Many of the critics who have critiqued Jonathan
Swifts Gulliver's Travels have used the word
extraneous more then once. Swift was viewed as an
insane person who was a failure in life. But this
is far from the truth. Swift wrote Gulliver's
Travels, a book that has been assigned to students
for years, and it is written from experience.
Swifts experience with the Tories and their
conflicts with the Whigs caused him to write books
that mock religious beliefs, government, or people
with views differi...

The moon, Tides Lunar Tides The moon, being much
nearer to the earth than the sun, is the principal
cause of tides. When the moon is directly over a
given point on the surface of the earth, it exerts
a powerful pull on the water, which therefore
rises above its normal level. Water covering the
portion of the earth farthest from the moon is
also subject to this pull, so that another
distinct dome of water is formed on the farther
side of the earth providing the basis for a second
wave. The lunar ...
