Summary

Bread Baking Roots explores the fascinating culinary history of flatbread, revealing its pivotal role in ancient civilizations and its enduring importance in family traditions. From the Neolithic Revolution, which enabled grain cultivation, to its central place in Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Levantine societies, flatbread wasn't just food. It was a cultural touchstone, deeply embedded in rituals and daily life. The book uniquely positions flatbread as a tangible link connecting modern families to their ancestral past, demonstrating how it evolved from basic sustenance to a powerful symbol of heritage and love.

 
The book delves into archaeological findings, ancient texts, and ethnographic studies to uncover flatbread's story. Did you know that analyzing ancient grains and art provides insights into early baking techniques? Or that comparative studies of flatbread recipes reveal cross-cultural connections?

 
Organized into three parts, the book begins by introducing flatbread as a cultural artifact, then examines specific ancient cultures and their baking traditions, and concludes by showcasing flatbread's continuing role in families worldwide through case studies and personal narratives. Bread Baking Roots adopts a narrative non-fiction style, blending scholarly research with engaging storytelling. By connecting archaeology, anthropology, and sociology, the book illuminates how food shapes identity and fosters community. It demonstrates how a simple food connects us to ancient cultures and our own family's cultural heritage.

    Future Esoteric - The Unseen Realms

    Things are not always as they appear. For the past century forbidden subjects such as UFOs, human abductions, secret space programs, suppressed free energy devices and other fantastic notions have tested the human mind, forcing it to decipher fact from fiction. But is there a common thread? As sites like WikiLeaks and their founders try to unveil war secrets and covert black operations, international governments have little-by-little begun exposing what they've tried for years to keep hidden. Chronicling what he calls the "alternative narrative," Brad Olsen gets down to the middle of it all.
    
    
     Organized into three sections (Secrets, Cosmos and Utopia), Future Esoteric: the Unseen Realms by Ancient Aliens guest Brad Olsen (CCC Publishing, April 2016) examines the flaws in modern history and looks at how ancient esoteric teachings, coupled with accelerated scientific advancements, can be used to help change the dead-end course we humans are running ourselves into. Looking at several alternate paradigms, whether they deal with crop circles, immigrant Nazi leaders to the United States after WWII, or out-of-this-world creatures like Grey aliens, Olsen comes to the conclusion that we have been among the supernatural for centuries; these creatures and advanced military technology have been used as experiments, but this potentially world-changing info has beed denied to the masses for the purpose of control.
    
    
     Through exploration and the integration of cutting-edge science with ancient wisdom, Olsen believes the dawn of our new society is faced on the one hand with global tyranny, or we can overcome the oppression and advance towards universal abundance and enlightenment. Without government and media manipulation this can be possible, and the Golden Age will be attained with the rapid advancement of human consciousness.

    A rich and engaging guide to psychology, the science devoted to understanding human nature 
     
     
      
    What really drives our decisions? Where do language and memory come from? Why do our minds sometimes seem to work against us? Psychologists have long attempted to answer these questions, seeking to understand human behavior, feelings, and thoughts. But how to explore something so elusive? 
     
     
      
    In this fascinating history, leading expert Nicky Hayes tells the story of psychology across the centuries and around the world. Hayes introduces key thinkers, including Carl Jung, Anna Freud, Frantz Fanon, and Daniel Kahneman. We see how they tried to expand our understanding, from Pavlov and his dogs to Milgram and his famous electric shock experiments to the CIA's secret mind-control projects. Hayes explores key concepts like child development, the inferiority complex, and PTSD and shows how psychological research has been used for both good and ill. 
     
     
      
    This Little History shines a light on the ever-advancing study of psychology, how the field has evolved over time—and how much more we need to learn.
