Sinopsis

Hippocrates of Kos (c. 460 - c. 370 BC) was a Greek physician of the classical period who is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine. He is traditionally referred to as the “Father of Medicine” and the Hippocratic school of medicine revolutionized ancient Greek medicine, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields with which it had traditionally been associated (theurgy and philosophy), thus establishing medicine as a profession.Our publishing house brings to the attention of readers the treatise Of the Epidemics, attributed to Hippocrates, in the translation from ancient Greek into English made in the nineteenth century by Francis Adams, a Scottish medical doctor and translator of many Greek, Roman and Arabic ancient medical works. It is the first true historical, medical and scientific treatise of antiquity on the theme of epidemics.

  • The Shocking Truth about Political Corruption - cover

    The Shocking Truth about...

    Political corruption is a pervasive issue that has existed for centuries, shaping the course of governments and societies worldwide. It manifests in various forms, from bribery and fraud to nepotism and abuse of power. Regardless of the system of governance, corruption erodes trust, distorts policies, and undermines democratic principles. While many assume corruption is limited to authoritarian regimes, it is also deeply embedded in democratic institutions, where influence and money often dictate political decisions.  
      
    The roots of corruption can be traced back to the earliest civilizations, where leaders sought personal gain at the expense of their people. Throughout history, political scandals have exposed the extent of corruption within governments, from financial embezzlement to electoral fraud. These cases serve as stark reminders of how unchecked power can lead to widespread deception and exploitation. Corruption is not only a moral failure but a structural issue that allows those in power to manipulate systems designed to serve the public.  
      
    Beyond historical examples, the impact of corruption is far-reaching. It weakens economies by diverting public funds into private hands, leaving essential services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure underfunded. It fuels inequality, as the wealthy and well-connected benefit from corrupt dealings while the average citizen suffers. When corruption becomes the norm, public trust in institutions erodes, leading to political apathy, civil unrest, and, in extreme cases, the collapse of governments.

    Clear and illuminating commentary on one of Bodhidharma's most important texts—designed to help Chan practitioners apply timeless and essential advice to their practice 
     
     
     
    Legend has it that more than a thousand years ago an Indian Buddhist monk named Bodhidharma arrived in China. His approach to teaching was unlike that of any of the Buddhist missionaries who had come to China before him. He confounded the emperor with cryptic dialogues, traveled the country, lived in a cave in the mountains, and eventually paved the way for a unique and illuminating approach to Buddhist teachings that would later spread across the whole of East Asia in the form of Chan—later to be known as Seon in Korean, Thien in Vietnamese, and Zen in Japanese. 
     
     
     
    This book, a translation and commentary on one of Bodhidharma's most important texts, explores Bodhidharma's revolutionary teachings in English. Guo Gu weaves his commentary through modern and relatable contexts, showing that this centuries-old wisdom is just as crucial for life now as it was when it first came to be. Masterfully translated and accompanied by helpful insights to supplement daily practice, The Essence of Chan is the perfect guide for those new to Chan, those returning, or those who have been practicing for years.
