  • 0

  In this work, Russell presents his views on the problems of modern society and offers his proposals for a better future. He critiques both capitalism and socialism as inadequate solutions, and instead advocates for a system based on guild socialism, where workers control the means of production and are organized into functional groups. Russell argues that the ultimate goal of society should be the development of the individual, and proposes a society that is organized around individual freedom and fulfillment rather than material wealth. He advocates for the abolition of the wage system and the establishment of a system of economic cooperation and communal ownership. He also discusses the role of education in a free society, arguing that it should be aimed at cultivating creativity, critical thinking, and individuality. Read in English, unabridged.

  1742: the famous dome atop Saint Peter's Basilica, designed by Michelangelo, is fractured and threatened with collapse. The dome is the pride of Italy and the largest of its kind anywhere in the world. And no one knows how to fix it. 
   
   
   
  This engaging and colorful narrative tells the overlooked story of how Michelangelo's Dome was saved from disaster by three mathematicians and Pope Benedict XIV, who had asked them for help. It is a gripping story of decisive leadership, crisis management, and scientific innovation, and the resistance that was faced when sailing into the headwinds of conventional thought. 
   
   
   
  In Saving Michelangelo's Dome, Stanford-trained engineer Wayne Kalayjian illustrates how new ideas in science and mathematics established an entirely new way of looking at the world—as well as solving its complex problems. In the end, listeners will appreciate that in saving Michelangelo's Dome from collapse, these three mathematicians and one determined pope unknowingly invented the profession of engineering as we practice it today. With it, they transformed the architectural world and ushered in generations of future buildings and structures that, otherwise, would never have been built.

  What if Alexander the Great never died in Babylon? 
  Empire Rewritten reimagines a world where the most brilliant conqueror of the ancient world lives on—and reshapes everything. From surviving the fever that took him in his prime, to confronting rebellion in Greece and forging a global army, this book explores the turning point of a life extended and a history rewritten. 
  This is not dry historical theory. It's living, breathing storytelling—deeply human, yet rich with global vision. With immersive characters, geopolitical stakes, and a reimagined ancient world pulsing with possibility, Empire Rewritten is the beginning of an epic journey that spans not just continents—but ideas. 
  This first book covers Alexander's survival, the renewed Persian dream, his growing spiritual aura, the resistance from within Greece, and his deeper dive into unifying cultures by choice, not force. This is where myth meets the realpolitik of empire—and a different future begins.
