Sinossi

In 'The History of Persecution, from the Patriarchal Age, to the Reign of George II,' Samuel Chandler presents a sweeping analysis of the socio-political dynamics underlying religious persecution throughout history. Using a chronological framework, this erudite work examines the patterns of oppression against various religious groups, from ancient societies to the early modern period. Chandler's prose is characterized by its rigorous attention to detail and a commitment to presenting a balanced narrative, which invites readers to consider the ethical implications of religious intolerance across different epochs. Notably, his examination reveals the cyclical nature of persecution, wherein historical parallels resonate within contemporary issues of faith and freedom. Samuel Chandler, a prominent Dissenting minister and theologian of the 18th century, was deeply influenced by the religious climate of his time, particularly the struggles faced by nonconformists in England. His own experiences with persecution informed his scholarly pursuits, prompting him to explore broader themes of liberty and justice. Combined with his academic background and religious convictions, Chandler felt compelled to illuminate the often-ignored historical injustices that could inspire reflection and change among his contemporaries. Readers seeking a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the patterns of persecution across history will find Chandler's work invaluable. This book serves as both a historical record and a call to action against ongoing injustices, resonating powerfully in today's world. Scholars, students, and anyone interested in the evolution of religious freedom will appreciate Chandler'Äôs meticulous research and compelling narrative.

    A close look at failed US policies in the Middle East, offering a fresh perspective on how best to reorient goals in the region 
     
     
      
    In this book Alexandra Stark argues that the US approach to Yemen offers insights into the failures of American foreign policy throughout the Middle East. Stark makes the case that despite often being drawn into conflicts within Yemen, the United States has not achieved its policy goals because it has narrowly focused on counterterrorism and regional geopolitical competition rather than on the well-being of Yemenis themselves. She offers recommendations designed to reorient US policy in the Middle East in pursuit of US national security interests and to support the people of these countries in their efforts to make their own communities safe, secure, and prosperous.

    On a summer's day in 1858, in a garden behind Christ Church College in Oxford, Charles Dodgson, a lecturer in mathematics, photographed six-year-old Alice Liddell, the daughter of the college dean, with a Thomas Ottewill Registered Double Folding camera, recently purchased in London. 
     
    Simon Winchester deftly uses the resulting image--as unsettling as it is famous, and the subject of bottomless speculation--as the vehicle for a brief excursion behind the lens, a focal point on the origins of a classic work of English literature. Dodgson's love of photography framed his view of the world and was partly responsible for transforming a shy and half-deaf mathematician into one of the world's best-loved observers of childhood. Little wonder that there is more to ""Alice Liddell as the Beggar Maid"" than meets the eye. Using Dodgson's published writings, private diaries, and of course his photographic portraits, Winchester gently exposes the development of Lewis Carroll and the making of his Alice.

    Cognitive health is often overlooked until it begins to decline. In a world that is rapidly changing, we can easily forget how fragile our brains truly are. From the way we process information to our ability to recall memories, brain health affects every part of our daily lives. Yet, many of us unknowingly engage in habits that can damage our cognitive function over time. These seemingly harmless behaviors can lead to a range of mental health problems, including memory loss, mental fog, and even conditions like dementia. The good news is that by understanding how certain habits affect the brain, we can take steps to protect and improve our cognitive health. 
      
    The human brain is one of the most complex organs in the body. It is responsible for our thoughts, emotions, movements, and even the way we perceive the world around us. Despite its remarkable abilities, the brain is vulnerable to both internal and external factors that can have lasting consequences on its function. The habits we form daily play a crucial role in determining how well our brain performs. Even if we don’t feel immediate effects, bad habits can accumulate over time, leading to irreversible damage. 
      
    In this book, we explore twelve common habits that can harm cognitive health. These behaviors might seem harmless or even routine, but their impact on the brain can be far-reaching. From lack of sleep and chronic stress to poor dietary choices and sedentary living, many of these habits are all too familiar. However, understanding how these habits affect the brain is the first step in taking control of our mental health. Once we recognize the problem, we can implement strategies to protect our brain from further harm.

    In Israel and the Cyber Threat, Charles D. ("Chuck") Freilich, Matthew S. Cohen, and Gabi Siboni provide a detailed and comprehensive study of Israel's cyber strategy, tracing it from its origins to the present. They analyze Israel's highly advanced civil and military cyber capabilities and organizational structures to offer insights into what other countries can learn from Israel's experience. To achieve this, they explore how and why Israel has been able to build a remarkable cyber ecosystem and turn itself, despite its small size, into a global cyber power. The book further examines the major cyber threats facing Israel, including the most in-depth look at Iranian cyber policies and attacks; Israel's defensive and offensive capabilities and the primary attacks it has conducted; capacity building; international cooperation; and the impact of Israel's strategic culture on its cyber prowess. By placing Israel's actions in the realm of international relations theory, the book sheds light on many of the major questions in the field regarding cyber policies. 
     
     
     
    The most authoritative work to date on Israeli cyber strategy, this book provides a comprehensive look at the major actions Israel has taken in cyberspace. It also places them in the broader context of global cyber developments to help listeners understand state behavior in cyberspace.
