Summary

Henry Adams's "History of the United States During Thomas Jefferson's Administrations" is a complex and nuanced exploration of a pivotal era in American history. Covering the years 1801 to 1809, Adams engages with the intricacies of Jefferson's political philosophy, the burgeoning challenges of governance, and the struggles surrounding individual rights and national identity. Written in a style that marries rigorous historical analysis with a literary flair, Adams's narrative weaves together themes of democracy, civic responsibility, and the evolution of public sentiment. His keen observations provide readers with a lens through which to comprehend the interplay between personal ambition and national ideals during a transformative period in American politics. Henry Adams, a direct descendant of two U.S. presidents, drew upon his familial legacy when crafting this work. Living during the time of rapid social, economic, and political transformations in the late 19th century, Adams sought to understand the foundations of American democracy and the historical figures that shaped it. His intimate knowledge of political systems, along with his experience as a historian and author, inspired him to explore the life and times of Jefferson with unparalleled depth and insight. This book is essential for anyone interested in the roots of American democracy and the complexities of its early leadership.

    Do you ever feel guilty for being angry? Women and girls are often taught that we are overreacting, or just being too sensitive or unreasonable when anger arises. This bottled-up anger can then lead to inner criticism, self-doubt, resentment, emotional avoidance, and conflicts with others. This repressed anger can also cause a ripple effect throughout the body. 
     
     
     
    In this much-needed guide, a clinical psychologist and somatic therapist reveals how anger creates stress in the body and mind, and offers powerful body-based, somatic practices and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to help you let go of internalized anger. 
     
    With this go-to guide, you'll also learn to: 
     
     
     
    ● Find validation in your anger and other intense emotions 
     
     
     
    ● Move past negative thinking, destructive aggression, and repressed hostility 
     
     
     
    ● Increase body awareness through movement and breathing practices 
     
     
     
    Anger can be a powerful barometer in our lives, but too often it's misunderstood, misplaced, and mismanaged. This book will help you gain control of your anger so you can think clearly, communicate effectively, and channel your emotions in ways that can improve your life!

    Narcissism And Leadership

    The destiny of humankind as a species fell on the shoulders of great men.The current book aims to unravel the changes in narcissistic leadership that develop over time and examine the potential mechanisms responsible for any such changes.The term “Narcissism” is derived from Ovid’s tale of Narcissus falling in love with his own reflection to the detriment of his genuine/authentic self, which caused him to perish. Although Ovid’s tale of Narcissus being obsessed with his image is void of any psychological examination, it is significant not merely for where the term “narcissism” is derived from. More importantly, constructive themes like unrequited self-love resonated with later interpretations of narcissism as a personality trait.Such individuals’ maintenance of their self-esteem depends on the continued use of certain mental functions. They continually judge others, usually pointing up the moral flaws in other people’s personalities and behavior, and, without shame or hesitation, they set themselves up as the guides and leaders and gods of those who need guidance, of leadership, and as a target for their reverence.These psychoanalytical perspectives suggest that narcissists regulate their self-image through portrayals of boasting, which are often boundless, leading to their rise into leadership positions.
