Synopsis

History Spies explores the hidden world of espionage and its profound impact on global events. From ancient messengers to Cold War double agents, the book reveals how spies and covert operations have shaped the outcomes of wars and influenced international relations. Did you know that espionage involves not only gathering secrets but also understanding the psychology of spies and the historical context in which they operate? This book argues that espionage has often been a decisive, yet unseen, force throughout history.

 
The narrative begins by laying the groundwork, introducing key concepts of espionage like tradecraft and motivations. It then progresses through case studies, examining ancient espionage tactics, the complex spy networks of the World Wars (including codebreakers), and the intense intelligence battles of the Cold War. Drawing from declassified documents and firsthand accounts, the book connects espionage to broader fields like political science and psychology.

 
The book distinguishes itself by focusing on the human stories behind intelligence operations and their historical significance. It presents a comprehensive, yet accessible, account suitable for history enthusiasts and those interested in military history.

 
The book concludes by analyzing the lasting legacy of espionage and its continued relevance in the modern world, including contemporary cyber warfare.

    From rap artists wearing their symbol to multi-million dollar movies, the enigmatic and elusive secret society we know as the illuminti has held us captive in more ways than one. 
     
    We are told they originated in the 18th century, but the truth is much older than that. Who are they? What secrets do they hold? When and where did they originate? 
     
    They run governments, companies and religions. They have done so for a very long time. Their names have changed, their faces altered but their secrets remain the same. 
     
    We see glimpses of their power. We see the outcomes of their plots and schemes. We see revolutions and war. We succumb to their propaganda and manipulation again and again. Most have no idea that they are under the spell. 
     
    In the 18th century they emerged briefly into the spotlight to bring about world-wide cataclysmic change and they called themselves the Illuminati. 
     
    Quickly they spread and embedded themselves and their ideals within other secret societies. The French had a bloody revolution. America turned the tide against a royal regime. Russia, Spain and more, all fell to the zeal of a new world order. 
     
    In this book we will delve deep into the what these people believe in and enter their secret initiations and rituals. We will explain what those rituals mean and their origins. 
     
    We will see the spread of their influence with the assassins, Druze, Yezidis, Allumbrados, Ismailis, Templars, Triad and more. We will see how they created and fostered revolutions from France and America to China and Russia. And we will uncover their very ancient origins and how they were there at the very beginning of the major religions of the globe. 
     
    This is the story of the world's most powerful secret society - the illuminati.

    The Expanding Circle - Ethics...

    What is ethics? Where do moral standards come from? Are they based on emotions, reason, or some innate sense of right and wrong? For many scientists, the key lies entirely in biology—especially in Darwinian theories of evolution and self-preservation. But if evolution is a struggle for survival, why are we still capable of altruism? 
     
     
     
    In his classic study The Expanding Circle, Peter Singer argues that altruism began as a genetically based drive to protect one's kin and community members but has developed into a consciously chosen ethic with an expanding circle of moral concern. Drawing on philosophy and evolutionary psychology, he demonstrates that human ethics cannot be explained by biology alone. Rather, it is our capacity for reasoning that makes moral progress possible. In a new afterword, Singer takes stock of his argument in light of recent research on the evolution of morality.

    Things are getting complicated for the golden boy jock. 
    Up until last week, everything in life had come easily for the high school quarterback-- football, girls, friends. So what if he was a little rough on Kevin, the gay guy in his class? Isn’t every jock supposed to pick on “queers”? 
    Now Wade is learning his lesson the hard way. Ever since Kevin got his hands on that video, Wade has been at Kevin’s mercy... and at his service. Wade has had to do things that he swore he never would. But the worst part is that he’s starting to like it. Wade’s gotten a taste for something that he can’t get from this cheerleader girlfriend. 
    But that may be the least of the straight stud’s problems. Because Kevin’s not the only one who’s found leverage on Wade. 
    And if Wade thought his coach was hard on him before, he has no idea what’s coming.
