  The Shang Dynasty, often considered the first historically confirmed dynasty of ancient China, marked the beginning of a new era in Chinese civilization. Flourishing from around 1600 to 1046 BCE, the Shang established a highly organized society, developed a complex system of governance, and made significant advancements in art, technology, and culture. Their rise to power followed the decline of the Xia Dynasty, an era that remains shrouded in legend, with little concrete archaeological evidence to confirm its existence. The emergence of the Shang brought structure, stability, and a more defined political system, setting the foundation for future dynasties. 
  According to traditional Chinese historical accounts, the Shang Dynasty was founded by Tang, a ruler known for his wisdom and leadership. He is said to have overthrown the last Xia king, who was notorious for his tyranny and misrule. This transition of power was not merely a change in leadership but a transformation of governance, as the Shang kings implemented a more centralized authority, strengthening their control over vast territories. The establishment of their capital, which shifted multiple times during the dynasty’s rule, demonstrated their adaptability and strategic planning. The most well-documented capital, Yinxu (near present-day Anyang), provides extensive archaeological evidence of Shang civilization.

  "Studies in Pessimism" is a collection of philosophical essays by Arthur Schopenhauer, delving into his views on the nature of human existence, suffering, and the inevitability of pain and adversity in life. Schopenhauer explores the futility of human desires, the limitations of human intellect, and the relentless influence of the will on our actions.

Read in English, unabridged.

  This book consists of two titles, which are the following:\ 
  · Global Debt: The global debt crisis is one of the most pressing issues of our time, affecting nations, corporations, and individuals alike. Over the past several decades, debt has skyrocketed across the world, creating a complex web of financial obligations that have far-reaching consequences. As debt levels soar, the very foundations of economic stability are being threatened, with severe implications for future generations. This book seeks to explore the various dimensions of the global debt crisis and its impact on societies and economies. 
  · Global Poverty: Global poverty remains one of the most pressing challenges of our time, reflecting a deepening divide in the world’s wealth. Despite advances in technology, medicine, and economic systems, billions of people continue to live in conditions of extreme deprivation. This chapter introduces the complexities of global poverty, exploring its definition, scope, and implications for societies worldwide. At its core, poverty is not merely a lack of income but a multifaceted issue encompassing inadequate access to basic needs such as food, clean water, healthcare, and education. The World Bank defines extreme poverty as living on less than $2.15 a day, a figure that starkly contrasts with the extravagant wealth enjoyed by the world’s richest individuals and nations. Beyond material deprivation, poverty often strips individuals of dignity, opportunity, and hope for a better future.
