  The Insanity of the Artist -...

  Salvador Dalí sublimated his madness without ever falling into it. Antonin Artaud, confronted with the traumas of childhood, oscillated all his life between an overflowing creation and accesses of madness. Niki de Saint Phalle, thanks to artistic expression, cured herself of a deep depression linked to the trauma of incest. Vincent van Gogh, in order to reach the summit of his art, put himself in danger to the point of committing suicide. Camille Claudel exhausted herself in her creation and ended up being interned and never creating again.
  Based on the life and work of a dozen artists of genius, Thierry Delcourt tries to understand these artists’ transition from the summits of creation and the artistic abyss. Why do some people fall into madness while others go through life without a hitch? Why do some sick people find healing through creation? Why do many artists have an obsessive need to create relentlessly?
  To these fascinating questions, this book offers striking answers about creation on the brink of the abyss.

  Stress is a problem for many people. This practical book was written by a GP who developed her approach for dealing with stress to help her patients and felt it could help a wider audience. It was first available in 2014 but the latest version was released in 2024. The book is designed to encourage you (the reader) to reflect on what is causing stress in your life, how this stress is affecting you and on what you can change in your situation, and in yourself, to help you make life feel less stressful. There is plenty of space for you to jot down your thoughts. 
  The introduction includes a definition of the word 'stress', and is followed by a description of the Acute Stress Reaction. You are then asked to consider whether there are aspects of your life that you can change and if so, to focus your energy on bringing about these changes. From then on, the book focuses on how stress can affect you: your mind, your body and your spirit. You may recognise some of the thoughts, physical symptoms and feelings described. There is also a section on unhealthy coping behaviours, prompting personal reflection. It goes on to give practical advice to help life become less stressful for you. This advice focuses on helping you to control your mind and any anxious thoughts, and also on ways to look after your body and to restore your spirit. 
  It is hoped that through the process of reading this book, and reflecting as you go, you will gain a greater understanding of yourself and the way you respond to stressful situations and events. The book provides a handy reference tool which you can personalise by annotation and also by highlighting areas which are particularly useful. Through this process you will become more empowered to make changes which will hopefully make your life more manageable and enjoyable.

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  This is the tale of how the illuminati invaded and took control of the United States of America. This is the real history of America as you've never seen before. 
   
  Using new evidence we will reveal how this massive secret origanization infiltrated the religious groups, political parties, Universities and corporations. How they placed their own people in positions of power and authority. How they manipulated the minds of the masses and hid it all from view. 
   
  This group embraces what is known as the esoteric, the so-called spiritual truth hidden from the rest of us. Over a vast period of time, this secretive organization turned slowly to the dark side of these esoteric truths and utilized them for power and control. 
   
  They take their orders from the International Secret Council of Nine. They are collectively called the Confederation of Initiates. They are under the strict control of their masters and to oppose them means punishment worse than death. It has been this way for thousands of years and they are working slowly but surely towards their ultimate goal of a one world government with the Nine in control. 
   
  We reveal their plans and schemes. We show how the so-called land of the free is not free at all. How it is under the yoke of a very large, very powerful and very secret organization. This is the illuminati of America.

  How to Fight a War

  An indispensable guide to understanding modern warfare, especially the decisions made by politicians and generals?both good and bad. 
   
  Has any war in history gone according to plan? Monarchs, dictators and elected leaders alike have a dismal record on military decision-making, from over-ambitious goals to disregarding intelligence, terrain, or enemy capabilities. This not only wastes the lives of civilians, the enemy and one’s own soldiers, but also fails to achieve geopolitical objectives, and usually lays the seeds for more wars down the line. 
   
  Conflict scholar and former soldier Mike Martin takes the reader through the hard, elegant logic to fighting a conclusive interstate war that solves geopolitical problems, and reduces future conflict. In cool and precise prose, he outlines how to orchestrate military forces, from infantry to information, and from strategy to tactics. 
   
  How to Fight a War explains the unavoidable, yet seemingly elusive, art of using violence to force your enemies to do what you want. It should be read by everyone seeking to understand today’s wars, as well as those wishing to lead us through the coming decades of conflict.
