Summary

"Old Health Regimens" masterfully bridges ancient wellness wisdom with modern scientific understanding, exploring how historical health practices from 500 BCE to 500 CE remain relevant in today's world. The book systematically examines three fundamental aspects of traditional health maintenance: classical exercise routines, time-tested dietary frameworks, and the scientific principles that validate these ancient approaches.

 
Through careful analysis of archaeological evidence, preserved medical texts, and military documents, the book reveals how civilizations from Greek and Roman to Asian cultures developed sophisticated systems for maintaining physical wellness. The work presents fascinating insights into Greek gymnasium protocols and Roman military training, demonstrating how these ancient fitness systems align with contemporary exercise science.

 
Particularly intriguing is the book's examination of traditional Mediterranean and Asian dietary patterns, showing how these historical eating habits mirror modern nutritional recommendations. Each chapter builds upon this foundation, moving from practical exercise methodologies to comprehensive dietary frameworks, before culminating in scientific validation of these time-tested practices.

 
What sets this book apart is its unique interdisciplinary approach, combining archaeological findings with current clinical research to create a practical guide for modern readers. Rather than simply cataloging historical practices, it provides adaptable protocols that readers can incorporate into their contemporary fitness routines. This bridge between ancient wisdom and modern science offers health professionals, fitness enthusiasts, and history buffs a fresh perspective on wellness, supported by both historical documentation and current scientific understanding.

Leveraging Latency - How the...

Tristan A. Volpe

When does nuclear latency—the technical capacity to build the bomb—enable states to pursue effective coercion? 
 
 
 
In Leveraging Latency, Tristan A. Volpe argues that having greater capacity to build weaponry doesn't translate to greater coercive advantage. Volpe finds that there is a trade-off between threatening proliferation and promising nuclear restraint. States need just enough bomb-making capacity to threaten proliferation, but not so much that it becomes too difficult for them to offer nonproliferation assurances. The boundaries of this sweet spot align with the capacity to produce the fissile material at the heart of an atomic weapon. 
 
 
 
To test this argument, Volpe includes comparative case studies of four countries that leveraged latency against superpowers: Japan, West Germany, North Korea, and Iran. In doing so, Volpe identifies a generalizable mechanism—the threat-assurance trade-off—that explains why more power often makes compellence less likely to work. This framework illuminates how technology shapes broader bargaining dynamics and helps to refine policy options for inhibiting the spread of nuclear weapons. As nuclear technology continues to cast a shadow over the global landscape, Leveraging Latency provides a systematic assessment of its coercive utility.

Why Women Prefer a Cheater

A.A. Castor

Why do women stay with men who cheat on them?
Why do so many fall for married men, agree to be the mistress, or even enjoy sex more outside of marriage than within it?
Why Women Prefer a Cheater isn't a polite conversation. It's a deep, unapologetic, and disturbingly honest exploration of female desire—rooted in biology, shaped by history, warped by psychology, and censored by culture.
This book does not offer empty empowerment slogans or fairy-tale relationship advice. Instead, it tackles the raw and uncomfortable truths:That women are biologically drawn to dominant, often unfaithful men.That affairs can offer psychological escape from the suffocation of modern monogamy.That cultural shame trains women to silently blame themselves for male betrayal.That "loyalty" often rewards women with nothing but resentment and self-erasure.
Through chapters like The Dual Mating Strategy, The Psychology of the Mistress, Sex, Marriage, and the Decline of Desire, and The Hidden Cost and Secret Freedom, A.A. Castor exposes the brutal realities behind cheating, desire, and the unspoken decisions women make to survive love, betrayal, and expectation.
Blending science, dark humor, and harsh truths, this book isn't for the faint of heart. It's for every woman who's ever been the wife, the other woman, or the one who stopped believing in fairy tales.
Forget what society taught you about love.
Forget what you were told about loyalty.
This book isn't here to comfort—it's here to wake you up.
