Synopsis

"Silk Road Links" explores the historical significance of the Silk Road, a vast network of trade routes that connected East and West, serving as a conduit for economic, cultural, and technological exchange across Eurasia. The book argues that the Silk Road was more than just a trade route; it was a catalyst for societal evolution, fostering innovation and shaping the geopolitical landscape. Readers will discover how the exchange of goods like silk and spices spurred economic development and how technological advancements in mathematics and medicine spread through intercultural exchange.

 
The book examines the Silk Road's origins, economic impact, cultural diffusion, and technological transfer across chapters. It highlights how religions like Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam traversed these routes and influenced diverse societies. By understanding the Silk Road, readers gain insights into the dynamics of globalization and intercultural exchange that still resonate today.

 
Finally, "Silk Road Links" acknowledges the Silk Road's complexities, including potential exploitation and the spread of disease, offering a nuanced view of this pivotal period in world history. The book progresses from the Silk Road's establishment to its decline, concluding with its lasting legacy, making it a valuable resource for understanding ancient and medieval history.

    From one of Mexico's most exciting young writers, a cosmopolitan and candid essay collection exploring life in cities across the world and reflecting on the transformative importance of literature in understanding ourselves 
     
     
     
    In ten intimate essays, Daniel Saldaña París explores the cities he has lived in, each one home to a new iteration of himself. In Mexico City he's a young poet eager to prove himself. In Montreal—an opioid addict desperate for relief. In Madrid—a lonely student seeking pleasure in grotesque extremes. These now diverging, now coalescing selves raise questions: Where can we find authenticity? How do we construct the stories that define us? What if our formative memories are closer to fiction than truth? 
     
     
     
    Saldaña París turns to literature and film, poetry and philosophy for answers. The result is a hybrid of memoir and criticism, "a sensory work, full of soundscapes, filth, planes, closed spaces, open vastness" (El País).

    Who’s your biggest enemy? Possibly you?Enemy Mode is an immensely damaging brain state that occurs in everyday life. In enemy mode, a person sees and experiences others as adversaries. Living in this mode poisons family and community bonds. It contributes to social stress, business failure, divorce, alienation, domestic violence, crime, racism, and international violence. Social media magnifies the impact of enemy mode toward almost all topics or persons imaginable.Longtime author and neuropsychologist Dr. Jim Wilder explains how the brain develops enemy mode and searches for ways to get the brain to “refriend.” Since a brain in enemy mode cannot tell when someone is trying to help, it rejects or attacks its allies, including refrienders. Wilder puts his years of research to the test in assessing the impossible task put forth by the Christian faith: to love one’s enemies.  After being trained in enemy mode through the military, business, and even friendships, retired Brigadier General Ray Woolridge comes alongside Wilder, bringing the reader on his journey of learning to refriend. He interviews leaders in sports, business, the military, law enforcement, politics, health care, and education, assessing the enemy mode impact on lives and culture.  Can Wilder and Woolridge figure out how enemy mode works and craft a solution? And can they get people and institutions to implement those solutions? This book is for all who desire to be better equipped to face the barrage of daily relational stressors that come at them. It’s for all who long for more harmonious relationships at home, in the workplace, and in their communities.

George Lovell revisits Guatemala to grapple once again with the terror inflicted on its Maya peoples by a military-dominated state.

    If you think that most of the world consists of unicorns and rainbows, think again. Perhaps you think that living in the west is particularly harsh and that the problems we face in the United States or Europe are more brutal than in other parts of the world. Again, think again. 
    Welcome to a book about the ongoing genocide in Darfur, something not often discussed in the news but shocking enough to make you envision what hell on earth looks like. Chances are some of these rapes and murders are happening right now as you’re reading it. The conflict there isn’t over. Tragically, not enough is being done about it, and one might wonder if this is because of a lack of interest or the complications of the situation and therefore, incompetence. 
    The Darfur genocide describes the methodical killing of ethnic Darfuri people in Western Sudan throughout the existing dispute. It's considered the first genocide of the twenty-first century. The International Criminal Court (ICC) has prosecuted many individuals for criminal offenses against mankind, rape, mass relocations and deportations, and abuse because of the genocide being committed against the Fur, Masalit, and Zaghawa tribe. More than one million children there have been "killed, raped, hurt, displaced, shocked, or endured the loss of parents or caregivers and loved ones.” 
    The Darfur War, also called the Land Cruiser War, is a major armed dispute in Sudan's Darfur area that started in the month of February 2003 when the Sudan Liberation Movement (SLM) and the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) rebel groups launched a project against Sudan's federal government, implicating it of oppressing Darfur's non-Arab population. 
    This book will continue to shed light on this dark place on earth.
