Sinopse

"Persia's Royal Legacy" offers a compelling exploration of how three major Persian dynasties—the Achaemenids, Parthians, and Sassanids—fundamentally shaped world civilization through their sophisticated approaches to governance, architecture, and cultural development.Spanning nearly 1,200 years of history, the book reveals how these empires successfully managed vast territories from India to Egypt through innovative administrative systems, particularly the Achaemenid model of satrapal governance, which expertly balanced central authority with regional autonomy. The narrative progresses chronologically from the rise of Cyrus the Great, examining how Persian ingenuity manifested in various spheres of imperial administration.Readers discover how Persian engineers revolutionized water management and urban planning, evidenced in magnificent sites like Persepolis and Ctesiphon. The empire's influence extended beyond physical achievements to encompass lasting contributions in literature, bureaucratic record-keeping, and epic poetry, demonstrating the remarkable sophistication of Persian civilization.Through careful analysis of archaeological evidence, contemporary accounts, and historical records, the book challenges Western-centric historical perspectives by highlighting how Persian innovations in taxation, postal systems, and bureaucratic organization established precedents that influenced subsequent empires, including Islamic caliphates and European monarchies. This comprehensive examination provides valuable insights into how ancient Persian solutions to imperial administration continue to resonate in modern governance systems, making it an essential resource for students of world history and those interested in understanding the foundations of contemporary governmental structures.

    Lamar Hardwick was thirty-six years old when he found out he was on the autism spectrum. While this revelation helped him understand and process his own experience, it also prompted a difficult re-evaluation of who he was as a person. And as a pastor, it started him on a new path of considering the way disabled people are treated in the church. 
     
     
     
    Disability and the Church is a practical and theological reconsideration of the church's responsibilities to the disabled community. Too often disabled persons are pushed away from the church or made to feel unwelcome in any number of ways. As Hardwick writes, "This should not be." He insists that the good news of Jesus affirms God's image in all people, and he offers practical steps and strategies to build stronger, truly inclusive communities of faith.

    Warmly narrated by Christian Coulson with atmospheric music and sound design,this audiobook offers listeners a gentle and reflective listening experience. 
     
    From the author and illustrator of the international bestseller Big Panda and Tiny Dragon comes a beautifully illustrated exploration into the journeys we take for self-discovery and the connections we make along the way. 
    In a distant city, an old cat considers himself as wise as can be, until he hears of an ancient pine far away, under the boughs of which infinite wisdom can be found. Thus, the Cat embarks on a journey deep into the forest to search for the tree. Along the way, he meets new friends—the Hare, the Magpie, the Wolf Cub, the Monkey, the Tortoise, and the Tiger—and comes across the energetic young Kitten. What wisdom does the Cat have to impart to his friends, and, perhaps more importantly, what does he still have to learn? 
    Inspired by Zen stories, The Cat Who Taught Zen has wisdom to offer all readers.

    Black Women Ivory Tower -...

    Black women are heading to college in record numbers, and more and more Black women are teaching in higher education. But these statistics don’t guarantee our safety there.  
     
    Willpower and grit may improve achievement for Black people in school, but they don’t secure our belonging. In fact, the very structure of higher education ensures that we’re treated as guests, outsiders to the institutional family—outnumbered and unwelcome. 
     
    In this compelling exploration of what it means to be a Black woman pursuing higher education, Dr. Jasmine L. Harris moves beyond the “data points” to examine the day-to-day impacts of racism in education on Black women as individuals, the longer-term consequences to our personal and professional lives, and the generational costs to our entire families. 
     
    “I want to arm as many Black girls and women as I can with the knowledge about these spaces that I lacked,” says Dr. Harris. “By laying bare my own traumas, and those of Black women before me, I am providing them the tools to protect themselves, with an understanding of how deliberately many institutions will try to undercut them.” 
     
    Trial and error have been required of Black students to navigate systems of discrimination and disadvantage. But this book now offers useful support, illuminating the community of Black women dealing with similar issues. The author’s story is not unusual, nor are her interactions anomalies. Black Women, Ivory Tower explores why.

    An addictively free-ranging survey of the massive impact that the humble and loveable sheep have had on human history.From the plains of ancient Mesopotamia to the rolling hills of medieval England to the vast sheep farms of modern-day Australia, the domesticated ungulates of the genus Ovis—sheep—have been central to the human story.Starting with our Neolithic ancestors' first forays into sheep-rearing nearly 10,000 years ago, these remarkable animals have fed us, clothed us, changed our diet and languages, helped us to win wars, decorated our homes, and financed the conquest of large swathes of the earth. Enormous fortunes and new, society-changing industries have been made from the fleeces of sheep, and cities shaped by shepherds' markets and meat trading.Sally Coulthard weaves the rich and fascinating story of sheep into a vivid and colorful tapestry, thickly threaded with engaging anecdotes and remarkable ovine facts, whose multiple strands reflect the deep penetration of these woolly animals into every aspect of human society and culture.
