Sinopse

Red Sea Trade explores the crucial role of the Red Sea as an economic artery connecting Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. This waterway fostered the exchange of goods, ideas, and cultural practices, significantly impacting global trade networks and the development of civilizations. The book argues that the Red Sea's unique geography and ecological characteristics created a sustained interplay between diverse societies, leading to specialized trading practices and the diffusion of technological innovations. It examines how the Red Sea has functioned not merely as a maritime route, but as a vital conduit for economic and cultural exchange.

 
The book unfolds chronologically, beginning with the Red Sea's geography and early trade history involving ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Axumites. It then analyzes the medieval and early modern periods, highlighting the influence of Islamic empires and European colonial powers. Later chapters address the modern era, focusing on the Suez Canal's impact and the geopolitical significance of the Red Sea today. Drawing upon archaeological reports, historical documents, and contemporary economic data, the book provides a balanced account of the opportunities and challenges presented by Red Sea trade.

    Curiosity - Farmers Discovering...

    Farming and ranching success comes from the freedom to fail because there is no silver bullet. Curiosity – Farmers Discovering What Works tells journeys farmers make to find solutions that are kinder to the environment, easier on the pocket and bring purpose, pride and confidence to those in the most complex profession there is. Each story has nuggets of inspiration and insight to stimulate observation and logic in farming matters. 
    John's perspectives are associated with the practices and principles of Allan Savory's Holistic Management, which though habits and routines, changes how farmers observe, question and probe for solutions. John teaches this in New Zealand and assists with farmers around the globe as a tutor for Holistic Management International. John draws on similarly minded farmers and experts such as Joel Salatin, Gabe Brown, Allan Nation, Allen Williams, Fred Provenza, Christine Jones, Charles Massy and others offering commercial farmers new directions and insights. 
    Reviews include: 
    …his purposeful “short, sharp” essays are designed for busy people. “Hopefully it’s style will remind you of Allan Nation.” Yes, John King did indeed capture Allan’s wise pithiness. I found myself underlining or circling something in virtually every essay. It’s dense, packed with sensible advice gleaned from dozens of on-farm experiments over numerous decades. Joel Salatin, editor, Stockman Grass Farmer, Missouri, USA 
    This invaluable and important book should be compulsory reading for anyone daring to manage farming landscapes with an eye to contributing to healthier farmscapes and catchments, rural families and their animals, and to a sustainable future. How I wish I could have read and lived in such a book as this when I was a young farmer preparing to make all the mistakes. A farming, social, and environmental gem. Charles Massy, author, Call of the Reed Warbler

    The Cereal Killer - The Twisted...

    The invention of breakfast cereal marked a turning point in modern eating habits, blending health-conscious innovation with industrial progress. During the late 19th century, many Americans consumed heavy, meat-based breakfasts, which were criticized by health reformers for contributing to widespread digestive issues and lethargy. It was against this backdrop that breakfast cereal was born—a light, convenient, and nutritious alternative that would revolutionize morning meals. 
    Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, a prominent health reformer and director of the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan, played a pivotal role in this transformation. Guided by his Seventh-day Adventist beliefs, Kellogg advocated for vegetarian diets and simple, unprocessed foods. In 1894, he and his brother, Will Keith Kellogg, inadvertently created the first flaked cereal while experimenting with boiled wheat dough. The flakes were originally served to sanitarium patients, quickly gaining popularity for their digestibility and appeal. 
    However, it wasn’t until Charles William Post, a patient at the sanitarium, entered the scene that cereal began its commercial rise. Inspired by the Kelloggs’ experiments, Post developed his own brand, "Grape-Nuts," in 1897. Unlike the Kelloggs, who initially viewed cereal as a tool for promoting health, Post aggressively marketed his product as a convenient and modern breakfast choice. His advertising strategies, which included bold health claims, brought cereal into the spotlight.

    Manager by Chance is the survival manual for every manager whose antidote to the complexities of corporate life is a smile.
    In the midst of revolutionary great resignation, quiet quitting, talent recession, smart working and short weeks, phenomena that reshape the conception of work and mark our time, with humor and sagacity the author tackles corporate dynamics as Sherlock Holmes solves a case, lifting the Mayan veil and shamelessly bringing to light corporate idiosyncrasies.
    Through her we discover that archetypes are alive and well and are our office companions, with their tics, their humanity, their weaknesses and their grandeur. A microcosm in the macrocosm of life that reveals so much about ourselves as human beings.
    Manager by Chance. A Guide to Survival in Business is a whisper to the conscientious, peaceful revolution of the manager, sitting in for a peaceful life even within the four corporate walls.
    In 2023 the book won the First Italian National Philosophy Prize in the Philosophical Practices section.
