  Prudence is more than just caution; it is the ability to make thoughtful, well-reasoned decisions that lead to the best possible outcomes. It is a virtue that balances wisdom, foresight, and practicality, guiding individuals to act with both intelligence and responsibility. Unlike impulsiveness, which often results in short-term satisfaction but long-term regret, prudence encourages patience and careful consideration before taking action. 
  Throughout history, great thinkers have recognized prudence as a cornerstone of wisdom. Aristotle considered it one of the cardinal virtues, essential for leading a virtuous life. In his view, prudence allows individuals to weigh their choices carefully, taking into account both moral and practical consequences. Similarly, in many religious and philosophical traditions, prudence is seen as a guiding principle that helps people navigate the complexities of life with clarity and integrity. 
  The importance of prudence becomes evident in everyday decision-making. Whether managing finances, handling relationships, or planning for the future, the ability to make wise choices is crucial. A prudent person does not simply react to circumstances but instead evaluates potential risks and benefits before making a move. This deliberate approach leads to stability and success, allowing individuals to avoid unnecessary mistakes and setbacks.

  Long Haul - Hunting the Highway...

  ""A true-crime masterpiece."" —Don Winslow 
  A Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award Finalist (Best Fact Crime) 
  From the FBI’s former assistant director, a shocking journey to the dark side of America’s highways, revealing the FBI Highway Serial Killings Initiative’s hunt for the long-haul truckers behind an astonishing 850 murders–and counting. 
  In 2004, the FBI was tipped off to a gruesome pattern of unsolved murders along American roadways. Today at least 850 homicides have been linked to a solitary breed of predators: long-haul truck drivers. They have been given names like the “Truck Stop Killer,” who rigged a traveling torture chamber in the rear of his truck and is suspected to have killed fifty women, and “The Interstate Strangler,” who once answered a phone call from his mother while killing one of his dozen victims. The crisis was such that the FBI opened a special unit, the Highway Serial Killings Initiative. In many cases, the victims—often at-risk women—are picked up at truck stops in one jurisdiction, sexually assaulted and murdered in another, and dumped along a highway in a third place. The transient nature of the offenders and multiple jurisdictions involved make these cases incredibly difficult to solve. 
  Based on his own on-the-ground research and drawing on his twenty-five-year career as an FBI special agent, Frank Figliuzzi investigates the most terrifying cases. He also rides in a big-rig with a long-haul trucker for thousands of miles, gaining an intimate understanding of the life and habits of drivers and their roadside culture. And he interviews the courageous trafficked victims of these crimes, and their inspiring efforts to now help others avoid similar fates. 
  Long Haul is a gripping exploration of a violent, disordered world hiding in plain sight, and the heroes racing to end the horror. It will forever unsettle how you travel on the road. 
  Shortlisted for four 2025 True Crime Awards

  The Qing Dynasty - The Last...

  The Qing Dynasty, the last imperial dynasty of China, was established in 1644 by the Manchu people, an ethnic group from the northeast of China. The rise of the Qing Dynasty was a result of a combination of military conquest, strategic alliances, and a deep understanding of Chinese traditions. The Manchus, initially a small tribe in what is today known as Manchuria, were able to capitalize on the weakening Ming Dynasty and internal strife within China. This chapter will explore how the Manchu rulers successfully expanded their power and established one of the longest and most influential dynasties in Chinese history. 
  The Manchu people, led by the ambitious and skilled leader Nurhaci, had been unified under his banner in the early 17th century. Nurhaci’s military campaigns in Manchuria helped create a strong foundation for what would later become the Qing Dynasty. After his death in 1626, his son, Hong Taiji, continued to build on his father’s legacy, consolidating power and forming alliances with various Chinese factions. Hong Taiji's strategic foresight helped prepare the Manchus for a successful invasion of China. In 1636, he formally declared the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, marking the official beginning of their imperial rule. 
  By the early 1640s, the Ming Dynasty was in a state of disarray. The empire was plagued by corruption, peasant uprisings, and economic instability. The most notable rebellion was the Li Zicheng-led peasant revolt, which culminated in the fall of the Ming capital, Beijing, in 1644. In this moment of vulnerability, the Manchus, under the leadership of Emperor Shunzhi, seized the opportunity to invade China. The Qing forces entered Beijing and effectively replaced the fallen Ming dynasty, marking the beginning of the Qing rule over China.
