Summary

Derinkuyu Depth Secrets explores the extraordinary underground city of Derinkuyu in Cappadocia, Turkey, a testament to ancient engineering and societal organization. Carved from volcanic rock before 1000 BCE, this multi-level subterranean metropolis reveals the resourcefulness of ancient civilizations in creating complex environments. The book delves into the architectural design, historical purpose, and the civilization(s) responsible for this remarkable feat, challenging conventional narratives of early human settlements. Derinkuyu's sophisticated ventilation systems and intricate water management showcase an impressive understanding of architectural principles. The book investigates Cappadocia’s geological context and turbulent history to understand the city’s construction as a refuge. Beginning with the discovery and geography of Derinkuyu, the book progresses through a detailed analysis of its architecture and defensive mechanisms. Subsequent chapters explore the city's potential origins, examining archaeological evidence and historical accounts. The book concludes by placing Derinkuyu within the broader historical context of Anatolia, highlighting its lasting legacy as a symbol of human resilience.

    Stop Self-Sabotage: Why You Keep...

    Why do you destroy things you actually want?
     
    The relationship that was going well.
    The opportunity that was finally opening up.
    The progress you worked hard to build.
     
    And then suddenly… you pulled back.
    You procrastinated.
    You created conflict.
    You lost momentum.
     
    Afterward, you're left asking the same question:
     
    “Why do I keep doing this to myself?”
     
    This audiobook explores the hidden psychology behind self-sabotage — the unconscious pattern that makes you work against your own goals, even when you know exactly what you're doing.
     
    Self-sabotage is not laziness.
    It’s not lack of discipline.
    And it’s not proof that you don’t actually want success.
     
    It’s a protective emotional pattern that formed earlier in life and still activates automatically when success, visibility, change, or pressure appear.
     
    Across five focused sessions, you'll gain a deep understanding of why you keep getting in your own way — and why the pattern persists even when you desperately want things to change.
     
    This is Book 1 in the Stop Self-Sabotage series.
     
    Book 1 builds the psychological foundation: understanding the pattern, where it came from, and what it’s protecting you from.
     
    Book 2 — The Practice of Self-Trust — introduces the practical skills for interrupting the pattern and building self-trust in real time.
     
    If you've ever felt like you're standing in your own way…
    this audiobook will help you understand why.
     
    And understanding is the first step toward breaking the pattern.

    Constructed from first person accounts from Union and Confederate officers and soldiers, this military history is perfect for Civil War buffs.    At Gettysburg on July 3, 1863, Confederate soldiers launched one of history’s most famous infantry assaults: Pickett's Charge. Using the participants’ own words, Richard Rollins deftly reconstructs that momentous event. Separate sections cover planning and preparation; the preliminary artillery barrage; the charges of Pickett's, Pettigrew's, and Trimble's Divisions; and defensive actions up and down the Federal line. From the generals who devised the assault to the lower-level officers and men who bravely walked through shell and shot, Rollins offers a comprehensive, panoramic view of the charge, with more than 150 firsthand accounts—including accounts from Lee, Longstreet, Pickett, Meade, and Hancock—many of them long forgotten and previously unpublished.

    #MeToo in the Corporate World -...

    Sylvia Ann Hewlett

    Economist and award-winning author Sylvia Ann Hewlett blends vivid stories with powerful new data in assessing the impact of the #MeToo movement in corporate America and provides concrete action to help executives and companies create more inclusive and safe work environments for women, people of color, and LGBTQ employees.  
     
    While the #MeToo movement has exposed the enormous harm done by sexual misconduct in the workplace, the movement’s full promise has not been fulfilled, Sylvia Ann Hewlett argues. Showcasing new data on the incidence of sexual harassment and assault at work, she reveals how the movement has focused almost exclusively on white women and failed to support other vulnerable groups who are also targets of abuse. Black men, gay men and women, and Latinas experience particularly high rates of sexual harassment and assault.  
    In addition to exploring the movement’s limitations, Hewlett examines the collateral damage inflicted by #MeToo. She looks at hits to the bottom line (lawsuits and settlements, tarnished brands, and stock devaluations) and hits to the talent pipeline. In particular she shows how male leaders, fearful of gossip and legal action, are increasingly skittish about sponsoring young women, no matter how high performing they are. This makes it much more likely that women will stall out mid-career and will deprive companies of diversity in the C-Suite and “gender smarts” around decision-making tables. Digging deep into examples that range from Fox News, Nike, and Google to CBS, Michigan State University, and the Catholic Church, Hewlett lays bare the financial losses associated with sexual misconduct scandals. No wonder corporate chief risk officers newly have #MeToo in their line of sight!  
    A third of this book is devoted to solutions and Hewlett offers a three-pronged strategy, combining legal remedies with individual and corporate action steps that can be used to protect employees and businesses they work for. Drawing from companies as different as IBM and IPG she discusses “experiments at the edge” as well as more evolved initiatives that can help any corporation create a more equitable and safer environment.
