  We often think about Newton when we see an apple falling from a tree: The man who came up with the gravity theory, a physics scientist who gave said event and others significant thought. 
  Sir Isaac Newton was an English mathematician, physicist, astronomer, theologian, and writer who was commonly seen as one of the best mathematicians, physicists, and most prominent researchers of perpetuity. He was hailed as a "natural theorist" in his time. He was a considerable player in the Knowledge thought movement. In the year 1687, he wrote Mathematical Concepts of Natural Philosophy, which established classical mechanics. Newton also made considerable advances to optics, and he shares credit for developing infinitesimal calculus with German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. 
  Newton created the concepts of movement and universal gravitation in Principia, which controlled clinical thought till the idea of relativity surpassed it. Newton used his math clarification of gravity to determine Kepler's laws of planetary movement, represent tides, comet trajectories, equinox precession, and other phenomena, showing the heliocentricity of the Planetary system. He showed that the exact same ideas could be used to clarify the movement of items in the world and celestial bodies. The geodetic observations of Maupertuis, La Condamine, and others later substantiated Newton's reduction that the Earth is an oblate spheroid, convincing most European researchers of Newtonian mechanics' supremacy over older systems.

  The Agony of Eros

  Byung-Chul Han, Alain Badiou

  An argument that love requires the courage to accept self-negation for the sake of discovering the Other. 
   
   
  Byung-Chul Han is one of the most widely read philosophers in Europe today, a member of the new generation of German thinkers that includes Markus Gabriel and Armen Avanessian. In The Agony of Eros, a bestseller in Germany, Han considers the threat to love and desire in today's society. For Han, love requires the courage to accept self-negation for the sake of discovering the Other. In a world of fetishized individualism and technologically mediated social interaction, it is the Other that is eradicated, not the self. In today's increasingly narcissistic society, we have come to look for love and desire within the “inferno of the same.”  
   
   
  Han offers a survey of the threats to Eros, drawing on a wide range of sources—Lars von Trier's film Melancholia, Wagner's Tristan und Isolde, Fifty Shades of Grey, Michel Foucault (providing a scathing critique of Foucault's valorization of power), Martin Buber, Hegel, Baudrillard, Flaubert, Barthes, Plato, and others. Han considers the “pornographication” of society, and shows how pornography profanes eros; addresses capitalism's leveling of essential differences; and discusses the politics of eros in today's “burnout society.” To be dead to love, Han argues, is to be dead to thought itself. 
   
   
  Concise in its expression but unsparing in its insight, The Agony of Eros is an important and provocative entry in Han's ongoing analysis of contemporary society. 
   
   
  This remarkable essay, an intellectual experience of the first order, affords one of the best ways to gain full awareness of and join in one of the most pressing struggles of the day: the defense, that is to say—as Rimbaud desired it—the “reinvention” of love. 
   
  —from the foreword by Alain Badiou 
   
   
  This audiobook is skillfully read by Peter Noble, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. Audio engineering by Allie McSwain.

  Who Will Defend Europe? - An...

  Who will defend Europe? The answer should be obvious: Europe should be able to defend itself. Yet, for decades, most of the continent enjoyed a defense holiday, outsourcing protection to the United States while banking an increasingly illusory 'peace dividend'. Now, after three decades of reducing armed forces and drawing down defense industries, Europe finds itself close to unprotected—while Russia is intent on continuing its war of expansion, and the United States is distracted and divided. 
   
   
   
  In this urgent, vital book, Keir Giles lays out the stark choices facing leaders and societies as they confront the return of war in Europe. He explains how the West's unwillingness to confront Russia has nurtured the threat, and that Putin's ambition puts the whole continent at risk. He assesses the role and deficiencies of NATO as a guarantor of hard security, and whether the European Union or coalitions of the willing can fill the gap. Above all, Giles emphasizes the need for new leadership in defense of the free world after the United States has stepped aside—and warns that the United Kingdom's brief moment of setting the pace for Europe has already been squandered.
