Sinopse

Barley Threshing Days explores the world of traditional barley harvesting and its deep roots in rural society. More than a simple agricultural task, barley harvesting shaped economic structures, social hierarchies, and cultural traditions within village life. The book reveals that traditional methods were not just about crop yields, but also about fostering communal identity, where harvest festivals and rituals reinforced social bonds.

 
The book traces the evolution of harvesting methods, from hand-pulling to the adoption of threshing machines, examining the impact on labor practices and social relationships. For example, the introduction of new agricultural technology significantly altered traditional labor practices, changing how rural communities functioned.

 
Beginning with an introduction to barley cultivation, the book progresses to explore social structures, labor practices, cultural traditions, and the impact of mechanization, offering a comprehensive view of this vital aspect of agricultural history. Drawing on historical manuals, oral histories, and archival photographs, Barley Threshing Days adopts a narrative non-fiction approach, blending rigorous research with engaging storytelling.

 
It is intended for those interested in understanding the complex relationship between human labor, agricultural technology, and the evolving social fabric of rural communities, making it valuable for anyone seeking to understand the cultural traditions of rural communities.

    In our culture, we do not know how to deal with grief, and we see it as something to fix, not something that needs tending. Grieving people feel misunderstood and hopeless, while those who want to help them feel lost and clueless. Megan Devine, a psychotherapist, had been trying to help people deal with grief for a decade before suddenly losing her partner and realizing that her understanding of grief was broken. In It’s OK That You’re Not OK (2017), she re-examines the often chaotic process of grief, based on extensive research and her own experience. Building on her new understanding, Devine offers reassurance and guidance for anyone who is grieving and those who want to help them.

    In the United States, politics has become increasingly nationalized in recent years as voter decision-making is now driven by partisan or national political forces rather than the attributes of individual candidates. Indeed, voters now seem more concerned with which of the two national parties will be in power across all levels of government as opposed to which candidate will represent them individually. 
     
     
     
    Nationalized Politics asks and answers the question, "how has nationalization influenced elections across different political eras?" Jamie L. Carson, Joel Sievert, and Ryan D. Williamson look at historical variation in nationalization through an analysis of congressional elections from 1840 to 2020. By examining roughly 180 years of elections, the authors leverage considerable differences in electoral competition, electoral rules, nationalization, polarization, and partisan advantage via the incumbency advantage. Moreover, Carson, Sievert, and Williamson employ a unique survey design to capture citizen attitudes toward the nationalization of politics to further consider the question of how nationalization is currently shaping politics. Providing a comprehensive history of US congressional elections, Nationalized Politics illustrates the roots of the current electoral landscape in the US.

    In Israel and the Cyber Threat, Charles D. ("Chuck") Freilich, Matthew S. Cohen, and Gabi Siboni provide a detailed and comprehensive study of Israel's cyber strategy, tracing it from its origins to the present. They analyze Israel's highly advanced civil and military cyber capabilities and organizational structures to offer insights into what other countries can learn from Israel's experience. To achieve this, they explore how and why Israel has been able to build a remarkable cyber ecosystem and turn itself, despite its small size, into a global cyber power. The book further examines the major cyber threats facing Israel, including the most in-depth look at Iranian cyber policies and attacks; Israel's defensive and offensive capabilities and the primary attacks it has conducted; capacity building; international cooperation; and the impact of Israel's strategic culture on its cyber prowess. By placing Israel's actions in the realm of international relations theory, the book sheds light on many of the major questions in the field regarding cyber policies. 
     
     
     
    The most authoritative work to date on Israeli cyber strategy, this book provides a comprehensive look at the major actions Israel has taken in cyberspace. It also places them in the broader context of global cyber developments to help listeners understand state behavior in cyberspace.

    Rosicrucian Doctrines and Tenets

    Trustworthy information is unavailable concerning the actual philosophical beliefs, political aspirations, and humanitarian activities of the Rosicrucian Fraternity. Today, as of old, the mysteries of the Society are preserved inviolate by virtue of their essential nature; and attempts to interpret Rosicrucian philosophy are but speculations, anything to the contrary notwithstanding. 
    Evidence points to the probable existence of two distinct Rosicrucian bodies: an inner organization whose members never revealed their identity or teachings to the world, and an outer body under the supervision of the inner group. In all probability, the symbolic tomb of Christian Rosencreutz, Knight of the Golden Stone, was in reality this outer body, the spirit of which is in a more exalted sphere. For a period of more than a century subsequent to 1614, the outer body circulated tracts and manifestoes under either its own name or the names of various initiated members. The purpose of these writings was apparently to confuse and mislead investigators, and thus effectively to conceal the actual designs of the Fraternity.
