  A new scientific study has suggested that aliens may have been on Earth in ancient times and that they may have created humanity. 
   
  The study, conducted by a team of international scientists, suggests that a group of aliens known as the ‘Anunnaki’ may have come to Earth around 4,000 years ago from the planet Nibiru. 
   
  The study claims that the aliens created humans by splicing their own DNA with that of apes. 
   
  The study has been met with scepticism by many scientists, who say that it is based on dubious evidence. 
   
  However, the team of scientists behind the study say that their evidence is ‘compelling’ and that the theory should be taken seriously. 
   
  So, what do you think? Were aliens on Earth in ancient times and did they create humanity? We’re about to find out.

  Bridging Our Political Divide: How Liberals and Conservatives Can Understand Each Other and Find Common Ground is an essential contribution to a better national conversation. 
   
   
   
  Psychologist Kenneth Barish explains the sources and consistency of our political beliefs and why we continue to disagree about fundamental issues in American life. He offers antidotes to the angry, repetitive, and unproductive arguments that now dominate our political culture. Barish teaches us how to listen, think, and speak about our political opinions in a way that allows us to understand each other's concerns, resist false dichotomies and ideological certainty, see new perspectives and possibilities, and find common ground. The concluding chapter shows how we can move beyond partisan divisions toward pragmatic solutions and a better future for America's children. 
   
   
   
  This fundamentally hopeful book is an essential listen for students in all areas of study, for professionals in the fields of conflict resolution, communication, political science, and social psychology, and for anyone seeking to improve the quality of their conversations with people who may disagree with them, in both politics and in their personal relationships.

  Nan Yar? - Who am I? - The...

  What is liberation? How does the mind become still? What is happiness?Who am I? is the title of a series of 28 questions and answers that Sri M. Shivaprakasham Pillai asked the Indian master Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi around 1902. He visited the master in a cave on Mount Arunachala in southern India and asked for spiritual guidance.It is recorded that Ramana Maharshi answered these questions in Tamil, the language he was familiar with. This text was first published in Tamil in 1923, underwent several revisions, was translated into English by an Indian scholar from the University of Madras in 1982 and finally translated into a modern German version in 2002. The questions that were asked over a hundred years ago have lost none of their validity. The radical answers bear witness to a profound knowledge of the nature of the human spirit and point in an emphatic and uncompromising way to the possibility of realising our true self.This work is one of the only two prose pieces among Ramana Maharshi's messages in his own words. They clearly represent the central teaching that the path of knowledge, the enquiry with the question 'Who am I?' is the direct path to liberation. 'Self-enquiry leads directly to Self-realisation by removing the obstacles that make us think that the Self is not yet realised.'  Sri Ramana MaharshiIn the foreword, OM C. Parkin describes the essence of this spiritual treasure in clear and impressive words: 'All questions that arise from the depths of the human soul ultimately lead to a single one: "Who am I?" The instruction to this last of all questions contains the knowledge that everything a person seeks can only be found within. Love is within. Truth is within. God is within. God is the Self.'

  The Case of Emily V

  "Part diary, part scientific journal, part detective story, part love story: The Case of Emily V is thoroughly post-modern in its deliberate blurring of the distinction between fact and fiction, its cavalier blending of literary genres. But Oatley's first novel … also resembles old 19th-century literature. His characters are dynamic, his storylines complex and suspenseful, his soial commentary broad and integral to the plot." - Marie Campbell, Quill& Quire Quotables

  The Fall of Berlin - The Final...

  In the final years of World War II, the fate of Nazi Germany seemed sealed. By early 1945, the once-feared Reich was in rapid decline. The German military was stretched thin, fighting on multiple fronts, and its once-unstoppable war machine had been crippled by continuous defeats. The Allies from the west and the Soviets from the east were closing in, their forces overwhelming the remnants of the German military. 
    
  In the East, the Red Army’s relentless advance had already pushed the Germans back hundreds of miles from the Soviet Union’s borders. The success of the Soviet offensives, especially following the victory at Stalingrad, left the Nazis reeling. Soviet General Zhukov’s forces had already crossed the Vistula River in Poland and were now bearing down on the Oder River, just a stone’s throw from Berlin. The Red Army’s advance was swift, and Hitler, from his bunker beneath the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, could no longer deny the grim reality that the capital was in imminent danger. 
    
  Despite this, Adolf Hitler refused to surrender or even entertain the thought of defeat. His obsession with holding Berlin—his “fortress”—was absolute. As Soviet forces neared the capital, he remained convinced that a miracle might still turn the tide. To his inner circle, this delusion became apparent. His judgment was clouded, and the once-great military genius was now a desperate and isolated dictator. He ordered that Berlin be fortified, even though it was clear that the city’s defenses were insufficient against the overwhelming Soviet force.
