Sinopse

"Burial Secrets" unveils the hidden stories within ancient burial sites, arguing that these locations actively shape our understanding of history. Going beyond traditional accounts, the book explores how funerary practices and mortuary archaeology offer nuanced insights into past civilizations, their belief systems, and cultural identity. For example, the elaborate tombs of pharaohs reveal not just royal status, but also intricate beliefs about the afterlife.

 
The book examines the evolution of burial rituals, the impact of archaeological discoveries, and the role of funerary relics in shaping mythology. One intriguing fact is how the terracotta army of Qin Shi Huang revolutionized our understanding of ancient Chinese society.

 
Beginning with the principles of mortuary archaeology, "Burial Secrets" progresses through diverse cultures and historical periods, culminating in an exploration of how burial sites influence modern cultural identity. Through a comparative approach and cutting-edge scientific techniques, this book reveals how burial sites are dynamic archives rather than static repositories. By focusing on the agency of the dead, the book provides a unique perspective, making it invaluable to history enthusiasts and anyone seeking a deeper comprehension of world history and hidden history.

    If a poll were taken inquiring if you believed eggs could be Unscrambled, You’d be in the majority with the opinion that it was a rare foolishness to even consider. 
    More scientific debaters would argue cooking fudges the egg proteins, breaks its chemical bonds, causing new bonds to form. On cooling the proteins cannot return to their raw configuration. Even if they did, it’d be impossible to wield cutlery in such a way as to separate the yolk from the white. The mixing & cooking are irreversible processes. 
    As a mad Parallel thinker I disagree. 
    You simply need an uncanny understanding of the components, the various players & their compositions to reverse the several severely transformative processes undergone. 
    For You & I, Non-Unscramblers (of eggs), not simple. Yes. But I won’t bet that it is impossible, I don’t think you should.

  • From Red Terror to Terrorist State - Russia's Secret Service and Its Fight for World Domination: from Felix Dzerzhinsky to Vladimir Putin - cover

    From Red Terror to Terrorist...

    'Detail worthy of a John le Carre novel.' Telegraph The history of modern Russia traditionally has Communism at its centre: Lenin defines its rise, Gorbachev its fall, and Putin its aftermath. In this radical new history, Yuri Felshtinsky and Vladimir Popov, however, introduce a new historical axis: the Cheka―the Bolsheviks' nebulous revolutionary intelligence service. Wrapped around the Party in a fight to the death from 1918 under its first head Felix Dzerzhinsky, only Stalin was able to resist its stranglehold at the cost of enormous bloodshed. Luring Russia into submission over less than a century, its murder-plots and unrivalled scheming culminated in the capture of the Kremlin in 2000. Drawing on Popov's secret documents of over two decades as a senior officer in one of the KGB's key covert sections, and on Felshtinsky's encyclopedic knowledge of Russian state archives open in the 1990s, little-known sources, and access to leading oligarchs, a new Russian history emerges. The story they tell is often unexpected while introducing a new cast of characters still of great influence―potentially surpassing Lenin's role―on our world today. From Red Terror to Terrorist State is the first complete history of the Cheka. Written from the inside, it fundamentally transforms our understanding of Russia and rethinks the way today's Kremlin views itself and the rest of the world. Animated by lifelong study, this authoritative narrative by two exceptional Russian-intelligence experts presents ground-breaking new insights based on an unrivalled wealth of new factual details.

    “What do you think happens after we die?” has been Elizabeth Earley’s favorite conversation starter since the motorcycle accident that almost killed her. In Little Deaths All in a Row: Essays on Sex and Death, Earley delves into memories of past lovers and offers vivid portraits of the hospice patients she has worked with after recovering from her own near-fatal injuries. Tracing the many connections—philosophical, scientific, ethical, and spiritual—between sex and death, these lyric essays ponder the afterlife, pain and pleasure, quantum entanglement and love, and the “strange and painful goodness of being alive.”
