Synopsis

Along with the good, evil has always existed on the earth since the beginning of time. Evil is a broad term that encompasses a wide range of wrongdoings, such as lying, stealing, various types of crime, murder, rape, corruption, and so on.
Why does a person become a criminal? People interpret this question differently, but it is almost impossible to give a solid reason. Many people say that the environment of the house or society is responsible for this. Many people blame poverty. Many people blame illiteracy. But it has been seen that all kinds of people, poor or rich, educated or uneducated, have been found involved in crime. Seeing this, it can be said that the reasons given by the experts may or may not be responsible for this. But after reading these stories, it can be decided that bad deeds have bad consequences. It is best to avoid them.

The Astonishing History of...

John Harpoon

Throughout history, the act of assassination has been a tool of power, vengeance, and politics, often carried out in the shadows and shrouded in secrecy. From the ancient world to modern times, assassins have played pivotal roles in shaping the course of history. Yet, the nature of assassination has evolved, reflecting the complex interplay of politics, culture, and technology across the centuries. This book seeks to unravel the astonishing history of assassins, exploring their origins, their methods, and the lasting impact they have had on world events.
In ancient civilizations, assassination was often a political tool, employed by rulers, rebels, and conquerors alike. It was a means of securing power, removing enemies, or solidifying control over vast empires. The first known assassins operated in ancient Egypt, Persia, and Rome, where rulers and military leaders sought to eliminate their adversaries in the most covert and deadly ways possible. Over time, the practice would evolve, becoming more organized and ritualized, with the establishment of secretive cults like the Hashashin, who would later influence both the Crusades and the broader history of the Middle East.
As time progressed, the nature of assassination became more sophisticated. In the medieval world, political intrigue was rife, and assassins found themselves at the heart of royal courts, hired to remove monarchs or their rivals in clandestine operations. The Italian Renaissance, with its complex web of political factions, provided fertile ground for the rise of professional assassins. Meanwhile, during the Age of Revolution, assassination became both a tool of rebellion and a strategy for suppressing dissent, influencing the outcomes of revolutions that reshaped Europe and the rest of the world.

Butler to the World - The Book...

Oliver Bullough

This program is read by the author.In his forceful follow-up to Moneyland, Oliver Bullough unravels the dark secret of how Britain placed itself at the center of the global offshore economy and at the service of the worst people in the world.The Suez Crisis of 1956 was the nadir of Britain's twentieth century, the moment when the once-superpower was bullied into retreat. "Great Britain has lost an empire and not yet found a role," said Dean Acherson, a former US secretary of state. Acheson's line has entered into the canon of great quotations: but it was wrong. Britain had already found a role. The leaders of the world just hadn't noticed it yet.Butler to the World reveals how Britain came to assume its role as the center of the offshore economy. Written polemically, but studded with witty references to the butlers of popular fiction, it demonstrates how so many elements of modern Britain have been put at the service of the world's oligarchs.The Biden administration is putting corruption at the heart of its foreign policy, and that means it needs to confront Britain's role as the foremost enabler of financial crime and ill behavior. This audiobook lays bare how London has deliberately undercut U.S. regulations for decades, and calls into question the extent to which Britain can be considered a reliable ally.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
