Synopsis

Cruelty does not exist as a distant or abstract force, somehow detached from the daily lives of human beings. On the contrary, cruelty resides quietly within each individual, hidden beneath the polished masks people wear and cleverly concealed behind noble emotions, pleasant words, and seemingly good intentions.
 
In his groundbreaking book, The Anatomy of Cruelty: The Darkest Things Humans Do and Why They Do, the author boldly ventures into these shadowy realms and systematically uncovers the psychological roots that underlie human behavior. With remarkable honesty and thoroughness, he reveals the subtle presence of cruelty in betrayal, manipulation, abandonment, lies, and numerous invisible crimes politely disguised by charming smiles and socially acceptable behavior.
 
Unlike other works that simply compile dark examples from the fringes of humanity, this book presents cruelty as something innate and ever-present in all individuals-a driving force fueled by fear, selfishness, insecurity, and an unconscious desire for dominance and power. Drawing on personal stories as well as genuine introspection and self-awareness, the author deftly demonstrates the reality of cruelty even within the closest, most intimate relationships-relationships that can unexpectedly shift from trust and kindness to pain, betrayal, and exploitation.
 
Yet an extraordinary paradox emerges from this courageous and honest journey: by deeply understanding and openly acknowledging the roots of cruelty, readers are not overwhelmed by despair, but find clarity, strength, and liberation. True wisdom, courage, and honesty diminish the influence of cruelty and transform personal wounds into sources of resilience, empowerment, and profound insight.
 
Written in direct, powerful, and accessible language, The Anatomy of Cruelty invites readers everywhere to courageously explore their inner world, honestly reflect on uncomfortable truths in their souls, and confront the hidden darkness that resides within all human beings. Those readers who willingly embark on this journey can ultimately achieve authentic personal power and experience true freedom - finally able to rise above illusion and transformed by a deep, powerful understanding of themselves and the world around them.

    How did medieval Africa impact the direction of the Middle Ages internationally? 
    When most people think about the Middle Ages, they think about Europe. Images of knights, jousting, and even Christianity seem ingrained in our understanding of the medieval era. However, the Middle Ages stretched far beyond Europe, which was struggling to rebuild after the fall of the Roman Empire. Europe may have fumbled along for about a thousand years, but Africa became a powerhouse of trade and wealth. 
    For years, many scholars have ignored medieval Africa. There aren’t many written documents from the African kingdoms, so historians rely on outside sources and archeology. Many people don’t realize Africa was brimming with innovation during this time or that it was connected to the outside world. Although historians don’t know everything about this period of African history, medieval Africa has not been lost to time. We still have so much to learn about this era and how it changed the world. 
    It’s time to set out on a journey to discover the empires and people who made medieval Africa so influential. In this new and captivating audiobook, you’ll learn how medieval Africa held its power and changed the world, impacting us today. 
    Here are some of the questions you will discover within this audiobook:Was Mansa Musa I really the wealthiest person in world history?Why wasn’t the Ghana Empire close to modern Ghana?How did Islam come to Africa?Are any of the medieval empires still here today?How did the African kingdoms react to the slave trade?Why were the Portuguese important to the Benin Empire?How did Timbuktu become a center for trade and learning?Why did the Kingdom of Abyssinia adopt Christianity instead of Islam?

    Efficient and excellent writing relies on one crucial pillar: note-taking. This skill is often underdeveloped or totally missing in writers, whether they are professionals or students. In How to Take Smart Notes (2017), Sönke Ahrens details the slip-box note-taking method known as the Zettelkasten. This technique, adapted to both written and digital notes, shifts the focus from memorization and searching for notes to developing ideas through the note-taking and writing process, which becomes part of the thought process. The slip-box system allows writers to easily store and retrieve relevant notes while enhancing their creativity in finding topics to tackle.

    What does it mean to really see the world around you—to bear witness? And what does it cost us, both to see and not to see? 
     
    In these ten stories, each set in the changing landscapes of contemporary New York City, a range of characters—from children to grandmothers to ghosts—live through the responsibility of perceiving and the moral challenge of speaking up or taking action. Though they strive to  
    connect with, stand up for, care for, and remember one another, they often fall short, and the structures they build around these ambitions and failures shape their futures as well as the legacies and prospects of their communities and their city. 
     
    In its portraits of families and friendships lost and found, the paradox of intimacy, the long shadow of grief, and the meaning of home, Witness enacts its own testimony. Here is a world where fortunes can be made and stolen in just a few generations, where strangers might sometimes  
    show kindness while those we trust—doctors, employers, siblings—too often turn away, where joy comes in snatches: flowers on a windowsill, dancing in the street, glimpsing your purpose, change on the horizon. 
     
    With prose as upendingly beautiful as it is artfully, seamlessly crafted, Jamel Brinkley offers nothing less than the full scope of life and death and change in the great, unending drama of the city.
