Beschreibung

Assyrian Cities explores how urban centers in the Assyrian Empire served as strategic tools for imperial power, cultural expression, and innovation. The book examines the architectural history of cities like Nineveh, Assur, and Nimrud, revealing advanced urban planning and construction techniques. These ancient Mesopotamian cities were not just residential areas; their design reflected a sophisticated understanding of irrigation, defense, and social hierarchy. The book argues that the layout and infrastructure of Assyrian cities directly supported the empire's centralized authority and expansionist goals. By studying palaces, temples, and administrative buildings, one gains insight into the empire's social order and governance. The book progresses thematically, first introducing the materials and techniques used in construction, then exploring the social and political dimensions of urban life, and finally analyzing the legacy of Assyrian urbanism on subsequent civilizations in the Ancient Near East.

    Aftermath of World War II The:...

    At the end of World War II, the world was faced with some sobering statistics. With over 50,000,000 deaths when both military and civilian losses had been accounted for, the death toll was devastating, and for many of those who lived in countries that had been ravaged by war, hunger and financial strain had become parts of daily life. Furthermore, beyond the physical damage was the growing knowledge of the atrocities that had been committed both before and during the war. In fact, the Allies were discussing how to dole out justice for Axis war crimes as early as 1943, and once the war was over, it was time for the nations to turn their attention towards determining the proper punishments.  
    	In the wake of the war, the European continent was devastated, and the conflict left the Soviet Union and the United States as uncontested superpowers. This ushered in over 45 years of Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting, even as the American and Soviet militaries never engaged each other. Though it never truly got “hot” between the two superpowers directly, the Cold War was a tense era until the dissolution of the USSR, and nothing symbolized the split more than the division of Berlin.  
    	If anyone wondered whether the Cold War would dominate geopolitics, any hopes that it wouldn’t were dashed by the Soviets’ blockade of West Berlin in April 1948, ostensibly to protest the currency being used in West Berlin but unquestionably aiming to extend their control over Germany’s capital. By cutting off all access via roads, rail, and water, the Soviets hoped to force the Allies out, and at the same time, Stalin’s action would force a tense showdown that would test their mettle.

    In this 2024 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Dr. Orloff suggests that empathy is a bedrock of healing in difficult situations and needs to be a daily priority and become a habit, not just a fleeting desire. She also has cautions and advice for us: can we have too much empathy? How to work with those who, on the empathy spectrum, have an empathy deficient disorder such as narcissists? Empathy, she says, will lead us in expressing our most authentic, fierce, and compassionate self, and that we must have empathy for our survival personally, our happiness, our intimacy, our connections to others, and also for the earth and the world. She points out that studies have shown that acts of empathy can have positive effects on our immune response.  
    Judith Orloff, M.D. is a member of the UCLA Psychiatric Clinical Staff and specializes in treating empaths and sensitive people in her private practice. She offers Empathy Training Programs to businesses and organizations and teaches empathic tools to doctors, corporate teams, leaders, managers, customer service and trainers, as well as individuals. She has been called the “godmother of the empath movement." She is the author of:The Ecstasy of Surrender: 12 Surprising Ways Letting Go Can Empower Your Life (Harmony books 2014)Emotional Freedom: Liberate Yourself from Negative Emotions and Transform Your Life (Harmony Books 2009)The Empath's Survival Guide: Life Strategies for Sensitive People (Sounds True 2017)The Genius of Empathy: Practical Skills to Heal Your Sensitive Self, Your Relationships & the World (Sounds True 2024)

    The most famous and important book on politics ever written 
     
    The Prince remains as lively and shocking today as when it was written almost five hundred years ago. Initially denounced as a collection of sinister maxims and a recommendation of tyranny, it has more recently been defended as the first scientific treatment of politics as it is practiced rather than as it ought to be practiced. Harvey C. Mansfield's brilliant translation of this classic work, along with the new materials added for this edition, make it the definitive version of The Prince, indispensable to scholars, students, and those interested in the dark art of politics. 
     
    This revised edition of Mansfield's acclaimed translation features an updated introduction, a chronology of Machiavelli's life, and notes. 
     
    "Of the other available [translations], that of Harvey C. Mansfield makes the necessary compromises between exactness and readability, as well as providing an excellent introduction and notes."—Clifford Orwin, The Wall Street Journal 
     
    "Mansfield's work . . . is worth acquiring as the best combination of accuracy and readability."—Choice 
     
    "There is good reason to assert that Machiavelli has met his match in Mansfield. . . . [He] is ready to read Machiavelli as he demands to be read—plainly and boldly, but also cautiously."—John Gueguen, The Sixteenth Century Journal 
     
    This audiobook is expertly read and engineered by Peter Coates. It was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
