  Myths of India The: The History...

  Though it was one of the most advanced civilizations of its time and responsible for the most ancient prehistoric urban sites across the Indian subcontinent, the Indus Valley Civilization was forgotten for millennia, until 20th century archaeologists rediscovered and began excavations at Mohenjo-daro and Harappa. Although the civilization primarily flourished between approximately 3000 and 1500 BCE, these ancient Indians had longer lasting influences on the urbanization of the Indian subcontinent for centuries after, thanks to their monumental buildings and walls, enormous manmade platforms, innovative architectural techniques, and evidence that they engaged in trade over vast distances, with high-quality artifacts sent from the Indus Valley as far as Mesopotamia and even Africa.  
  	Of course, the Indus Valley Civilization and their successors, the Aryans, also influenced indigenous Indian religion and mythology. In the West, Hinduism is a religion that everyone has heard of but one that few non-practitioners truly understand. Today it is widely regarded as one of the world’s great religions and considered the indigenous religion of India, with practices and beliefs stretching back thousands of years.  
  	In reality, Hinduism as it is conceived of today is a conglomerate of a number of indigenous Indian religions. In fact, prior to the migration of Islam and the corporate invasion of the British, Hinduism may not have existed at all. Rather, a number of local religious traditions had very old belief systems dating back hundreds or thousands of years, depending on the tradition, and many worshiped gods that are no longer worshiped today. In essence, it was only through the non-indigenous populations in India, namely the Turks and later the British, who defined what Hinduism was.

  How to Talk About Love - An...

  What is love? In poetry, songs, fiction, movies, psychology, and philosophy, love has been described, admired, lamented, and dissected in endless ways. Is love based on physical attraction? Does it bring out our better selves? How does it relate to sex? Is love divine? Plato's Symposium is one of the oldest, most influential, and most profound explorations of such questions—it is even the source of the idea of "Platonic love." How to Talk about Love introduces and presents the key passages and central ideas of Plato's philosophical dialogue in a lively new translation. 
   
   
   
  The Symposium is set at a fictional drinking party during which prominent Athenians engage in a friendly competition by delivering improvised speeches in praise of Eros, the Greek god of love and sex. The aristocrat Phaedrus, the legal expert Pausanias, the physician Eryximachus, the comic playwright Aristophanes, and the tragic poet Agathon—each by turn celebrates different aspects of love before Socrates proposes not to praise love but to tell the truth about it. In the final speech, the politician and libertine Alcibiades argues that Socrates himself is the epitome of love. 
   
   
   
  Deftly capturing the essence and spirit of Plato's masterpiece, How to Talk about Love makes the Symposium more accessible and enjoyable than ever before.

  The Evolution of Urban Planning...

  Urban planning is the process by which cities, towns, and other urban spaces are designed, organized, and managed. It is a field that encompasses various aspects of human life, from infrastructure to social dynamics, and aims to create environments that promote the well-being of residents and the sustainability of the urban ecosystem. The importance of urban planning lies in its ability to shape the physical, social, and economic structure of a community. It influences the way people interact with their environment and with each other, determining the accessibility of resources, the flow of traffic, and the availability of green spaces, among other factors. 
  The evolution of urban planning can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where early cities were often designed around central hubs of commerce, religion, or governance. In these early stages, urban planning was driven by necessity, focusing primarily on basic functions like defense, water management, and trade. Over time, as cities grew and became more complex, the need for more organized and systematic approaches to urban development emerged. This shift was marked by the introduction of formal planning principles that considered not only the practical aspects of urban life but also the aesthetic, cultural, and social needs of the inhabitants. 
  In the modern era, urban planning became an established profession, with experts tasked with the responsibility of designing and managing urban spaces to meet the growing demands of an increasingly urbanized population. The industrial revolution, for example, brought about massive shifts in population density and the structure of cities. It prompted the creation of zoning laws, housing regulations, and other planning policies that addressed new challenges such as pollution, overcrowding, and public health. These developments laid the groundwork for the more sophisticated planning techniques used in contemporary cities.
