The Sexual Life of the Child

Albert Moll

Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "The Sexual Life of the Child," Albert Moll, a pioneering psychoanalyst and one of the early proponents of child psychology, explores the intricacies of childhood sexuality, a topic often shrouded in taboo. Written in the early 20th century, the book adopts a clinical yet empathetic literary style, merging case studies with theoretical insights that challenge prevailing societal norms. Moll posits that an understanding of children's sexual development is crucial for the holistic approach to their psychological health, hence situating his work firmly within the burgeoning field of psychoanalysis and child psychology of the time, where the intersection of sexuality and childhood was keenly investigated yet poorly understood. Moll's deep interest in the psychological underpinnings of sexual behavior is evident throughout his career. As a student of Sigmund Freud and an impactful figure in early psychoanalytic circles, Moll was undoubtedly influenced by the debates surrounding sexuality and childhood. His professional journey, encompassing both medical science and psychotherapy, equipped him with a unique perspective that allowed him to dismantle misconceptions surrounding children's sexual experiences and articulate their importance in broader developmental contexts. This book is a significant resource for scholars, educators, and parents alike, offering illuminating insights into the often overlooked dimensions of early childhood development. It invites readers to reconsider deeply ingrained biases about childhood sexuality, ultimately fostering a more compassionate and informed dialogue on the subject. Readers seeking to understand the complexities of child psychology and the critical role of sexuality in development will find Moll's work both necessary and revealing.

The astonishing story of America’s airwaves, the two friends—one a media mogul, the other a famous inventor—who made them available to us, and the government which figured out how to put a price on air. 
This is the origin story of the airwaves—the foundational technology of the communications age—as told through the forty-year friendship of an entrepreneurial industrialist and a brilliant inventor. 
David Sarnoff, the head of RCA and equal parts Steve Jobs, Jack Welch, and William Randolph Hearst, was the greatest supporter of his friend Edwin Armstrong, developer of the first amplifier, the modern radio transmitter, and FM radio. Sarnoff was convinced that Armstrong’s inventions had the power to change the way societies communicated with each other forever. He would become a visionary captain of the media industry, even predicting the advent of the Internet. 
In the mid-1930s, however, when Armstrong suspected Sarnoff of orchestrating a cadre of government officials to seize control of the FM airwaves, he committed suicide. Sarnoff had a very different view of who his friend’s enemies were. 
Many corrupt politicians and corporations saw in Armstrong’s inventions the opportunity to commodify our most ubiquitous natural resource—the air. This early alliance between high tech and business set the precedent for countless legal and industrial battles over broadband and licensing bandwidth, many of which continue to influence policy and debate today.

The Mongol Empire - Conquerors...

Harris Ropes

The origins of the Mongols trace back to the vast, windswept steppes of Central Asia, a region defined by its harsh climate, open plains, and nomadic peoples. Life on these steppes was shaped by mobility, resilience, and a deep connection to the land. Mongol tribes lived in felt tents called gers, moving with the seasons to find fresh pastures for their livestock. This nomadic lifestyle fostered independence and adaptability, qualities that would later become crucial to their military and political success.
Before unification, the Mongol people were fragmented into numerous clans and tribes, each led by its own chieftain. These tribes were frequently engaged in rivalries, blood feuds, and shifting alliances. Despite their divisions, they shared a common language, spiritual beliefs rooted in shamanism, and customs that emphasized loyalty to kin and tribe. Power dynamics among these tribes were in constant flux, with temporary coalitions formed for mutual defense or economic advantage. The steppes were a place of both danger and opportunity, where leadership was earned through skill, strength, and the ability to maintain support among warrior bands.
The early history of the Mongols was shaped by interactions with neighboring peoples such as the Tatars, Merkits, and Naimans. These interactions often involved skirmishes, trade, and intermarriage, helping to shape the evolving identity of the Mongol people. External threats and invasions, including incursions by the powerful Jin and Western Xia dynasties of China, exposed the Mongol tribes to more advanced warfare and political systems, which they would later adapt and use to their advantage.

In this compendium of forgotten cities, Philip Matyszak explores the trials, tribulations, and triumphs these cities faced.
