  Ever opened a tab and forgotten why? 
  Mid-scroll, mid-thought… and poof—it’s gone? 
  No, it’s not just you. And no, it’s not early-onset anything, 
  You’ve simply been Forgotten. By. Design. 
  In Forgotten by Design: The Silent Epidemic of Digital Dementia, tech meets soul in this genre-bending, mind-bending manifesto on how your memory, focus, and very sense of time are being subtly stolen—and sold back to you. 
  This isn’t another “digital detox” guilt trip. 
  This is a call to remember who you were before 
  the algorithm got your number. 
  ◆ Neuroscience meets Vedic rituals. 
  ◆ Ancient myths collide with dopamine loops. 
  ◆ Real-life stories, surreal insights, and soul-searching questions. 
  Meet the yogi hidden in your nervous system, 
  Decode the ghost data shaping your identity. 
  And answer the only question that matters now: 
  If your mind’s been outsourced to machines… 
  what’s left of you? 
  This is not self-help. This is self-awakening. 
  (Warning: Once remembered, you can’t go back.) 
  ABOUT THE AUTHOR 
  Hardik Goel has spent over a decade wrangling data by day and words by caffeine-fueled night. By trade, he’s a data engineer and scientist, by temperament. a writer, editor, and part-time overthinker with an eye for patterns—whether in code, conversation, or comic coincidence. 
  This book is what happens when spreadsheets meet Sanskrit, and logic makes a late-night deal with mythology.

  Ousted from power by the French army on April 11, 2011, following the disputed presidential election in Côte d'Ivoire of November 2010, Laurent Gbagbo was charged with crimes against humanity before the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, on December 5, 2011.
  
  This book, written from 2012 onwards, thanks to numerous prison visits and interviews, is the only one to have been produced with the participation of the Ivorian president during his incarceration and trial.
  This unique testimony is more than ever a document for history, because it sheds light on the manipulations of the 2010 elections, the collusion between Nicolas Sarkozy's France and the ICC to get rid of Laurent Gbagbo, and the stalling tactics and maneuvers that marred "Gbagbogate."
  Over meetings with François Mattei, Laurent Gbagbo looks back on his seven years in prison, explains what they mean and shares his vision for the future—that of a free man, come what may.

  A Rare Recording of Ezra Pound

  Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (October 30, 1885 - November 1, 1972), born in what is now Hailey, Idaho, was a major American figure in the early modernist poetry movement, and a fascist collaborator in Italy during World War II. Angered by the carnage of World War I, Pound blamed the war on finance capitalism, which he called "usury". He moved to Italy in 1924, and through the 1930s and 1940s promoted an economic theory known as social credit, wrote for publications owned by the British fascist Sir Oswald Mosley, embraced Benito Mussolini's fascism, and expressed support for Adolf Hitler. During World War II and the Holocaust in Italy, he made hundreds of paid radio broadcasts for the Italian government attacking the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt and, above all, Jews. He was arrested in 1945 by American forces in Italy on charges of treason, spending months in a U.S. military camp in Pisa--including three weeks in an outdoor steel cage. Deemed unfit to stand trial, he was incarcerated in St. Elizabeth's psychiatric hospital in Washington, D.C., for over 12 years. After a campaign by his fellow writers, he was released from St. Elizabeth's in 1958 and lived in Italy until his death in 1972.

  Loch Ness Monster The: The...

  Although cryptozoology is often scoffed at and widely considered a pseudoscience, one of the reasons it made men like Barnum rich and continues to fascinate people today is the fact that people realize they’ve only scratched the surface when it comes to identifying all the different forms of life on Earth. As Martin DelRio pointed out in The Loch Ness Monster, “Animals previously unknown to science have been found more than once in the past hundred years. For instance, there's the megamouth shark (megachasma pelagios), a fifteen-foot-long creature weighing nearly a ton. The first specimen was discovered on November 15, 1976, when it was found entangled in the drag anchor of a U.S. Navy ship. The new creature wasn't described scientifically until 1983…The megamouth remains the only species in its genus, and the only genus in its order.”  
  	While cryptids like Bigfoot and the Yeti have become popular in recent decades, none of them can touch the notoriety of the Loch Ness Monster, a large, unknown creature allegedly living in a loch in the Highlands of Scotland. Was it a relic dinosaur or perhaps an entirely new species? New photographs and new eyewitness sightings fueled a growing debate and transformed the Loch Ness Monster, also known as Nessie, into an instantly recognizable staple of pop culture, to the extent that hundreds of thousands of visitors came to Loch Ness every year in hopes of catching a glimpse of the loch’s famous inhabitant.  
  	The Loch Ness Monster remains an international brand and the best-known cryptid in the world, but after almost 100 years of fame and media attention, what do people really know about this cryptid, and is there any proof that there really is something large and unknown living in a remote Scottish loch?

  The Speeches of Marcus

  Marcus Aurelius

  In the echoes of ancient Rome, where the clang of swords met the whispers of philosophy, Marcus Aurelius stood as both ruler and sage. The Speeches of Marcus is not a mere collection of words, but a testament to a mind sculpted by discipline and tempered by duty. His voice, austere yet compassionate, resounds through the corridors of time, inviting the listener to ponder the nature of power, virtue, and the fragile thread that binds humanity.
  With each measured phrase, Marcus does not seek to dazzle or dominate but to illuminate the path of reason and justice. His reflections, born from the battlefield and the senate, transcend the realm of politics and touch the core of the human soul. This work is not for the fleeting mind but for the seeker of truth, for those who dare to confront the impermanence of life and the inevitability of fate. 
  The Speeches of Marcus is an invitation to stand beside the philosopher-emperor as he faces the storms of empire and the shadows of mortality. It is a timeless dialogue between the self and the world, where the echoes of wisdom guide us through the chaos of existence.
