Sinopsis

"Politics" by Aristotle stands as a timeless beacon of political philosophy, illuminating the intricate tapestry of governance and human society. Within its pages lies a profound exploration of the mechanics of states, the intricacies of political systems, and the quest for the ideal society.

Aristotle, one of history's most influential philosophers, embarks on an intellectual journey that transcends time and place. His work dissects the nature of politics, from the microcosm of individual ethics to the macrocosm of statecraft, establishing a framework that continues to inform contemporary political thought.

Within "Politics," readers encounter a brilliant dissection of the various forms of government, from aristocracy to democracy and oligarchy. Aristotle explores the delicate balance between the needs of the individual and the collective, scrutinizing how governments ought to function to promote justice and the common good.

The ethical underpinnings of "Politics" resonate through Aristotle's explication of virtue, as he contends that the role of a just state is to cultivate citizens who are not only virtuous but also capable of leading a life of fulfillment and purpose.

This magnum opus traverses the spectrum of human governance, examining not only the ideal but also the practical, shedding light on the complexities and dilemmas inherent in political life. Aristotle's insights on the tension between freedom and order, equality and hierarchy, are as relevant today as they were in antiquity.

"Politics" beckons readers to contemplate the essence of the human condition and the art of governance with a profundity that has captivated the greatest minds for centuries. It remains an enduring testament to Aristotle's enduring wisdom and a vital source of inspiration for those who seek to understand the intricate web of politics and society.

    This book consists of five titles related to Native American history, which are the following: 
    1 - Geronimo: Geronimo, a legendary Apache leader and medicine man from the Bedonkohe band, played a pivotal role in resisting Mexican and American military forces during the 19th century. Between 1850 and 1886, he worked with warriors from three other Chiricahua Apache bands to carry out daring raids and resist encroachments on Apache lands. 
    2 - Pocahontas: Pocahontas was a Native American woman from the Powhatan-speaking tribe, most famous for her connection to the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. She was the daughter of Powhatan, the powerful chief of Tsenacommacah, a confederation of about 30 Algonquian-speaking tribes in the Tidewater region of Virginia. 
    3 - Pontiac's War: Pontiac's War, also referred to as Pontiac's Conspiracy or Pontiac's Rebellion, was a significant conflict that emerged in the aftermath of the French and Indian War (1754–1763). In 1763, a coalition of Native American tribes, disillusioned with the increasing British presence and control in the Great Lakes region, united under the leadership of the Odawa chieftain Pontiac. 
    4 - Seminole Wars: The Seminole Wars, also known as the Florida Wars, were a series of three interconnected military conflicts that took place in Florida between the United States and the Seminole people, a group of Native Americans who had established themselves in the region during the early 1700s. 
    5 - Trail of Tears: The Trail of Tears was a harrowing series of forced relocations that took place between 1830 and 1850, impacting approximately 60,000 American Indians from the so-called "Five Civilized Tribes." These tribes, which included the Cherokee, Muscogee (Creek), Seminole, Chickasaw, and Choctaw nations, were driven from their ancestral lands in the Southeastern United States to designated areas in the west.

    We're all looking for that perfect balance between loving ourselves and becoming the best person we can be. But it's going to take more than bubble baths, wine, $8 lattes, affirmations, and other bullsh*t social media has deemed essential for #selfcare and #selfimprovement. 
     
     
     
    To truly become your best self, you have to be a little more . . . 
     
     
     
    SELFISH. 
     
     
     
    Selfishness is perhaps the world's most controversial, undesirable, and misunderstood trait—particularly for women. In our lives, we bend over backward to avoid this stigmatizing label. 
     
     
     
    But what if we didn't? 
     
     
     
    In Self-ish, clinical psychologist Sunita Osborn challenges what we think we know about selfishness. With radical candor and bold humor, she dispels the myths and distortions that surround the fundamental psychological concepts of self-care, self-trust, self-love, and self-discipline, explaining how these terms have become empty badges of honor because of social media, societal norms, and our upbringings. 
     
     
     
    Dr. Osborn urges women everywhere to unapologetically nurture their personal growth with strength and wisdom, blazing a path to self-leadership with encouragement, tools, and concrete steps to level-up their whole selves.
