Sinopse

Paths Erased explores the fascinating world of ancient roads and lost pathways, revealing how these forgotten routes shaped civilizations. The book highlights the intricate relationships between societies and their environments by examining the construction, utilization, and eventual abandonment of these vital arteries.

 
Discover how the Roman road system facilitated trade and military campaigns, while also acknowledging the environmental impact and displacement of indigenous populations caused by routes like the Oregon Trail.

 
The book unfolds in three parts, beginning with an introduction to the historical and archaeological significance of "erased paths." It then examines the environmental changes, political instability, and technological advancements that led to their disappearance, such as the Mayan causeways' abandonment due to deforestation.

 
Finally, the book details the methods used by archaeologists and historians to rediscover these pathways, including satellite imagery analysis and archaeological excavation. By studying these forgotten routes, we gain a unique lens through which to understand the dynamics of past civilizations and draw lessons for present-day challenges in infrastructure and cultural preservation.

    Isabella’s life shatters the night she’s taken. Not for ransom, not for revenge, but as a twisted offering to a man who dwells in shadows. Dante Moretti, a figure whispered about in hushed tones, now holds her captive in his secluded estate. He claims she is his, bound to him by a debt she doesn't understand.
    
    As days bleed into weeks, Isabella finds herself drawn into Dante’s dangerous world. His touch is a brand, his gaze a cage, and his possessive nature ignites a forbidden desire she can't deny. But Dante is not merely a captor; he's a man battling his own demons, haunted by a past that threatens to consume them both. Isabella becomes his obsession, his solace, and perhaps, his undoing.
    
    Trapped between fear and fascination, Isabella must navigate the treacherous currents of Dante’s affections. Every stolen kiss, every whispered promise, tightens the chains that bind them. But as the line between captor and captive blurs, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself, about Dante, and about the darkness that lurks beneath the surface.
    
    Will Isabella succumb to the allure of her captor, or will she find a way to break free from the gilded cage he has built around her heart? And what will happen when the secrets that bind them together are finally revealed?
    
    Perfect for fans of Penelope Douglas and Ana Huang, *Venom and Vows* is a dark and steamy captive romance that explores the intoxicating power of obsession and the dangerous allure of forbidden love.

    Prolific and widely renowned, Eileen Myles is a trailblazer whose decades of literary and artistic work “set a bar for openness, frankness, and variability few lives could ever match” (New York Review of Books). This newest book paints a kaleidoscopic portrait of a beloved confidant: the pit bull called Rosie. 
    In 1990, Myles chose Rosie from a litter on the street, and their connection instantly became central to the writer’s life and work. During the course of their sixteen years together, Myles was madly devoted to the dog’s well-being, especially in her final days. Starting from the emptiness following Rosie’s death, Afterglow launches a heartfelt and fabulist investigation into the true nature of the bond between pet and pet owner. Through this lens, we witness Myles’ experiences with intimacy and spirituality, celebrity and politics, alcoholism and recovery, fathers and family history, as well as the fantastical myths we spin to get to the heart of grief. 
    Moving from an imaginary talk show where Rosie is interviewed by Myles’ childhood puppet to a critical reenactment of the night Rosie mated with another pit bull, from lyrical transcriptions of their walks to Rosie’s enlightened narration from the afterlife, Afterglow illuminates all that it can mean when we dedicate our existence to a dog.

    I Think, Therefore I’m Wrong: Descartes and the Birth of Overconfidence is your gloriously sarcastic, brutally honest, and deeply unhinged guide to the man who launched modern philosophy with one anxious thought spiral and never looked back. 
    René Descartes: French, wealthy, suspicious of everything, and armed with just enough Latin to convince the world that his personal identity crisis was actually a groundbreaking intellectual framework. From doubting the entire universe to claiming God exists because the idea of God felt right, Descartes pioneered a system so elegantly flawed it haunted philosophers for centuries—and now you get to enjoy the wreckage. 
    In this book, Sophia Blackwell (Kant You Not, Leibniz’s Monads) takes you on a laugh-out-loud demolition tour of: 
    The Four-Step Method of Doubt, also known as gaslighting the cosmos 
    The Cogito, or how to accidentally make thinking sound smug 
    God as epistemological tech support 
    Mind-body dualism, or “what if you’re just a haunted skeleton?” 
    Descartes’ legacy in science, psychology, AI, and every freshman who says “I'm not my body, bro.” 
    Whether you’re a philosophy student, a recovering Cartesian, or just here to watch the metaphysical world burn, this book explains Descartes’ ideas the way they were always meant to be understood: with sarcasm, side-eye, and a glass of wine. 
    I think, therefore I spiral. Let’s go
