    Are you tired of pretending to understand Hegel? 
    Do you feel personally attacked by German idealism? 
    Have you ever wondered if “sublation” is just a fancy word for “I have no idea what I’m saying”? 
    Congratulations. You’ve found your people. 
    In Hegel’s Dialectic: Making Simple Ideas Complicated Since 1807, philosophy finally gets the sarcasm-drenched takedown it deserves. This brutally funny and weirdly educational guide walks you through Hegel’s greatest hits—from Phenomenology of Spirit to The Philosophy of Right—without requiring a PhD, a bottle of aspirin, or a séance to contact the Absolute Spirit. 
    Inside, you’ll find: 
    Chapter titles like 
    “The Dialectic for Dummies – Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis, Headache” 
    and 
    “Philosophy of History – Congratulations Germany, You’re the Pinnacle of Human Development!” 
    Explainers that are actually funny, including: 
    Why “The true is the whole” means “Stop quoting me out of context.” 
    How to fake your way through a conversation about Hegel with confidence and zero comprehension. 
    A conclusion so revolutionary, it dares to suggest that clarity in philosophy... might actually be a good thing. 
    Whether you’re a philosophy student, a former philosophy student in recovery, or just someone who enjoys watching intellectual chaos unfold with style, this book is your antidote to academic despair. 
    Read it. Laugh. Learn something. Maybe.

    🌀 "The most fun you can have with German idealism without crying." 
    🧠 "Hegel for people who want to understand him, but also want to live." 
    🕊 "Finally, a philosophy book that hates itself just the right amount."

    A straight stud is starting to break… 
    Wade still struts around school in his varsity jacket like he’s the king of the world. Laughing it up with his jock buddies. Making out with his cheerleader girlfriend. Bullying the “queers”. But behind the eyes he’s starting to get desperate. 
    Wade hasn’t had sex in a week. Any kind of sex. Not since I put his manhood under lock and key. I wonder how much longer he can take it. Another day? Two? Pretty soon, the frustration will be too much, and he’ll do anything I want just to get some release. 
    There’s only one problem: 
    It turns out that I’m not the only one who has Wade in training. And somebody else wants to break him first.

    A Maritime History of Scotland...

    The period 1650 to 1790 was such a turbulent one for Scottish seafarers that much of this fast-flowing narrative reads like Treasure Island. Colourful characters abound in a story teeming with incident and excitement: John Paul Jones descends upon the Scottish coast creating widespread panic; press gangs prowl the coastal towns; wartime conditions turn merchantmen into privateers fighting the French, the Spanish and the American Colonists – almost anyone flying a different flag; quaintly named vessels like The Provoked Cheesemaker are on the lookout for trouble. And the stakes were high. Glasgow became wealthy through the tobacco trade. Glasgow merchantmen could beat the English ships and sail to Chesapeake Bay in record time.
    Eric Graham traces the development of the Scottish marine and its institutions during a formative period, when state intervention and warfare at sea in the pursuit of merchantilist goals largely determined the course of events. He charts Scotland's frustrated attempts to join England in the Atlantic economy and so secure her prosperity – an often bitter relationship that culminated in the Darien Disaster. In the years that followed, maritime affairs were central to the move to embrace the full incorporating Act of 1707. After 1707, Scottish maritime aspirations flourished under the protection of the British Navigation Acts and the windfalls of the endemic warfare at sea.
