  Porn Addiction - Breaking Free...

  Porn addiction is a complex and multifaceted issue that extends beyond mere exposure to explicit content. It involves a compulsive behavior pattern where the pursuit of pornographic material starts to dominate an individual’s daily life, affecting mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. Understanding this phenomenon requires a holistic look at how modern technology, societal influences, and neurobiological factors converge to create an environment in which such compulsions can take root. 
  At its core, porn addiction can be viewed as a maladaptive coping mechanism. Many individuals turn to porn as a way to escape stress, anxiety, or feelings of inadequacy, seeking solace in a virtual world that offers a temporary reprieve from their problems. However, what begins as a form of self-medication can quickly evolve into an uncontrollable habit. The accessibility and anonymity provided by the internet have only amplified the prevalence of this behavior, allowing individuals to indulge in it without immediate consequences. Over time, the brain’s reward system becomes hijacked by repeated exposure to high-stimulation content, leading to a cycle where more extreme material is needed to achieve the same level of satisfaction. 
  This chapter also explores the societal and cultural factors that contribute to the normalization of porn consumption. In many modern societies, discussions around sexuality and explicit content have become increasingly liberal, inadvertently minimizing the perceived risks associated with overconsumption. While open dialogues about sexuality can be empowering, they sometimes fail to address the potential for dependency and the underlying emotional issues that may drive an individual towards excessive use. Recognizing these subtleties is essential for those who seek to understand and ultimately overcome the grip of porn addiction.

  Special Men - A LRP's Recollections

  A recipient of two Purple Hearts gives readers an inside view of US Army special forces through his own trial by fire during the Vietnam War. Days before he was drafted in 1962, Dennis Foley volunteered to join the army in the hopes of someday getting into West Point. He was only eighteen years old. At basic training in Fort Dix, New Jersey, a presentation by two impressive, self-confident special forces sergeants made an indelible impression on him. His career would come full circle. In 1972, wearing a green beret, Foley would be given command of his own A-Team. But between those two pivotal moments, his determination, loyalty, and mental and physical strength would be tested as never before, fighting in the jungles of Vietnam alongside the bravest men he would ever know. In Special Men, Foley describes his experience at the 7th Army NCO Academy in Germany, where he learned more about leadership than at any other school he would later attend. He takes us moment-by-moment on his heart-pounding introduction to combat—a nighttime, amphibious ambush patrol with the South Vietnamese Navy. We see the shock set in upon realizing that conventional training left him unprepared for the guerrilla army he faced in Vietnam. And we share his sadness over fallen comrades and his own relief at surviving his injuries. This is an unvarnished account of horror and heroism and a tribute to the unselfish devotion to duty of the LRPs, Rangers, and Green Berets.

  French Revolution The: An...

  The French Revolution is incredibly complex and involves a lot of moving parts, from the monarchy to the political clubs, from the intelligentsia to the starving peasantry protesting in the streets. This audiobook breaks it down for you in simple terms. 
  It could be argued that the French Revolution is the perfect example of a social movement that began with the best of intentions yet somehow went wrong.  
  The ideologues of the French Revolution were seeking to create a better, more just society. Their eloquent and profound words about equality, freedom of religion, and sound representation became a great source of inspiration for many. French Enlightenment thinkers even influenced the American Revolution, which occurred prior to France’s revolution. 
  But while the American Revolution resulted in the founding of a nation based upon the principles of democracy and representative government, the French Revolution devolved into an utter nightmare, especially for those in the upper class. 
  The French Revolution witnessed mob violence of the worse kind. Practically no one was safe. The king and queen were killed by the guillotine, and so was the Jacobin architect of the “Great Terror,” Maximilien Robespierre. Then, in perhaps one of the greatest ironies of all, the French Revolution ended with the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, who became a dictator. Many scholars refer to Napoleon as an “enlightened despot,” but he was a dictator all the same.  
  The French Revolution does indeed present itself as an incredibly perplexing paradox. What happened? What went wrong? Here in this audiobook, we explore the possibilities.
