The entire book is written as a diary, where Olivia recounts the various events of the days and weeks.

    The Problems of Philosophy is a 1912 book by Bertrand Russell, in which the author attempts to create a brief and accessible guide to the problems of philosophy. Focusing on problems he believes will provoke positive and constructive discussion, Russell concentrates on knowledge rather than metaphysics: If it is uncertain that external objects exist, how can we then have knowledge of them but by probability. There is no reason to doubt the existence of external objects simply because of sense data.

    World War II was a conflict shaped by countless strategic decisions, moments of chance, and pivotal battles. While the Axis powers achieved stunning victories in the early years, several key turning points ultimately led to their downfall. But what if just a few of these moments had played out differently? Could the Axis have secured victory? 
    One of the most significant turning points was the Battle of Britain. After the fall of France in 1940, Germany stood at the doorstep of the United Kingdom, preparing for a possible invasion. The Luftwaffe launched a fierce aerial assault, aiming to cripple British defenses and force a surrender. However, the Royal Air Force, supported by radar technology and an unyielding civilian spirit, held firm. If the Luftwaffe had adjusted its strategy—focusing more on airfields instead of shifting to city bombings—the RAF might have been overwhelmed. A weakened Britain could have been forced to negotiate peace, removing a major Allied power from the war. 
    Another crucial moment came with Operation Barbarossa, Germany’s invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. Hitler’s decision to open an Eastern Front spread Axis forces thin and underestimated Soviet resilience. If the invasion had started earlier in the year, avoiding the brutal Russian winter, German forces might have reached Moscow before Soviet reinforcements stabilized the front. Additionally, had Germany prioritized capturing Soviet oil fields in the Caucasus over direct assaults on major cities, the Wehrmacht could have sustained its war machine much longer. A Soviet collapse would have left Germany dominant in Europe, free to shift its focus elsewhere.
