Sinopse

Hippolyte Taine's "The French Revolution" (Vol. 1-3) is a comprehensive analysis of the sociopolitical forces that shaped one of history's most transformative events. Taine marries rigorous historical research with a narrative style that reflects his deep understanding of cultural and philosophical contexts, drawing on a vast array of primary sources. His exploration extends beyond mere events, delving into the psychological and emotional underpinnings of the revolution, examining how Enlightenment ideas catalyzed the tumultuous shifts in French society. This work is essential for understanding the implications of the Revolution not only in France but also across Europe and the Americas, marking it as a seminal text in modern historiography. Hippolyte Taine (1828-1893) was a prominent French philosopher, critic, and historian, whose intellectual background was steeped in the realities of the 19th-century sociopolitical landscape. Influenced by Auguste Comte's positivism, Taine sought to apply scientific principles to history, believing that understanding the past could prevent the mistakes of the future. His scholarly dedication and innovative methodologies render this work a cornerstone in the study of French history. I recommend "The French Revolution" to anyone seeking an in-depth, analytical perspective on this defining moment in human history. Taine's insightful articulation and scholarly rigor make this multi-volume work an indispensable resource for students, historians, and general readers alike.

    The Physics of Miraculous...

    During a near-death experience, an end-stage terminal cancer patient had a profound, emotionally transformative experience in which she let go of all fear—she rallied and became cancer free in a few short weeks. A devout woman, body twisted, wasted, and brought to the brink of death by years of multiple sclerosis, heard a Voice, stood up, and walked—she was healed in minutes. Although these and thousands of similarly amazing cases have been medically verified, most doctors and most people believe that such cases cannot be true because the science underlying modern medicine doesn't provide any explanation for how such rapid physical change could be possible. Medicine's underlying science, however, has changed little despite nearly a hundred years of breakthroughs in physics—breakthroughs that do provide scientific explanations for these cases. 
     
     
     
    Modern physics' breakthroughs support millennia old spiritual traditions that suggest that not only is extraordinary, miraculous healing possible, but that we have innate soul powers—our emotions, personal beliefs, and our ability to connect to Spirit—that directly and powerfully determine our health and ability to self-heal. Modern physics and experiential spiritual traditions give us an unlimited view of health and healing that puts controllable influences, emotion, belief, and connection to Spirit, in charge.

    The Deadly Rise of Anti-science...

    During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, one renowned scientist, in his famous bowtie, appeared daily on major news networks such as MSNBC, NPR, the BBC, and others.  
     
    Dr. Peter J. Hotez often went without sleep, working around the clock to develop a nonprofit COVID-19 vaccine and to keep the public informed. During that time, he was one of the most trusted voices on the pandemic and was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for  
    his selfless work. He also became one of the main targets of anti-science rhetoric that gained traction through conservative news media.  
     
    In this eyewitness story of how the anti-vaccine movement grew into a dangerous and prominent anti-science element in American politics, Hotez describes the devastating impacts it has had on Americans’ health and lives. As a scientist who has endured antagonism from anti-vaxxers and been at the forefront of both essential scientific discovery and advocacy, Hotez is uniquely qualified to tell this story. By weaving his personal experiences together with information on how the anti-vaccine movement became a tool of far-right political figures around the world, Hotez opens readers’ eyes to the dangers of anti-science. He explains how anti-science became a major societal and lethal force: in the first years of the pandemic, more than 200,000 unvaccinated Americans needlessly died despite the widespread availability of COVID-19 vaccines. Even as he paints a picture of the world under a shadow of aggressive ignorance, Hotez demonstrates his innate optimism, offering solutions for how to combat science denial and save lives in the process.

    Deborah Dundas is a journalist who grew up poor and almost didn’t make it to university. In On Class, she talks to writers, activists, those who work with the poor and those who are poor about what happens when we don’t talk about poverty or class—and what will happen when we do.
    		 
    Growing up poor, Deborah Dundas knew what it meant to want, to be hungry, and to long for social and economic dignity; she understood the crushing weight of having nothing much expected of you. But even after overcoming many of the usual barriers faced by lower- and working-class people, she still felt anxious about her place, and even in relatively safe spaces reluctant to broach the subject of class. While new social movements have generated open conversation about gender and racism, discussions of class rarely include the voices of those most deeply affected: the working class and poor. 
    On Class is an exploration of the ways in which we talk about class: of who tells the stories, and who doesn’t, which ones tend to be repeated most often, and why this has to change. It asks the question: What don’t we talk about when we don’t talk about class? And what might happen if, finally, we did?

    Sambhaji's death was a big blow to the Marathas. He was the rightful heir and a daredevil; someone who could have challenged Aurangzeb had he not been given up by his own family members.
    The Marathas were not to give up so easily. The few years after Sambhaji's death were ruinous and confusing. Sambhaji's younger brother Rajaram, who was nineteen, and his mother Tarabai stayed at the Raigad fort. Yesaji Kank, a veteran since Shivaji's time, did not waste time to declare Rajaram as the king within a week of Sambaji's capture. This was a clear message to the Mughals that the Maratha monarchy was alive and kicking and that the Marathas were too.
    Aurangzeb was not going to sit quietly. He sent Itikad Khan (later called Zulfikar Khan) to Raigad to capture Rajaram and his mother.
