Beschreibung

Sugar Production History unveils the profound influence of sugar, transforming from a simple grass into a world-altering commodity. This book traces sugar's journey from its New Guinea origins to its pervasive role in modern life, impacting economies and societies globally. Sugar's story reveals how it fueled the transatlantic slave trade, creating vast plantation economies dependent on forced labor. The book further explores how sugar production transformed with the Industrial Revolution, leading to modern extraction and refining methods. The book unfolds chronologically and thematically, beginning with sugar's botanical origins and early adoption. It then investigates the spread of sugar cultivation, particularly in the Caribbean and the Americas, detailing the rise of plantation economies reliant on enslaved labor. Finally, the book analyzes sugar's current impact on global health, trade, and sustainability, emphasizing its role as a key driver in global trade and colonialism. By providing a comprehensive historical analysis, this book offers insights into contemporary issues related to global trade, labor rights, and sustainable agriculture.

    The Will to Conquer: Mastering Power, Strategy, and the Art of War is a manifesto for those who refuse to be ruled. Power is not a privilege granted by fate—it is seized by those with the vision, discipline, and ruthlessness to take it. 
    In this book, A.A. Castor dismantles the myths of fairness, morality, and justice, exposing them for what they truly are: illusions designed to keep the weak in submission. Drawing from the principles of history's greatest strategists—Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, Nietzsche, and beyond—The Will to Conquer explores the foundations of dominance, manipulation, and control. 
    This book reveals: 
    ✔ The Laws of Power – How rulers impose their will and eliminate opposition. 
    ✔ The Art of Strategy – Why battles are won before they are fought. 
    ✔ The Psychology of a Ruler – How to think beyond morality and hesitation. 
    ✔ The Mastery of Deception – Why perception is more powerful than reality. 
    ✔ The Will to Power – How to overcome fear, doubt, and self-imposed limitations. 
    Power does not wait for the patient, nor does it reward those who seek validation. It belongs to those who demand it. If you are ready to break free from the illusions of the weak and forge your own destiny, this book will show you the way. 
    "There is no universal law—only the law of those strong enough to impose it."

    Sirius, the Star of the Maltese Temples invites the reader to look at the megalithic temples of Malta in an entirely new way. The discovery of the temples’ orientation to Sirius explains with mathematical precision the slight shift in the direction of their axes, caused by the movement of the stars called the Precession of the Equinoxes. The resultant astronomical dating of the temples to the Mesolithic, the period immediately after the last Ice Age, is far older than mainstream archaeology maintains and is on a par with other megalithic sites elsewhere, including Göbekli Tepe in Turkey. These findings turn on its head our conception of the accomplishments of ancient people. Instead of being just primitive cave-dwellers, they were primeval astronomers, whose interest in the sky has left us a legacy we never dreamt existed. 
    From the Foreword by Giovanni Bonello: “This is a disturbing book. The author defines its contents as controversial and its conclusions as surprising. I judge it to be far, but far, more than that. It is disruptive of accepted wisdom and unsettles all we believe we knew of the origin of man in Malta, of the sequences of early civilization and the histories of prehistory – not in Malta alone, but throughout the whole of Europe. I started reading it in awe, at first with a deliberate effort at disbelief. By the time I was approaching the climax of the exposition, I ended as mesmerized as I was perplexed.” 
    (Giovanni Bonello is a human rights lawyer and judge who served at the European Court of Human Rights for 12 years)

    Unmasking the Klansman may read like a work of fiction but is actually a biography of Asa Carter, one of the South's most notorious white supremacists (and secret Klansman). In the early 1960s Carter became a secret adviser to George Wallace and wrote the Alabama governor's infamous 1963 inauguration speech vowing "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." When Carter disappeared from Alabama in 1972, few knew that he had assumed a new identity in Abilene, Texas, masquerading as a Cherokee American novelist. Using the name "Forrest" Carter, he published three successful Western novels, including The Rebel Outlaw, which Clint Eastwood made into a movie. His last book, The Education of Little Tree (a fake biography of his supposed Indian childhood) posthumously became a number one bestseller in 1991. 
     
     
     
    Author Dan T. Carter uncovered "Forrest" Carter's true identity while researching his biography of Georgia Wallace and in a New York Times op-ed he exposed Carter's deception. Although the difficulties of uncovering the full story of the secretive Carter initially led him to abandon the project, in 2018 he gained access to more than two hundred interviews by the late Anniston newsman, Fred Burger. These recordings and his two decades of exhaustive research finally brought Asa Carter's story into focus. Unmasking the Klansman is the result.

     Queen Elizabeth I took Parliament by surprise when she began her speech of November 30, 1601. They had expected a discussion of the nation’s economic situation, but instead she announced this speech would be her last as Queen. She drew tears from some of her listeners as she spoke earnestly of her love for her position, people, and country, saying, “though you have had and may have many mightier and wiser Princes sitting in this Seat, yet you never had, nor shall have any that will love you better.” The speech was later printed, accompanied by a note reading, “This speech ought to be set in letters of gold.”

    Your anxiety has an important message for you. Are you listening?
     
    The mistake most people make with anxiety is trying everything in their power to get rid of it. They may try meditation and breathwork, medication or therapy. The aim is almost always the same: to get rid of anxiety because “anxiety is the problem.”
     
    But anxiety is not the problem.
     
    In fact, anxiety is a necessary and useful emotional response that has played a critical role in our survival for millions of years. Unfortunately, most of us have not been taught what to do with anxiety when it becomes loud and intrusive. So we become afraid of it and view anxiety as a problem we want to solve once and for all.
     
    But getting rid of anxiety is impossible because it’s a natural emotional response. And trying to get rid of it only causes more anxiety because the more we fear anxiety, the more we feel it, until we become anxious about being anxious.
     
    Anxiety comes to use when it has an important message. It is our internal alarm system for potential threats in life. It is designed to keep you safe and alert you to areas of your life that need attention. But when you treat anxiety like it is the problem without paying attention to its message for you, the deeper problems remain, and anxiety only gets louder.
     
    In The Gift of Anxiety, clinical psychologist Diante Fuchs offers a new way to respond to anxiety. Sharing the unique EASE Method for working with anxiety, the book offers a powerful, calm approach that has helped hundreds of people transform their relationship with anxiety and with themselves. With this step-by-step guidance anyone can learn to how to stop fighting anxiety, listen to it, and use it as the gift it truly is.
     
    This book is specifically designed to help those suffering from anxiety find peace one simple step at a time.
