Synopsis

In the heart of the Middle East, a city of ancient history and spiritual significance has endured centuries of conflict and turmoil. Jerusalem, a city holy to three major religions, has been a battleground for empires and ideologies, leaving deep scars on its people and its landscape.

Forgotten Siege: A History of Jerusalem in Conflict delves into the lesser-known stories and perspectives that have shaped Jerusalem's tumultuous past. Through vivid storytelling and rigorous research, this book sheds new light on the forgotten chapters of the city's history, challenging conventional narratives and offering a fresh perspective on the challenges facing Jerusalem today.

From the Crusades to the British Mandate, Jerusalem has been a city divided. The conflict between Israelis and Palestinians has left deep wounds on the city, dividing it physically and socially. Forgotten Siege explores the impact of this division on the city's culture, economy, and people.

But Jerusalem is also a city of resilience and hope. Despite the conflict, the city has survived and thrived, thanks in part to the determination of its people. Forgotten Siege tells the stories of individuals who have lived through war, occupation, and division, sharing their experiences of resilience, hope, and longing for peace.

This book is a timely and essential contribution to our understanding of one of the world's most contested and misunderstood cities. It is a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the history, culture, and politics of this remarkable city.

Forgotten Siege is a call for a just and lasting peace in Jerusalem, a city that has suffered for too long. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of dialogue and understanding.

    The Sleep-ADHD Connection -...

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Millions of adults are living with attention problems they cannot explain. They lose things, forget conversations, struggle to start tasks, and cannot focus on anything that does not provide immediate stimulation. Many have been told this is ADHD. Some have been medicated for it. What almost none of them have been told is that every single one of these symptoms is also produced, precisely and measurably, by insufficient sleep. 
     
    This audiobook does not argue that ADHD is not real. It is real, and it is serious. What it argues is that the symptoms of ADHD and the symptoms of chronic sleep deprivation are so similar that one is routinely mistaken for the other — and that for a significant number of people, the diagnosis was made before the sleep was ever considered. 
     
    Grounded in neuroscience and sleep research, and told through the experiences of two people navigating the overlap from the inside, this is the clearest explanation available of what sleep deprivation does to attention, working memory, dopamine, and the thinking brain — and what happens to all of those things when the sleep finally improves.

    The social contract & discourses

    In The Social Contract & Discourses, Jean Jacques Rousseau delves into the complexities of political and social philosophy. His work outlines the concept of the "social contract," a foundational theory that proposes individuals come together to form a collective body in which they agree to abide by the "general will." Rousseau critiques the inequality and corruption present in traditional systems of governance and advocates for a republic where the sovereignty lies with the people. The book discusses how the ideal state should be structured to ensure the preservation of freedom and equality for all citizens. Rousseau also examines human nature, arguing that while people are born free, society imposes constraints that limit their liberty. The text includes discourses on inequality, the origins of social structures, and the corrupting influence of civilization. This work remains a critical influence on modern political thought and offers profound insights into democracy, governance, and human rights.

    In May, 1986, at the Court of Appeals in Athens, Dr. Montgomery successfully defended three evangelical missionaries who had been given three-and-a half year prison terms for "proselytizing." The President of the United States and many congressional leaders had written to the Greek government in support of the defendants. Following the trial, Dr. Montgomery was asked to deliver a lecture on the subject at the International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem (June 19, 1986). Here is the recording of that account of one of the major Christian human rights trials of our time.
