Beschreibung

“In this incredibly courageous expose,” Vietnam veterans discuss the long-lasting effects of PTSD and their strategies for coping (Publishers Weekly). Though much has been written about the short-term experience of combat trauma, very few resources discuss how that trauma continues to impact individuals into later life. In this volume, retired Army Chaplain James D. Johnson relates how fifteen Vietnam veterans have been affected by the terror they experienced four decades ago, and how it continues to affect them today.   With candor and vivid detail, they reveal how their combat trauma symptoms still infect their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors on a daily basis. Their stories offer valuable insight for today’s soldiers returning from battle, as well as for their loved ones. The experiences shared here can help them address and cope with the ongoing challenges of PTSD.   Those who still carry these wounds will find that they are not alone, and that there are ways of dealing with the horror, no matter how long ago it took place.

    In this book, we take you to meet history's most unforgettable comedians, namely humanity itself. We will explore how Christopher Columbus, dreaming of reaching India, accidentally set foot in America; how Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake" remark led to a misunderstanding; and how Napoleon, by losing his hat at Waterloo, lost both the battle and his prestige. 
    The book will not only help us understand the past but also show us how unchangeable human nature is, how funny it can be, and how laughter can build connections even in the most serious moments. For instance, think of Archimedes' "Eureka!" moment from his bath; today, this could have been a YouTube sensation. Or imagine Neil Armstrong forgetting his camera on the Moon; this would surely cause a storm on Twitter, perhaps even trending with the hashtag #MoonCamCrisis. 
    Moreover, in these pages, you'll witness the Vikings accidentally discovering America while searching for Iceland, the Wright brothers' flight trials filled with arguments about who would fly first, 
    Edison's comical experiments with the light bulb, and even the morale-boosting power of music during the sinking of the Titanic. Each story is revitalized with modern technology, culture, and humor, offering you a chance to learn about history while laughing out loud. 
     With "Historical LOLs," we will revisit history's funniest moments, embedding them into today's digital age, social media, and humor, recalling the past with a new, laughing perspective. 
    Because history is not just filled with lessons, wars, and revolutions, but also with laughter. 
    This book brings together the comedic anecdotes of the past with today's technological and cultural world, spotlighting history's most ludicrous aspects. 
    Are you ready? 
    Then let's embark on a time-traveling journey to laugh together at history's most comical moments!

    Bizarre Laws & Curious Customs...

    In the UK, we have some bizarre laws that have littered the statute books of our sceptred isle throughout history. Not all of them have been repealed over the centuries. Some of them made perfect sense at the time they were introduced but seen through modern eyes, now appear archaic and draconian. Despite the great efforts of the Law Commission in England and Wales to review and recommend reforms for many of these outdated laws, there are centuries of law that must be painstakingly gone through. 
    As well as some bizarre laws, the UK also has its fair share of curious customs and time-honoured traditions that have been observed for centuries. On the surface, many appear to be nothing more than theatrical pomp and pageantry. However, they are all born from strong rationale. 
    The UK parliament seems to have had a particular penchant for passing laws related to fish and animals, indecency and passing sentences with some humiliating public punishments. 
    This book is a highly entertaining read for anyone who enjoys learning about the more bizarre applications of UK law throughout the centuries, along with some rather macabre consequences along the way. 
    Have you ever heard a bizarre law and thought, that can’t possibly be true? Is it genuine? Was it ever in existence or just an urban myth that became so embellished over time? There are surprisingly, a great many laws still in existence on the statute books today, that would make your jaw drop. Whilst bizarre as these laws may now seem to us, it begs the question, are we in fact, unknowingly breaking these laws on a regular basis? 
    With over 160 bizarre but nevertheless true, laws and customs, you can use this book to satisfy your curiosity about what our ancestors had to contend with over the years, or perhaps as a reference guide for trivia quizzes.
