  EQ+MH=PH Emotions! How to live...

  “How emotional you are!”  
  So often we hear this comment from a friend or a family member.   
  Mostly we fumble as we think of a response because we do not know what to say as we cannot relate to what it means to be ‘emotional.’  
  Emotions make us human.  
  They give us information about what is going on inside us.  
  Emotional Quotient (EQ) is the level of awareness of what is taking place or going to take place. It is the ability to comprehend and use that knowledge effectively. Emotions help us reflect on how we are mentally equipped to give our life direction. Our emotional responses make us win friends, build healthy relationships or lose them. It is our EQ that allows us to stay ahead at work, and be focused and cheerful.   
  In recent times there is a lot of focus on one dimension of human well-being, physical health.  
  But then, physical health is just one part of our overall health. A partial one.  
  The equation to have a healthy life begins with a healthy and high EQ plus a healthy mind.  
  Once these two, our emotional quotient (EQ) and mental health (MH) are in place then our physical health (PH) will be in good shape. If we have a high EQ then even if we have any physical illness it will not make us stressed or discouraged to live a good and effective life. This seems understandable and logical but is very difficult to follow. This is where this book helps. Not only to open the perspective of well-being and health to have a multidimensional outlook but also to sustain it. too,

  John Stuart Mill - A Very Short...

  John Stuart Mill (1806-73) is widely regarded as the leading liberal philosopher, economist, and political theorist of nineteenth century Britain. In his lifetime he was best known for his System of Logic (1843) and the Principles of Political Economy (1848). Today Mill is chiefly identified with On Liberty (1859), perhaps the definitive text of modern liberal statement of its subject, and probably the single most important work of modern political thought. Mill was also the first major male feminist thinker of the period (author of The Subjection of Women, 1869), and the first, as an MP, to introduce a bill for female enfranchisement before Parliament. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction offers a brief survey of the life and key ideas of this most influential Victorian British writer. Moving chronologically, Gregory Claeys outlines the philosophical background out of which Mill developed, chiefly through the ideas of Jeremy Bentham and James Mill. He demonstrates how Mill's personal life, especially his 'mental crisis' of 1827, and his relationship with Harriet Taylor, were integral to his intellectual development. Throughout Claeys considers Mill's key works set within the context of his lesser writings and correspondence, and discusses the more controversial aspects of his thought concerning religion, secularism, and birth control.

  Falklands War - History of Its...

  The Falklands War (Guerra de las Malvinas) was a brief but intense conflict in the South Atlantic between Argentina and the United Kingdom. Fought over the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands and their territorial dependencies—South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands—the war lasted from April to June 1982. The confrontation marked a significant chapter in the longstanding dispute between the two nations over these remote territories. 
  On April 2, 1982, Argentina launched an invasion of the Falkland Islands, quickly seizing control. The following day, Argentine forces invaded South Georgia. These aggressive actions were framed by the Argentine government as a reclamation of their sovereign territory, asserting claims they had maintained since the early 19th century. However, the United Kingdom, viewing the invasion as an attack on a British Crown colony, responded decisively. On April 5, the British government dispatched a naval task force to the South Atlantic. After intense naval and air engagements, the British launched an amphibious assault on the islands. The conflict concluded 74 days later, on June 14, 1982, with Argentina’s surrender and the restoration of British control over the islands.
