Synopsis

This unfinished dialogue continues the account of the legendary conflict between ancient Athens and the mighty island empire of Atlantis. It describes the geography, architecture, and eventual moral decline of the Atlantean civilization, which angered the gods. The text serves as a political allegory, contrasting the ideal state with an imperial power corrupted by wealth and ambition. Though incomplete, it is the primary source for the myth of the lost continent.

    The book "Duron Vekhe Sant Jarnail Singh Ji Bhindranwale" is written by Prof. Harpal Singh Pannu. He mentions in the beginning that he wrote exactly what he saw with his own eyes. He says, "It felt like Sant Jarnail Singh was my friend." But Sant Jarnail Singh was not anyone’s friend—he was a saint. A saint has no enemies or friends. I saw him as a great Sikh whose role in the Akali Dal was growing.

    Dying Green - A Journey through...

    The slow violence being inflicted on our environment—through everything from carbon emissions to plastic pollution—also represents an impending public health catastrophe. Yet standard health care practices are more concerned with short-term outcomes than long-term sustainability. Every resource used to deliver medical care, from IV tubes to antibiotics to electricity, has a significant environmental impact. This raises an urgent ethical dilemma: in striving to improve the health outcomes of individual patients, are we damaging human health on a global scale? 
     
     
      
    In Dying Green, award-winning educator Christine Vatovec offers an engaging study that asks us to consider the broader environmental sustainability of health care. Through a comparative analysis of the care provided to terminally ill patients in a conventional cancer ward, a palliative care unit, and an acute-care hospice facility, she shows how decisions made at a patient's bedside govern the environmental footprint of the healthcare industry. Likewise, Dying Green offers insights on the many opportunities that exist for reducing the ecological impacts of medical practices in general, while also enhancing care for the dying in particular. By envisioning a more sustainable approach to care, this book offers a way forward that is better for both patients and the planet.

    "Guilty Prayer is most stunning for how much it fits into a small space. All of this, no doubt, in praise of Steve Henn's brilliantly malleable poetic voice, which shifts tones, moods, and paces seamlessly between pages and between lines. I love this book for how it faces me, how it speaks to me, how it trusts me with what it knows. Reading this has made me a more generous person." - Hanif Abdurraqib 
    "Lithium and late-life sobriety - yes, please, and a music culled from the heartland as if from the pen of some Midwestern O'Hara in a time of 'dank memes' and the still reverberating echoes of Sparklehorse. Romance and failure, puking after a first sober Thanksgiving, the ghost of a long lost love, and poetry with 'surreal teenagers.' I recognize my place in Henn's America, in these days of no advantages, shattered dreams, and enough joy and art to live a life by." - David Dodd Lee 
    "Steve Henn peels back sorrow to reveal other emotions coiled inside it. Humor, bewilderment, guilt, tenderness. Grief as nexus, grief as quicksilver. Death and addiction are his subjects, yes. But Henn's language, like grief, is never static: it spirals into poems that are gripping, electrifying. I felt many things reading his work. Sorrow, yes. But also awe and gratitude." - Eduardo C. Corral

    Zarathustra, is a prophet who has spent years in solitude in the mountains, seeking enlightenment. He eventually descends from the mountains to share his wisdom with humanity. Throughout the book, Nietzsche presents his ideas on a variety of topics, including morality, religion, the nature of existence, and the human condition. He challenges traditional views on these subjects, advocating for a new, individualistic perspective that encourages the pursuit of one's own path in life. "Thus Spake Zarathustra" is known for its poetic and often cryptic language, as well as its challenging ideas. It has been interpreted in many different ways, and remains a cornerstone of Nietzsche's philosophy. Read in English, unabridged.

    Carthage was one of the great ancient civilizations, and at its peak, the wealthy Carthaginian empire dominated the Mediterranean against the likes of Greece and Rome, with commercial enterprises and influence stretching from Spain to Turkey. In fact, at several points in history it had a very real chance of replacing the fledgling Roman empire or the failing Greek poleis (city-states) altogether as master of the Mediterranean. Although Carthage by far preferred to exert economic pressure and influence before resorting to direct military power (and even went so far as to rely primarily on mercenary armies paid with its vast wealth for much of its history, it nonetheless produced a number of outstanding generals, from the likes of Hanno Magnus to, of course, the great bogeyman of Roman nightmares himself: Hannibal.  
    	What is often overlooked is how Carthage interacted with other groups in North Africa, some of which fought with them and against them. North Africa is generally thought of as a land devoid of life, full of nothing but desert wastelands and populated only by desert Bedouins, and while the Sahara Desert does comprise the majority of North Africa’s landmass, it is far from being the only significant sub-region of the area. Just to the north of the Sahara Desert, in what are today the modern nation-states of Algeria, Tunisia, and parts of Libya and Morocco, the land was known as Numidia in antiquity. Numida was the complete opposite of the North African stereotype of a desolate place - it was a land of plenty, the home of rich agricultural land that provided a good share of the Roman Empire’s food. Numidia was also home to the Numidian people, who were known for their horsemanship skills, bellicosity, and capriciousness when it came to their friends and allies. From the 3rd century BCE until the mid-1st century BCE, the Numidians ruled their land as independent kingdoms that dealt with their more powerful neighbors.
