Sinopsis

Community Bond Formation examines how individuals connect to build strong communities, especially vital given current social fragmentation. It explains how social networks act as pathways for resources and support, influencing community results, and how social capital, stemming from connections, encourages unity. The book uniquely integrates sociology with urban planning and public health insights, providing a comprehensive view of community dynamics, and shows that community strength isn’t random but shaped by people, policies, and environments.

 
The book progresses logically, first introducing core ideas like shared values and trust. It then looks at how organizations and leaders promote community cohesion. Finally, it tackles community-building challenges in diverse settings such as inequality and gentrification, offering strategies to foster community bonds.

 
The book uses diverse evidence, including social network analysis and case studies, to provide new perspectives on building stronger, more resilient communities.

Holy Wars describes three thousand years of war in the Holy Land with the unique approach of focusing on pivotal battles or campaigns, beginning with the Israelites' capture of Jericho and ending with Israel's last full-fledged assault against Lebanon. Its chapters stop along the way to examine key battles fought by the Philistines, Assyrians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Crusaders, and Mamluks—the latter clash, at Ayn Jalut, comprising the first time the Mongols suffered a decisive defeat. 
 
 
  
The modern era saw the rise of the Ottomans and an incursion by Napoleon, who only found bloody stalemate outside the walls of Akko. The Holy Land became a battlefield again in World War I when the British fought the Turks. The nation of Israel was forged in conflict during its 1948 War of Independence, and subsequently found itself in desperate combat, often against great odds, in 1956 and 1967, and again in 1973, when it was surprised by a massive two-pronged assault. 
 
 
  
By focusing on the climax of each conflict, while carefully setting each stage, Holy Wars examines an extraordinary breadth of military history—spanning in one volume the evolution of warfare over the centuries, as well as the enduring status of the Holy Land as a battleground.

"Bend it like Baba Ramdev", "The Breathing Baba", "The Man who Revolves his Stomach," "The Indian Yogi who Winks, "The Funny Indian Yogi" … are just a bunch of the many names he has been tagged with. We have had yoga masters and yoga maestros for centuries. Baba Ramdev will forever be known as the man who showed solutions, do-able solutions, to chronic ailments of people in the bedrooms of their own homes.

"Till the last breath, a man must never give up. With willpower and pureness, he should keep on going towards his goal and one day he will find his own destiny." These are the words of a man who made yoga what it is today—a household application that is not only accessible but has become a lifestyle.

Baba Ramdev perceived yoga as a routine regime, as an alternative to medicine, and a pseudoscientific technique to cure any illness in the lives of ordinary people. How could everyone not be accessing it, then?

Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb: The Lives and Careers of Major League Baseball’s First Superstars - cover

Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb: The Lives...

As one of America’s oldest and most beloved sports, baseball has long been touted as the national pastime, but of all the millions of people who have played it over the last few centuries, the first name that many associate with Major League Baseball is Babe Ruth, whose career spanned over 20 years on the way to becoming the sport’s biggest legend. The Bambino came onto the scene as a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, only to be infamously sold to the rival New York Yankees, where he went on to set records for most home runs (714), runs batted in (2,213), walks (2,062), slugging percentage (.690), and on-base plus slugging (1.164). The Sultan of Swat’s records would take decades to be surpassed, but he also managed to win more than 20 games as a pitcher for Boston, along with three World Series before heading to New York. Boston wouldn’t win another championship for over 80 years after Ruth’s departure, a drought famously referred to as “The Curse of the Bambino.” 
As if he wasn’t accomplished enough in Boston, Ruth went on to become a pop culture fixture in New York while playing 15 years for the Yankees on some of the sport’s most legendary teams. In addition to leading the Bronx Bombers to four World Series during his time there, Ruth set several single season and career records, elevating the team and MLB itself in ways that athletes could hardly dream of today.  
	Few have influenced Major League Baseball like Ty Cobb, whose career spanned over 20 seasons. The Georgia Peach overcame early hardships to set nearly 100 MLB records in his time as a player and player-manager for the Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Athletics. With an MVP and Triple Crown under his belt by the age of 25, Cobb went on to produce statistics that still lead MLB in several categories, including 4,065 combined runs scored and RBIs, a career batting average over .365, and at least 11 batting titles.

Bullshit Comparisons will challenge the way you think about rankings, charts, and other marketing and political tools designed to create odious and dangerous comparisons. 
 
 
 
Is Boris Johnson really like Winston Churchill? Are electric cars actually greener than petrol ones? Which is the world's most successful university? Is Lisbon the new Barcelona? Should we compare the achievements of younger and older siblings even when we know it damages their self-worth? We make comparisons every day, but how helpful are they? 
 
 
 
Looking across a dazzling range of situations both familiar and unfamiliar, Bullshit Comparisons is a groundbreaking examination of the role of comparison in modern society, illuminated by examples spanning from the FIFA World Footballer of the year, to wine-tasting in London, hospital care in Sierra Leone, and avocado farming in Colombia. 
 
 
 
Challenging us to think critically about the use of comparison through accessible, personal, and often amusing research, Andrew Brooks reveals the uses and abuses of comparisons in a book that isn't like anything else.
