Summary

This is a book by the German philosopher Immanuel Kant, published in 1783, two years after the first edition of his Critique of Pure Reason. One of Kant's shorter works, it contains a summary of the Critique's main conclusions, sometimes by arguments Kant had not used in the Critique. Kant characterizes his more accessible approach here as an "analytic" one, as opposed to the Critique's "synthetic" examination of successive faculties of the mind and their principles.
Available since: 11/26/2023.

    Do You Worry All the Time? 
 
 
 
Have you tried to control your thoughts and get your worrying under control? Did it work? If it didn't, try this simple exercise: Take thirty seconds, right here and now, and don't think about something you recently worried about. Think about anything and everything else, but don't think about that worry. 
 
 
 
How did you do? Like most of us, you probably could think of little else except whatever it was you worried about, no matter how hard you tried. This is the problem with trying to control your thoughts: Your attempts to stop worrying very often lead you to repeat and refresh the very worries you're trying to dispel. 
 
 
 
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), a revolutionary new approach to resolving a wide range of psychological problems, can help you break the cycle of chronic worry. ACT stresses letting go of your attempts to avoid, change, and get rid of worry. Instead, it shows you how to accept your feelings as they occur, without judgment. You'll learn to "de-fuse" from your worries, observing and then letting them go. Then you'll explore and commit to acting on your values, thereby creating a rich life for yourself—even with the occasional worry.

    World War II was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind. Highly relevant today, World War II has much to teach us, not only about the profession of arms, but also about military preparedness, global strategy, and combined operations in the coalition war against fascism. This book follows military operations of the US Army in the Pacific from 22 February 1943 to 21 November 1944. 
From the Allied vantage point early in the spring of 1943, progress clearly had been made in the wars against Germany and Italy in Europe and the Mediterranean and Japan in the Pacific. During the winter an entire German army had been killed or captured deep within the Soviet Union at Stalingrad. In Africa, once-invincible Axis forces were in full-scale retreat, eventually to surrender in mid-May. The specter of continued Axis expansion in Europe was no longer the threat it had been a year before.
Halfway around the world, the Japanese offensive in the Pacific also had crested. The May 1942 Battle of the Coral Sea, followed quickly by the great American victory at Midway, had cost Japan the strategic initiative. By February 1943 American and Australian troops had thwarted a Japanese pincer movement in Papua New Guinea, defeating an overland drive on Port Moresby, evicting the Japanese from Buna, and beating back an attack against Wau. That same month, hundreds of miles to the east in the Solomon Islands, American troops had wrested Guadalcanal from the Japanese. Victory required seven months of torturous fighting, but it secured the Allied line of communications to Australia. The Allied High Command now could take advantage of its improved strategic position...

    Narcissism is a term often used to describe individuals who are excessively self-absorbed, lack empathy, and crave admiration. While everyone exhibits some level of self-interest, narcissism exists on a spectrum, ranging from healthy self-confidence to Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), a diagnosable mental health condition. Understanding narcissism requires examining its characteristics, origins, and the myths that often surround it. 
At its core, narcissism is marked by a grandiose sense of self-importance, a deep need for validation, and an inability to acknowledge the emotions of others. Narcissists often present themselves as charming, confident, and charismatic, but beneath the surface, they struggle with fragile self-esteem. Their self-worth depends on external validation, making them highly reactive to criticism or perceived rejection. 
The origins of narcissistic traits can often be traced back to childhood experiences. Some narcissists are products of excessive praise and entitlement, while others develop these traits as a defense mechanism against neglect or abuse. A child raised in an environment where love is conditional—based on achievement or obedience—may grow up believing their worth is tied to external success rather than intrinsic value. In some cases, narcissistic tendencies are reinforced by societal pressures that prioritize status, power, and material success over genuine emotional connection.
