Sinopse

Damascus Markets explores the pivotal role of Damascus's commercial centers in shaping global trade and cultural exchange. For centuries, these markets acted as vital engines, influencing not only the flow of goods and capital but also the spread of ideas across continents. The book reconstructs the economic history of these markets, highlighting their evolution along the Silk Road and within Islamic empires, and examines their influence on the interaction of diverse cultures.

 
The book argues that Damascus markets were active agents in shaping global landscapes. For example, the exchange of commodities spurred innovation and fostered interconnectedness. Part one introduces the geographical and economic context, part two details the roles within the markets, and part three explores the markets' impact on cultural exchange.

 
By challenging Eurocentric views of globalization and using interdisciplinary methodologies, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of these markets' significance. It highlights how these hubs facilitated the diffusion of customs and artistic styles, leaving an enduring legacy on global trade and cultural exchange.

David Jenkins

Do you spend most of your nights staring at the ceiling and wake up with no energy? If yes, this is the right audio-book for you.
Hypnosis is a technique that can be used to promote better sleep by inducing a state of deep relaxation and heightened suggestibility.
Here’s how it works:relaxation: the process typically begins with the individual being guided into a relaxed state, often through deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation. This helps reduce stress and tension;focused attention: once relaxed, the hypnotist or the individual focuses on calming imagery or soothing words. This concentration helps to quiet the mind and block out distractions;positive suggestions: in this relaxed state, positive suggestions related to sleep are introduced. These might include affirmations like "I am relaxed and ready for sleep" or visualizations of a peaceful sleeping environment;reinforcement: the suggestions can be repeated or reinforced during the session, helping to create a mental association between the relaxed state and the ability to fall asleep easily;awakening: after the session, the individual is gently brought back to full awareness, often feeling refreshed and more open to the suggestions made during hypnosis.
By incorporating these techniques, hypnosis can help alleviate insomnia, reduce anxiety, and promote a more restful sleep.
