scholars and critically acclaimed, best-selling novelists. "True wit and wisdom coexist with fierce scholarship inside Umberto Eco, a writer who actually knows a thing or two about being truly human." -- Buffalo News "Thought provoking . . . nuanced . . . the collection amply shows off Eco's sophisticated, agile mind." -- Publishers Weekly

Good for the skin
Size: 7 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: 7 Ounce Tube, Size: 7 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: 7 Ounce Tube
I’ve been using Aquaphor Healing Ointment Advanced and it’s honestly been a lifesaver for my skin. I apply it on dry areas like my lips, hands, and even small dry patches, and it helps them feel soft and moisturized really fast.
I like that it has a thick texture, so it really locks in moisture and protects the skin. It’s especially good at night when my skin feels extra dry because I wake up with everything feeling way smoother.
It’s also very gentle, so I don’t get any irritation when I use it. Overall, it’s one of those products I always keep at home because it works so well for healing and keeping my skin hydrated.

Good product. Here's a tip for best results.
Size: 7 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: 7 Ounce Tube
This is a very thick product, almost Vaseline-like in consistency (it's main ingredient is petrolatum). If you apply it to dry skin, it's going to be very difficult to spread and not do you much good. Apply to damp skin after a bath or shower to facilitate application, hold the moisture from the water in your skin, and give you the best results.

Fast results
Style: MULTIBALM, Style: MULTIBALM
This moisturizing stick is incredible. This is by far the best beauty product I have tried. I had a noticeable difference in my skins appearance in just a couple days. Week 2 my skin is brighter, clearer, softer, bouncier, and just looks overall more healthy. I have tried numerous products for day and night time. I have been using the multi balm stick twice a day and am so impressed. I wait a few minutes to apply make up as it needs a bit to soak in but I was happy it does work well under your make up. Also has a light sweet fragrance with no irritation.

Convenient Hydrating Balm for Quick Touch-Ups
Style: MULTIBALM
Really enjoying this balm stick so far. It’s super convenient to toss in a bag and easy to apply throughout the day whenever my skin feels dry or needs a little glow. It glides on smoothly and gives a hydrated, dewy look without feeling heavy.
I especially like using it on dry areas and around fine lines for a quick refresh. The packaging feels nice quality too. Great skincare item for easy on-the-go use.
