Sinopsis

"Roanoke Colony" explores the enduring mystery of the Lost Colony and the disappearance of English settlers from Roanoke Island in the late 16th century. This captivating book investigates the historical context, archaeological evidence, and anthropological perspectives surrounding this enigma.

 
The book sheds light on England's colonial ambitions and the complex relationships between the English and Native American populations. The book posits that the colony's abandonment resulted from a mix of environmental pressures, strained relations with indigenous people, and internal divisions, exacerbated by delayed resupply efforts during the Anglo-Spanish War.

 
One intriguing fact is the crucial role of John White's writings and artwork in understanding the colony's landscape. The book examines land evidence, colonial documents, and studies of Algonquian culture.

 
Beginning with an overview of the colony and key players, the book progresses through three major sections: archaeological records, historical sources, and anthropological research. By synthesizing these diverse lines of evidence, the book offers a nuanced explanation for the colony's disappearance, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in early American colonization and historical mysteries.

    "The Economic Consequences of the Peace" is a book written by John Maynard Keynes, a British economist, in 1919. The book was a critique of the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I and imposed harsh economic sanctions on Germany. 
    In the book, Keynes argued that the treaty would have disastrous economic consequences for Germany and for Europe as a whole. He believed that the sanctions would cripple Germany's economy and lead to political instability, which would in turn lead to further economic problems for the rest of Europe. 
    Keynes also criticized the economic policies of the Allied powers, particularly the United States, which he believed were contributing to a global economic depression. He argued that a more cooperative approach to international economics was needed, with countries working together to promote economic growth and stability. 
    "The Economic Consequences of the Peace" was a highly influential book that helped shape the field of international economics and influenced the development of Keynesian economics. The book's critique of the Treaty of Versailles was widely shared and helped to pave the way for a more conciliatory approach to Germany in the years that followed.

    If we knew that Coca-Cola was among the deadliest products in our diet, would we continue drinking it in such great quantities? The Coca-Cola Company has gone to extraordinary lengths to make sure we don't find out, as this damning exposé makes patently clear. Marshaling the findings of extensive research and deep investigative reporting, Murray Carpenter describes in Sweet and Deadly the damage Coke does to America's health—and the remarkable campaign of disinformation conducted by the company to keep consumers in the dark. 
     
     
     
    Sugar-sweetened beverages are the single item in the American diet that most contributes to the epidemic of chronic disease—in particular, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease—and Coca-Cola is America's favorite sugar-sweetened beverage, by far. Carpenter details how the Coca-Cola corporation's sophisticated shadow network has masterfully spread disinformation for decades to hide the health risks of its product from consumers—risks disproportionately borne by Black, brown, and low-income communities. Working from a playbook of obfuscation and pseudoscience that has worked well for other harmful products, from tobacco and trans fats to opioids, Coca-Cola has managed to maintain an aura of goodness and happiness. This eye-opening book finally and fully reveals the truth behind that aura.
