  Success among Nations

  Emil Reich

  Step into a sweeping, provocative tour of world history that asks a timeless question: why do some nations surge ahead while others stall or fall? In Success Among Nations, Emil Reich blends grand narrative with sharp psychological insight to trace the forces—economic, political, intellectual, and spiritual—that have shaped civilizations from ancient Egypt and Babylon to Greece, Rome, Renaissance Italy, modern France, Germany, Britain, Russia, and the United States. 
  This audiobook doesn’t just recount events; it dissects the human energies beneath them. Reich argues that prosperity and culture rarely rise together, that geography and city-states matter more than “race,” that alphabets and institutions can change the fate of continents, and that over-intellectualization can sap a people’s will just as surely as luxury can dull its edge. He juxtaposes Carthage’s commercial genius with Rome’s statecraft, Athens’s artistic brilliance with its political fragility, Venice’s maritime ascent with its eclipse after the Age of Discovery, and the middle-class engine of European modernity with Russia’s struggle for a true bourgeois core. Along the way, he explores how empires are won and lost, why religious movements with tiny beginnings reshape continents, and how character—national and personal—steers destiny. 
  Reich writes with bracing clarity and fearless opinion, drawing bold connections between past and present. You’ll meet conquerors and city builders, merchants and monks, reformers and revolutionaries—and see how canals, scripts, schools, armies, churches, and marketplaces forged the modern world. Whether examining the anatomy of British sea power, the organizational genius of the Jesuits, the civic soil that cultured Greek tragedy and science, or the restless dynamism of America, this is history as diagnosis and forecast.

  Fight - How Gen Z Is Channeling...

  9/11. The war on terror. Hurricane Katrina. The 2008 financial crisis. The housing crisis. The opioid epidemic. Mass school shootings. Global warming. The Trump presidency. COVID-19. 
   
   
   
  Since they were born, Generation Z (also known as "zoomers")—those born from the late 1990s to early 2000s—have been faced with an onslaught of turmoil, destruction, and instability unprecedented in modern history. And it shows: they are more stressed, anxious, and depressed than previous generations, a phenomenon John Della Volpe has documented heavily. 
   
   
   
  But Gen Z has not buckled under this tremendous weight. On the contrary, they have organized around issues from gun control to racial and environmental justice to economic equity, becoming more politically engaged than their elders, and showing a unique willingness to disrupt the status quo. 
   
   
   
  In Fight: How Gen Z Is Channeling Their Passion and Fear to Save America, Della Volpe draws on his vast experience to show the largest forces shaping zoomers' lives, the issues they care most about, and how they are—despite older Americans' efforts to label Gen Z as overly sensitive, lazy, and entitled—rising to the unprecedented challenges of their time to take control.

  Chinese History - A...

  This is a book combo with the following topics: 
  Ancient China: It’s hard to cover all of China’s vast history in a short book, but for the sake of leaving out details, we will still give it a try. In this guide, you will be able to learn more about the most important turning events, eras, dynasties, leaders, wars, and cultural aspects of ancient China. Ancient China has different historic periods. The first we will talk about in this book is the Xia Dynasty. And after that, others will be dealt with, as they were the ages that followed that. Then we will discuss the Shang and Zhou dynasty. Enjoy! 
  Portuguese Macau: Macau is known as the Las Vegas of China. It attracts many tourists every year, and it has a unique set of laws and history behind it. How did it become this way? Well, one of the reasons is that it used to be part of the Portuguese Empire. We have probably all heard about the British in China, the Opium Wars, and the tea export, but you might not have heard about the Portuguese settlers who went there. Macau still shows signs of Portuguese influence, even when you go there to visit. So, let’s take a look at what happened and how the area evolved into what it is today.
