The Authorised Bhagavatam - (Full version)

Movement ISKCON Revival

Sinopse

After Srila Prabhupada's physical departure on 14th November, 1977, the following occurred:
 
1) Taking advantage of this departure, 11 men immediately usurped Srila Prabhupada's position as the diksa guru of ISKCON.
 
2) One of the 11 men who did this was HH Hridayananda Dasa Goswami ("HD"). He then went on, from around 1980 until 1982, to complete Srila Prabhupada's Srimad-Bhagavatam, by giving his own translations and purports on cantos 10 (after chapter 13), 11 and 12, which will be referred to as "HD's Bhagavatam".
 
However, as we proved in our book, The Final Order, there is no record of Srila Prabhupada having given an order for HD and the others to take his position as ISKCON's diksa guru. Thus, event 1 was unauthorised. In this book, we will show that Srila Prabhupada similarly gave no order for HD to complete his Bhagavatam, and thus HD's Bhagavatam is also unauthorised. In addition, we will show that a group which has made it a mission to promote HD's Bhagavatam as bona fide must, by their own arguments, also reject it as being unauthorised.

Economics for Humans - Second...

Julie A. Nelson

At its core, an economy is about providing goods and services for human well-being. But many economists and critics preach that an economy is something far different: a cold and heartless system that operates outside of human control. In this impassioned and perceptive work, Julie A. Nelson asks a compelling question: given that our economic world is something that we as humans create, aren’t ethics and human relationships—dimensions of a full and rich life—intrinsically part of the picture?

Economics for Humans argues against the well-ingrained notion that economics is immune to moral values and distant from human relationships. Here, Nelson locates the impediment to a more considerate economic world in an assumption that is shared by both neoliberals and the political left. Despite their seemingly insurmountable differences, both make use of the metaphor, first proposed by Adam Smith, that the economy is a machine. This pervasive idea, Nelson argues, has blinded us to the qualities that make us work and care for one another—qualities that also make businesses thrive and markets grow. We can wed our interest in money with our justifiable concerns about ethics and social well-being. And we can do so if we recognize that an economy is not a machine, but a living thing in need of attention and careful tending.

This second edition has been updated and refined throughout, with expanded discussions of many topics and a new chapter that investigates the apparent conflict between economic well-being and ecological sustainability. Further developing the main points of the first edition, Economics for Humans will continue to both invigorate and inspire readers to reshape the way they view the economy, its possibilities, and their place within it.

Living the Technology Revolution...

Martin K. Ettington

This isn't a book filled with dry timelines or technical blueprints of the digital revolution. Instead, it's a firsthand journey—my journey—through one of the most astonishing transformations in human history: the rise of personal computing and the dawn of the digital age.
I was born in November 1955, at a time when the word “computer” was barely whispered outside of military labs and universities. My earliest memories include a bulky black-and-white television with rabbit-ear antennas, broadcasting a single channel. That flickering screen was my first encounter with electronic media—a far cry from the high-definition, touch-responsive world we live in now.
Over the decades, my path as an engineer and software developer placed me squarely in the midst of this technological upheaval. I didn’t just watch the future arrive—I helped build it, one line of code and one innovation at a time.
This book is a personal time capsule—a chronicle of what it was really like to live through the shift from analog to digital, from typewriters to tablets, from rotary phones to the infinite power in our pockets today. If you're a younger reader curious about how we got here, or someone who remembers the glow of vacuum tubes and the clack of punch cards, I invite you to walk with me through the decades.
You may be surprised by how far we’ve come—and how much we’ve forgotten along the way.
Many of the chapters are identified with the years or periods of time where these changes occurred.
