Sinopse

Parmenides by Plato (Greek: Παρμενίδης) is one of the dialogues of Plato. It is widely considered to be one of the most challenging and enigmatic of Plato's dialogues.

The Parmenides purports to be an account of a meeting between the two great philosophers of the Eleatic school, Parmenides and Zeno of Elea, and a young Socrates. The occasion of the meeting was the reading by Zeno of his treatise defending Parmenidean monism against those partisans of plurality who asserted that Parmenides' supposition that there is a one gives rise to intolerable absurdities and contradictions.

The dialogue is set during a supposed meeting between Parmenides and Zeno of Elea in Socrates' hometown of Athens. This dialogue is chronologically the earliest of all as Socrates is only nineteen years old here. It is also notable that he takes the position of the student here while Parmenides serves as the lecturer.
The whole dialogue is likely fictitious as Parmenides and Zeno of Elea lived in Southern Italy which was in the process of being colonized by Greeks at the time.

    The Engines of Evil is an intelligent and comprehensive exploration of the Waffen SS's pivotal role in World War II and the Holocaust. It sheds light on how this formidable military organization not only fought battles on the front lines but also became the vanguard of Nazi terror and genocide. 
Key Features of the Book:In-Depth Analysis: The book provides a thorough examination of the Waffen SS's evolution from Hitler's elite personal guard to a multifaceted force intricately involved in Nazi atrocities.Ideological Insights: It explores the National Socialist ideology that fueled the SS's actions and justified its atrocities, offering a deep dive into the mindset that enabled ordinary men to commit extraordinary crimes.Mechanisms of Genocide: The book meticulously details the operational and bureaucratic systems that facilitated the Holocaust and other genocidal acts, exposing the cold efficiency with which these atrocities were carried out.Personal Narratives: Through firsthand accounts and historical records, the experiences of both perpetrators and victims are brought to life, providing a human dimension to the historical narrative.Broader Context: The work places the Holocaust within the wider spectrum of Nazi genocidal policies, including the conquest and racial reshaping of Eastern Europe. 
Understanding the origins and execution of the Holocaust and Nazi genocide is crucial for preventing future atrocities. The Engines of Evil provides a critical and timely examination of the forces that led to one of the darkest chapters in human history. It serves as a stark reminder of the capacity for evil that exists within society and the importance of maintaining vigilance against the ideologies and systems that foster hatred and violence.

    The ultimate guide to help Black families navigate the college admissions process. 
 
Finding the right college is a challenge for all students. But Black families face additional challenges and questions while navigating the admissions process. In The Black Family's Guide to College Admissions, veteran admissions experts Timothy L. Fields and Shereem Herndon-Brown share provocative insights and demystify this complex process to answer important questions from where to apply to how to get in. 
 
Fields and Herndon-Brown discuss specific concerns for Black families that are not often addressed by school counselors or other resources. They highlight how the current social justice movement amplifies the distinct dynamics that exist between Historically Black Colleges and Universities and predominantly white institutions and which college choices may be best for Black students. Fields and Herndon-Brown pull from decades of experience to offer the savvy advice that Black families need. Having worked on both sides of the desk—as school counselors and as college admissions gatekeepers—they are well equipped to give parents, students, and school counselors the information and inspiration to successfully research and navigate the admission journey. 
 
The higher education landscape is constantly evolving, and admissions criteria have evolved with it. Fields and Herndon-Brown cover everything from athletic recruitment and artistic talents to financial aid and step-by-step instructions for how to get through the college search and application processes. A list of the best colleges for Black students, a glossary of terms, a list of notable Black college graduates, a suggested reading list, and an FAQ section to round out the guide. The Black Family's Guide to College Admissions is the definitive resource to begin the complex conversation of understanding the choices that Black families face as they go through the college admissions process at the intersection of education, parenting, and race.
