Summary

The "History of the 3rd Battalion, 1st Punjab Regiment" provides a meticulous account of the operational legacy of one of the distinguished infantry regiments of the British Indian Army. Written in a documentary style, the book employs a wealth of primary sources, including firsthand accounts, official dispatches, and historical analyses, to recreate the battalion's significant engagements and contributions from its inception to its integration into the modern military framework. The narrative bridges colonial military tradition with contemporary military history, revealing insights into the socio-political context of the time and showcasing the valor and dedication of the soldiers. The author, remaining anonymous, likely represents a discerning military historian or an amalgamation of voices who have had close ties with the Punjab Regiment, contributing to the rich tapestry of the battalion's stories. This enigma surrounding the authorship allows readers to focus purely on the content, which is steeped in familial pride, historical significance, and a deep respect for the regiment's sacrifices across various conflicts. This book is an essential read for scholars, military history enthusiasts, and those interested in the implications of colonial history. It not only illuminates the past but also serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities of duty and allegiance, making it a valuable addition to any historical library.

    Not So Sorry - Abusers False...

    From religious communities to therapeutic spaces, the importance of forgiving those who’ve wronged us is often enshrined as an unqualified good. But what about horrifying cases of abuse, predatory behavior, or systemic wrong? Too often, when predators or abusers are exposed, the chorus comes immediately: “What about forgiveness?” In these cases, forgiveness places the onus on victims, diminishes real hurt and anger, lets perpetrators off the hook, and prevents justice from being done.  
 
In Not So Sorry, journalist and culture critic Kaya Oakes tackles these questions with intelligence, nuance, and a bit of righteous anger. Ranging from Christian theology and world history to psychology and pop culture, Oakes takes us on a whirlwind tour of the many abuses of the concept of forgiveness, including the abuse scandals of the Catholic church, the outing of high-profile abusers like Larry Nassar, and white America’s obsession with false narratives of marginalized people granting forgiveness to oppressors. Ultimately, Oakes dares us to ask the necessary question: Is it ever better not to forgive? 
 
“Kaya Oakes challenges those slippery, PR-constructed apologies that leave us rolling our eyes. But she does more than that. Throughout Not So Sorry, Kaya Oakes listens to the voices of victims, allows us to wrestle with our assumptions, and leads us on a path to restore justice.”—Rev. Carol Howard, author of Healing Spiritual Wounds: Reconnecting with a Loving God after Experiencing a Hurtful Church, and pastor of Bedford Presbyterian Church

    From psychologist, researcher, and horror film enthusiast Brian A. Sharpless comes Monsters on the Couch, an exploration into the real-life psychological disorders behind famous horror movies. Accounts of clinical syndromes every bit as dramatic as those on the silver screen are juxtaposed with fascinating forays into the science and folklore behind our favorite movie monsters. 
 
 
 
Horror fans may be obsessed with vampires, werewolves, zombies, and the human replacements from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, but even many medical professionals may not know about the corresponding conditions of Renfield's syndrome, clinical lycanthropy, Cotard's syndrome, and Capgras syndrome. 
 
 
 
Some of these disorders are surprisingly common in the general population. For instance, a number of people experience isolated sleep paralysis, a disorder implicated in ghost and alien abduction beliefs. Fascinations with sleep paralysis have led to its own brimming subgenre of horror. 
 
 
 
As these tales unfold, listeners not only learn state-of-the-art psychological science but also gain a better understanding of history, folklore, and how Hollywood often—but not always—gets it wrong when tackling these complex topics.
