  Drawing on unpublished letters and rare sources, this is the true story behind the tragic romance and brutal assassination that ignited World War I.In the summer of 1914, three great empires dominated Europe: Germany, Russia, and Austria-Hungary. Four years later all had vanished in the chaos of World War I. One event precipitated the conflict, and at its heart was a tragic love story. When Austrian heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand married for love against the wishes of the emperor, he and his wife Sophie were humiliated and shunned, yet they remained devoted to each other and to their children. The two bullets fired in Sarajevo not only ended their love story, but also led to war and a century of conflict.Set against a backdrop of glittering privilege, Greg King and Sue Woolmans's The Assassination of the Archduke combines royal history, touching romance, and political murder in a moving portrait of the end of an era. One hundred years after the event, it offers the startling truth behind the Sarajevo assassinations, including Serbian complicity and examines rumors of conspiracy and official negligence. Events in Sarajevo also doomed the couple's children to lives of loss, exile, and the horrors of Nazi concentration camps, their plight echoing the horrors unleashed by their parents' deaths.Challenging a century of myth, The Assassination of the Archduke resonates as a very human story of love destroyed by murder, revolution, and war.With a foreword by Princess Sophie von Hohenberg, great-granddaughter of Archduke Franz Ferdinand

  The foundations of Roman culture are deeply rooted in the ancient traditions, myths, and social structures that shaped one of the most influential civilizations in history. Emerging from a small settlement on the banks of the Tiber River, Rome's development into a powerful republic and then an empire was significantly shaped by its cultural origins. The myths and legends that surrounded the birth of Rome, the establishment of the Roman Republic, and the codification of laws under the Twelve Tables all played crucial roles in shaping Roman identity and values. 
  The mythological origins of Rome are centered around the legendary figures of Romulus and Remus, twin brothers said to have been raised by a she-wolf. According to tradition, Romulus founded Rome after a violent conflict with Remus, establishing the city on April 21, 753 BCE. This foundational myth not only explained the city’s origin but also conveyed key themes of strength, resilience, and divine favor, which resonated throughout Roman culture. Other myths, such as the story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero who journeyed to Italy and became an ancestor of the Romans, linked Roman culture to the ancient and revered traditions of the Trojan War. These legends fostered a sense of pride and divine destiny among the Roman people, reinforcing their belief in their city’s exceptionalism. 
  The establishment of the Roman Republic in 509 BCE marked a turning point in Roman cultural development. Rejecting monarchy, the Romans developed a political system characterized by a complex balance of power among elected officials, the Senate, and the people. This republican model introduced concepts such as civic duty, shared governance, and public accountability, all of which became integral to Roman identity. The Republic’s values shaped the cultural ethos of Rome, emphasizing the importance of law, duty, and loyalty to the state.

  Elixir - A Parisian Perfume...

  For centuries, scientists believed that living matter possessed a special quality—a spirit or essence—that differentiated it from nonliving matter. But by the nineteenth century, the scientific consensus was that the building blocks of one were identical to the building blocks of the other. Elixir tells the story of two young chemists who were not convinced, and how their work rewrote the boundary between life and nonlife. 
   
   
   
  In the 1830s, Édouard Laugier and Auguste Laurent were working in Laugier Père et Fils, the oldest perfume house in Paris. By day they prepared the perfumery's revitalizing elixirs and rejuvenating eaux, drawing on alchemical traditions that equated a plant's vitality with its aroma. In their spare time they hunted the vital force that promised to reveal the secret to life itself. Their ideas, roundly condemned by established chemists, led to the discovery of structural differences between naturally occurring molecules and their synthetic counterparts, even when the molecules were chemically identical. 
   
   
   
  Scientists still can't explain this anomaly, but it may point to critical insights concerning the origins of life on Earth. Rich in sparks and smells, brimming with eccentric characters, experimental daring, and the romance of the Bohemian salon, Elixir is a fascinating cultural and scientific history.

  From the original English translator of The Emerald Tablets of Thoth! Lost esoteric writings on the metaphysical wisdom and occult history behind the pineal gland - or as it is more frequently known: "the Third Eye". Author Doreal reminds us that Christ called it the "Single Eye", and at one time - eons before Old Testament events, when Earth was still shrouded in mists - it was more prominent in man's physiology. However: that's not to say it has vanished, or even ceased to function completely...

  One Classroom at a Time - How...

  A century ago, a typical US college campus was a sanctuary of privilege, with white men of means constituting nearly the entire student population. Today, half of US undergraduates live at or near the poverty line, and universities are more diverse than ever. But teaching and curricula have not caught up, resulting in stark inequities. Black and Hispanic students graduate at lower rates than their white and Asian counterparts, economically insecure and disabled students face persistent disadvantages, and in STEM disciplines gender imbalances remain the norm.One Classroom at a Time provides practical, research-based recommendations for educators who want to narrow such academic gaps. David Gooblar explains the psychological hardships facing many marginalized students and provides detailed remedies. This wide-ranging guide also offers advice for mitigating burdens of financial insecurity and designing classes that work for all students regardless of disabilities. The emphasis throughout is on helping instructors and administrators understand not just the principles of equitable pedagogy but also the reasoning. In the twenty-first century, college courses shouldn't be built for imaginary students of yesteryear. This book shows how we can tailor pedagogy to the students of today, so that all of them can secure the education and the success they deserve.
