  *Introduced by Rory Stewart* 
  What makes a person good? What does it mean to be evil? And what does it tell us about being human? 
  Philosophers have been grappling with these questions for thousands of years, and they remain as vital as ever in our present moment. Here, in a selection of essays each written by a different world expert, we explore the ideas of twelve strikingly different philosophers. From Hannah Arendt’s 'banality of evil' to Nietzsche’s embrace of suffering, from John Stuart Mill’s ethics of happiness to the ruthless realism of Machiavelli, there is an approach for readers of all persuasions. This is the book for anyone trying to understand how humans can sometimes behave so badly, and how we can all be better. 
  Dive into the GOOD AND EVIL, the latest literary masterpiece edited by Andrew Irwin, as it delves into the moral themes of philosophy. This non-fiction book, a top pick among individual readers, is a must-have for anyone seeking to understand the subjects of good and evil.

  Ancient Egyptian Astronomy and...

  Among the most intriguing aspects of ancient Egyptian culture is the relationship between their observations of the heavens and their beliefs about life, death, and cosmic order. While modern Egyptologists debate whether the Egyptians practiced astrology in the sense familiar to people today, it is universally acknowledged that they maintained a profound “Star Religion” from very early times. The term “Star Religion” encompasses a reverence for celestial phenomena, especially the stars, and their integration into religious ritual, calendar systems, and mythology. However, whether this system extended to linking human birth and life with celestial positions remains contentious. 
  	Some independent researchers, such as John Anthony West, an American Egyptologist and writer, argue that the Egyptians did indeed incorporate astrology as part of their sacred science. West contends that astronomical observations were closely connected to the timing of human life and the divine order, implying that celestial patterns influenced both earthly events and the lives of individuals. Traditional Egyptologists, however, caution against projecting later astrological practices backward into the prehistoric or early dynastic periods of Egypt, emphasizing that surviving textual evidence primarily reflects religious and ritualistic use of celestial phenomena rather than predictive or personal astrology. 
  Regardless of how they’re analyzed, from the earliest periods of their civilization, the Egyptians observed the night sky with remarkable attention to detail. Astronomical phenomena were integrated into their ritual calendar, architecture, and mythological narratives, and the brightest star visible from Earth, Sirius (known in ancient Egypt as Spdt), is mentioned as early as 2300 BCE in the Pyramid Texts, although it was undoubtedly observed much earlier.

  Ngā Kete Mātauranga - Māori...

  In this beautiful and transformative book, 24 Māori academics share their personal journeys, revealing what being Māori has meant for them in their work. Their perspectives provide insight for all New Zealanders into how mātauranga is positively influencing the Western-dominated disciplines of knowledge in the research sector. It is a shameful fact, says co-editor Jacinta Ruru in her introduction to Nga Kete Mātauranga, that in 2020, only about 5 percent of academic staff at universities in Aotearoa New Zealand are Māori. Tertiary institutions have for the most part been hostile places for Indigenous students and staff, and this book is an important call for action. ‘It is well past time that our country seriously commits to decolonising the tertiary workforce, curriculum and research agenda,’ writes Professor Ruru.
