Sinossi

The Nuremberg Trials (Vol. 1-22) presents a meticulous account of the groundbreaking proceedings following World War II, where leading Nazi officials were prosecuted for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide. This monumental series deftly captures the gravity of the trials through transcripts, testimonies, and detailed legal arguments, showcasing the Tribunal's commitment to establishing a precedent for international law. The volumes are marked by a sober yet compelling literary style, reflecting the historical urgency and moral weight of the events. The trials not only served as a pivotal moment in legal history but also initiated a broader discourse on justice and accountability in the global context. The International Military Tribunal, formed by Allied powers, was born out of both a necessity for justice and a desire to restore hope in the principles of humanity following the atrocities of the Holocaust and the war's devastation. Composed of notable jurists and military leaders, the Tribunal grappled with the complexities of legal frameworks and moral imperatives, aiming to hold individuals accountable in a manner that transcended national narratives. This challenging endeavor was emblematic of a transformative period in international relations and law. Readers are urged to delve into this essential compilation, which not only chronicles one of history's most significant legal events but also prompts reflection on contemporary issues of justice and human rights. The Nuremberg Trials remain a vital text for those seeking to understand the foundations of international law and the ongoing struggle against impunity.

    We Need To Talk - The truth...

    'As inspiring as it is enraging, Emily Hunt turns trauma into action, exposing a criminal justice system that fails women, and a culture that enables violence against us. A rallying call for change, and a powerful lesson in perseverance from a woman who would not give up.' The Guardian 
    Emily was in a restaurant, having lunch with her father – the next thing she remembers is waking up, naked, in a strange hotel room, next to a man she did not know. She suspected she had been drugged and raped. She later found out she had been filmed without her consent. 
    What happened to her that night could have happened to anyone. What came next happens to far too many victims, as failures by the police, CPS and other parts of the system, led to Emily doubting she would ever find justice. 
    Six years after her attack, Emily is an adviser to the UK Government on sexual violence. Part memoir and part investigation, Emily shines a light on the fault lines of a system and a society that is failing rape victims. We Need To Talk looks at how rape is a mainstream, everyday problem deeply damaging victims, their families, their workplaces and the economy. 
    This is a conversation starter about why we don’t talk about rape; that the only cause of rape is rapists, not rape victims; who commits rape and why; the reasons why society defaults to blaming the victim; and ultimately how we need to change and humanise the way we talk about rape in order to truly hear and support victims and end the current epidemic of sexual violence.

    A funny thing happened on the way to my death... 
    Finding joy through Buddhist practices doesn’t require a pilgrimage to Kathmandu or years of living in a cave. It took me decades, but it needn’t take you as long. This book is my end-of-life effort to point the way. 
    "Written with humility, openness, and humanity, A Buddhist Path to Joy...provides a welcome starting-point for readers who want to go past the superficial layers of pop-culture meditation and yoga through understanding," says the IndieReader review. It's an "excellent overall primer to a living practice of modern Buddhism." 
    This isn't another scholarly treatise on Buddhism. It's dharma from the trenches—honest, accessible, and refreshingly free of spiritual pretense. Pine calls himself a "Jewish Buddhist contrarian," and his irreverent yet profound voice guides readers through everything from AI consciousness and Buddha Nature to the practical art of dying well while fully alive. 
    Whether you're new to Buddhism or a seasoned practitioner, this book offers a modern middle way between rigid tradition and shallow spirituality. Pine proves that awakening isn't reserved for monastery dwellers—it's available to anyone willing to make friends with their mind and embrace the radical ordinariness of joy. 
    "I am awake!" Pine declares with hard-earned confidence. His invitation is simple: you can be too. 
    NOTE: The author narrates this book, with voice actor Robin McAlpine playing the parts of AI platforms in conversation with the author in two chapters. It contains no AI narration.

    In a world full of challenges and conflicts, the quest for peace emerges as an essential and urgent ideal for the survival and prosperity of humanity. While history is marked by wars and violent disputes, the time has come to question and reflect on the true meaning of peace and how we can achieve it in a lasting way.The concept of peace transcends the mere absence of war and violence. Peace covers the creation of an environment conducive to human flourishing, the guarantee of rights and dignity, respect for diversity, social justice and harmony between individuals and nations. Peace is not only a passive state, but an active condition, built with continuous and strategic efforts.In this ebook, we will explore various perspectives on the quest for peace, questioning the paradigm of war as a solution to conflicts and presenting alternatives for building a more peaceful world. Through historical examples, contemporary analyses and insights from visionary thinkers, we will examine how ideas and practices that sustain war can be questioned, challenged and replaced by a culture of peace.We believe that peace is not only a distant utopia, but an achievable goal through collective commitment, dialogue, mutual understanding and cooperation. In this journey, we will unveil the inner and outer dimensions of peace, recognizing its importance in our personal, community and global lives.Throughout the next chapters, we will explore various areas in which the quest for peace can be applied, from diplomacy between nations to the promotion of inner peace in each individual. Together, we will seek to expand our understanding of the complex nature of peace and learn how we can contribute significantly to building a more just, secure and peaceful world for all.We invite you to engage in this journey of reflection and discovery, in which the art of peace is revealed not only as an ideal to be pursued, but as a path that leads us towards a more promising future for all humanity. The quest for peace is in itself an act of courage and wisdom, and it is through it that we will find the strength to transform conflicts into opportunities for growth and harmony, building a world where the true art of peace prevails over the art of war.

    The body is central to our sense of identity. Bodily awareness, says scientist-writer Moheb Costandi, is key to self-consciousness. In Body Am I, Costandi examines how the brain perceives the body, how that perception translates into our conscious experience of the body, and how that experience contributes to our sense of self. Along the way, he explores what can happen when the mechanisms of bodily awareness are disturbed, leading to such phenomena as phantom limbs, alien hands, and amputee fetishes. 
     
     
      
    Costandi explains that the brain generates maps and models of the body that guide how we perceive and use it, and that these maps and models are repeatedly modified and reconstructed. Drawing on recent bodily awareness research, the new science of self-consciousness, and historical milestones in neurology, he describes a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders that result when body and brain are out of sync, including not only the well-known phantom limb syndrome but also phantom breast and phantom penis syndromes; body integrity identity disorder, which compels a person to disown and then amputate a healthy arm or leg; and such eating disorders as anorexia. 
     
     
      
    Wide-ranging and meticulously researched, Body Am I offers new insight into self-consciousness by describing it in terms of bodily awareness.
