Sinossi

Plato's "The Complete Works of Plato" serves as a comprehensive compilation of the philosophical insights and dialogues that have shaped Western thought. This extensive anthology features seminal texts such as "The Republic," "Phaedrus," and "Symposium," showcasing Plato's distinctive prose and dialectical method. His works traverse diverse themes, including ethics, politics, metaphysics, and epistemology, all couched within a Socratic questioning framework that provokes critical reflection. The literary style is marked by clarity, depth, and philosophical rigor, making it essential not only for scholars but also for general readers intrigued by the foundational issues of existence and knowledge. Plato, a pivotal figure in ancient philosophy, was profoundly influenced by his teacher Socrates and the tumultuous political landscape of Athens. His experiences during the Peloponnesian War and subsequent events led him to seek answers beyond the superficial understanding of ethics and governance. Through his writings, Plato sought to cultivate a more just society, articulating ideals that resonate through centuries, shaping perspectives not only in philosophy but in art and politics. For anyone yearning to engage with the foundational texts of Western philosophy, "The Complete Works of Plato" is indispensable. It invites readers to not just learn but to actively participate in a dialogue'Äîone that transcends time and space, challenging them to ponder fundamental questions about the nature of truth, justice, and the human condition.

    Not intended to replace but to complement, this is a summary book of Red-Handed by Peter Schweizer, the New York Times best selling author. In his quarter-century as an investigative journalist, Peter Schweizer claims that this is the most terrifying investigation he has ever dared to tackle. 
    It's hardly unexpected that the Chinese government wants to penetrate American organizations. The amount of American elites prepared to assist the Chinese regime in its ambition for global hegemony, on the other hand, is entirely new. 
    Presidential families, Silicon Valley geniuses, Wall Street high rollers, Ivy League colleges, and even professional sportsmen are all prepared to put personal gain ahead of national security. 
    Six-time New York Times bestselling investigator Peter Schweizer reveals his most shocking revelations to date in Red-Handed, showing the covert transactions made by affluent Americans to assist China expand its military, technical, and economic strength. Moreover, many of these elites secretly feel that China's dictatorship is preferable than American democracy. 
    Schweizer and his team of forensic investigators combed through a large archive of worldwide company documents and court files for almost a year in order to uncover the covert transactions that China's facilitators thought would never be revealed. And, as Schweizer's previous exposés such as Profiles in Corruption, Secret Empires, and Clinton Cash shown, bad actors exist on both sides of the political divide. 
    Red-Handed will uncover the power link between the Chinese government and the American elites who do its bidding. It will be exhaustively researched, crisply delivered, and scary.

    MacArthur Reconsidered - General...

    One of America's most controversial generals, Douglas MacArthur's rise through the US Army's ranks was meteoric. However, he did not lead large formations of men in combat until he assumed command of forces in the Philippines in 1941. When war commenced with the bombing of Pearl Harbor, MacArthur's performance on the battlefield was a failure: he underestimated the Japanese, and his poorly trained forces were outmaneuvered and outfought by a much smaller invading force. 
     
     
     
    In his subsequent role as America's shogun in Tokyo, MacArthur was again surprised by an enemy he underestimated. The Korean War yielded his greatest victory, at Inchon, but also his greatest defeat, along the Yalu River. Unwilling to accept anything but complete victory, he openly defied President Truman: MacArthur fatally undermined chances for an early peace and attempted to widen a conflict which threatened to become a third world war. Raging against his subsequent firing, he only truly faded away after he was publicly criticized by a panoply of America's greatest WWII generals. 
     
     
     
    Today, MacArthur still polarizes. Many biographies agree he was a great and patriotic leader marred by a few failures. James Ellman argues the opposite: MacArthur was a lackluster battlefield commander who suffered stunning defeats while undermining the command structure of our military.

    For readers who enjoy a dark and mysterious plot with their sexy books, Leo Sparx presents the first installment of this kinky m/m (m/m/m) series inspired by the Edgar Allan Poe stories, “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” and “The Cask of Amontillado.” 
    At the start of this queer erotic romance, a body is found chained to a wall in a world-famous gay resort. A heartbroken ex-theatre kid turned forensic scientist and an eccentric private detective form an unlikely team to investigate. Through hidden sex mazes, strange drag shows, and forbidden water features, the duo abandons the safety of the morgue, concealing their identities and losing their clothes on the way. 
    Pulled to the darkness beyond the main area of The Masquerade by his strong sexual appetite, the scientist runs into his ex-boyfriend—and things get really complicated. Meanwhile, he suspects his new strange but sexy investigator friend is hiding more than just his intentions. Rumors abound about a case of small bottles containing the best party favor ever made as a second body is discovered. 
    The duo ventures deeper to find out who or what is killing the men at The Masquerade. BDSM scenes gone wrong? Accidental overdose? Or is there a serial killer on the loose in the resort? Whatever is killing guests at the massive club, these men seeking the truth begin to suspect they’re next. 
    It’s Edgar Allan Poe with a queer kinky twist!
