  "Prisoners of Hate offers a profound analysis of a most pressing human challenge: the causes—and prevention—of hatred. Of the many important books Aaron Beck has written, this may be his greatest gift to humanity." —Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional IntelligenceWorld-renowned psychiatrist Dr. Aaron T. Beck has always been at the forefront of cognitive therapy research, his approach being the most rapidly growing psychotherapy today. In his most important work to date, the widely hailed father of cognitive therapy presents a revolutionary look at destructive behavior—from domestic abuse to genocide to war—and provides a solid framework for remedying these crucial problems. In this book, Dr. Beck:Illustrates the specific psychological aberrations underlying anger, interpersonal hostility, ethnic conflict, genocide, and war;Clarifies why perpetrators of evil deeds are motivated by a belief that they are doing good;Explains how the offenders are locked into distorted belief systems that control their behavior and shows how the same distortions in thinking occur in a rampaging mob as in an enraged spouse;Provides a blueprint for correcting warped thinking and belief systems and, consequently, undercutting various forms of hostility; andDiscusses how the individual and society as a whole might use the tools of psychotherapy to block the psychological pathways to war, genocide, rape, and murder.

  This book consists of two titles, which are the following: 
    
  Book 1: Are there sociopaths in your life? You bet! You may not recognize them, or they may not be serial killers. Perhaps they are not causing any trouble at all. But to know what to look for, is pretty important, if you ask me. It’s interesting that some people just don’t have that much of a conscience. And every person chooses how to deal with that differently. It can reflect on their actions in different ways. 
    
  Moreover, sociopaths typically abuse the conscience of others by manipulating them with guilt-trips, blackmail, and other secret techniques. Psychopaths are similar, but they are not the same. We will discuss that too. Other topics in this book include why many male sociopaths objectify women, the motivations of a sociopath, and the three steps for identifying one. 
    
    
    
    
  Book 2: Are narcissists sociopaths?  
    
  And if they are different, then can someone be both? 
    
  These and many other questions will be answered in this guide. You will learn, on top of that, how parents can struggle with sociopathic kids and how you can do better. You will also learn about the American culture and why sociopaths are generally liked by the masses (trust me, it’s true… I’ve seen it over and over again: Fake wins over the truth in a culture driven by emotion, drama, and glamour. Last but not least, you will acquire more knowledge about the fundamental differences and overlaps between narcissists and sociopaths, so you don’t have to be like so many other people who toss those terms around like a wet diaper.

  World's Greatest Airshows

  Air shows are one of the world's most popular, non - sporting outdoor attractions. Although the story of flight is over 100 years old, aircraft still hold a fascination for young and old, men and women from all backgrounds. Indeed, the first air show was held when aircraft and aviation was still in its infancy in the 1900s. Since then aviation has progressed in the full glare of the public gaze.
  Some air shows are held as a business venture or as a trade event where aircraft, avionics and other services are promoted to potential customers. Many air shows are held in support of local, national or military charities. Military air services often organise air shows at military airfields as a public relations exercise to thank the local community, promote military careers and raise the profile of the military.
  In this book, we cover the different types of air show and more importantly, the displays that make air shows memorable. For some it is the noise and speed of the latest military jets, for others, extraordinary aerobatics that seem to defy the laws of physics. There are also the displays of classic aircraft and warbirds as well as dramatic reconstructions of how aircraft are deployed.
  What is clear is how far aviation has come but questions persist in how much farther it can go?
