Sinopsis

In the ever-shifting landscape of 18th-century Europe, Prussia emerged as an unlikely powerhouse, rising from a fragmented mosaic of German states to become a formidable kingdom that would shape the course of history. This captivating book delves into the depths of Prussia's remarkable ascent, exploring the intricate interplay between politics, society, and culture that fueled its transformation.

At the heart of Prussia's rise were its exceptional leaders, a lineage of visionaries and strategists who guided the kingdom through turbulent times. From the Great Elector, Frederick William, who laid the foundation for Prussia's future greatness, to Frederick William I, the Soldier King, who forged a formidable military, and ultimately to Frederick the Great, the enlightened ruler who expanded Prussia's territories and modernized its state and society, these leaders left an indelible mark on the nation's destiny.

Beyond the halls of power, Prussia's rise was shaped by the lives and contributions of its people. The book delves into the agrarian society that formed the backbone of Prussia's economy, the vibrant urban centers that fostered innovation and culture, and the religious beliefs that influenced Prussian identity and governance. By examining these diverse aspects of Prussian society, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the forces that propelled Prussia's ascent.

The book also sheds light on Prussia's role in the broader European context. It explores Prussia's complex relationship with its neighbors, the challenges it faced during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, and its ultimate triumph in unifying Germany under its leadership in 1871. This narrative highlights Prussia's pivotal role in shaping the political map of Europe and its lasting legacy on the continent.

Through a vivid and engaging narrative, this book offers a fresh perspective on Prussia's rise, capturing the essence of a kingdom that defied expectations and left an enduring mark on history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in European history, the intricacies of nation-building, and the enduring legacy of leadership and societal transformation.

    For decades, the medical profession has advocated for nutritional management as a treatment strategy for various illnesses, including diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and excessive cholesterol. There are currently no such recommendations for brain aging and dementia.Nutrition was only recently accorded scientific-field status. Eating is a valid technique for defending oneself against brain aging and disorders such as Alzheimer's. Scientists have gradually realized the vital link between the foods we eat and our mental health. This insight has spawned a rapidly rising body of studies indicating that we may be eating our way to dementia.What has gone unreported until now is that, of all the organs in our bodies, the brain is the one most easily harmed by a poor diet. Everything in the brain, from its architecture to its ability to perform, begs for optimal nutrition. Many of us are ignorant that the only way to fuel the brain is through our food. The meals we eat are broken down into nutrients, absorbed into the bloodstream, and transported to the brain to replenish depleted stores, stimulate cellular responses, and, most critically, be incorporated into brain tissue.We are what we eat!

    Into the Dark - What darkness is...

    Can you remember the first time you encountered true darkness? The kind that remains as black and inky whether your eyes are open or closed? Where you can't see your hand in front of your face? 
     
    Jacqueline Yallop can. It was in an unfamiliar bedroom while holidaying in Yorkshire as a child, and ever since then she has been fascinated by the dark, by our efforts to capture or avoid it, by the meanings we give to it and the way our brains process it. 
     
    Taking a journey into the dark secrets of place, body and mind, she documents a series of night-time walks, exploring both the physical realities of darkness and the psychological dark that helps shape our sense of self. Exploring our enduring love-hate relationship with states of darkness, she considers how we attempt to understand and contain the dark, and, as she comes to terms with her father's deteriorating Alzheimer's, she reflects on how our relationship to the dark can change with time and circumstance. 
     
    Darkness captivates, baffles and appals us. It's a shifty thing of many textures, many moods, a state of fascination and of horror, an absence and a presence, solace and threat, a beginning and an end. Into the Dark is the story of the many darks that fascinate and assail us. It faces the darkness full on in all its guises and mysteries, celebrating it as a thing of beauty while peering into the void.
