  Behemoth - A History of the...

  A sweeping, global history of the rise of the factory and its effects on society 
  We live in a factory-made world: modern life is built on three centuries of advances in factory production, efficiency, and technology. But giant factories have also fueled our fears about the future since their beginnings, when William Blake called them “dark Satanic mills.” Many factories that operated over the last two centuries―such as Homestead, River Rouge, and Foxconn―were known for the labor exploitation and class warfare they engendered, not to mention the environmental devastation caused by factory production from the beginning of the Industrial Revolution up to today. 
  In a major work of scholarship that is also wonderfully accessible, celebrated historian Joshua B. Freeman tells the story of the factory and examines how it has reflected both our dreams and our nightmares of industrialization and social change. He whisks readers from the textile mills in England that powered the Industrial Revolution and the factory towns of New England to the colossal steel and car plants of twentieth-century America, Eastern Europe, and the Soviet Union and on to today’s behemoths making sneakers, toys, and cellphones in China and Vietnam. 
  The giant factory, Freeman shows, led a revolution that transformed human life and the environment. He traces arguments about factories and social progress through such critics and champions as Marx and Engels, Charles Dickens, Alexander Hamilton, Henry Ford, and Joseph Stalin. He chronicles protests against standard industry practices from unions and workers’ rights groups that led to shortened workdays, child labor laws, protection for organized labor, and much more. 
  In Behemoth, Freeman also explores how factories became objects of great wonder that both inspired and horrified artists and writers in their time. He examines representations of factories in the work of Charles Sheeler, Margaret Bourke-White, Charlie Chaplin, Diego Rivera, and Edward Burtynsky. 
  Behemoth tells the grand story of global industry from the Industrial Revolution to the present. It is a magisterial work on factories and the people whose labor made them run. And it offers a piercing perspective on how factories have shaped our societies and the challenges we face now.

  This second edition has been revised and expanded, offering updated material and further insight into this profoundly draining condition.   
  Although I am both a medically qualified and an academic doctor, I do not purport to write this book as a trained psychiatrist or psychologist, of which I am neither. I do, however, claim to be an experienced, consultant-level, medical professional who has, in the past, suffered from panic attacks related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which I developed many, many years ago now. Consequently, I am very familiar with the subject matter, have been in your shoes, and am able to view the problem from both ends of the spectrum.  The purpose of this book is to provide you, the reader, with an enhanced understanding of panic attacks and anxiety, their causes, and their main features. Additionally, it is designed to embed within you an attitude that enables you to reclaim the authority or self-control that panic and anxiety may have stripped away. Despite what you may be feeling now, always appreciate that it is neither our anxieties nor our panic that define who we really are.  
  In this book you will find an awesome weapon that will help you change the way you relate to anxiety and panic and ultimately dominate them. Having said that, the reader should keep in mind that the road to recovery may not be a straight or comfortable one. Ups and downs, twists, and turns will be part of the journey. However, rest assured that you will find your way to a life free of anxiety and panic when you achieve the attitude alteration and concept lock-in presented in this book. Know that when it comes to defeating anxiety and panic, Knowledge is Truly king

  Ripple: An Intimate Exchange of Urgency and Hope Between An Ecologist and His Daughter is a narrative of letters written by an ecologist dad to his daughter upon her coming-of-age. Drawing upon his personal history, family anecdotes, and shared memories, Powers envisions a path for humanity's reintegration with nature, and a chance to save the life force that runs through all of us. A story of separation has long gripped the human race: that people are separate—with more advanced habitats, technologies, and values—from our natural surroundings and fellow creatures. We have been told this story for generations. But as Powers watches his daughter approach adulthood, with all of society's expectations, he knows that the story we pass down has to change. In Ripple, he tells a different tale, one of community and family, inner wisdom, and shared existence within a living planet.
