  Book Summary: Confronting Evil by Bill O’Reilly and Josh Hammer 
   Assessing the Worst of the Worst 
  What drives human beings to commit acts of unspeakable cruelty—and what separates those who resist evil from those who enable it? In Confronting Evil, Bill O’Reilly and Josh Hammer examine history’s darkest figures to reveal the moral choices that define humanity’s ongoing battle between good and evil. 
  This summary explores the key ideas and insights behind O’Reilly and Hammer’s chilling yet thought-provoking analysis of tyrants, conquerors, and criminals—from Genghis Khan and Caligula to Hitler, Stalin, and modern-day despots. Through their stories, the book sheds light on the psychology of power, corruption, and the devastating cost of moral indifference. 
  With clarity and depth, this companion guide distills the authors’ central message: evil persists not only because of those who commit it, but because too many good people look away. 
  Disclaimer: This is an unofficial summary and analysis of Confronting Evil by Bill O’Reilly and Josh Hammer. It is intended to provide educational value and enhance understanding of the original work.

  The German Way of War - A Lesson...

  The German Army lost two consecutive wars and the conclusion is often drawn that it simply wasn't able to cope with its opponents. This image is constantly reinforced in literature and in the media, where seemingly brainless operating German units led by fanatical officers predominate. Nothing was as far from the truth. The records show that the Germans consistently outfought the far more numerous Allied armies that eventually defeated them: their relative battlefield performance was at least 1.5 and in most cases three times as high as that of its opponents. 
   
   
   
  The central question in this book is why the German Army had a so much higher relative battlefield performance than the opposition. A central element within the Prussian/German Army is Auftragstaktik, a tactical management concept that dates from the middle of the nineteenth century and is still very advanced in terms of management and organization. 
   
   
   
  Using more than fifty examples to illustrate the realities of the battlefield, the author explains why the Prussian/German Army was such an unprecedented powerful fighting force. And why Auftragstaktik—under other guises—is still the basic form of operation for many European armies, with even the US Army introducing certain elements of Auftragstaktik into its organization, more than 150 years after its conception.

  Jeremiah (c. 650 - c. 570 BC), also called the "weeping prophet", was one of the major prophets of the Hebrew Bible. According to Jewish tradition, Jeremiah authored the Book of Jeremiah, the Books of Kings and the Book of Lamentations, with the assistance and under the editorship of Baruch ben Neriah, his scribe and disciple. In addition to proclaiming many prophecies of Yahweh, the God of Israel, the Book of Jeremiah goes into detail regarding the prophet's private life, his experiences, and his imprisonment. Judaism and Christianity both consider the Book of Jeremiah part of their canon. Judaism regards Jeremiah as the second of the major prophets. Christianity holds him to be a prophet and his words are quoted in the New Testament. Islam also regards Jeremiah as a prophet and his narrative is recounted in Islamic tradition.

  As You Like It and A Midsummer Night' s Dream are two comedies by William Shakespeare that have been entertaining audiences for centuries. Both have been adapted to radio and film and continue to be taught in high schools and universities. But as with most of Shakespeare' s works, modern audiences sometimes need some help absorbing elements of both plays.
  In a series of lectures, literary scholar Elizabeth McNamer provides engaging insights into these two Shakespeare classics. Dr. McNamer begins with a focus on the love story of Orlando and Rosalind and how As You Like It spoofs conventional literary themes of love. McNamer then focuses on the themes of jealousy, imagination, patriarchy, and the many difficulties of love in A Midsummer Night' s Dream. While these lectures are grounded in scholarly research, they are also accessible for contemporary audiences, helping them appreciate more fully these two great theatrical works.

  VOLUME 3 OF KAT WARD'S SENSATIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY! 
  in this much-anticipated third volume, Kat recounts her early-mid teen years. Still traumatised by her early experiences, she was however not entirely without that sense of hope that is the inalienable property of youth. 
  Now at Duncroft Approved School for “emotionally disturbed girls”, her life had come to resemble that of a prisoner; a good day was a bad one and a bad day was horrific. A pattern interrupted only by the periodic visits of a certain creepy old man in a shiny tracksuit, with a pocket full of a cigars and a caravan full of demands. 
  There were Rolls-Royce trips to London. There were jaunts to TV studios. And, of course, for Kat, as with most of the girls, there were dreams of a brighter future. But despite all the promises, there was simply no way out. For at almost every turn, another nefarious character was waiting to take advantage of the girls that no-one would believe anyway. 
  Now you can read her full story here. No punches pulled; no stone left unturned. Just the truth, committed to paper over many years, in the hope that it might help inspire the brave, enlighten the misled and heal the abused…
