  Of the 6,600 paratroopers of the 101st 'Screaming Eagles' Airborne Division who parachuted into France in the early hours of 6 June 1944—D-Day—some 3,500 were listed as missing by midnight that same night. Yet it was only the beginning of their 'rendezvous with destiny.' 
   
   
   
  American Eagles is the remarkable true story of the United States 101st Airborne Division. From their rigorous training in 'Old Jolly' (England) to their first operational jump in Normandy, Charles Whiting tells the story of this 'Band of Brothers', who fought, suffered, and died in the eleven-month campaign that followed. From Normandy and Holland through to the siege of Bastogne and their final triumphant capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest in the Bavarian Alps, we gain a picture of a brave elite division which kept on getting the tough assignments. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on eyewitness accounts, painstaking research, and his own youthful experiences when his regiment was under the command of 101st Airborne in Holland, Whiting delivers a powerful account of each of the 101st's major operations during the European campaign of 1944/45. He brings to life the full horrors of war while shining a spotlight on the courage and determination of the 'Screaming Eagles' and their role in the destruction of the Nazi regime in World War Two.

  Parmenides - The Philosopher on...

  Parmenides of Elea stands as one of the most pivotal figures in the history of Western philosophy. His contributions, particularly in metaphysics and epistemology, challenged the prevailing philosophical ideas of his time and laid the groundwork for later philosophical inquiries. Born in the late sixth or early fifth century BCE, Parmenides is best known for his poem On Nature, in which he articulates a radical vision of reality that denies change, multiplicity, and the reliability of sensory perception. His assertion that “what is, is” and “what is not, is not” forms the core of his philosophical system, establishing the principle that true being must be eternal, unchanging, and indivisible. 
  Prior to Parmenides, early Greek thinkers, particularly the Presocratics like Heraclitus and the Milesian philosophers, sought to explain the nature of reality through empirical observation and the identification of a fundamental substance or element underlying all things. Heraclitus, for example, famously posited that change and flux were the fundamental aspects of existence, encapsulated in the notion that “everything flows.” Parmenides, however, forcefully rejected this view, arguing that change and plurality were mere illusions. He insisted that the senses deceive us, leading to a mistaken belief in a world of becoming rather than a singular, unchanging being. His philosophical method, based on reason rather than empirical observation, introduced a new way of thinking that would profoundly influence later philosophical traditions. 
  The significance of Parmenides lies not only in the content of his arguments but also in the impact he had on subsequent thinkers. Plato, for instance, engaged extensively with Parmenidean thought, particularly in dialogues such as the Parmenides and Sophist, where he sought to reconcile the Eleatic notion of an unchanging reality with the apparent diversity of the world.
