Summary

Long before the rise of major world religions, a visionary prophet emerged from the heart of ancient Persia. Zoroaster, also known as Zarathustra, introduced a spiritual philosophy that would shape the beliefs of empires and influence faiths for millennia. His teachings on light and darkness, good and evil, and the eternal struggle between order and chaos laid the foundation for one of the world’s oldest monotheistic traditions—Zoroastrianism.
 
 
 
The Mystique of Zoroaster delves into the life, wisdom, and lasting legacy of this enigmatic figure. Who was Zoroaster, and what inspired his revolutionary vision? How did his ideas spread across ancient Persia and beyond? Through historical records, sacred texts, and modern interpretations, this book uncovers the profound impact of his philosophy on religion, ethics, and the human search for meaning.
 
 
 
Discover the mysteries of a prophet whose influence still echoes through history, from the courts of Persian kings to the philosophies of today.

    In 66 BC, young, ambitious Julius Caesar, seeking recognition and authority, became the curator of the Via Appia. He borrowed significant sums to restore the ancient highway. It was a way to curry favor from Roman citizens in villages along the route, built from Rome to Brindisi between 312-191 BC. After achieving greatness in Rome and the far reaches of Gaul, he led armies along this road to battle enemies in Roman civil wars. And then, across the Adriatic Sea, he joined Via Appia's sister road, the Via Egnatia that began in today's Albania. Other armies followed these two roads that eventually connected Rome to Byzantium, today's Istanbul. In the early second century AD, the emperor Trajan charted a new coastal route between Benevento and Brindisi, later called the Via Traiana. 
     
     
     
    Today, short stretches of the original three roads can be seen in the ruins of ancient Roman cities, now preserved as archaeological wonders, and through the countryside near, and sometimes under, modern highways. Following those routes is the purpose of treading along the path that Caesar and so many others took over the early centuries. Modern eyes, seeing through the mists of more than two thousand years of history, lead the traveler along these three roads coursing through six countries between Rome and Istanbul.

    Mass Killers - Inside the Minds...

    Can you predict killing sprees? What do mass killers have in common? Why do so many of them write manifestos online and what do these tell us?
     
    These are some of the questions David J. Krajicek seeks to answer in Mass Killings, on a topic that is becoming increasing urgent and desperate. In recent decades, mass shootings worldwide have increased in their savagery and frequency. Nearly all mass killers are male - and many of them are bound together by misogyny, misanthropy, and racism. They do not just "snap." They plan their assaults for months or years, drawing up detailed battle plans, and accumulating weaponry. They document the process in journals or videos online, understanding that they are leaving evidence which will help the marquee lights of their futile crimes burn brighter and longer.
     
    Krajicek shows the commonalities between mass shooters, and describes the psychopathic process that leads these troubled men to commit atrocities. Mass killers feed off each other's words and deeds, and it's crucial to be able to read the signals they give out to prevent future tragedies.

    A revealing look at differing threat perceptions in six key NATO countries 
     
    When Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, analysts and policymakers highlighted the unifying shock that NATO members experienced. However even before the return of US president Donald Trump, beneath this seeming cohesion lay deep-seated differences in how member states perceive and prioritize security threats. 
     
    NATO after Russia's Invasion of Ukraine analyzes the six most influential members of the alliance: the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Poland, and Italy. Through extensive interviews with current and former policymakers and a detailed examination of public statements and policies, Jason W. Davidson delivers a unique assessment of how divergent threat perceptions influence the NATO allies' major defense decisions, such as defense spending, and whether the alliance addresses each ally's most important threat and its view of NATO's most important challenges. With the rise in tumultuous geopolitical challenges posed by Russia, China, terrorism, mass refugee flows, and nationalism, this book provides the crucial context needed to navigate NATO's evolving role in international security.
