  Did you know that the first early battery and diving apparatus were invented in ancient Mesopotamia?  
  The land between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers is called the “cradle of civilization,” and for good reason! Although Mesopotamia’s first civilization, Sumer, developed parallel with those of Egypt and nearby Elam, it was a place of many firsts for humanity. Some of them are well known, such as the wheel and the writing script. But it was the ancient Mesopotamians who first came up with the concept of time, the mathematical sexagesimal system, and a calendar with twelve months. It is all these inventions and ideas that set Mesopotamia apart from other civilizations that developed at approximately the same time.  
  There are so many interesting facts about the history and life of the people in Mesopotamia. By listening to this audiobook, you will find out:How agriculture and the domestication of animals led to the development of the world’s earliest civilizationWho were the peoples that occupied the region of Mesopotamia and came up with epics such as Gilgamesh?Who was Sargon of Akkad, and how did he rise to power to unite the cities and form one of the world’s first empires?How the first cuneiform script was invented and how it changed over time to fit the many languages spoken in the Akkadian EmpireWhy a new local ruler was needed to found the Third Dynasty of UrWho was Hammurabi, and why was he so important for the history of humankind?Why was Babylon obscured by Assyria?What role the Chaldeans played in the Assyrian EmpireAnd so much more!

  The Chevron Doctrine - Its Rise...

  Thomas W. Merrill

  • 0

  The Constitution makes Congress the principal federal lawmaker. Power has inevitably shifted to the executive branch agencies that interpret laws already on the books and to the courts that review the agencies' interpretations. 
   
   
   
  Since the Supreme Court's 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, this judicial review has been highly deferential: courts must uphold agency interpretations of unclear laws as long as these interpretations are "reasonable." But the Chevron doctrine faces backlash from constitutional scholars and, now, from Supreme Court justices who insist that courts, not administrative agencies, have the authority to say what the law is. Recognizing that Congress cannot help relying on agencies to carry out laws, Merrill rejects the notion of discarding the administrative state. Instead, he focuses on what should be the proper relationship between agencies and courts in interpreting laws, given the strengths and weaknesses of these institutions. Courts are better at enforcing the rule of law and constitutional values; agencies have more policy expertise and receive more public input. 
   
   
   
  The best solution, Merrill suggests, is not of the either-or variety. Neither executive agencies nor courts alone should pick up the slack of our increasingly ineffectual legislature.

  The conditions of travel have long been dictated by the color of passports and the color of skin. 
   
   
   
  The color of one's skin and passport have long dictated the conditions of travel.  For Shahnaz Habib, travel and travel writing have always been complicated pleasures. Habib threads the history of travel with her personal story as a child on family vacations in India, an adult curious about the world, and an immigrant for whom roundtrips are an annual fact of life. Tracing the power dynamics that underlie tourism, this insightful debut parses who gets to travel, and who gets to write about the experience. 
   
   
   
  Threaded through the book are inviting and playful analyses of obvious and not-so-obvious travel artifacts: passports, carousels, bougainvilleas, guidebooks, trains, the idea of wanderlust itself. Together, they tell a subversive history of travel as a Euro-American mode of consumerism—but as any traveler knows, travel is more than that. As an immigrant whose loved ones live across continents, Habib takes a deeply curious and joyful look at a troubled and beloved activity.

  Going Big - FDR’s Legacy Biden’s...

  Joe Biden has found his way back to Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal. After four decades of diminishing prospects for ordinary people, the public likes what Biden is offering. Yet American democracy is in dire peril as Republicans, increasingly the national minority, try to destroy democracy in order to cling to power. It is the best of times and the worst of times. In Going Big, bestselling author and political journalist Robert Kuttner assesses the promise and peril of this critical juncture. 
   
   
   
  Biden, like FDR in his time, faces multiple challenges. Roosevelt had to make terrible compromises with racist legislators to win enactment of his program. Biden, to achieve the necessary governing coalition, needs to achieve durable multiracial coalitions. Roosevelt had to conquer fascism in Europe; Biden must defeat it at home. And after four decades of neoliberal policy disasters reflecting Wall Street's political influence, Biden needs to go beyond what even FDR achieved, to restore a democratic economy of broad possibility. 
   
   
   
  From a writer with an unparalleled understanding of the history and politics that have made this moment possible, this book is the essential guide to what is at stake for Joe Biden, for America, and for our democracy.

  Codebreakers - How Allied...

  The art of codebreaking has long been an essential aspect of warfare, serving as a hidden weapon that can change the course of history. During World War II, intelligence efforts were not only about gathering information; they were about deciphering the secrets encoded by the enemy to gain a strategic advantage. As technology evolved, so did the complexity of military ciphers, making the task of breaking enemy codes more challenging and more critical than ever. "Codebreakers: How Allied Intelligence Cracked Enemy Codes and the Tide" delves into the extraordinary efforts of Allied cryptographers, whose tireless work behind the scenes helped secure victories that shifted the balance of the war. 
    
  The importance of cryptography in World War II cannot be overstated. The ability to read an enemy’s messages before they had time to act was a decisive factor in numerous key battles and campaigns. The German Enigma machine, a sophisticated encryption device, represented the pinnacle of Nazi Germany’s efforts to protect its communications. Breaking this code was essential to the Allied success, and it was a challenge that seemed insurmountable at the time. However, a group of brilliant minds, including Alan Turing, led the charge in deciphering the Enigma cipher, providing the Allies with invaluable intelligence that allowed them to anticipate German movements, thwart attacks, and save countless lives. 
    
  At the heart of this monumental achievement was Bletchley Park, a secret British facility that became the epicenter of codebreaking during the war. Here, the brightest mathematicians, linguists, and engineers worked tirelessly, often under immense pressure, to crack the German and later the Japanese codes.
