A Short History of European Law...

Tamar Herzog

A Short History of European Law brings to life 2,500 years of legal history, tying current norms to the circumstances of their conception. Tamar Herzog describes how successive legal systems built upon one another, from ancient times through the European Union. Roman law formed the backbone of each configuration, though the way it was used and reshaped varied dramatically from one century and place to the next. Only by considering Continental civil law and English common law together do we see how they drew from and enriched this shared tradition.

The Compton Shuffle - An...

Edward Gilliam

"I served as the principal at the toughest inner-city public school in Compton, California. A school where the Crips and the Bloods fought over turf, and which had suffered a devastating mass shooting with over a dozen injured and killed. Under my watch, we ended gang violence and prevented more mass shootings in school. Here's my recipe to end them nationwide." - Edward Gilliam

He does this with a searing remembrance of that day in 1999.

Wars & Conflicts - Battles Power...

Fredrich Hazelton

This book contains the following titles:
- The 2024 Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most complex and enduring disputes in modern history. Rooted in competing nationalist aspirations, territorial claims, and historical grievances, the conflict has shaped the Middle East and drawn international attention for over a century. To understand the events of 2024, it is essential to examine the historical context that underpins this struggle.
- The Syrian Civil War: The Syrian Civil War, which began in 2011, stands as one of the most devastating conflicts in modern history, reshaping not only Syria but the entire Middle East and the international political landscape. The war has drawn in numerous global powers, each with their own motivations, and has sparked a humanitarian crisis of unparalleled scale. This conflict is not merely a battle between the Assad regime and opposition groups but a complex web of local, regional, and international rivalries, ideologies, and geopolitical interests. As the fighting continues, the war has resulted in staggering human loss, displacement, and destruction, leaving a country in ruins and millions of people displaced across borders.
- The Rise of ISIS: The rise of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) stands as one of the most significant and alarming phenomena of the 21st century. Emerging from the chaos of regional conflicts and geopolitical missteps, ISIS transformed from a little-known insurgent group into a global threat that captured the world’s attention. At its height, ISIS declared a self-styled caliphate, controlling vast territories across Iraq and Syria, and wielded its influence far beyond the Middle East. Through acts of brutality, strategic propaganda, and a sophisticated recruitment network, the group redefined the face of modern terrorism.

We Philogists

Friedrich Nietzsche

“We Philologists” is an early text written by Friedrich Nietzsche around 1874, but it was only published after his death in 1900. The title refers to philology - the study of ancient languages - which was Nietzsche’s academic specialty prior to venturing into philosophy full-time. In this intriguing early paper, Nietzsche describes his fellow philologists’ physical and mental proclivities with the barbed frankness which soon became his signature style. This book is considered by scholars to be a series of drafted notes sketching out the principles of a book rather than a standalone treatise in their own right.
