    "Three Contributions to the Theory of Sex" is a seminal work by Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis. Originally published in 1905 as "Drei Abhandlungen zur Sexualtheorie," this book presents Freud's groundbreaking theories on human sexuality. In it, Freud explores the development of sexual instincts from infancy through adulthood, examining the role of unconscious desires, repression, and the Oedipus complex in shaping sexual behavior. He delves into topics such as infantile sexuality, the nature of sexual aberrations, and the psychological underpinnings of sexual identity. This work laid the foundation for much of Freudian psychoanalytic theory and continues to influence discussions on sexuality and psychology.

    Social media has become an inseparable part of modern life. What started as a way to connect with friends and share moments has evolved into a global phenomenon that influences how we think, feel, and behave. Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter are no longer just tools for communication—they are powerful forces shaping our identities, relationships, and daily habits. While social media offers many benefits, including instant access to information, networking opportunities, and entertainment, its darker side often goes unnoticed. The reality is that millions of people around the world are unknowingly trapped in an endless cycle of scrolling, liking, and seeking validation.  
      
    The term "social media addiction" might sound extreme, but it is a growing concern among psychologists, neuroscientists, and everyday users who find themselves unable to put their phones down. Unlike traditional addictions to substances like alcohol or drugs, social media addiction operates in a subtler yet equally powerful way. It hijacks the brain’s reward system, triggering dopamine releases that keep users engaged for hours on end. Every notification, like, or comment acts as a small hit of pleasure, reinforcing compulsive behavior. Over time, this leads to dependency, making it difficult for individuals to disconnect even when they recognize the negative impact on their mental health, relationships, and productivity.  
      
    This book explores the shocking truth about social media addiction, diving deep into the science behind it, its effects on our well-being, and what we can do to regain control. From the psychological tricks used by tech companies to keep us engaged to the rising concerns about mental health, self-esteem, and attention spans, each chapter sheds light on an issue that affects people of all ages.

    The late twelfth century. Japan stands on a precipice. The once-glorious Heian era fades, its refined courtly culture overshadowed by the burgeoning power of the warrior class. At the zenith of this new order stands the Taira clan, their crimson banners a symbol of absolute authority under the formidable, yet increasingly tyrannical, Taira no Kiyomori. His ambition knows no bounds, culminating in the manipulation of the Imperial succession – an act of sacrilege that plunges a nation into the abyss of civil war. 
    From the embers of past defeats, the Minamoto clan, the Genji, stirs. Minamoto no Yoritomo, an exile for two decades, his spirit tempered by hardship and a burning desire for retribution, receives a desperate call to arms from a wronged Imperial Prince. Cautious, calculating, and possessed of an unshakeable will, Yoritomo begins to weave a web of alliances in the Kanto, his stronghold of Kamakura destined to become the heart of a new warrior government. 
    "When Emperors Wept: The First Shogun's War" sweeps readers into the heart of the Genpei War, a five-year epic of ambition, honor, loyalty, and devastating betrayal. It is a story of towering personalities – the ruthless Kiyomori, the calculating Yoritomo, the tragic hero Yoshitsune, the indomitable warrior-monk Benkei, and the astute Hōjō Masako. Witness the fall of one age and the violent birth of another, as the
