    "Politics: A Treatise on Government" is a classic work of political philosophy written by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. The book is one of the most influential works in the history of political thought and is widely regarded as one of the foundational texts of Western political theory. 
    In "Politics", Aristotle sets out to examine the nature of political communities and to provide a systematic analysis of different forms of government. He discusses the virtues and vices of various political systems, including democracy, oligarchy, and tyranny, and he explores the idea of the ideal state and how it might be achieved. 
    The book is organized into eight books, each of which covers a different topic related to political theory. These topics include the nature of political communities, the role of the individual in society, the different forms of government, the relationship between the ruler and the ruled, the importance of law and justice, and the role of education in the formation of citizens. 
    Aristotle's approach is characterized by a deep concern for the practical problems of politics and a belief that the best form of government is one that is grounded in the virtues of its citizens. He also emphasizes the importance of the rule of law, the separation of powers, and the need for checks and balances in order to prevent the abuse of power. 
    Overall, "Politics" is a complex and nuanced work of political philosophy that remains relevant and influential today. It continues to be studied and debated by scholars and politicians alike, and its ideas have played a significant role in the development of Western political thought.

    Jason remembers Colonel Bartholomew as a loudmouthed bigot and a drunk. Now the Colonel's been found dead with a knife in his back, and the Texas police think someone in Jason's family killed him. Jason Crow, double amputee and Vietnam War vet, has good reason to dislike the retired officer who bad-mouthed Jason's father and his African American business partner. But when Bartholomew calls late one night with a mysterious request that Jason come by his house, then turns up dead, Jason has to set his feelings aside. Clyde Burker, his old police nemesis and now head of the homicide division, doesn't want Jason meddling in yet another murder investigation, but Jason won't stay on the sidelines when Burker points a finger at Jason's own loved ones. As pieces of the truth begin to fall into place, Jason may well hold the key to unlocking the dangerous puzzle. CROW'S FEAT is the second book in Ken Casper's Jason Crow West Texas Mystery Series, giving readers another glimpse into the world of one of mystery fiction's most intriguing and unique crime solvers.

    What if the artist wasn’t a master of his craft—but a mouthpiece for something divine? 
    In Ion, Plato explores the nature of poetic inspiration in a lively exchange between Socrates and the rhapsode Ion. Ion claims mastery over Homer’s verses, but Socrates questions whether such talent comes from knowledge or from divine possession. 
    This modern translation brings Plato’s insight into the modern era, opening a timeless discussion about where creativity truly comes from—and what that means for artists, performers, and thinkers alike. 
    What you'll discover inside: 
    •	The Origins of Artistic Inspiration – Explore Plato’s view of creativity as divine madness 
    •	Socrates’ Challenge to Poetic Pride – Ion’s mastery is questioned by reason itself 
    •	Art, Prophecy, and the Irrational – Connect poetry to prophecy and the mysteries of the human mind 
    •	A Modern, Engaging Translation – Clear and accessible, with Plato’s irony and brilliance intact 
    Whether you’re a poet, philosopher, or curious mind, Ion will challenge how you understand genius—and where it comes from.

    Body Art - The Ultimate Form Of...

    I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable. 
    It could easily be argued that body art is more popular than at any time in history. In days long gone by, sailors were the most heavily tattooed sector of society, but for decades now, that sector is the youth, which is a larger group than those who put to sea. 
    Not only has actual tattooing found a wider demographic, but technology has expanded the methods that can be employed to enhance our bodies. Nowadays, for example, you can get a fake tattoo that will last a couple of days for a special event. In a similar vein, women can be body-painted and the casual observer would be forgiven for not seeing a naked lady. 
    This doesn’t work so well for men, for obvious reasons! 
    You can also get fake tans, hair dyes, and nail varnishes that can easily be applied at home. There are also teeth whitening, cheap wigs, and coloured contact lenses available. Not to mention cheap sunglasses and fake glasses of numerous kinds. 
    The ultimate form of body art is plastic surgery. Many ordinary people aspire to plastic cut, tucks and nips these days – it is not only the privilege of the rich and famous. In fact, some countries, like Thailand, offer holidays that include plastic surgery (and other forms), so that your friends will hardly recognise when you return from a month’s holiday! 
    In fact, with all the options for body art available on a typical Western high street, no-one need look the same two days running! 
    The information in this ebook on various aspects of body art and related subjects, such as piercing, body painting and tattoos, is organized into 18 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
    I hope that it will interest those who like to write a diary and blog, or would like to, plus webmasters who need content for their online publications.
