  Thomas Paine was born in Great Britain; he came to America at the age of 37 for the first time. He is rightly considered to be the Anglo-American writer, philosopher, publicist, as well as "American godfather" for supporting separatist spirits and inspiring Americans to fight for their independence (at that very moment, the break between America and England was imminent). He described his thoughts in a wonderful tract Common Sense, that according to G. Washington, revolutionized the minds. Later, Thomas Paine's arguments were reflected in The Independence Declaration, written by Jefferson.

  [How to Recognize Toxic Stress] delves deep into the invisible architecture of modern anxiety, illuminating the subtle ways our bodies and minds carry the weight of constant vigilance. With prose that flows like a gentle stream of consciousness, this groundbreaking exploration maps the delicate intersections between our physical responses and emotional landscapes. Through intimate observations of how stress settles into our shoulders on ordinary Tuesday mornings and nests in the spaces between breaths, the book reveals the profound wisdom of our bodies' ancient language. Drawing on cutting-edge research in neuroscience and psychology, it examines how our nervous systems have become unwitting hosts to a perpetual state of alertness, transforming what should be temporary visitors into permanent residents in our lives. The narrative weaves together personal insights with scientific understanding, creating a tapestry that helps readers recognize their own patterns of toxic stress while offering a compassionate framework for understanding these responses not as personal failings, but as natural adaptations to an increasingly demanding world.

  In April 1865, Richmond fell to the Union army and Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to his Northern counterpart, Ulysses S. Grant, at the Appomattox Court House. But the Civil War was far from over. 
   
   
   
  Determined to keep Confederate dreams of secession alive, President Jefferson Davis and his cabinet fled the burning capital city. With Union troops in pursuit, the fugitives rallied loyalists across the South and made plans to escape to Cuba. In the aftermath of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination, a $100,000 bounty was placed on Davis's head. Finally captured in Irwinville, Georgia, the former US senator and secretary of war became a prisoner of the American government. The harsh treatment he received would inflame tensions between North and South for years to come. 
   
   
   
  Meticulously researched and brilliantly told, The Long Surrender brings these dramatic events to vivid, unforgettable life and paints a fascinating portrait of Davis, one of history's most enigmatic figures. By shining a light on this forgotten chapter of the Civil War, bestselling author Burke Davis examines the lasting impact of America's bloodiest conflict on the national character.

  White Shark - A Biography of the...

  An adult great white is a big shark – really big. It has been responsible for more shark bites and human deaths than any other species, according to the International Shark Attack File. This is probably because it sees us as aberrant marine mammals flailing about in the water and certainly worth an exploratory bite – but a gentle mouthing from a two-tonne white shark, its jaws filled with row upon row of razor-sharp teeth, could result in a severe mauling for any victim unlucky enough to have attracted its attention.
  Though its danger was well known to ancient mariners, it was not until the mid-1970s that it came to occupy its current place in the popular imagination, when Jaws was unleashed on an unsuspecting public. The great white shark's reputation hit rock bottom in the wake of the Spielberg classic. But during the fifty years since the film's first release, public interest in the species has sparked a renaissance in research, producing remarkable new insights into the life of this extraordinary animal.
  Telling the story of the great white shark from the perspectives of history, psychology and biology, White Shark is nothing less than the biography of the world's most fascinating fish.
