  Being a parent is probably the most important job many of us will ever have. In this book, clinical psychologist Dr. Edward Christophersen and his colleague, child psychologist Dr. Susan Mortweet, show parents how to raise their child to become the adult we'd all like to be—one who is happy and compassionate, confident but not aggressive, and able to make and keep friends. 
   
   
   
  They point out that from babyhood on through the school years, children learn these qualities by observing and interacting with their parents. In clearly written, easy-to-follow chapters, parents are shown how to model and reward positive behaviors and avoid the need for ineffective, punitive discipline. 
   
   
   
  Two key areas are covered in the book: building one's own skills as a parent, and then building one's child's competencies. Scores of practical examples show parents how to teach their children what is important in life, how to communicate clearly, and how to effectively discipline their child. Special parenting topics such as managing a child's behavior in public, monitoring TV, toys, and games, and handling fallout from divorce are also discussed. Listeners then learn how to build their child's basic skills by teaching him or her how to quickly get over upsets and how to play independently.

  Michel Foucault - The...

  Michel Foucault, a French philosopher, historian, and social theorist, is renowned for his critical exploration of power, knowledge, and social institutions. Born in 1926, Foucault’s work spans a range of disciplines, from philosophy to sociology, psychology, and political science. His intellectual journey reflects a unique approach to understanding human societies, focusing not on abstract metaphysical systems but on the structures that shape human behavior, knowledge, and institutions. 
  Foucault’s work is marked by a critique of the traditional ways of understanding the relationship between individuals and society. He challenged the dominant historical narratives and sought to uncover the deeper structures of power that influenced the development of knowledge. One of his central ideas was that knowledge and power are intimately connected—knowledge is not neutral but shaped by power relations that determine what is considered true or false. In this sense, his work was not just theoretical but deeply political, as it explored how systems of power create the conditions for knowledge and vice versa. 
  Foucault’s philosophy is often associated with his concept of "genealogy," a method he developed to investigate historical processes and the ways in which ideas, norms, and practices evolve over time. However, it is in his "archaeology of knowledge" that he makes his most significant philosophical contributions. The archaeological method is a way of analyzing the historical layers of knowledge and uncovering the deep structures that underlie our understanding of the world. Unlike traditional historiography, which tends to focus on narratives and individuals, Foucault's archaeology examines the discourses and institutions that create and maintain knowledge, highlighting the ways they shape and limit what can be known.

  The Eurasian Century - Hot Wars...

  We often think of the modern era as the age of American power. In reality, we're living in a long, violent Eurasian century. That giant, resource-rich landmass possesses the bulk of the global population, industrial might, and potential military power. Eurasia is a strategic prize without equal—which is why the world has been roiled, reshaped, and nearly destroyed by clashes over the supercontinent. 
   
   
   
  Since the early twentieth century, autocratic powers have aspired for dominance by seizing commanding positions in the world's strategic heartland. Offshore sea powers, namely the United Kingdom and America, have sought to make the world safe for democracy by keeping Eurasia in balance. America's rivalries with China, Russia, and Iran are the next round in this geopolitical game. If this new authoritarian axis succeeds in enacting a radically revised international order, America and other democracies will be vulnerable and insecure. 
   
   
   
  Hal Brands argues that a better understanding of Eurasia's strategic geography can illuminate the contours of rivalry and conflict in today's world. The Eurasian Century explains how revolutions in technology and warfare, and the rise of toxic ideologies of conquest, made Eurasia the center of twentieth-century geopolitics—with pressing implications for the struggles that will define the twenty-first.
