Sinossi

Byzantine Sieges explores the pivotal role of sieges in shaping the Byzantine Empire's relationship with the Middle East. It examines how these prolonged military encounters not only determined territorial control but also spurred cultural exchange and economic shifts. The book dives into specific sieges, such as those of Constantinople, to reveal the military strategies and technologies employed by both the Byzantines and their adversaries like the Arab Caliphates and Persian Empire. 

 
One intriguing aspect is the examination of how sieges affected civilian populations and strained resources, highlighting the broader societal impact of these military campaigns. The book uniquely combines detailed military analysis with insights into the social, economic, and cultural consequences of siege warfare, setting it apart from purely military accounts. By drawing on primary sources like Byzantine chronicles and archaeological findings, Byzantine Sieges provides a nuanced interpretation of these historical events.

 
The book begins by establishing the strategic context of the Byzantine Middle East and the evolution of siege warfare, then progresses to analyzing specific sieges and concludes with an assessment of their long-term ramifications on conflict, cultural interactions, and regional geopolitics.

    Lament for a Nation - The Defeat...

    George Grant, Andrew Potter

    Canadians have relatively few binding national myths, but one of the most pervasive and enduring is the conviction that the country is doomed. In 1965 George Grant passionately defended Canadian identity by asking fundamental questions about the meaning and future of Canada’s political existence. In Lament for a Nation he argued that Canada – immense and underpopulated, defined in part by the border, history, and culture it shares with the United States, and torn by conflicting loyalties to Britain, Quebec, and America – had ceased to exist as a sovereign state. Lament for a Nation became the seminal work in Canadian political thought and Grant became known as the father of Canadian nationalism.
    		 
    This edition includes a major introduction by Andrew Potter that explores Grant’s arguments in the context of changes in ethnic diversity, free trade, globalization, post-modernism, and 9/11. Potter discusses the shifting uses of the terms “liberal” and “conservative” and closes with a look at the current state of Canadian nationalism.

    A timely look at how the Electoral College has changed US history and why it endures—told through the lenses of specific people who both influenced the process and were impacted by the results. 
     
     
     
    "Over the years, no feature of the Constitution has attracted more criticism than that strange creature called the Electoral College. Thomas E. Weaver has made that history into a story with an intriguing cast of characters, some familiar, several new to me. If you want to know why it is so hard to do away with this long-standing anachronism, Weaver's story will help you understand." —JOSEPH J. ELLIS, Professor Emeritus of History, Mount Holyoke College, author of Pulitzer Prize–winning Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation 
     
     
     
    "Those who think that throwing stones at political institutions is the same as reasoned debate should take some lessons from this carefully researched book. With a cast of colorful characters in tow, Weaver examines the long-standing controversies surrounding the EC and sets out numerous proposals for reform, which range from outright abolition to removing the "plus two" clause. Weaver brings a wealth of historical research to the task, writing with authority and clarity." —Kirkus

    Kahlil Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu.
    Sand and Foam is a book of aphorisms, poems, and parables by the author of "The Prophet" - a philosopher at his window commenting on the scene passing below.
    In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In modern Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero.
