Sinopse

"Having received my commission, which was dated the S5th of May, I768, I went on board on the 7th, hoisted the pennant, and took charge of the sliip, which then lay in the basin in Deptford Yard." - this is the beginning of the journal in which the legendary captain and discoverer of Australia and New Zealand described his adventures. The book contains the descriptions of the three voyages of Captain Cook, which resulted in the complete round-the-world expedition. Captain and his team were the first Europeans to meet the indigenous people of Australia and Oceania. Captain Cook took a great interest in the locals' style of life and customs. Thus, the book doesn't just present an account of one of the most daring sea expeditions in history but also impressions of the pioneering encounter of seamen with the people of unknown races.

    Kindness - The Gentle Touch -...

    Kindness is often seen as a simple and basic concept, yet it holds immense power in transforming lives. At its core, kindness is the act of being considerate and generous without expecting anything in return. However, its effects extend far beyond the immediate gesture. Research has shown that kindness has a direct influence on mental and physical well-being, not only for the giver but also for the receiver. When we show kindness, whether through small acts like offering a smile or through more profound actions like supporting a loved one in need, we are engaging in a form of healing. The energy we radiate through kindness has the ability to uplift others, create positive connections, and promote emotional growth. 
    The power of kindness is rooted in its ability to create a ripple effect. When someone experiences an act of kindness, it often inspires them to pass it on to others. This chain reaction can spread far and wide, creating a compassionate network that has the potential to change communities and even societies. Kindness has the unique ability to bridge divides and bring people together, creating a sense of unity and understanding. 
    Moreover, studies have shown that kindness has tangible benefits for our own well-being. Acts of kindness activate the brain’s reward system, releasing endorphins, which are known as “feel-good” hormones. This not only boosts mood but also reduces stress, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, when we engage in acts of kindness, we experience a sense of purpose and fulfillment, contributing to a more meaningful life. This emotional uplift can even improve our physical health, as acts of kindness lower blood pressure and enhance heart health by reducing stress levels.

    "Israel: The Last Vestige of European Colonialism in the Middle East" is an in-depth examination of the historical and ongoing impact of European colonialism on the formation and expansion of Israel. Through a critical lens, this book challenges the mainstream narratives that depict Israel as the rightful homeland of the Jewish people and instead explores its colonial roots and the displacement of the indigenous Palestinian population. 
      
    The book delves into the role of European powers, from the Zionist movement's inception in the late 19th century to the political maneuvers that facilitated the establishment of Israel in 1948. It uncovers how Western support, particularly from Britain and the United States, enabled the colonization of Palestine while ignoring the rights of the native population. It also analyzes the demographic changes brought about by waves of European Jewish immigration and presents genetic evidence highlighting the European ancestry of much of the modern Israeli population. 
      
    By exploring topics such as the marginalization of non-European Jewish communities, the ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories, and the influence of Western powers, this book aims to shed light on the historical injustices and colonial dynamics that continue to shape the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Readers will be encouraged to question established narratives, understand the broader geopolitical implications, and consider the pathways to justice and accountability for the Palestinian people.
