Synopsis

"Banned Songs" delves into the history of music censorship, exploring instances where songs faced bans or suppression due to political pressure, social backlash, or perceived transgression. The book examines the intricate relationship between artistic expression, political control, and societal norms, revealing how these forces shape the cultural landscape. Intriguingly, the act of banning a song often amplifies its message, solidifying its place in cultural memory. The book argues that censorship, intended to silence dissenting voices, can ironically immortalize them. 

 
The book approaches the topic through historical analysis and cultural studies, drawing upon archival records, legal documents, and media coverage. Each chapter focuses on specific cases, examining the reasons behind the censorship and its impact on artists and audiences. Ranging from McCarthy-era blacklisting to contemporary debates on explicit lyrics, the book systematically explores the suppression of songs for political dissent, social commentary, and perceived moral offenses. 

 
The conclusion synthesizes these findings, demonstrating the enduring legacy of banned songs and their continued relevance in contemporary society.

    As a member of the "New Thought" movement, Henry Harrison Brown (1840 - 1918) founded the periodical "NOW". In this magazine, he first published his most famous essay "Dollars want me!" Brown presented positive affirmations which  inevitably attract money and financial independence. Easy, concise, to the point: Brown states that without man, money is nothing. Therefore, money seeks man to fulfill its duty. All man needs to do is to prepare mentally - and financial freedom will be the result. Extremely interesting and highly entertaining!

    The root of all suffering is attachment and desire 
    Buddha 
    Buddha said that “the root of suffering is attachment and desire.” But what does attachment and desire exactly mean? It's basically what we do when we hold on to things in an effort to find happiness and comfort. We don't just cling to things that give us joy, but we also cling to something because we're afraid to let go of them as well.

    The author of Case White offers an extensive history of German and Soviet armored warfare toward the end of World War II. 
     
     
     
    By 1943, after the catastrophic German defeat at Stalingrad, the Wehmacht's panzer armies gradually lost the initiative on the Eastern Front. The tide of the war had turned. Their combined arms technique, which had swept Soviet forces before it during 1941 and 1942, had lost its edge. Thereafter the war on the Eastern Front was dominated by tank-led offensives and, as Robert Forczyk shows, the Red Army's mechanized forces gained the upper hand, delivering a sequence of powerful blows that shattered one German defensive line after another. 
     
     
     
    His incisive study offers fresh insight into how the two most powerful mechanized armies of the Second World War developed their tank tactics and weaponry during this period of growing Soviet dominance. He uses German, Russian, and English sources to provide the first comprehensive overview and analysis of armored warfare from the German and Soviet perspectives. 
     
     
     
    This major study of the greatest tank war in history is compelling listening.

    Science and politics have collaborated throughout human history and science is repeatedly invoked today in political debates, from pandemic management to climate change. 
     
     
     
    Leading policy analyst Geoff Mulgan here calls attention to the growing frictions caused by the expanding—and unsolicited—authority being heaped upon science. As science increasingly competes with politics, a defined plan of cooperation is urgently needed. 
     
     
     
    Mulgan outlines science and politics as two distinct, imperfect forms of collective intelligence. Whereas science is ordered around what we know and what is, politics engages what we feel and what matters. Politics functions because it recognizes the limits of power, the need for delegation and expert advice. The intellectual logic of science, on the other hand, focuses on detail and depth, struggling to place its knowledge in wider contexts. The crux of the matter, Mulgan argues, is how can we ensure that crucial decisions taken in democracies are both well informed and legitimate? 
     
     
     
    Rooted in understanding that science and politics are not just fields of ideas but also fields of action, this book proposes ways to ensure that the two work effectively together.
