Synopsis

"The Cold War" explores the intense ideological and geopolitical standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union, a conflict that profoundly shaped the late 20th century. Delving into the nuclear arms race, the book reveals how close the world came to potential annihilation, highlighting the pervasive fear and intricate espionage battles that defined the era. Understanding this period is crucial for grasping contemporary international relations and the ongoing challenges of nuclear proliferation, offering insights into how proxy wars reshaped global power dynamics. 

 
The book examines the Cold War's origins in the aftermath of World War II, tracing the escalating tensions through key events like the Berlin Blockade and the Cuban Missile Crisis. Structured chronologically and thematically, it progresses from the ideological roots of the conflict to major confrontations and the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union. Drawing upon declassified documents and scholarly analyses, the book provides a balanced account, avoiding simplistic narratives and acknowledging the complexities of this pivotal period in military history and world history.

    'Small children have no say in the direction their lives take. Even before they have learnt to walk and talk, they are trained to obey' 
     
     
     
    Daisy was only four when her parents told her and her older brother that they were moving halfway across the world to Australia for a better life. Leaving everything behind, including her beloved grandparents, she stepped into an unfamiliar world. Daisy's close and unbreakable bond with her disabled brother helped her navigate her new life, until tragedy repeatedly struck the family. 
     
     
     
    After her parents' split and she was introduced to her new stepfather, nothing could have prepared her for what followed. All alone in 300 acres of wilderness, Daisy's only wish was to return home to her grandparents and their love. This is her true story of fear, abuse and, finally, escape.

    Ram Dass - On The Bhagavad Gita

    “We're all just walking each other home.” 
     
    “The quieter you become, the more you can hear.” 
     
    “We're fascinated by the words--but where we meet is in the silence behind them.” 
     
    “It is important to expect nothing, to take every experience, including the negative ones, as merely steps on the path, and to proceed.” 
    ― Ram Dass 
     
    Dr. Richard Alpert, a former Harvard professor and Timothy Leary cohort, was an icon of the hippie, LSD-fueled revolution of the 1960s. Thereafter, on a trip to India - like Clark Kent changing into Superman - he became the much-beloved spiritual teacher Baba Ram Das. His 1970s' iconic book Be Here Now turned on a generation to the deep, non-sectarian spirituality within us all. 
     
    Author Sripad Jagannatha Dasa became friends with Ram Das in the early '70s and traveled across America, playing Indian drums at his speaking engagements. During that time, the two discussed the publication of some of his lectures, but nothing was ever done, and the two lost touch. Now, finally, after all these years, Jagannatha Dasa keeps his promise to his old friend, publishing this original audio history of one of our most inspired and cherished spiritual teachers.

    Left for Dead - Shipwreck...

    In Left for Dead, Eric Jay Dolin—“one of today’s finest writers about ships and the  
    sea” (American Heritage)—tells the true story of a wild and fateful encounter  
    between an American sealing vessel, a shipwrecked British brig, and a British  
    warship in the Falkland archipelago during the War of 1812. 
    Fraught with misunderstandings and mistrust, the incident left three British sailors  
    and two Americans, including the captain of the sealer, Charles H. Barnard,  
    abandoned in the barren, windswept, and inhospitable Falklands for a year and a  
    half. With deft narrative skill and unequaled knowledge of the very pith of the  
    seafaring life, Dolin describes in vivid and harrowing detail the increasingly  
    desperate existence of the castaways during their eighteen-month ordeal—an alltoo-common fate in the Great Age of Sail. 
    A tale of intriguing complexity, with surprising twists and turns throughout— 
    involving greed, lying, bullying, a hostile takeover, stellar leadership, ingenuity,  
    severe privation, endurance, banishment, the great value of a dog, the birth of a  
    baby, a perilous thousand-mile open-ocean journey in a seventeen-foot boat, an  
    improbable rescue mission, and legal battles over a dubious and disgraceful  
    wartime prize—Left for Dead shows individuals in wartime under great duress  
    acting both nobly and atrociously, and offers a unique perspective on a pivotal era  
    in American maritime history. 
    “An absorbing adventure that explores the dark shadows of instinct and self-preservation, and the hardships and stress that stretch the bonds of humanity.  
    Fascinating reading.”—Stephen R. Bown, author of Island of the Blue Foxes:  
    Disaster and Triumph on the World’s Greatest Scientific Expedition
