  This combo of 3 in 1 books consists of the following topics: 
  Anglo-Saxons: In the Early Middle Ages, the Anglo-Saxons were a cultural group that resided in England. They traced their roots back to the arrival of incomers to Britain in the fifth century, who originated from the North Sea coastlands of continental Europe. The ethnogenesis of the Anglo-Saxons, on the other hand, happened in Britain, and the identity wasn't just imported. The contact between getting in groups of people from some Germanic tribe, both amongst themselves and with native British populations, led to the facility of an Anglo-Saxon identity. A lot of the native tribes ultimately incorporated and embraced Anglo-Saxon society and language. 
  Viking History: We all have a typical image of Vikings, from the horns on their helmets to the beards and the clothes they wear. Their ships have a certain charm, and their reputation is that they were brutal, raw, and believed in multiple gods. The Vikings traveled during the Mediterranean, North Africa, the Middle East, and The U.S.A. And Canada. That period is acknowledged as the Viking Age in parts of the countries where they robbed and settled, and the name "Viking" is also used to describe the population of the Scandinavian homelands as a whole. The early middle ages history of Scandinavia, the British Isles, France, Estonia, and Kievan Rus' was exceptionally impacted by the Vikings. 
  Inquisition: Perhaps you have heard of the horrible stories of the Spanish, Portuguese, or French inquisition, the Catholic body of persecutors who would arrest the supposed “heathens” and accuse them of witchcraft, heresies, blasphemy, adultery, and a whole list of other sins or crimes. Torture, interrogations, executions, burnings, and other inhumane methods were used to then force, coerce, or kill the victims of this Catholic organization within the church at the time.

  INSIDE THE CRIMINAL 'S MINDHave you ever questioned how a devoted mother could deliberately and coldly take the life of her own child in the bathtub—the very child for whom she had just prepared breakfast? What dark forces could have been at work within her mind at that moment? How did such thoughts take hold? Were they embedded deep within her psyche long before the act?What compels individuals to cross the most sacred moral boundaries? What hidden patterns emerge within their minds? What common traits do they share?For decades, scholars and scientists have sought to determine whether criminal behavior is the product of genetic inheritance or the consequence of environmental and social influences.In this compelling examination of the criminal psyche, Inside the Criminal’s Mind ventures beyond the headlines, delving into the neurological and psychological forces that drive some of history’s most notorious offenders—such as Andrea Yates, Jeffrey Epstein, and John Wayne Gacy. This work dissects the minds of those who defy humanity’s most fundamental moral codes. Through the advanced study of neuroscience and psychology, we expose the structural anomalies and chemical imbalances within the brain that may underlie their actions. Pioneering research on the role of genetics—initiated by Cesare Lombroso in the late 19th century—laid the foundation for understanding how inherited traits might predispose individuals to criminal behavior and how such tendencies might one day be identified, or even prevented.Inside the Criminal’s Mind offers clear, research-based insights into these unsettling questions. Within these pages, you may come to realize that the seemingly ordinary neighbor next door is far more complex—and perhaps far more dangerous—than you ever imagined.

  The Inside Story of Ireland's Pandemic: Every Decision, Every Player, Every Text, Every Leak
  Ireland's lockdowns were among the harshest and longest in Europe. As the state was battered by waves of disease time and again, unparalleled pressures and untold tensions emerged as the country went to war with Covid, and policymakers and politicians did battle with each other.
  How were the key decisions made? Who held all the power?
  Boasting unrivalled access to the key decision-makers and drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews and thousands of pages of documents, including confidential and unpublished material, Pandemonium reveals the moves, the power-plays and the – at times jaw-dropping – tactics of a government with the health of a nation in its hands.
  'If a movie is ever made of how Ireland responded to the Covid-19 pandemic, Pandemonium may well provide the script … You will feel as if you were in the room when key conversations happened and decisions were made.' Professor Luke O'Neill
  'Illuminates the corners of institutions usually able to operate in the dark' Fintan O'Toole
  'A page-turner … an exceptional insight' Matt Cooper
  'Unflinching and unrelenting' Dearbhail McDonald
