Sinossi

Historical Timelines offers a sweeping exploration of world history, emphasizing the interconnectedness of events from ancient civilizations to the modern era. The book argues that timelines are indispensable tools for understanding historical data, allowing readers to visualize complex sequences and grasp the relationships between pivotal moments. It highlights key political, social, economic, and technological developments, showing how actions in one era can trigger consequences in seemingly unrelated areas. For example, the book explores how the rise and fall of ancient empires like Rome had lasting impacts on subsequent European history.

 
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with ancient civilizations and moving through the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution, and the World Wars, before culminating in an examination of the Cold War, globalization, and contemporary challenges. What sets this book apart is its emphasis on visually representing historical data through timelines and graphical aids, making complex information accessible to a broad audience. This approach helps readers appreciate the lasting impact of key historical moments and the intricate web of interconnected events that have shaped our world.

    Lost Worlds takes readers on a mesmerizing journey through ancient myths, mysterious ruins, and legendary beings from civilizations long past. This 3-in-1 collection explores the enduring enigma of The Legend of Atlantis, the rich spiritual cosmology of The Myths of the Maya, and the fantastic beings found in Mythical Creatures of the World. Each section unveils the imagination and belief systems of lost cultures that continue to inspire wonder and speculation today. 
    Begin with Atlantis, the fabled sunken city described by Plato—an advanced civilization wiped away in a single day and night. Was it real, metaphorical, or something in between? This section dives into the theories, symbolism, and global fascination with one of the most famous lost civilizations. Then venture into the rainforests and pyramids of Mesoamerica to discover Maya mythology, where gods, time, and nature were deeply intertwined. These stories reveal a complex worldview filled with powerful deities, sacred calendars, and epic creation myths. 
    Finally, Mythical Creatures of the World unveils a diverse cast of legendary beings from every corner of the globe—from the phoenix and dragon to lesser-known spirits, monsters, and hybrids. These creatures reflect humanity’s hopes, fears, and the magic we see in the unknown. Lost Worlds offers a captivating exploration of civilizations we’ve lost—but whose stories continue to live on.

    What makes a state? This question has attracted more and more attention in recent years with Catalan's illegal vote for independence from Spain and Palestine's ongoing search for international recognition. And while Scotland chose to remain with the United Kingdom, discussions of independence have only continued as the ramifications of the Brexit vote begin to set in. Kosovo, South Sudan, and the situation in Ukraine—each in its way reveals the perils of creating a nation separate from neighbors who have dominated it. 
     
     
     
    As James Ker-Lindsay and Mikulas Fabry show in this new addition to the What Everyone Needs to Know® series, the road to statehood never did run smooth. Declaring independence is only the first step; gaining both local and global acceptance is necessary before a state can become truly independent. The prospect of losing territory is usually not welcomed by the parent state. Beyond this immediate conflict, the international community often refuses to accept new states without proof of defined territory, a settled population, and effective government, which frequently translates to a democratic one with demonstrated respect for human rights. Covering the legal, political, and practical issues of secession and state creation, Ker-Lindsay and Fabry provide a sure-footed guide to a complex topic.

    Ways of Attending - How our...

    Attention is not just receptive, but actively creative of the world we inhabit. How we attend makes all the difference to the world we experience. And nowadays in the West we generally attend in a rather unusual way: governed by the narrowly focussed, target-driven left hemisphere of the brain.  
    Forget everything you thought you knew about the difference between the hemispheres, because it will be largely wrong. It is not what each hemisphere does – they are both involved in everything – but how it does it, that matters. And the prime difference between the brain hemispheres is the manner in which they attend. For reasons of survival we need one hemisphere (in humans and many animals, the left) to pay narrow attention to detail, to grab hold of things we need, while the other, the right, keeps an eye out for everything else. The result is that one hemisphere is good at utilising the world, the other better at understanding it.  
    Absent, present, detached, engaged, alienated, empathic, broad or narrow, sustained or piecemeal, attention has the power to alter whatever it meets. The play of attention can both create and destroy, but it never leaves its object unchanged. How you attend to something – or don’t attend to it – matters a very great deal. This book helps you to see what it is you may have been trained by our very unusual culture not to see.  
    Ways of Attending is expertly read by Mike Fraser. The cover design has been adapted from a Cajal original drawing, and used with permission of Legado Cajal (Madrid).

    In Warfighter, Colonel Jesse L. Johnson, one of the most decorated living American veterans, recounts the action-packed true-life tale of a man who stood and fought at the crossroads of history. Spanning forty years of conflict, from the jungles of Vietnam to the deserts of Iran and Iraq, never has a modern military memoir covered such a vast landscape of all-out warfare. Never has one man fought on the frontlines of so many of America's most heroic battles. Johnson led the most elite forces on operations that defined eras past and present, mentoring young soldiers who would rise to become some of America's greatest generals. He held the ear of princes, kings, presidents, and even Hollywood movie stars. With an all-star cast worthy of an epic war film, this extraordinary hero's journey sheds new light on some of the most transformative events of our time—crises, conflicts, and covert operations that have shaped the world as we know it today. More important, Warfighter offers us a deeper understanding of the personal sacrifice and human toll of a lifetime at war, and the honor-bound code of a man whose instinct in battle was to always charge ahead of those under his command—into the fight.
