  The Monsters by Robert Sheckley - Cordovir and Hum encounter a mysterious metallic object balancing on fire! As they debate its origins, a chilling realization sets in: what lurks inside could challenge everything they know about morality and truth.  
  Robert Sheckley was born on July 16, 1928, in Brooklyn, New York. Sheckley developed an avid interest in reading and storytelling, particularly drawn to the burgeoning genre of science fiction. This passion was nurtured by the pulp magazines of the era, which introduced him to the works of writers like H.G. Wells, Isaac Asimov, and Ray Bradbury. 
  Sheckley sold his first story, "Final Examination," to Imagination magazine in 1952. This marked the beginning of a prolific period in his career, during which he became a regular contributor to major science fiction magazines such as Galaxy Science Fiction and The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. His breakthrough came with the publication of his first novel, Immortality, Inc., in 1958. The book explored the concept of life extension and the moral and societal implications of immortality. It was well-received and cemented Sheckley's reputation as a writer who could blend humor with profound philosophical questions. 
  One of his most famous works, The Status Civilization (1960), is a satirical exploration of a dystopian society where criminal behavior is the norm. 
  In addition to his novels, Sheckley was a master of the short story. His short stories were not only entertaining but also thought-provoking, often challenging readers to reconsider their assumptions about society and human nature.

  This book is about fighting, learning and studying people. 
  It’s sports psychology applied. It's about personal growth through sports, based on my training in different striking and grappling disciplines for 30 years. 
  Some say you can learn more life lessons from martial arts than from documentaries and journalists’ reports.Why fight and what can I get from it? How much effort is it worth?Can I become better and fulfilled through fighting?How to learn combat efficiently? Which martial arts are currently martial and which have become just an art?How can my insecurities be related to my need to fight? How being an adrenaline junkie and my ego can harm me and others?Why are there so many weird guys in the gyms? Where are the true sensei?What can meditation techniques have to do with all this? 
  It’s for people looking in martial arts for something more than the primitive pounding, who feel that they should be about something other than “ripping the opponent's head off”. 
  This book should serve as a shortcut for not wasting your time and health on some people. Instead, I hope you will take care of sensible self-improvement, both physically and mentally – for yourself and for others. It's about mindfulness plus willpower. 
  I don’t like to fight. But I dislike aggressors and abusers even more. I’ve been doing it all these years cause I wanted to learn all dimensions of combat and self-defense. I haven’t become enlightened thanks to this, and I still can’t levitate. And I don’t think just fighting people makes you much wiser. It is about mindfulness plus willpower. It is up to us to educate ourselves.
