Sinossi

In "The Civil War," Julius Caesar offers a firsthand account of the conflict between the Roman Republic and its internal factions, deftly navigating the tumultuous political landscape of his time. Written in a lucid and compelling prose style, the text exemplifies the use of direct speech and vivid detail to bring the events to life, revealing not only military strategies but also the socio-political implications of the war. Its importance lies in its dual role as a historical document and a literary masterpiece, echoing the themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal within the greater context of Roman history. Julius Caesar, a military general and politician, draws from his own experiences in the field to craft this narrative, solidifying his position as not only a pivotal figure in Roman history but also as a skilled author. His acute understanding of military tactics, coupled with his political aspirations, significantly informed his portrayal of the events, reflecting his motivations and the complexities of leadership in times of civil strife. Caesar's reflection on his adversaries, such as Pompey, provides deep insight into the personal dynamics that fueled the conflict. For readers interested in the intricacies of power and governance, "The Civil War" serves as an essential text. It not only illuminates the historical circumstances of a pivotal period in Roman history but also invites readers to consider the enduring nature of conflict and the fragility of political alliances. This work is not just a military account but an exploration of human ambition and the moral dilemmas that accompany it.

    LGBTQ+ people have more options than ever before when it comes to starting a family, but a lack of both focused information and mainstream representation can leave parents, prospective parents, friends, and relatives in the dark. 
     
     
     
    Authors Lotte Jeffs and Stu Oakley spoke to dozens of experts and queer families, and this hugely needed book is the product of those conversations and their own experiences of becoming parents through IUI and adoption respectively. 
     
     
     
    Ninety percent of queer parenting is just . . . parenting but being LGBTQ+ when you're a parent does bring with it a host of conundrums that mainstream guides—which tend to assume heterosexuality—do not address. 
     
     
     
    From adoption, surrogacy, fertility treatment, and other routes to parenthood, to donors, trans parenting, how to deal with family-focused homophobia, coming out at the school gates, and much more, The Queer Parent is a groundbreaking toolkit for LGBTQ+ parents, parents-to-be, and anyone looking to support their journey. It is a book that redefines the family for the modern age.

    Here we are! You have managed to get a job interview by dint of sending CVs like an automatic machine gun! 
    The time has come! After so much wandering, a company has decided to see you first-hand! 
    All the hours spent filing your resume beyond belief, every evening spent behind the PC sifting through job offers, have finally served a purpose! 
    But now? 
    What to do? 
    At school, at university, no one taught you how to approach a job interview. 
    Panic: what answer and how to answer to the questions, talk little or a lot, dress elegant or sober, remain motionless or move with the body, shake hands or not, browse the company's website or get to the interview in a naive way, in order to be yourself? 
    If we would like to give an answer to all the mental blowjobs that will turn in your head, we just have to say that the truth is simple, damn simple. 
    But, as usual, when something is too simple, we don't consider it a viable option! 
    I'll tell you the secret right away! 
    To successfully pass a job interview, you need study, method and experience: 
    - study, because we need to examine our potential employer thoroughly, understand what he is looking for and what he expects from us 
    - method, because without a plan you can't go anywhere. Don't improvise. Train like a boxer. You are on the ring, and that employment contract must be yours! 
    - experience, because the first few times you will miss it. You will be discarded. Not because you're not good for that job, but because you still won't have the experience of a commander who has won 100 battles. It is normal, do not be discouraged. The sooner you understand where you went wrong in the first few battles, the sooner you will start winning! 
    Are you there so far? 
    Well, you are ready to listen to the audiobook!
