Sinopsis

“Written Laws” explores the historical transition from customary law to codified legal systems and their lasting impact on civilization. The book examines how these written codes, like Hammurabi’s Code, provided a more predictable framework for governance, fostering economic development and social stability. Intriguingly, the codification of laws offered a means to protect individual rights, although these rights were often limited by modern standards. The book contextualizes each legal system within its historical, social, and political background, highlighting the rise of centralized states and the evolution of writing. Chapters delve into specific examples such as ancient Egyptian law, the laws of the Hebrew Bible, and the Twelve Tables of Rome. The analysis considers the content of the laws, their societal context, and enforcement mechanisms. The book demonstrates how these early legal codes have influenced subsequent legal traditions, including civil law and common law systems, shaping our very understanding of justice.

    Ever wonder why poverty exists and how we could get rid of it? Here's your answer. 
    Darryl Finkton, Jr. is a hedge fund manager turned community organizer. Raised in poverty, Darryl went on to graduate from Harvard College and the University of Oxford, where he studied as a Rhodes Scholar. In “End Poverty. Make Trillions.” Darryl shares how he rose from rags to riches, and how we can ensure everyone has an opportunity to generate wealth. 
    A Surprisingly Simple Plan for Ending Poverty–and Making Trillions of Dollars for Ourselves While We Do It 
    Poverty costs the United States more than a trillion dollars a year for myriad complex reasons. Ending it would result in joy that is hard to quantify. Yet for all the complexities involved, the “how” of it all–the way to escape national suffering and decline and start off toward a future of organic, resilient national growth–is simple. 
    It’s SO SIMPLE. 
    To have lives of dignity and purpose and contribute meaningfully to our capitalist economy, America’s poor people do not need the rest of us to feed or shelter them. They don’t need us to derail our lives to take care of them or even think about them all that much. 
    They need MONEY.

    Adversity is an inherent part of life that comes in many forms—whether it's a personal struggle, a professional challenge, or a global crisis. It is something that everyone will face at some point, though its shape and size may vary. Often, adversity is perceived as a barrier, a force that stands in the way of success and happiness. However, adversity can also serve as a catalyst for growth, transformation, and self-discovery. To truly understand the nature of adversity, one must first accept that it is inevitable. No one is exempt from hardship, and this is not a reflection of personal failure or weakness. Instead, it is a universal experience that connects all human beings, regardless of age, background, or circumstance. 
    In many ways, adversity is an unavoidable part of the human condition. It tests our endurance, resilience, and ability to navigate difficult situations. While facing challenges can often feel overwhelming, it also provides an opportunity for individuals to tap into their inner strength and develop qualities like perseverance, patience, and emotional fortitude. The key lies in how we respond to adversity. The manner in which we approach difficulties can shape the outcome, transforming seemingly insurmountable obstacles into stepping stones for progress.

    Now I’m trapped in an underground labyrinth. Stalked by the minotaur, I flee for my life. It wants to capture me. It wants to keep me as its pet—its servant.
