  Principia Ethica, written in 1903, was a groundbreaking work of moral philosophy. Its author, G.E. Moore, questioned a fundamental pillar of ethics—specifically, what the definition of "good" is. As influential now as it was in its own time-period, Principia Ethica represented an advance in human thinking and is a worthy work for current and future generations to study to gain a better understanding of values and ethics.

  Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a structured, evidence-based therapeutic approach designed to help children and adolescents process and recover from trauma. Combining principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy with trauma-sensitive techniques, TF-CBT has been shown to effectively reduce trauma-related symptoms and improve emotional and behavioral functioning in young individuals. This model empowers children and their families to heal from the effects of trauma, fostering resilience and long-term well-being. 
  Trauma can leave lasting emotional and psychological scars, impacting a child’s development, relationships, and overall quality of life. Experiences such as abuse, neglect, natural disasters, or the loss of a loved one can overwhelm a child’s capacity to cope, leading to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other challenges. TF-CBT addresses these impacts by providing a safe and supportive framework for children to confront their trauma, reframe their thoughts, and build healthier coping mechanisms. 
  The TF-CBT model follows a phased approach, beginning with skill-building and stabilization. This phase includes teaching relaxation techniques, emotional regulation skills, and strategies for managing distressing thoughts. Once a foundation of safety and trust is established, therapy transitions to trauma narration and processing. During this phase, children are guided to share and explore their traumatic experiences in a controlled and supportive environment, allowing them to reframe negative beliefs and reduce the power of painful memories. The final phase focuses on integration and resilience, equipping children and their families with tools to maintain progress and foster positive growth.

  The Children of Athena - Greek...

  A compelling and fascinating portrait of the continuing intellectual tradition of Greek writers and thinkers in the Age of Rome. 
   
  In 146 BC, Greece yielded to the military might of the Roman Republic; sixty years later, when Athens and other Greek city-states rebelled against Rome, the general Lucius Cornelius Sulla destroyed the city of Socrates and Plato, laying waste to the famous Academy where Aristotle had studied. However, the traditions of Greek cultural life would continue to flourish during the centuries of Roman rule that followed, in the lives and work of a distinguished array of philosophers, doctors, scientists, geographers, travellers and theologians. 
   
  Charles Freeman's accounts of such luminaries as the physician Galen, the geographer Ptolemy and the philosopher Plotinus are interwoven with contextual 'interludes' that showcase a sequence of unjustly neglected and richly influential lives. Like the author's The Awakening, The Children of Athena is a cultural history on an epic scale: the story of a rich and vibrant tradition of Greek intellectual inquiry across a period of more than five hundred years, from the second century BC to the start of the fifth century AD.

  The riveting account of the first bloody showdown between Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee—a battle that sealed the fate of the Confederacy and changed the course of American history. 
   
   
   
  At the outset of the Battle of the Wilderness, General Lee's Army of Northern Virginia remained capable of defeating the Army of the Potomac. But two days of relentless fighting in dense Virginia woods, Robert E. Lee was never again able to launch offensive operations against Grant's army. Lee, who faced tremendous difficulties replacing fallen soldiers, lost 11,125 men—or 17% of his entire force. On the opposing side, the Union suffered 17,666 casualties. 
   
   
   
  The alarming casualties do not begin to convey the horror of this battle, one of the most gruesome in American history. The impenetrable forest and gunfire smoke made it impossible to view the enemy. Officers couldn't even see their own men during the fighting. The incessant gunfire caused the woods to catch fire, resulting in hundreds of men burning to death. "It was as though Christian men had turned to fiends, and hell itself had usurped the place of the earth," wrote one officer. When the fighting finally subsided during the late evening of the second day, the usually stoical Grant threw himself down on his cot and cried.
