    Hidden History of Texas 1836 –...

    The Texans have defeated Santa Anna at San Jacinto and now start the process of establishing an identify for themselves. First as a Republic and then as a new state and part of the United States. 
 
This was a chaotic time in Texas history. There was infighting among the leaders, violent and bloody clashes with the native peoples, distrust of the Mexican population, and a lust for power among the new Anglo immigrants. This book covers the policies of one of the great Texas political leaders Sam Houston and one of the most power-hungry leaders in Texas history Mirabeau B. Lamar. 
 
Topics include a look at the Comanche, Apache, Kiowa, and Cherokee peoples, how they lived and how they were affected by this new country. I also take a preliminary look at a group who is, depending on your point of view, either famous heroes or infamous villains, Los Diablos Tejanos, AKA, the Texas Rangers. I talk about how Texas was formed into an actual independent nation, and I look at exactly how Texas finally ended up being annexed by the United States not as a territory but rather as a state.

    Modern medicine should make pregnancy and childbirth safer for all. But in Birth Control, award-winning journalist Allison Yarrow reveals how women are controlled, traumatized, injured, and even killed because of the traditionalist practices of medical professionals and hospitals. 
 
 
 
Ever since doctors stole control of birth from midwives in the nineteenth century, women have been steamrolled by a male-dominated medical establishment that has everyone convinced that birthing bodies are inherently flawed and that every pregnancy is a crisis that it alone can "solve." Misogyny and racism, not scientific evidence and support, shape the overwhelming majority of America's four million annual births. 
 
 
 
Drawing on extensive reporting, expert interviews, an original survey of 1,300 mothers, and her own personal experiences, Yarrow documents how modern maternal health care is insidiously, purposefully designed to take power from women to the detriment of their physical and mental health—not just during labor, but for years after. She then shows a better way, exploring solutions both cutting-edge and ancient to—finally—return power and control to birthing people.

    Neurology - Understanding Brain...

    The human brain is often described as the most intricate and remarkable organ in the known universe. It serves as the control center for every thought, emotion, movement, and sensation we experience, seamlessly integrating billions of neural connections to create the essence of who we are. Despite centuries of scientific inquiry, the brain remains a profound mystery—an organ that not only governs our basic survival but also fuels creativity, innovation, and the very consciousness that allows us to ponder its complexity. 
What makes the brain so fascinating is its duality: it is both fragile and resilient, capable of extraordinary feats yet vulnerable to a wide range of disorders. Its 86 billion neurons form networks that enable everything from the rhythmic beating of the heart to the abstract contemplation of art, philosophy, and science. This complexity has driven countless researchers to explore its depths, seeking to understand how such a compact structure can hold the vastness of human thought, memory, and emotion. 
Throughout history, our understanding of the brain has evolved dramatically. Early civilizations believed that the heart was the seat of intelligence, while the brain was considered secondary. It wasn’t until the work of ancient scholars like Hippocrates and later neurologists such as Thomas Willis and Santiago Ramón y Cajal that the brain was recognized as the epicenter of human experience. Today, advanced imaging technologies allow us to observe the brain in action, mapping areas responsible for speech, movement, and even complex emotions. Yet, for all our progress, we have only begun to scratch the surface of its potential.

    "The unexamined life is not worth living," according to Socrates, but pursuing the examined life strikes many as daunting, unappealing and even unnecessary. Is philosophy important? Why do I need philosophy if I have the Bible? Aren't philosophers simply engaged in meaningless disputes that are irrelevant to everyday life? 
 
 
 
Mark Foreman addresses these and other questions in this "prelude" to the subject. Unlike a full introduction to philosophy, this book is a preliminary discussion that dispels misunderstandings and explains the rationale for engaging in philosophical reasoning. 
 
 
 
In the first half of the book, Foreman defines the task of philosophy, compares it to other disciplines and demonstrates its practical value to Christians interested in developing a more thoughtful faith. The second half introduces the listener to logic and argumentation, the essential tools of a philosopher. Concise and straightforward, Prelude to Philosophy is a guide for those looking to embark on the "examined life."
