Sinopsis

Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" stands as a foundational text in Western ethical philosophy, providing a systematic inquiry into the nature of the good life and moral virtue. Written in a clear, systematic style, Aristotle explores concepts such as happiness (eudaimonia), moral virtue, and the importance of friendship, weaving together empirical observations with profound philosophical reasoning. Set in the context of Ancient Greece, this work reflects the rich intellectual tradition of the time, engaging with Socratic ideas while proposing a unique virtue ethics framework, emphasizing the cultivation of character over mere adherence to rules. Aristotle, a student of Plato and tutor to Alexander the Great, draws on his extensive empirical studies and philosophical debates, offering insights shaped by a lifetime of inquiry into human behavior and the natural world. His experiences within the Athenian philosophical community and his practical concerns about the nature of human happiness informed his exploration of ethics as a practical pursuit, one intimately connected to human flourishing. This essential text is highly recommended for readers seeking to deepen their understanding of moral philosophy. "Nicomachean Ethics" is not only a cornerstone of ethical thought but also offers timeless wisdom applicable to contemporary life. It invites readers to reflect on their own values and the virtues necessary for a fulfilling existence.

    How to stop making excuses, ditch delaying tactics, and achieve your goals without feeling like it’s a chore. 
    Is there something you want to accomplish but can’t seem to follow through with, whether it’s making healthier choices, learning a new language, or limiting social media time? 
    If so, then CONQUER DISCIPLINE is for you! 
    How often do you give in to distractions or struggle to finish what you’ve started, then beat yourself up for feeling like a failure? 
    Do you wish you could be one of those people who have laser focus and keep their eyes on the prize no matter what? 
    Here’s a reality check: What spells the difference between one’s success and failure is not merely talent, intelligence, or even luck – it’s self-discipline. 
    Self-discipline, according to the dictionary, is the ability to control yourself and to make yourself work hard or behave in a particular way without needing anyone else to tell you what to do. 
    Unfortunately, while the benefits of self-discipline have long been established, it has earned a bad reputation. 
    Many people – perhaps including yourself – react negatively to it, most likely because it’s often associated with ideas of harsh punishment, heavy burden, and basically a rigid, joyless life. 
    But that notion cannot be farther from the truth. In fact, a study has shown that practicing self-control makes you happier and more satisfied both in the moment and in the long run. 
    Experts also say that self-discipline is like a muscle – the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. The good news is, unlike a rigorous exercise routine, you don’t need to hire a professional trainer or have fancy equipment and tools to master self-discipline - read the book to discover more...

    A timely and deeply moving story of family, history, and Ukraine 
     
    In 2014, the landmarks of Victoria Belim’s personal geography were plunged into tumult at the hands of Russia. Her hometown, Kyiv, was gripped by protests and violence. Crimea, where she’d once been sent to school to avoid radiation from the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl, was invaded. Kharkiv,  
    where her grandmother Valentina studied economics and fell in love; Donetsk, where her father once worked; and Mariupol, where she and her mother bought a cherry tree for Valentina’s garden, all became battlegrounds. 
     
    Victoria, by then an American citizen living in Brussels, felt she had to go back. She had to spend time with her aging grandmother and her cousin Dima. She had to unravel a family mystery spanning several generations. And she needed to understand how a century of her country’s tragic history had  
    changed the course of their lives. 
     
    The Rooster House is a beautifully written memoir of a family, a country’s past, and its dangerous present. It is about parents and children, true believers and victims, gardens and art, secrets and tragedy. Compulsively readable, deeply moving, and at times laugh-out-loud funny, it is a stunning debut  
    book by an experienced, expressive, and gifted writer.

    In an age obsessed with truth, this book dares to ask whether honesty has ever been what we really wanted. Verity, or the Art of Lying Well is a provocative reflection on storytelling, psychology, and the illusions we choose to believe. Through the lens of one of the most controversial thrillers of the decade, it examines why deception feels so irresistible — in fiction, in love, and in life. Blending philosophy and narrative insight, it reveals how every story is a negotiation between belief and desire, and how the best lies often tell the deepest truths. A book for readers who love thrillers but crave something more: a mirror held up to their own need to be deceived.
