Sinossi

"Kingdoms of Burma" delves into the captivating history of early Burmese kingdoms and their profound influence on Southeast Asia. It explores how small settlements evolved into influential powers, shaping the region's political and cultural development. The book reveals that these kingdoms actively participated in a network of political and cultural exchange, impacting Southeast Asia's identity, and emphasizes the importance of Burmese history in understanding modern Myanmar. The book chronologically examines key periods, from the Pyu city-states to the Bagan Empire, and the Ava, Taungoo, and Konbaung dynasties. It analyzes these kingdoms' social, economic, and religious underpinnings, relationships with neighbors, and lasting cultural legacies. For example, the rise of Theravada Buddhism during the Bagan Empire significantly impacted the region. By synthesizing scholarship and original research, the book provides a balanced account of Burma's pre-colonial history, emphasizing the agency of the Burmese people. The book progresses through the pre-Bagan era, the rise and fall of the Bagan Empire, the emergence of Ava and Taungoo, and the Konbaung dynasty's expansionist policies. By examining archaeological evidence, inscriptions, chronicles, and scholarly works, the book reconstructs the political, social, and economic dynamics of these kingdoms. This approach offers readers a comprehensive understanding of Burmese history and its place in the broader world.

The Fight for Privacy -...

Danielle Keats Citron

Privacy is disappearing. From our sex lives to our workout routines, the details of our lives once relegated to pen and paper have joined the slipstream of new technology. As a MacArthur fellow and distinguished professor of law at the University of Virginia, acclaimed civil rights advocate Danielle Citron has spent decades working with lawmakers and stakeholders across the globe to protect what she calls intimate privacy—encompassing our bodies, health, gender, and relationships. When intimate privacy becomes data, corporations know exactly when to flash that ad for a new drug or pregnancy test. Social and political forces know how to manipulate what you think and who you trust, leveraging sensitive secrets and deepfake videos to ruin or silence opponents. And as new technologies invite new violations, people have power over one another like never before, from revenge porn to blackmail, attaching life-altering risks to growing up, dating online, or falling in love. 
 
 
 
A masterful new look at privacy in the twenty-first century, The Fight for Privacy takes the focus off Silicon Valley moguls to investigate the price we pay as technology migrates deeper into every aspect of our lives: entering our bedrooms and our bathrooms and our midnight texts; our relationships with friends, family, lovers, and kids; and even our relationship with ourselves.

Seeing 'What Is' is Action -...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Seeing ‘what is’ is action - 24 May 1975  
• If truth is something totally different from reality then what place has action in 
daily life, in relation to truth and reality? 
• Seeing ‘what is’ is action. 
• What place has love in truth? 
• When I separate you, in that separation love cannot exist. 
• How are you to convey the sense of truth to a student? 
• As long as I live in the field of reality, which has its own energy, that energy will 
not free me. 
• When the mind is empty, when the mind is nothing, not a thing, in that there is 
perception.
