Sinopsis

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. Adams's meticulous scholarship and profound reflections make this work an invaluable resource for historians, scholars, and general readers alike, inviting them to ponder the enduring implications of Jefferson's legacy in contemporary society.

    A Story of Love Conquers All 
    This is a tell-all story: the good and the bad of parenting a child with Autism and ADHD. Do you need a laugh, a cry, or release from a heavy subject of diagnosis? Why not flick through the pages of this book. In your hands, you hold an overview of information that I have researched and used. It is filled with strategies and integrated therapy methods, and with parenting tips which have been a saving grace for me and my family. 
    This is a memoir which I hope will inspire, as it is based on real life experiences and my ongoing research. I’m an ordinary person, not a doctor. I can be an actress … Yet, the truth is that I’m a mother, here to tell you a love story where “love conquerors all”. Parenting in itself is hard work and a little extra challenging with special needs. If I can do it, you can do it! Parenthood is one of the greatest gifts a person can encounter. Wouldn’t you agree? 
    Our son has contributed into who I am today, and I hope my family’s story can help your child reach their full potential, as you read about all that I have learnt and applied; it has been a game changer.

    When the opossum feels threatened, she becomes paralyzed. Her body temperature plummets, her breathing and heart rates drop to a minimum, and her glands simulate the smell of a putrefying corpse. Playing Possum explores what the opossum and other creatures can teach us about how we and other species understand mortality, and demonstrates that the concept of death, far from being a uniquely human attribute, is widespread in the animal kingdom. 
     
     
     
    With humor and empathy, Susana Monsó tells the stories of ants who attend their own funerals, chimpanzees who clean the teeth of their dead, dogs who snack on their caregivers, crows who avoid the places where they saw a carcass, elephants obsessed with collecting ivory, and whales who carry their dead for weeks. Monsó, one of today's leading experts on animal cognition and ethics, shows how there are more ways to conceive of mortality than the human way, and challenges the notion that the only emotional reactions to death worthy of our attention are ones that resemble our own. 
     
     
     
    Blending philosophical insight with new evidence from behavioral science and comparative psychology, Playing Possum dispels the anthropocentric biases that cloud our understanding of the natural world, and reveals that, when it comes to death and dying, we are just another animal.
