Summary

Ruins Discovered explores lost cities and structures to reveal insights into past civilizations and human history, focusing on environmental factors and socio-political dynamics that shaped their rise and fall. The book highlights how studying these ruins offers valuable lessons for understanding contemporary challenges, such as urban resilience and sustainable development. For example, the decline of certain ancient cities can be attributed to unsustainable resource management, a lesson applicable to modern urban planning.

 
The book progresses through an introduction to key archaeological concepts, followed by case studies organized around major themes, including the influence of the natural environment, the role of political structures, and the impact of cultural exchange. By integrating archaeological evidence with historical context and environmental analysis, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of these sites. It emphasizes the importance of cultural preservation by examining the ethical considerations involved in archaeological exploration.

    Craze begins in early ’90s Sydney’s underground rave scene—but it doesn’t stay there. 
    Written by record store owner, underground DJ, and community organiser Stephan Győry, Craze is not just a memoir of the Second Summer of Love or history of electronic dance music —although those two themes remain prominent throughout the book 
    At its core, Craze It is an investigation into what happens when a generation grows up without functioning rites of passage—and has to invent its own. 
    Drawing on lived experience, psychology, anthropology, drug culture, music history, and spiritual inquiry, Craze traces a thirty-year attempt to reverse-engineer adulthood from first principles. Along the way, it moves through raves, relationships, religion, altered states, breakdowns, breakthroughs, and the slow reconstruction of meaning. 
    This is not a book about drugs, despite what it contains. 
    It is not a book about raves, despite where it starts. 
    And it is not a manifesto, despite its convictions. 
    At its heart, Craze is about initiation without elders: how misfired rites of passage show up as anxiety, guilt, masculinity crises, spiritual confusion, and cultural collapse—and how they might be resolved without superstition, dogma, or denial. 
    What sets Craze apart is its epistemic honesty. Győry shows his working. When he’s wrong, he says so. When he overreaches, he corrects. When something breaks him, he documents the cost. The result is persuasive without being evangelical, rigorous without being sterile, and grounded without being small. 
    Craze is for people who feel that something is wrong—with masculinity, with religion, with adulthood, with modern life—but refuse simple answers. 
    Part cultural history, part psychological autopsy, part personal reckoning, Craze gives language to experiences many people have lived through privately and incoherently.

    Father Charles Coughlin was a controversial Canadian-American Catholic priest based in Michigan. Calling for monetary reforms, the nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of the rights of labor, Coughlin used weekly radio broadcasts to reach a mass audience of up to thirty million listeners during the 1930s. 
    An early supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal, Coughlin later became a harsh critic. Coughlin’s commentary also became more anti-semitic, and he supported some of the fascist policies of Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito. As a result, many American Catholic leaders, as well as the Vatican, wanted Coughlin silenced. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the Roosevelt administration finally forced the cancellation of his radio program and forbade the dissemination of his newspaper, Social Justice. 
    In this recording, Coughlin first discusses Franklin D. Roosevelt, and then the consequences of World War I twenty years after.
