Sinopsis

Megalithic Quarrying Methods explores how ancient civilizations, lacking modern technology, quarried, moved, and erected massive stone structures. It investigates the sophisticated techniques used to extract colossal blocks, often weighing tons, and transport them across vast distances. The book reveals that successful megalithic construction depended on understanding material properties, innovative tool designs, and organized labor, challenging the perception of ancient builders as primitive.

 
The book examines quarrying methods across different regions and geological conditions, using archaeological excavations and geological surveys as evidence. It highlights experimental archaeology, where replicating ancient techniques provides insights into the practical challenges faced by builders. For example, researchers have recreated ancient methods to understand how Egyptians moved massive stones for the Pyramids.

 
The book progresses by first introducing stone types, then detailing quarrying methods, analyzing transportation techniques, and finally examining the societal impacts of megalithic construction. It bridges archaeology, engineering, and history, offering a comprehensive understanding of ancient technology and construction.

Dmt - The Name Your Soul Knows

Marcus Riauka

What if the most powerful technology for understanding consciousness has been growing in plants on every continent since before recorded history — and the only thing keeping you from it is a filter your brain runs by default? This book is about what happens when that filter drops. Framework-forward: 
Every previous psychedelic book documented the experience. This one explains the architecture behind it. 
Positioning against Strassman specifically: 
Strassman injected sixty volunteers and documented what happened. This book begins where his ended — with why. 
Personal authority angle: 
Written not by a clinician observing from outside, but by a consciousness researcher who went in — repeatedly — and built a theoretical model from what he found there. 
The gap in the market: 
The psychedelic renaissance has produced extraordinary clinical data and almost no philosophy capable of containing it. This book is the philosophy. 
Most provocative: 
Other books will tell you these experiences are profound. This one tells you what they are actually showing you — and why the answer changes everything. 
Most concise: 
The experience finally has a theory equal to what it shows you.

Kai Aubrey

The vault lies deep beneath the palace. 
Alric, the Elran dancer, opens the immense stone door, guiding Heath and Caio into the vast chamber. 
“The ancient inhabitants of this desert imbued items with a great number of dark powers. Some of these enchantments were distinctly...sexual.” 
Caio’s pale cheeks flush deep pink as he realizes what kind of objects are locked away here. 
The young dancer runs his fingertips over an ominous, silver-trimmed black box, its obsidian surface glittering temptingly in the torchlight. 
“They say it houses a spirit. A creature that can provide endless pleasure.” Alric lowers his voice. “But only a powerful mage can open it...someone like you.”

Death in Derry - Martin...

Jonathan Trigg

When civil rights protests in the 1960s gave way to armed struggle, the Provisional IRA in Derry – both city and county – led the fight against the British security forces. In the city Martin McGuinness – a young butcher’s assistant from the Bogside – quickly rose through the ranks, launching a bombing campaign that reduced the city centre to rubble. In tandem, the IRA’s active service units fought the British Army in the streets and alleys of the Bogside, Creggan, Shantallow and the Waterside. Out in the townlands, a new generation from the county’s traditional republican families waged an equally ruthless war against their neighbours in the RUC and UDR. The Derry Brigade’s success would help propel McGuinness to the very top of the IRA’s Army Council. 
 
By the early 1980s the Derry Brigade appeared untouchable. However, in reality, Special Branch and British Intelligence had infiltrated it from top to bottom and almost destroyed the brigade. By the mid-1990s its war was all but over, its ranks decimated by death and incarceration. This is the story of that war told by those from all sides who survived it.
