    B.F. Skinner (March 20, 1904 - August 18, 1990) was an American psychologist, behaviorist, author, inventor, and social philosopher. Considering free will to be an illusion, Skinner saw human action as dependent on consequences of previous actions, a theory he would articulate as the principle of reinforcement: If the consequences to an action are bad, there is a high chance the action will not be repeated; if the consequences are good, the probability of the action being repeated becomes stronger. Contemporary academia considers Skinner, along with John B. Watson and Ivan Pavlov, a pioneer of modern behaviorism. The following speech was recorded in 1990, shortly before his death.

    The Epic of Gilgamesh stands as one of the greatest literary works of the ancient world and the oldest surviving epic poem in human history. Originating from ancient Mesopotamia over 4,000 years ago, it was inscribed on clay tablets in cuneiform script and preserved through centuries of oral tradition. This epic tells the story of Gilgamesh, the mighty king of Uruk, whose adventures, friendships, and struggles with mortality continue to captivate readers to this day. As both a historical and mythical figure, Gilgamesh represents the universal human desire for glory, wisdom, and eternal life.  
      
    The epic was rediscovered in the 19th century among the ruins of the great Assyrian library of King Ashurbanipal in Nineveh. Scholars painstakingly translated its fragmented tablets, revealing a narrative that predates even the Homeric epics of Greece. Its influence can be seen in later mythologies, including biblical and classical traditions, with themes and motifs that echo throughout world literature. The story’s philosophical depth, particularly its exploration of human limitations and the acceptance of mortality, remains profoundly relevant.  
      
    Central to the Epic of Gilgamesh are its rich mythological elements, which reflect the beliefs and values of ancient Mesopotamian civilization. The gods play an active role in shaping the fate of mortals, highlighting the intricate relationship between divine forces and human ambition. From the creation of Enkidu as Gilgamesh’s equal to the wrath of the gods following their defiance, the narrative explores the balance between power and responsibility. The story also delves into themes of friendship, grief, and self-discovery, making it a timeless reflection of the human condition.

    This book contains three titles: 
    - The Rise of Nazi Germany: The rise of Nazi Germany is a tale deeply rooted in the tumultuous conditions following World War I, when Germany was thrust into a period of economic collapse, social disarray, and political chaos. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, aimed to punish Germany for its role in the war, imposing harsh reparations and territorial losses that humiliated the nation. This punitive treaty left the German people feeling betrayed, their economy in ruins, and their national pride shattered. The Weimar Republic, established in 1919, was meant to provide a democratic alternative, but it struggled from the outset. 
    - The Holocaust: The devastating events of World War II, particularly the Holocaust, left an indelible mark on the history of humanity. This chapter sets the stage for understanding the roots of hatred that led to one of the most horrific genocides in human history, and the role of ordinary people in shaping the course of events during the war. The Holocaust was not just an isolated act of mass murder; it was the culmination of a complex set of political, social, and cultural factors that had been brewing for decades.  
    - Nuremberg Trials: The Nuremberg Trials were a series of military tribunals held after World War II to prosecute prominent leaders of Nazi Germany for crimes committed during the war. These trials were a defining moment in the history of international law and marked the first time that individuals were held accountable on an international stage for atrocities committed by a regime. The trials took place in the city of Nuremberg, Germany, from 1945 to 1949, and were conducted by the Allied powers—the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and France—who sought to bring justice to the victims of the Holocaust, forced labor, and widespread destruction caused by the Nazis.

    From 1955 to 1975, Vera Pigee (1924–2007) put her life and livelihood on the line with grassroots efforts for social change in Mississippi, principally through her years of leadership in Coahoma County's NAACP. Known as the "Lady of Hats," coined by NAACP executive secretary Roy Wilkins, Pigee was a businesswoman, mother, and leader. Her book, The Struggle of Struggles, offers a detailed view of the daily grind of organizing for years to open the state's closed society. Fearless, forthright, and fashionable, Pigee also suffered for her efforts at the hands of white supremacists and those unwilling to accept strong women in leadership. She wrote herself into the histories, confronted misinformation, and self-published one of the first autobiographies from the era. Women like her worked, often without accolade or recognition, in their communities all over the country, but did not document their efforts in this way. 
     
     
     
    The Struggle of Struggles, originally published in 1975, spotlights the gendered and generational tensions within the civil rights movement. It outlines the complexity, frustrations, and snubs, as well as the joy and triumphs that Pigee experienced and witnessed in the quest for a fairer and more equitable nation.
