Sinopse

Manu-Smr̥ti is one of the most coveted and popular works of ancient India. It comprises codes that are needed for an ideal, peaceful and harmonious society. The entire Manu-Smr̥ti revolves around the Vedic concept of r̥ta or dharma. The concepts of puruṣārthas, āsramas and varṇas have their roots in dharma. These concepts were meant to make the life of every member of the society fruitful and purposeful. The codes prescribed by Manu became an authority on ancient laws and were put in practice. The scholars working in different fields of sociology, religion, philosophy, ethics, ancient laws and politics are bound to consult Manu-Smr̥ti for some reason or the other.The present book is an effort to bring together all scattered materials related to different topics contained in Manu-Smr̥ti. The book also aims to diffuse many of the doubts related to certain topics contained in Manu-Smr̥ti, for example, status of brāhmaṇa, śūdra and woman. The analysis of topics such as human values, rāja-dharma and Manu’s codes on crime and punishment has been presented in this book in a lucid style. All these topics bear great relevance even in modern times. The volume tries to maintain the originality of Manu’s concepts through rational and honest approach. The book also includes few modern subjects like economics, ecosystem management and biodiversity conservation that have been dealt by Manu in a scientific manner.This book will benefit all those who want to know about the rules and practices that governed our ancient history, pertaining to all the aspects of human life.

    Jose "Pepin" Almeida is an unlikely hero. He never acted in the movies, never threw the winning pass, never sat in high office. Even his involvement in the event that u-turned his life, the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, failed and became a national embarrassment. 
    He laments, "We were in a helpless and hopeless situation." But Pepin Almeida soon, out of necessity, created his own hope. Denied all tangible things- clothes, family, food, he discovered his soul, his only true possession.

    Did the State of Kentucky convict an innocent man? Moments before boarding a passenger flight on 11 May 2019 as the first officer, pilot Christian "Kit" Martin, a former army ranger, was arrested by a swarm of heavily armed officers for the murders of three of his neighbors. The arrest captured global attention as Martin's mugshot, clad in a pilot's uniform, spread across the internet, sparking a media firestorm with headlines such as "Monster in the Cockpit." A combat helicopter pilot, Kit Martin had seen his life unravel after seeking a divorce. His wife's threatening words, "If you leave me, I will ruin your life …," overheard by his daughter, seemed to have become a grim reality, escalating to a court-martial and culminating in a high-stakes murder trial at which he was convicted. I WILL RUIN YOU: The Twisted Truth Behind the Kit Martin Murder Trial delves into the complex circumstances behind Martin’s story. It looks beyond the sensational headlines and legal turmoil into the heart of this controversial case. With an investigative journalist’s eye, author Emilio Corsetti III presents the facts of the crime that led to the arrest and the extraordinary lengths used to secure a conviction in this unforgettable true crime page-turner.

    The Enneagram isn't about classifying people into a certain type according to a few questions and leaving them there with all the judgments that come with their personality type. In reality, the Enneagram is a complex system that keeps on giving you secret internal knowledge about yourself and your psyche the more you delve into it. The Enneagram recognizes nine types of personalities, each with their own attributes that interact with each other to form the core of your being. By studying each personality, you can get a deeper understanding of people, their motives and desires, and the core beliefs that surround everything they do.  
    The Enneagram is also important because of the knowledge it can give you about your words and actions. We tend to have very little information about ourselves because most of our motives and drives are so inherent to us that we have lost any trace of their emergence. The behavior that we normalize might just be toxic, and we aren't able to see it for what it is because we are blinded by ourselves.  
    In this book, we’re going to take a look at the idea of identity and what it means, the perspective that the Enneagram presents us with on identity, how you can use the Enneagram personality test to help you and your partner formulate a better relationship, how by identifying your personality type you can achieve self-growth, the different subtypes under the main Enneagram types, how it can be used at work and business to make communication better within the corporation, and how parents can use the Enneagram personality types to help their children.
