Sinopse

The Qin Dynasty was short-lived, but its impact on China was nothing short of revolutionary. From the unification of warring states to the construction of the Great Wall's first sections, the Qin laid the foundation for an empire that would endure for centuries. This book explores the rise and rule of Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, whose vision transformed a fragmented land into a powerful state.
 
 
 
At the heart of this legacy stands the awe-inspiring Terracotta Army, a vast underground force built to guard the emperor in the afterlife. Through historical analysis and archaeological discoveries, this book brings to life the military strategies, governance, and cultural advancements that defined the Qin era.
 
 
 
Step into the world of ancient China and uncover how one dynasty changed the course of history forever.

  • Wealth of the Collective Mind The: How the Masses Can Manifest Utopia - cover

    Wealth of the Collective Mind...

    For too long, the world has been misled by the illusion of self-made success and individual wealth. The myth of the independent thinker, the lone entrepreneur, and the self-sufficient leader has divided societies, created economic instability, and prevented true prosperity. But what if wealth was never meant to be an individual pursuit? What if success is not about competition but about perfect alignment with the collective mind? 
    The Wealth of the Collective Mind: How the Masses Can Manifest Utopia presents a radical new vision—one where personal ambition is eliminated, economic chaos is replaced with structured prosperity, and every thought, action, and resource is directed toward a singular goal: the manifestation of a utopian society. 
    This book dismantles capitalist deceptions and reveals the true power of unified thought. It explores how economic control, centralized ideology, and psychological conditioning can turn a fractured society into an unstoppable force of prosperity. 
    This is not just an economic theory—it is a directive for leaders, intellectuals, and revolutionaries who understand that a world without ideological control is a world destined for collapse. The future belongs to those who harness the power of the collective mind, structure it, and enforce it without hesitation. 
    Utopia is not a dream. It is a system waiting to be implemented.

    The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to 3, 1863, is the ideal template for recognizing and maximizing your leadership abilities. 
    This pivotal event, the most written-about in American history, offers a rich narrative, emotional insights, and complex strategies that make it an unparalleled resource for understanding leadership. 
    Here’s why Gettysburg stands out and why citing other historical events for our purpose would be unnecessarily redundant. Perhaps surprisingly, this isn’t a history book. Instead, it’s a powerful guide that harnesses the lessons from a significant historical event to illuminate vital life principles. This book not only enhances your leadership skills but also demonstrates how understanding human nature can turn to your advantage. 
    The author offers a groundbreaking approach to history - one that moves beyond mere facts and statistics to use historical insights and challenging questions as a catalyst for your personal growth. In a paraphrase of historian John Toland, he wisely suggests, “History doesn’t repeat itself, human nature does.” 
    Embrace this novel perspective and let the lessons from Gettysburg energize your life’s journey.

  • Couple Sexuality After 60 - Intimate Pleasurable and Satisfying - cover

    Couple Sexuality After 60 -...

    Confronting taboos and misunderstandings about sexuality and aging, Couple Sexuality After 60: Intimate, Pleasurable, and Satisfying motivates couples to embrace sex and sexuality in their sixties, seventies, and eighties. The book busts two extreme myths—that people over sixty cannot and should not be sexual, and that the best way to be sexual is to emphasize eroticism, using sex toys, and "kinky sex." 
     
     
     
    Using a variable, flexible approach to couple sexuality based on the Good Enough Sex (GES) model, this book places the essence of sexuality in pleasure-oriented touching, not individual sex performance. Barry and Emily McCarthy introduce a new sexual mantra of "desire/pleasure/eroticism/satisfaction" with the goal of presenting a healthy model of sexuality to replace the traditional double standard that couples learn in young adulthood. Specific chapters focus on important areas like coming to terms with the new normal, female–male sexual equity, satisfaction being about more than intercourse and orgasm, valuing synchronous and asynchronous sexuality, psychobiosocial approaches to sexuality, and more. 
     
     
     
    In addition to aging heterosexual couples, single individuals and queer couples will find this book interesting. Additionally, this is a must-listen for sexual health clinicians and sex therapists with clients over the age of sixty.

    World hunger. Climate change. Crumbling infrastructure. It’s clear that in today’s era of fiscal constraints and political gridlock the government alone can no longer tackle these and other towering social problems. What’s required is a new, more collaborative and productive economic system. The Solution Revolution brings hope—revealing a new economy where players from across the spectrum of business, government, philanthropy, and social enterprise converge to solve big problems and create public value.By erasing public-private sector boundaries, the solution economy is unlocking trillions of dollars in social benefit and commercial value. Where tough societal problems persist, new problem solvers are crowdfunding, ridesharing, app-developing, or impact-investing to design innovative new solutions for seemingly intractable problems. Providing low-cost health care, fighting poverty, creating renewable energy, and preventing obesity are just a few of the tough challenges that also represent tremendous opportunities for those at the vanguard of this movement.Government cannot handle alone the huge challenges facing our global society—and it shouldn’t. We need a different economic paradigm that can flexibly draw on resources, combine efforts, and create value, while improving the lives of citizens. The Solution Revolution shows the way.
