  Every person is wired for love differently—with different habits, needs, and reactions to conflict. The good news is that most people's minds work in predictable ways and respond well to security, attachment, and routines, making it possible to neurologically prime the brain for greater love and connection and fewer conflicts. This go-to guide will show you how. 
   
   
    
  Drawn from neuroscience, attachment theory, and emotion regulation, this highly anticipated second edition of Wired for Love presents cutting-edge research on how and why love lasts, and offers ten guiding principles that can improve any relationship. This fully revised edition also includes new guidance on how to manage disagreements, as well as new exercises to help you create a sense of safety and security, establish healthy conflict ground rules, and deal with the threat of the third—any outside source which threatens the harmony in your relationship, including in-laws, alcohol, children, and affairs. 
   
   
   
  By using simple gestures and words, you'll learn to put out emotional fires and help your partner feel appreciated and loved. You'll also discover how to move past a "warring brain" mentality and toward a more cooperative "loving brain." Most importantly, you'll gain a better understanding of the complex dynamics at work behind love and trust in intimate relationships.

  The Poverty of Philosophy

  Karl Marx

  • 0

  Marx started work on this book in January 1847, as can be judged from Engel's letter to Marx on January 15, 1847. By the beginning of April 1847, Marx's work was completed in the main and had gone to the press. On June 15, 1847, he wrote a short foreword. 
   
  Published in Paris and Brussels in 1847, the book was not republished in full during Marx's lifetime. Excerpts from section five of Chapter Two appeared in different years, mostly between 1872 - 1875 in papers such as La Emancipacion, Der Volksstaat, Social-Demokrat, and others. In 1880 Marx attempted to publish the Poverty of Philosophy in the French socialist newspaper L'Égalité, the organ of the French Workers' Party, but only the foreword and section one of Chapter One were published. 
   
  This translation is from the original 1847 French edition. It has been updated to also include the changes/corrections Marx made in the copy of the book he presented to N. Utina in 1876, as well as the corrections made by Frederick Engels in the second French edition and the German editions of 1885 and 1892. The first English edition of this work was published in 1900 by Twentieth Century Press.

  The Reconquista - Christian...

  The Reconquista, meaning "reconquest" in Spanish, refers to the centuries-long struggle by Christian kingdoms to reclaim the Iberian Peninsula from Muslim rule. Its origins trace back to the early 8th century, when the Islamic Umayyad forces crossed the Strait of Gibraltar in 711 and swiftly conquered much of what is now Spain and Portugal. The defeat of the Visigothic King Roderic at the Battle of Guadalete marked the beginning of Muslim dominance in Iberia. Within a few years, nearly the entire peninsula had fallen under Muslim control, becoming part of the vast Umayyad Caliphate. This rapid conquest, however, did not erase the memory of Christian rule, especially in the remote and mountainous regions of the north. 
  In these isolated territories, remnants of the Visigothic nobility and clergy began to organize resistance. The Kingdom of Asturias, founded by Pelayo, a nobleman of likely Visigothic heritage, emerged as the first bastion of Christian defiance. According to tradition, Pelayo’s victory at the Battle of Covadonga in 722 symbolized divine favor and the beginning of a sacred mission to restore Christian rule. Though modest in scope, this victory held immense symbolic weight and inspired future generations to continue the struggle. Over time, Asturias would expand and give rise to other Christian polities such as León and Castile, each taking up the cause of the Reconquista in their own right. 
  The idea of reconquest was not purely political; it was deeply tied to religious identity. The fall of the Visigothic kingdom was viewed by many Christians as a divine punishment for past sins, but it also fostered a sense of purpose and redemption. Reclaiming lost territories became not just a matter of sovereignty but a spiritual imperative. The Christian leaders and their subjects saw themselves as the defenders of the true faith, fighting to restore a sacred order.

Ronny checks some of those too.

  Power and Innocence - A Search...

  Rollo May

  • 0

  Stressing the positive, creative aspects of power and innocence, Rollo May offers a way of thinking about the problems of contemporary society. 
   
   
   
  Rollo May defines power as the ability to cause or prevent change; innocence, on the other hand, is the conscious divesting of one's power to make it seem a virtue, a form of powerlessness that Dr. May sees as particularly American in nature. From these basic concepts he suggests a new ethic that sees power as the basis for both human goodness and evil. 
   
   
   
  Dr. May discusses five levels of power's potential in each of us: the infant's power to be; self-affirmation, the ability to survive with self-esteem; self-assertion, which develops when self-affirmation is blocked; aggression, a reaction to thwarted assertion; and, finally, violence, when reason and persuasion are ineffective.
