Summary

For thousands of years, across cultures and civilizations, the handshake has endured as one of the most ubiquitous and significant nonverbal gestures in the grand tapestry of human interaction. Its origins can be traced back as far as the 5th century BC, when we find the earliest artistic depictions of handshakes exchanged between ancient Greeks on ceramic vases and reliefs.

    Tarascan Empire - The Fierce...

    The Tarascan Empire flourished in the rugged and resource-rich region of western Mexico, primarily in what is now the state of Michoacán. Unlike the arid landscapes of central Mexico dominated by the Aztecs, the Tarascan homeland was defined by volcanic highlands, fertile valleys, and vast lakes, particularly Lake Pátzcuaro, which played a central role in their civilization. The geography of this region not only shaped their way of life but also provided a natural defense against external threats, including the expansionist ambitions of the Aztecs. 
    The varied landscape of Michoacán consisted of towering mountains, deep forests, and fertile plateaus. This diverse terrain allowed the Tarascans to develop a robust agricultural system, cultivating maize, beans, squash, and chili peppers, which formed the foundation of their diet. The presence of rivers and lakes further supported fishing and provided fresh water, making settlements around these water bodies highly strategic. Lake Pátzcuaro, in particular, was not only an economic and social hub but also held deep religious significance. It was believed to be the gateway to the underworld in Tarascan mythology, reinforcing its central role in spiritual life. 
    Natural resources played a crucial role in the rise of the Tarascan Empire. The region was rich in minerals, especially copper and obsidian, which were vital for both tools and weaponry. Unlike the Aztecs, whose military strength relied on wooden clubs and stone blades, the Tarascans developed advanced metalworking techniques, producing copper axes, bronze weapons, and intricate ornaments. This technological advantage gave them a distinct edge in warfare and trade, allowing them to maintain independence from their more dominant neighbors.

    On Disinformation - How to Fight...

    The effort to destroy facts and make America ungovernable didn't come out of nowhere. It is the culmination of seventy years of strategic denialism. In On Disinformation, Lee McIntyre shows how the war on facts began, and how ordinary citizens can fight back against the scourge of disinformation that is now threatening the very fabric of our society. Drawing on his twenty years of experience as a scholar of science denial, McIntyre explains how autocrats wield disinformation to manipulate a populace and deny obvious realities, why the best way to combat disinformation is to disrupt its spread, and most importantly, how we can win the war on truth. 
     
     
     
    McIntyre goes through the history of strategic denialism to show how we arrived at this precarious political moment and identifies the creators, amplifiers, and believers of disinformation. On Disinformation lays out ten everyday practical steps that we can take as ordinary citizens—from resisting polarization to pressuring our Congresspeople to regulate social media—as well as the important steps our government (if we elect the right leaders) must take. 
     
     
     
    On Disinformation empowers us to save our republic from autocracy before it is too late.
