  The Berlin Wall - Its Beginnings...

  From 1961 until 1989, the Berlin Wall stood as a stark symbol of division, not only physically separating the city of Berlin but also representing the broader ideological rift between the East and the West during the Cold War. On August 13, 1961, the German Democratic Republic (GDR), or East Germany, began constructing this formidable barrier. The Wall effectively cut off West Berlin from the rest of East Germany, including East Berlin, solidifying the physical and ideological separation between the communist East and the capitalist West. 
  The structure itself was much more than just a wall; it was an elaborate system of fortifications. It included massive concrete walls, watchtowers, and a wide expanse known as the "death strip." This zone was equipped with anti-vehicle trenches, barbed wire, and other brutal defenses to prevent East Germans from escaping to the West. The Berlin Wall was not merely a barrier for the sake of separation; it was a powerful representation of the GDR's fear of its citizens escaping the supposedly superior socialist state.

  News and Democratic Citizens in...

  Johanna Dunaway, Kathleen Searles

  Though people frequently use mobile technologies for news consumption, evidence from several fields shows that smaller screens and slower connection speeds pose major limitations for meaningful reading. In News and Democratic Citizens in the Mobile Era, Johanna Dunaway and Kathleen Searles demonstrate the effects of mobile devices on news attention, engagement, and recall, and identify a key cognitive mechanism underlying these effects: cognitive effort. They advance a theory that is both old and new: the costs of information-seeking curb participatory behaviors unless the benefits outweigh them. For news consumers in the mobile era, for example, mobile devices increase the time, economic, and cognitive costs associated with information-seeking. Only for a small few do the benefits of attending to the news on mobile devices outweigh the costs. 
   
   
   
  Dunaway and Searles argue that attention, engagement, and recall suffer when people consume news on mobile devices. They then investigate the implications of these effects for the news industry and for an informed democratic citizenry. Drawing on both laboratory and real-world studies, Dunaway and Searles bring the psychophysiology of news consumption to bear on the question of what we could lose in an information environment characterized by a dramatic shift in reliance on mobile devices.

  "He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee."
   
  Expanding on his ideas from Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche's radical polemic Beyond Good and Evil undermines the assumptions of traditional morality and encourages us to think more critically about the world in which we live.
   
  In this famous text, Nietzsche considers past philosophers and religious leaders from Socrates to Descartes to Schopenhauer with a critical and pessimistic eye. Questioning the blind following of religious faith, he examines the deeper question of who is truly good or evil.
   
  Beyond Good and Evil presents a unique perspective of the human mind offered through the words of one of history's most controversial philosophers.
