  The Mythology of the Aborigines...

  Aboriginal mythology is one of the oldest and most enduring oral traditions in the world, deeply intertwined with the identity, spirituality, and way of life of Indigenous Australians. At the heart of this mythology is the concept of **Dreamtime**, the sacred era in which the land, people, and laws of existence were formed. Unlike Western myths, which often separate the past from the present, Dreamtime stories are timeless—continuing to shape and guide Aboriginal communities today.  
    
  One of the most profound aspects of Aboriginal mythology is its role in explaining the creation of the natural world. The Dreaming tells of powerful ancestral beings who shaped the land, created rivers and mountains, and gave life to animals and people. These stories are not just myths but sacred truths, passed down through generations as a way of preserving knowledge, laws, and cultural values. The **Rainbow Serpent**, for example, is a common figure in many Aboriginal cultures, often depicted as a creator spirit responsible for forming the land and waterways. Other tales speak of celestial beings, tricksters, and wise elders who teach important lessons about survival, respect, and harmony with nature.  
    
  Oral tradition is central to Aboriginal culture, ensuring that these sacred stories remain alive. Unlike written texts, Dreamtime stories are preserved through song, dance, rock art, and storytelling, allowing each generation to contribute to and maintain their significance. The stories are more than entertainment; they serve as maps for navigating the landscape, moral guides for behavior, and spiritual connections to the ancestors. They also emphasize a deep respect for the land, as many stories explain the sacred nature of particular sites, reinforcing the importance of environmental stewardship.

  In this gripping account of her work, Marianne Franke-Gricksch speaks from her experience as a teacher and therapist, describing how systemic ideas enable fundamentally new and effective learning and encourage creative cooperation between students, teachers, and parents. Rather than viewing the participants in this process as isolated individuals, she shows how people and their environment constantly influence and change each other. Franke-Gricksch's own systemic view connects Bert Hellinger's work on the power of one's bond with his or her family of origin with various other approaches within systemic theory. The author's reports are consistently supported by practical examples from the everyday classroom situation. Especially fascinating is the children's enthusiasm and array of ideas that they use to pick up and transfer the new impulses and procedures. Readers who are new to these methods will also be amazed at the powerful effect that is released by systemic thinking and action.

  In The End of Ambition, Steven A. Cook charts the course of the United States' encounter with the Middle East from the mid-twentieth century through the present day. Looking back, Cook makes a bold claim: the US was--despite setbacks and moral costs--successful. That record of achievement began to unravel in the early 1990s when policymakers embarked upon a set of overly ambitious policies to remake the Middle East. Cook highlights that calls to withdraw from the region are rash given the important interests the US maintains in the region. Yet, he also underscores how those interests are changing and explores alternatives to America's current approach to the Middle East against the backdrop of political uncertainty in the United States and a changing global order. 
   
  A clear-headed vision for the United States' role in the Middle East that highlights the changing nature of US national interests and the challenges of grand strategizing at a time of profound change in the international order.
