Sinopse

This book was created when John Watson McCrindle lived and worked in India as a schoolteacher. His interest in the state poured into years-long research of the ancient Greek and Latin text, where he collected the mentions of India. For this research, he collected materials from the works by Arrian, Q. Curtius, Diodoros, Plutarch, and Justin. The book follows Alexander's invasion in India, with all the great leader's campaigns on his way, including his invasion in Afghanistan, the Panjâb, Sindh, Gedrosia, and Karmania.

    Why were the sordid deeds of Jeffery Epstein concealed for two decades? Why was inquiry into the origin of covid suppressed? Why are social media sites censoring scientists, doctors, journalists, and scholars? 
    Through dozens of absorbing exposés, Red White & Blind reveals the corporate media's deliberate lies, tendentious censorship, and ironic use of the term "disinformation." This deceit has driven faith in corporate news to all-time lows, but it has also birthed an independent media revolution—a New Enlightenment—enabling Americans to see through the walls of "confirmation bias" and perceive the world more directly and accurately than ever before. 
    In this book, you will learn:How the Father of Propaganda convinced Americans to love bananas, World War I, and the color green.Why the notion of "objective, professional journalism" was invented in the early 1900s.How the CIA placed agents in the media and why they likely still do.How to understand family and friends with any set of political views.Why today's social media censorship violates the First Amendment.Why "fact-checking" websites almost always fail.The meaning of "gaslighting," "shadowbanning," and "narrative management."

    Did you know that Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, was also associated with the sea? 
    Born from a strange mixture of divine blood, severed genitals, and seafoam, Aphrodite washed up on the shores of Cyprus long before the emergence of her fellow Olympians. A figure who is as petty as she is relatable, she is not only a key deity of the Greek pantheon, but she is also a central figure in many of the myths we know and love today. 
    With influences possibly rooted in the goddesses Ishtar and Astarte, there are scholars who believe that the concept of Aphrodite was imported to Greece from the Middle East or West Asia. Contact between cultures might have led to her incorporation into the main Greek pantheon, with her foreign origins explaining some of the regional differences regarding her birth and personality. While her connections to beauty and love are her most well-known attributes, places like Sparta and Cyprus also viewed her as a war goddess. 
    This audiobook focuses on myths that are either centered around Aphrodite or feature her as an important character. Because of her volatile nature and quick temper, Aphrodite could just as often be a force for good as she could be a force for evil. While it would be impossible to gather all the different stories related to Aphrodite in their entirety in one collection, this audiobook provides a nice, if somewhat modest, the assortment of narratives that display different facets of this fascinatingly complex goddess. 
    Some of the myths you’ll discover in this audiobook are:Aphrodite’s birth and unexpected marriageThe life and death of AdonisHow Psyche and Eros’ love defied divine wrathPygmalion’s arrogance and his unusual mistressThe beginnings of the greatest war ever fought
