  The Revolutionary Self - Social...

  An illuminating exploration of the tensions between self and society in the age of revolutions. 
   
   
   
  The eighteenth century was a time of cultural friction: individuals began to assert greater independence and there was a new emphasis on social equality. In this surprising history, Lynn Hunt examines women's expanding societal roles, such as using tea to facilitate conversation between the sexes in Britain. In France, women also pushed boundaries by becoming artists, and printmakers' satiric takes on the elite gave the lower classes a chance to laugh at the upper classes and imagine the potential of political upheaval. Hunt also explores how promotion in French revolutionary armies was based on men's singular capabilities, rather than noble blood, and how the invention of financial instruments such as life insurance and national debt related to a changing idea of national identity. Wide-ranging and thought-provoking, The Revolutionary Self is a fascinating exploration of the conflict between individualism and the group ties that continues to shape our lives today.

  The Relentless War on...

  The Relentless War on Masculinity is a cultural, rhetorical, chemical, legal and institutional attack on all males. During the last seven decades it has resulted in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand moving from being societies characterised by equality (during the 1980s) to now being highly gynocentric. 
  Western countries have tilted against men and boys for decades—dismantling fatherhood, ignoring male disadvantage, and portraying masculinity as a problem to be fixed. The result is a crisis: falling education outcomes for boys, disengaged young men, rising mental health struggles, plummeting birth rates, and fractured relationships between men and women. 
  This book shines a light on the causes of the crisis and offers a vision for how to rebuild. Combining clear analysis with heartfelt advocacy, David Maywald calls for a new social contract: one where boys are supported, men are respected, and both sexes work together to create a healthier future for us all... 
  This book explores: 
  - How Anglo societies moved from equality to gynocentrism—and what that means for our families, schools, and communities. 
  - Why fatherhood, faith, and purpose remain essential foundations of human flourishing. 
  - The cultural, political, and institutional forces that have sidelined men. 
  - Practical solutions and reforms that can restore balance, rebuilding collaboration between men and women. 
  There are no winners from The Relentless War on Masculinity, but we can rebuild a much healthier society if men and women collaborate for our children. Inclusion demands that we listen to and engage with all voices—including males, White people and Christians. 
  As a society, will we choose combativeness or collaboration? Read on for a provocative, hopeful and urgent call to action. This book is for everyone who believes that when men and boys thrive, society also flourishes.

  Laws is Plato's last and longest dialogue. It is generally agreed that Plato wrote this dialogue as an older man, having failed in his effort in Syracuse on the island of Sicily to guide a tyrant's rule, instead having been thrown in prison 
   
  The Classical Greek philosopher Plato was instrumental in the development of Western philosophy and science. Plato was born to an aristocratic family and was well-educated. He founded the Academy, one of the first institutions of higher learning, around 385 BC. Plato was highly influenced by his teacher, Socrates. Socrates was condemned to death after being accused of corrupting his young followers. After Socrates' death, Plato recorded several dialogues detailing what he remembered from Socrates' teachings and interactions with others. Almost everything known about Socrates comes from Plato's dialogues. Plato's writings have been revised and interpreted by a variety of publishers.

  This is the audio recording of the "Phantom Punch" title fight--the second championship bout between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston--held on May 25, 1965, at St. Dominic’s Hall in Lewiston, Maine. It also includes a follow-up analysis by boxing experts. This rematch is infamous for the controversial "phantom punch" that led to Liston's quick defeat in the first round. Ali knocked Liston down, but the punch was not clearly seen by many observers, leading to speculation about a fix. The fight was marred by confusion, as the referee failed to administer a proper count, and the atmosphere surrounding the event was tense, contributing to its notoriety.
