Sinossi

The *Arthashastra*, authored by Kautilya, also known as Chanakya, is a profound treatise on statecraft, economics, and military strategy that dates back to the 4th century BCE. This seminal text is written in a pragmatic style, employing a blend of prose and verse that facilitates the exploration of its complex ideas. Situating itself in the literary context of ancient Indian political thought, the *Arthashastra* delves into governance principles, the nature of power, and the art of diplomacy, making it a foundational work for those interested in political philosophy and state administration. Kautilya, a revered philosopher and political strategist, served as an adviser to the Mauryan emperor Chandragupta. Drawing from his extensive knowledge and experiences in the royal court, Kautilya composed the *Arthashastra* to guide rulers in navigating the intricacies of governance and power. His insights reflect a deep understanding of human nature, conflict, and the socio-political landscape of his time, which undoubtedly influenced his writings on realpolitik and ethics in leadership. For scholars, policymakers, and anyone intrigued by the intersection of politics and ethics, the *Arthashastra* offers timeless wisdom and strategies that remain relevant in contemporary governance. Readers will find inspiration in Kautilya's astute observations, making this work a critical addition to any library focused on political theory, history, or international relations.

    In order to be inspired and to keep going, you can read endless books, watch motivational videos, listen to the coolest podcasts, attend amazing events, and surround yourself with super motivated people, but very often it's not the amount of time you spend doing all those things that keeps you motivated and fascinated; it's the unique moments or a single sentence you remember from a whole weekend seminar or a quote you have heard that somehow resonated with you and now has become a part of your life.

    A behind-the-scenes chronicle of a beloved American media empire and the men behind it, including Martin Goodman, Stan Lee, and Jack Kirby.  
     
    A New York Times–Bestseller 
     
    “A definitive portrait of comics in American culture.” —The Wall Street Journal 
     
    In the early 1960s, a struggling company called Marvel Comics presented a cast of brightly costumed characters distinguished by smart banter and compellingly human flaws: Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, the X-Men. Over the course of a half a century, Marvel’s epic universe would become the most elaborate fiction narrative in history and serve as a modern American mythology for millions of readers. 
     
    For the first time, Marvel Comics reveals the outsized personalities behind the scenes, including Martin Goodman, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and generations of editors, artists, and writers who struggled with commercial mandates, a fickle audience, and—over matters of credit and control—one another. Marvel Comics is a story of fertile imaginations, lifelong friendships, action-packed fistfights, and third-act betrayals—a narrative of one of the most extraordinary, beloved, and beleaguered pop-culture entities in America’s history. 
     
    “Sean Howe’s history of Marvel makes a compulsively readable, riotous and heartbreaking version of my favorite story, that of how a bunch of weirdoes changed the world . . . That it’s all true is just frosting on the cake.” —Jonathan Lethem

    Modern trade unionists in Scotland perform roles in every imaginable location and are drawn from all backgrounds. They campaign to win on issues facing the colleague next to them or a comrade thousands of miles away.

Alan McCredie's charismatic portraits of 50 other activists from the trade union movement provide a complementary visual narrative.
    This very human book pulses with the energy of Scotland's trade union movement, which has achieved so much and still has more to do.

    Whether you have a bank account in the negative or a million dollars to invest, this book will not be like any other real estate guide you’ve read before. André Stewart not only gives you every single tool to make money in any real estate economic climate, but he also does so while navigating an unprecedented modern economy. If you want to be financially free in an unparalleled time in the history of any country, this is the book for you. 
    In The Real Estate Investing Diet, André Stewart shares practical tools and techniques for gaining financial independence and generating long-term wealth through real estate investing—without using your own personal credit or up front capital. These approaches have been honed from advising tens of thousands of CEOs and executives while working in the banking industry, but this book was written so everyone—from people in poverty to senior executives—can quit their job or supplement their income. There’s no reason everyone can’t live the life they deserve, or feel that they must be chained to a desk in order to succeed. Yet, many people believe this, and the purpose of this book is to help you discover ways to remove limiting beliefs that subconsciously hold you back from reaching your financial goals. 
    To accomplish this, The Real Estate Investing Diet focuses on breaking down your money blueprint, enhancing your mental preparation, and creating the fundamental foundation needed for real estate investing. This book includes calendars, examples, and a strategic plan to help remove the underlying root cause that prevents people from being successful in their financial lives.
