  In the 200 years since Blake's death, the visionary artist, poet, and writer has become a household name, often beloved. Yet many struggle to comprehend his kaleidoscopic ideas; how they speak to human longings and the challenges of living in anxious times.Philosopher and psychotherapist Mark Vernon provides a fresh route into Blake, taking him at his word. Exploring this brilliant thinker's passionate writings, arresting artworks, and fascinating life, Vernon illuminates Blake's vivid worldview. Like us, he lived in a tumultuous era of war, discontent, rapid technological change, and human estrangement from nature. He exposed the dark sides of political fervor and social moralizing, while unashamedly celebrating love and liberty. But he also conversed with prophets and angels, and was powerfully, if unconventionally, religious. If we take this seriously—not easy, in secular times—then Blake can help us to unlock the transformative power of imagination.Written for both longstanding fans and those unfamiliar with his work, Awake! reveals Blake as an invigorating and hopeful guide for our modern age.

  Dark Triad - A Group of...

  Cito Harder

  The Dark Triad is a psychological framework that encompasses three distinct but interrelated personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. These traits are often associated with manipulation, lack of empathy, and a self-serving approach to relationships and social interactions. While each trait has its own characteristics, they share a common theme of emotional coldness, deceit, and a tendency to prioritize personal gain over ethical considerations. 
  Narcissism is characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance, a deep need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others. Narcissists often believe they are superior to those around them and expect constant validation. While some level of narcissism can be beneficial—such as having confidence and ambition—extreme narcissism can lead to entitlement, arrogance, and exploitative behavior in relationships. 
  Machiavellianism is defined by manipulation, cunning, and a willingness to deceive others for personal gain. Individuals high in Machiavellianism are strategic in their interactions, often using flattery, deception, or calculated charm to achieve their goals. Unlike narcissists, who crave attention, Machiavellians are primarily concerned with power and control. They are pragmatic and often view morality as an obstacle rather than a guiding principle.

  destroyed them all. I am utterly bored and work because hunger forces me to 
  it. I am afraid to commit suicide. What on earth am I to do?

  The Super Cadres - ANC Misrule...

  Pieter Du Toit

  After taking power, the ANC implemented its policy of cadre deployment. It sought command of all levers of power, from the Cabinet, through the civil service, down to municipal level.
  Despite the party recently lasing its majority, cadre deployment will ensure that the ANC maintains its iron grip on power and patronage, and it remains fused with the state.
  In The Super Cadres, bestselling author Pieter du Toit exposes how Nelson Mandela and Thabo Mbeki laid the foundation for complete ANC control of the state, how Jacob Zuma's ANC exploited it and why Cyril Ramsphosa is complicit in the destruction that followed.
  It is a searing critique of the ANC's desire for untrammelled power.
