Beschreibung

The Levellers: A Dialogue Between Two Young Ladies serves as a poignant exploration of radical political thought in 17th-century England, particularly during the tumultuous period of the English Civil War. Utilizing a dialogue format, the text presents two young women engaging in a spirited debate about egalitarian principles, civil rights, and the transformative potential of democratic governance. The literary style is characterized by a blend of philosophical inquiry and social commentary, reflecting the influences of Enlightenment ideals that were emerging at the time. Through their conversation, the text critiques conventional social hierarchies and advocates for a broader interpretation of liberty and justice. The authorship of this work remains anonymous, but its content suggests a keen awareness of the historical context in which it was written. It resonates with the ideals espoused by the Levellers, a political movement advocating for popular sovereignty and individual rights. The anonymity may reflect a cultural tension of the era, where dissenting voices navigated the delicate political landscape of their time, risking persecution for their beliefs. This book is an essential read for those interested in the intersections of gender, politics, and philosophy. Its rich dialogue offers valuable insights into early feminist thought and the radical questioning of authority. Readers will find itself a compelling invitation to reflect on the enduring relevance of these discussions in contemporary societal contexts.

    Though people frequently use mobile technologies for news consumption, evidence from several fields shows that smaller screens and slower connection speeds pose major limitations for meaningful reading. In News and Democratic Citizens in the Mobile Era, Johanna Dunaway and Kathleen Searles demonstrate the effects of mobile devices on news attention, engagement, and recall, and identify a key cognitive mechanism underlying these effects: cognitive effort. They advance a theory that is both old and new: the costs of information-seeking curb participatory behaviors unless the benefits outweigh them. For news consumers in the mobile era, for example, mobile devices increase the time, economic, and cognitive costs associated with information-seeking. Only for a small few do the benefits of attending to the news on mobile devices outweigh the costs. 
     
     
     
    Dunaway and Searles argue that attention, engagement, and recall suffer when people consume news on mobile devices. They then investigate the implications of these effects for the news industry and for an informed democratic citizenry. Drawing on both laboratory and real-world studies, Dunaway and Searles bring the psychophysiology of news consumption to bear on the question of what we could lose in an information environment characterized by a dramatic shift in reliance on mobile devices.

    Combat biographies of seven ace pilots flying for the Nazi German air force during World War II, featuring in-the-cockpit accounts of aerial dogfights. Whether providing support for the blitzkrieg in Poland and France, bombing British cities and industrial centers, or attacking Allied fighters and bombers in the light of day and dark of night, the Luftwaffe revolutionized aerial warfare and experienced some of World War II’s most harrowing combat. For the pilots who carried out these missions, every flight meant possible death and certain danger. Franz Kurowski puts readers in the cockpit with seven of these men—three day-fighter, on night-fighter, one close-support, and two bomber pilots—who were among the most successful ever to take to the skies.

    A magical grimoire of sigils and rituals for summoning and mastering spirits, The Key of Solomon the King is the most famous, or infamous, of all magick books. It has influenced everything from the revival of magick and the Western Mystery Traditions (tarot, alchemy, astrology, etc.) to fictional works such as Lovecraft’s The Necronomicon.Purported to have been penned by King Solomon himself, the book provides instruction for incantations, rituals, and sigils used to call upon and control spirits and demons. Those practicing magick have used it extensively through the centuries, but its true origins and purpose have been lost in the mists of time.No library of the contemporary occult student or practicing magician is complete without this tome. It remains a standard of esoteric lore by which others are measured. This edition includes a new foreword by noted esoteric scholar Joseph Peterson.

    America: Standing Strong, from award-winning author Robert J. Emery (www.robertjemeryauthor.com) 
    In 1920, while campaigning for the office of president, Warren G. Harding said in a campaign speech, “America’s present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums, but normalcy.” 
    That is where America finds itself today. 
    “America: Standing Strong” brings together investigative reporters, scholars, scientists, philosophers, medical professionals, elected officials across the political spectrum and an endless string of quotes from respected voices, past and present, to examine the events of recent years, not what we already know, but what we may not, or have yet to acknowledge, in our quest for reformation. Every voice counts.
