Sinopse

Ethiopian Dynasties explores the remarkable history of Ethiopia through its ruling families, particularly the Solomonic Dynasty, which claimed descent from the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon. This book examines how these dynasties shaped Ethiopia's cultural identity, maintained its sovereignty, and navigated complex political landscapes. Unlike many African nations, Ethiopia avoided colonization, and this book highlights how its dynasties contributed to its unique development, rooted in ancient traditions and Christian faith. The book delves into the establishment of power, the evolution of Ethiopian governance, and the interplay between dynastic leadership, religious institutions, and socio-cultural norms.

 
Ethiopian history reveals fascinating insights, such as the significance of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, which played a pivotal role in shaping the nation's identity and preserving its independence. The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the mythical origins of the Solomonic line, moving through the Axumite Kingdom and the Zagwe dynasty, and concluding with the reign of Haile Selassie I and the fall of the monarchy.

 
This comprehensive account draws on royal chronicles, religious texts, and modern scholarship to provide a balanced view of Ethiopian history. By examining the political, social, and religious dimensions of dynastic rule, Ethiopian Dynasties offers valuable insights into the forces that shaped Ethiopia's past and continue to influence its present. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in African history, monarchical systems, or the history of Ethiopia.

    Can you predict killing sprees? What do mass killers have in common? Why do so many of them write manifestos online and what do these tell us?
     
    These are some of the questions David J. Krajicek seeks to answer in Mass Killings, on a topic that is becoming increasing urgent and desperate. In recent decades, mass shootings worldwide have increased in their savagery and frequency. Nearly all mass killers are male - and many of them are bound together by misogyny, misanthropy, and racism. They do not just "snap." They plan their assaults for months or years, drawing up detailed battle plans, and accumulating weaponry. They document the process in journals or videos online, understanding that they are leaving evidence which will help the marquee lights of their futile crimes burn brighter and longer.
     
    Krajicek shows the commonalities between mass shooters, and describes the psychopathic process that leads these troubled men to commit atrocities. Mass killers feed off each other's words and deeds, and it's crucial to be able to read the signals they give out to prevent future tragedies.

    This riveting book is an astonishing testimony of what befell two sisters, Whitehouse’s own mother-in-law and aunt, who managed to escape the killing fields in Vichy France against all odds. 
      
    Marion and Huguette Müller’s family was torn apart when the Nazis invaded France in 1940. After their mother was deported to Auschwitz, the sisters fled to the small Alpine ski resort village of Val d'Isère, where they were rescued by a brave young doctor. 
      
         Through intrepid reporting and meticulous research, Whitehouse traces the story of the Müller sisters, solving decades-old mysteries in her attempt to deliver both closure and justice. With skill and urgency, Whitehouse raises moral questions at the heart of the tragedy of the Shoah: questions about complicity, culpability, about duty to your country and your fellow man. She sifts through thousands of records and pieces together how the sisters were saved, and how so many others were lost. 
      
         It is a tale full of shocking discoveries featuring a bloodthirsty killer, secret operatives of the French resistance, forged documents, narrow escapes, and miracles.

    Ten essays on how reading and meaningfully engaging with literature can help us live better, more purposeful lives. 
    How do we live fully? 
    How do we live successfully? 
    Adrift in an anchorless world, we often worry about where we are heading. What meaning can we hope to find our modern, secular life? The answer, Ben Hutchinson explains, can be found by looking to writers and thinkers to help us live more purposefully, more mindfully – more fully. 
    Interweaving his own (mis-)adventures with those of authors such as T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust and Joan Didion, On Purpose proposes ten ways in which reading and writing encourage us to ask difficult questions, project our minds into the past and future, and see ourselves and others differently. 
    Engaging, uplifting and aphoristic, this book is for anyone who has lost their sense of direction or wishes to radically transform the way they live. 
    Ben Hutchinson's On Purpose is a non-fiction collection of essays that combines philosophy, ethics, and literary criticism to explore the concept of happiness. This top-rated book is a testament to the power of literature in personal growth and self-help. 
    For fans of Mary Beard (Confronting the Classics), Gary Gutting (Talking God), Terry Eagleton (Ideology), Nedra Glover Tawwab (Set Boundaries, Find Peace), and Catherine Belsey (A Future for Criticism).
