  "The Problems of Philosophy" is a book written by Bertrand Russell and first published in 1912. The book is a concise introduction to some of the central problems in philosophy, and it aims to explain them in an accessible way to a general audience. 
  Russell begins by outlining the distinction between appearance and reality, arguing that things are not always as they seem. He then moves on to discuss the nature of knowledge and truth, and explores the question of how we can be sure that our beliefs are justified. 
  Another important topic in the book is the nature of existence, and Russell asks whether the external world is real or simply a construct of our minds. He also discusses the relationship between mind and body, and the problem of free will. 
  Russell's writing is clear and straightforward, and he uses examples and analogies to help the reader understand complex philosophical concepts. While the book is not intended to be a comprehensive survey of all philosophical problems, it provides an excellent introduction to some of the most important issues in the field, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in philosophy.

  History of Marathas EP11 - Chaos...

  Sambhaji's death was a big blow to the Marathas. He was the rightful heir and a daredevil; someone who could have challenged Aurangzeb had he not been given up by his own family members.
  The Marathas were not to give up so easily. The few years after Sambhaji's death were ruinous and confusing. Sambhaji's younger brother Rajaram, who was nineteen, and his mother Tarabai stayed at the Raigad fort. Yesaji Kank, a veteran since Shivaji's time, did not waste time to declare Rajaram as the king within a week of Sambaji's capture. This was a clear message to the Mughals that the Maratha monarchy was alive and kicking and that the Marathas were too.
  Aurangzeb was not going to sit quietly. He sent Itikad Khan (later called Zulfikar Khan) to Raigad to capture Rajaram and his mother.

  The Iranian Hostage Crisis - A...

  The Iran Hostage Crisis did not emerge in isolation but was the culmination of a series of events that built tension between the United States and Iran over the course of several years. At the heart of this turmoil was the downfall of the Pahlavi monarchy and the rise of the Islamic Republic, a shift that drastically altered Iran's relationship with the West. The turning point came in 1979 when the Iranian Revolution ousted the U.S.-backed Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, and brought Ayatollah Khomeini to power. While the revolution was a victory for many Iranians seeking an end to decades of autocratic rule and foreign influence, it created an atmosphere of political uncertainty, particularly regarding U.S.-Iranian relations. 
  The United States had long supported the Shah, who was seen as a crucial ally in the Middle East during the Cold War. In return, the Shah implemented policies that favored American economic and military interests, while also suppressing dissent within Iran. However, his reign became increasingly unpopular among Iranians, particularly the religious clerics and the working class, who viewed his modernization policies as an imposition of Western culture and values. By 1978, protests and demonstrations had erupted across Iran, eventually leading to the Shah’s exile in January 1979. 
  In the wake of the Shah’s departure, Iran underwent a dramatic transformation. The revolutionary movement, initially diverse in its goals, quickly coalesced under Khomeini’s leadership. Khomeini’s vision of an Islamic Republic, where political power was rooted in Shi’a religious authority, resonated with a wide segment of the population. His rhetoric condemned not only the Shah’s regime but also U.S. imperialism, which was seen as a driving force behind Iran’s oppressive system. Khomeini’s calls for a return to Islamic principles and the removal of foreign influence became central tenets of the revolution.

  300 per hour - The price for my...

  Mathilde Davril

  "I am Mathilde, alias Mathilda. I am 37 years old and I prostitute myself to be a free woman. I have been an executive assistant, a sales manager in media, a communication manager for an employers' confederation and a company director in business aviation. But I was a precarious woman, being used for a low price, like a great majority of women in France. In parallel to my work activities, I became an escort to get out of my social condition and not be a free and disposable object anymore. I have been leading this double life for 10 years in Lyon; and today men, but also women, respect me for what I am. I like this life and I embrace it fully."
  Like 5% to 10% prostitutes in France (and certainly many more), Mathilde engages in this profession freely and without constraint, to no longer be the prey of males and a patriarchal society. Free, authentic and without pretense, she takes the reader on a journey of discovery of a profession that fascinates and that no one talks about in this way. With a provocative but always human tone, she reveals with strength and fragility her non-conformist universe and her atypical personality. From her family to her friends, from her lovers to her clients, from her jobs to her first trick, Mathilde shares her way of life openly because her reality does not need to be hidden.
