Summary

Mencius' book 'Mencius (Bilingual Edition: English/Chinese)' is a classic work of Chinese philosophy that delves into ethical and moral issues. Written in a concise and eloquent style, the book consists of dialogues between Mencius and various interlocutors, discussing topics such as righteousness, benevolence, and the cultivation of one's inner virtues. The bilingual edition allows readers to appreciate the original Chinese text alongside the English translation, providing a comprehensive understanding of the philosophical nuances present in Mencius' teachings. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Chinese thought and ethical philosophy. Mencius, also known as Mengzi, was a renowned Confucian philosopher who lived during the Warring States period in China. His profound insights into human nature and the importance of moral cultivation have had a lasting impact on Chinese intellectual history. Mencius' emphasis on the innate goodness of human beings and the necessity of ethical self-improvement is reflected in his teachings found in this bilingual edition. I highly recommend Mencius' 'Mencius (Bilingual Edition: English/Chinese)' to readers seeking a deeper understanding of Confucian philosophy and its relevance to contemporary moral dilemmas. This book serves as a gateway to the profound insights of one of China's greatest philosophers, shedding light on timeless questions of virtue and righteousness.

  • Richard Sorge and the Cambridge Five: The History of the Soviet Union’s Most Important Foreign Spies during World War II - cover

    Richard Sorge and the Cambridge...

    Soviet Russia followed a philosophy demanding international, global revolution – which, in practice, often resembled conquest by any means available, direct or indirect. While the Soviets never hesitated to use naked force when it seemed advisable, or when compelled to it by outside attack, they made intensive use of covert operations – spying, assassination, bribery, infiltration of governments and educational systems, the deployment of agents provocateur and “agitprop” – in an effort to weaken other nations from within or possibly cause takeover by a friendly revolutionary regime.  
    Soviet agents operated in all European countries and others, but their main efforts naturally focused on the strongest potential rivals – Germany, the United States, and Great Britain. Intelligent, persistent, and ruthless, the Soviets succeeded in recruiting a considerable number of agents, including men from the British ruling class. 
    Their activities enabled the Soviets to capture and execute hundreds, if not thousands, of the opponents of their regime along with numbers of British agents. The men responsible for this unprecedented leaking of life-or-death information would enter history as the Cambridge Five – though in fact, they may have been only the core of a much larger group.  
    Occasionally, a spy will be so successful that they are able to place themselves in a position where they have access to information at the highest levels, secrets that really can change the course of world events. Sometimes, these spies may even be as handsome, charming, charismatic, and bold as their fictional counterparts.	One such spy was a man named Richard Sorge. Experiencing the horrors of World War I at first-hand turned Sorge into an ardent communist, after which he worked as a spy for the USSR in Germany, China, and Japan before and during World War II. He obtained vital military and political secrets and maintained his cover for over nine years.

    Dreamtime, also known as "The Dreaming," is the foundational concept of Aboriginal culture and spirituality. It is a complex, multifaceted belief system that encompasses creation stories, spiritual teachings, and an understanding of the interconnectedness of all life. Dreamtime is not confined to a particular period in history but is viewed as an ongoing reality, a state of being that transcends time and exists both in the past and in the present. For Aboriginal people, Dreamtime is both a spiritual truth and a living tradition that shapes their worldview, guiding their actions, relationships, and understanding of the natural world. 
    The significance of Dreamtime lies in its ability to explain the origins of the world, the laws governing life, and the connection between humans, animals, plants, and the land. At its core, Dreamtime is a spiritual map, describing the creation of the earth, the formation of natural features, and the roles of various creator beings. These beings, often depicted as animals, deities, or ancestral spirits, shaped the land, created life, and established the laws of existence. Through Dreamtime stories, Aboriginal people understand their place within the larger web of life, their responsibilities toward the environment, and the moral code they follow to maintain balance and harmony.
