  This book bundle explores the intricate web of human thought, behavior, and social organization. By combining three powerful disciplines—Sociology, Ethnology, and Anthropology—this volume offers a comprehensive understanding of how individuals relate to one another, how cultures form and function, and how human societies evolve. 
  In Sociology, readers investigate the structure of societies, the influence of institutions, and the dynamics of groups and relationships. This section delves into topics like class systems, social norms, urbanization, education, and inequality, revealing how societal forces shape our everyday lives and collective decisions. 
  Ethnology, a branch of anthropology, compares and analyzes cultures across the globe. It seeks patterns in traditions, languages, rituals, and social roles, uncovering what connects humanity while celebrating what makes each culture unique. From kinship systems to religious beliefs, ethnology paints a portrait of human diversity and shared heritage. 
  Finally, Anthropology offers a broader view of human beings throughout history, studying physical traits, prehistoric origins, and cultural practices. It combines biological, archaeological, linguistic, and cultural perspectives to understand what it means to be human—both in ancient times and in modern societies. 
  Whether you're a student of social sciences or simply curious about humanity’s rich cultural landscape, this book equips you with foundational knowledge to better grasp the forces that shape human behavior, identity, and interaction.

  Primordial American Terrorists is a new interpretation of events leading to the end of legalized slavery in the United States. Along the way, it reveals the duality of the terrorist persona, a profile the author pioneered in his earlier book, Sofia Perovskaya, Terrorist Princess. It tells the story, not only of terrorists who struck savagely out of intense passion for a cause, but also of their direct comparison with equally passionate men and women who dedicated themselves to social justice through advocacy and other non-violent methods.

  The dissolution of the Order of the Temple and the persecution of the Knights Templar are still fresh in people's minds. Why did King Philip the Fair and Pope Clement V set out to destroy them? What secrets did the Knights Templar hold? Just as the Da Vinci Code revealed the existence of the Order of the Priory of Sion and left its mark on the world, Jean-Patrick Pourtal takes you on an investigative journey from the 14th century to the present day. The author develops his hypotheses on the historical implications of the Knights Templar, mixing royal dynasty and hidden messages. He returns to mythical sites such as Arginy, Gisors and Rennes-Le-Château, and meets the characters who were instrumental in bringing about the so-called Templar resurgence.
