Beschreibung

In the midst of the chaos and uncertainty of the Mexican-American War, one man's journal offers a rare glimpse into the realities of combat, the resilience of the human spirit, and the profound impact of war on individuals and nations.

Dr. Thomas Neely Love, a surgeon in the Second Regiment Mississippi Infantry, left behind a firsthand account of his experiences in his journal, a powerful and moving narrative that transports readers back in time to one of the most significant events in American history.

Love's journal is not only a valuable historical document but also a deeply personal story of courage, resilience, and humanity. Through his eyes, we witness the transformation of a nation, the birth of new heroes, and the enduring legacy of a conflict that continues to shape the United States today.

From the early battles of the war to the final push towards Mexico City, Love's journal takes readers on a gripping journey through the horrors of combat, the challenges of providing medical care in a time of chaos, and the emotional toll on the soldiers.

But Love's journal is more than just a chronicle of war. It is also a story of hope, resilience, and the enduring power of the human spirit. Love's compassion for his patients, his unwavering dedication to his duty, and his ability to find moments of beauty and grace even in the darkest of times are a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

In this book, we delve into the pages of Love's journal, exploring the complexities of the Mexican-American War and its lasting impact on the United States. We follow Love's journey from his home in Mississippi to the battlefields of Mexico, and we witness the transformation of a young doctor into a seasoned veteran. We also explore the broader context of the war, examining its causes, consequences, and legacy.

Through Love's eyes, we gain a deeper understanding of the sacrifices made by those who served in the Mexican-American War, and we are reminded of the profound impact that war can have on individuals, communities, and nations.

    This book contains four books, which are: 
    - Forsaken Realms: Throughout history, there have been places where human ambition, industry, or even nature’s cruelty has left behind stark reminders of a world once bustling with life, now standing frozen in time. These forsaken realms—whether born of abandonment, catastrophe, or the slow erosion of human civilization—whisper tales of a forgotten past. They are the remnants of once-thriving cities, sprawling industries, and cultures now reduced to ruins, each holding secrets that time has almost claimed. 
    - Terra Incognita: To document the unknown is to navigate a delicate and often treacherous path. It is an undertaking that demands curiosity and courage, tempered by discipline and respect for the subject at hand. When the unknown takes the form of a remote, enigmatic island, the challenges multiply, and the journey becomes as much about understanding ourselves as it is about uncovering the mysteries of the place. 
    - The Bargain Paradise: An economical dwelling is a home designed with cost-efficiency in mind, blending affordability, functionality, and sustainability. The concept of such a dwelling goes beyond simply being cheap; it involves thoughtful design choices that minimize expenses while maintaining comfort and quality of life. At its core, an economical dwelling aims to reduce the financial burden on its owner without sacrificing the essential aspects of a well-built home. 
    - Himalaya Doomsday Device: In the vast expanse of the Himalayas, hidden beneath centuries of snow and ice, lay a secret that had been buried for generations. The towering peaks, once home to monks and ancient civilizations, now shielded a dark legacy that time itself had forgotten. The truth about this forgotten legacy, however, was about to resurface, altering the course of history and threatening the very future of a nation.

    Black, Not Historically Black by Joseph L. Jones is a compelling exploration of the historical and contemporary challenges faced by Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).  
    Jones, a seasoned political scientist and former HBCU president, delves into the systemic issues of leadership, miseducation, culture, sustainability, respect, and social justice within these institutions. Drawing on his extensive experience and the writings of W.E.B. Du Bois, Jones advocates for a transformative vision he calls the Pan Black College and University (PBCU). 
    This vision emphasizes leadership that fosters justice, a curriculum centered on the Black experience, a healthy organizational culture, financial independence, and a commitment to social justice and Pan-Africanism. Through personal anecdotes, scholarly analysis, and a call to action, Jones challenges readers to rethink and reimagine the future of Black colleges as vital incubators for change in Black communities and beyond.

    An action-oriented approach for businesses to solve the world’s most urgent social problems — and benefit from doing so.
    		 
    More than a year into a global pandemic, profit and shareholder value are no longer the primary metric of business success. Customers, shareholders, and communities are demanding that companies do good, do more, and do better. In Change for Good, Paul Klein shows how companies must move beyond what he calls “corporate social responsibility light” and demonstrate how they can help solve social problems that have been defined as UN Sustainable Development Goals.
    		 
    Change for Good is a new system for making social change through business that reflects Paul’s experience over the last 35 years. One of the core principles of Change for Good is including people with lived experience of social problems in identifying promising solutions and collaborating to bring these solutions to life. This methodology can create impactful and sustainable social change in society in ways that aren’t possible when executives make decisions in their boardrooms that are intended to impact the lives of vulnerable people.
    		 
    Through personal experiences, case studies, and practical tools, Change for Good will inspire readers and their organizations to make the shift from a passive social responsibility to taking action to help solve the world’s most pressing social problems.

    Life is a journey, and along this journey, we often find ourselves searching for something that will bring us lasting contentment: happiness. Yet, happiness is not a destination to be reached, but a path to be walked. In a world that constantly demands more from us, it can be easy to overlook the power of small, intentional steps toward joy. We get caught up in the chase for success, the pursuit of external validation, or the quest to fix what we perceive as wrong in our lives. However, true happiness lies not in the perfect outcome, but in how we approach the journey itself. 
      
    The idea of joy often seems elusive, something that is dependent on circumstances or fleeting moments. But what if we could choose joy, not just as a reaction to life’s happenings, but as a conscious decision we make each day? What if every step along the way, regardless of the situation or challenge, could be an opportunity to cultivate happiness? This book is about discovering that joy is not just something you find, but something you create as you go.

    Over the past five years, the Indo-Pacific region's importance for Europe has grown significantly. However, the launch of the EU Strategy for cooperation in the Indo-Pacific in September 2021 and its subsequent implementation have been affected by growing polarisation between the US and China, and by a fast-changing scenario caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This Report examines the state and perspectives of the EU's Indo-Pacific strategy, 18 months after its launch. Are there avenues for cooperation with regional military initiatives, such as the QUAD? How is the economic landscape changing, in particular after the start of negotiations for the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity (IPEF)? What are the main strategies of Indo-Pacific countries for the green transition? And how do the US, China, and ASEAN countries view and act in the Indo-Pacific region?
