  The Metabolife Story - The Rise...

  When Michael J. Ellis saw how cancer was ravaging his father’s body, he was desperate to find something—anything—that would help ease the dying man’s suffering. It just so happened that Ellis discovered such a method in herbal remedies—but in a fateful twist, his research inadvertently uncovered something else entirely, a secret that would also impact American society: a weight loss product that actually worked! 
  Five years later, in 1998, Ellis stood at the head of Metabolife International, Inc., one of the most successful and notorious herbal supplement companies in the world. Millions of Americans were taking its revolutionary product, Metabolife 356, to lose weight. By all accounts, it was the perfect Cinderella story—but this fairy tale would not have a happy ending. 
  Metabolife 356, with its remarkable success and happy customers, had cut into the profits of the nation’s most powerful pharmaceutical companies. In short order, the pharma industry’s watchdog, the FDA, intervened, turning its sights on Metabolife and the product’s active ingredient, ephedrine. For all Americans, the FDA’s actions have had shattering consequences. 
  This is the true story of one of the most audacious thefts in corporate history; a story about how a massive clerical error led to one of the largest IRS raids in history; a story about how no man, however guiltless, is immune to the awful power of the media. 
  Above all, this is the story of one federal agency’s successful attempt to steal a safe and effective product from the American public through little more than propaganda and misinformation.

  The Suicide Battalion

  The men of the 46th Canadian Infantry Battalion were some of the most effective shock troops of the Allied forces in the Great War. They drove back German forces wherever they met and refused ever to surrender. Such tactics struck fear in their enemies, yet, it came at a tremendous cost. Of the 5374 officers and men who passed through the unit, a total of 4917, or 91 per cent, were either killed or wounded. 
   
   
   
  J. L. McWilliams and R. James Steel chart the history of this battalion from when it was formed on November 7, 1914 through all of its major battles, including the Somme, Vimy Ridge, Hill 70, Passchendaele, Amiens, the Hundred Days Offensive and breaking through the Hindenburg Line, to when it was finally disbanded at the end of the war. Rather than focus simply on the grand strategies of generals, McWilliams and Steel use numerous personal accounts, both written at the time and afterwards, to depict what life was life for the regular soldier of the 46th Battalion during these treacherous years spent in muddy trenches in France and Belgium.

  Empathy - Understanding and...

  Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person. It is often considered a fundamental aspect of human connection, influencing how we relate to those around us. Whether it's offering a comforting word, understanding someone’s pain, or celebrating another's joy, empathy allows us to build meaningful relationships. It is more than just recognizing another person’s emotions; it involves feeling with them and, when appropriate, offering support. In a world where individuals often experience feelings of isolation or disconnection, empathy is a bridge that can bring people closer. 
  Empathy is not simply an emotional reaction; it is a skill that can be nurtured and developed. It plays a key role in many aspects of life, from personal relationships to professional environments. In fact, research has shown that individuals with a higher level of empathy are often better at problem-solving and conflict resolution. By understanding others' emotions, they are more likely to approach situations with sensitivity and tact, which leads to better outcomes in both personal and professional settings. 
  The science behind empathy is fascinating. Studies in neuroscience have revealed that when we experience empathy, certain areas of our brain light up, particularly the regions involved in emotional processing. This means that empathy is not just a learned behavior, but something deeply ingrained in our biological makeup. It involves both the emotional brain, which processes feelings, and the cognitive brain, which helps us interpret and understand those feelings. This dual process allows us to connect with others in a way that goes beyond intellectual understanding, allowing us to resonate with their experiences on a deeper, more personal level.

  Innovating Victory - Naval...

  Innovating Victory studies how the world's navies incorporated new technologies into their ships, their practices, and their doctrine. It does this by examining six core technologies fundamental to twentieth-century naval warfare including new platforms, new weapons, and new tools. Each chapter considers the state of a subject technology when it was first used in war and what navies expected of it. It then looks at the way navies discovered and developed the technology's best use, in many cases overcoming disappointed expectations. It considers how a new technology threatened its opponents, not to mention its users, and how those threats were managed. Innovating Victory shows that the use of technology is more than introducing and mastering a new weapon or system. Differences in national resources, force mixtures, priorities, perceptions, and missions forced nations to approach the problems presented by new technologies in different ways. Navies that specialized in specific technologies often held advantages over enemies in some areas but found themselves disadvantaged in others. Vincent P. O'Hara and Leonard R. Heinz present new perspectives and explore the process of technological introduction and innovation in a way that is relevant to today's navies, which face challenges and questions even greater than those of 1904, 1914, and 1939.
