    Mankind in Amnesia

    Immanuel Velikovsky

    Immanuel Velikovsky called this book the "fulfillment of his oath of Hippocrates—to serve humanity." In this book, he returns to his roots as a psychologist and psychoanalytical therapist, yet not with a single person as his patient but with humanity as a whole. After an extremely revealing overview of the foundations of the various psychoanalytical systems he makes the step into crowd psychology and reopens the case of Worlds in Collision from a totally different point of view: as a psychoanalytical case study. This way he shows that the blatant reactions to his theories (which are still going on today) have not been surprising but are actually inevitable from a psychological perspective—which equally holds for those who have defined our view of the world. At the same time he is able to reclassify the theories of Siegmund Freud and of C. G. Jung by finding a common basis for them. A journey through history, religion, mythology and art shows the overall range of the collective trauma and gives us—the patients—a message of extraordinary urgency and importance for the future.

    When we talk about Presocratic philosophy, we are speaking about the origins of Greek philosophy and Western rationality itself. But what exactly does it mean to talk about “Presocratic philosophy” in the first place? How did early Greek thinkers come to be considered collectively as Presocratic philosophers? In this brief book, André Laks provides a history of the influential idea of Presocratic philosophy, tracing its historical and philosophical significance and consequences, from its ancient antecedents to its full crystallization in the modern period and its continuing effects today.Laks examines ancient Greek and Roman views about the birth of philosophy before turning to the eighteenth-century emergence of the term “Presocratics” and the debates about it that spanned the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He analyzes the intellectual circumstances that led to the idea of Presocratic philosophy—and what was and is at stake in the construction of the notion. The book closes by comparing two models of the history of philosophy—the phenomenological, represented by Hans-Georg Gadamer, and the rationalist, represented by Ernst Cassirer—and their implications for Presocratic philosophy, as well as other categories of philosophical history. Other figures discussed include Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Diogenes Laertius, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Nietzsche, Max Weber, and J.-P. Vernant.Challenging standard histories of Presocratic philosophy, the book calls for a reconsideration of the conventional story of early Greek philosophy and Western rationality.

    The concept of smart cities has emerged as a transformative force in urban development, redefining the way people live, work, and move within urban spaces. At its core, a smart city integrates advanced technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data, to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of urban infrastructure. By leveraging these technologies, cities can address the growing challenges of population density, resource management, and environmental sustainability. 
    One of the key components of smart cities is their ability to connect and optimize various urban systems. Transportation networks, for instance, are becoming more interconnected and intelligent. Sensors embedded in roads, traffic signals, and public transit vehicles gather real-time data that helps manage congestion, optimize routes, and improve safety. In cities like Singapore, smart traffic management systems have already reduced travel times and minimized emissions, showcasing the potential of technology-driven solutions. 
    Smart cities also prioritize sustainability by incorporating green initiatives and resource-efficient systems. Renewable energy sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines, are increasingly integrated into urban grids, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Water management systems, equipped with IoT sensors, monitor usage and detect leaks to prevent waste. These efforts are particularly important as cities strive to achieve climate targets and reduce their ecological footprints.

    The southern Indian kingdoms played a crucial role in shaping the history and culture of the subcontinent. Among them, the Chera, Chola, and Pandya dynasties stood out for their military power, economic influence, and contributions to art and literature.  
    The Chera Dynasty, known for its control over important trade routes, established strong maritime links with Rome, China, and Southeast Asia.  
    The Chola Empire, one of the most formidable powers of medieval India, expanded its influence beyond the Indian subcontinent, boasting a powerful navy and an advanced administrative system.  
    The Pandya Empire, with its deep roots in Tamil culture, was known for its patronage of Sangam literature and its strategic dominance over key trade centers. These dynasties not only shaped the political landscape of southern India but also contributed to its rich artistic, architectural, and literary heritage. Through their extensive trade networks and cultural achievements, the Cheras, Cholas, and Pandyas left an enduring legacy that continues to influence South Indian traditions today.
