  The 2024 Israeli-Palestinian...

  The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most complex and enduring disputes in modern history. Rooted in competing nationalist aspirations, territorial claims, and historical grievances, the conflict has shaped the Middle East and drawn international attention for over a century. To understand the events of 2024, it is essential to examine the historical context that underpins this struggle. 
    
  The origins of the conflict can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, during the rise of nationalist movements among both Jews and Arabs. For Jews, Zionism emerged as a response to widespread anti-Semitism and sought the establishment of a homeland in Palestine, which was then part of the Ottoman Empire. For Arabs, the decline of Ottoman rule and growing European influence spurred their own nationalist aspirations, with Palestine viewed as integral to a future Arab state. 
    
  Following World War I, Britain gained control of Palestine under a League of Nations mandate, which complicated the situation. The 1917 Balfour Declaration expressed British support for a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine, fueling Jewish immigration to the region. However, this increased tensions with the Arab population, who viewed the declaration as a betrayal of their aspirations for self-determination. Clashes between Jewish and Arab communities became more frequent in the 1920s and 1930s, setting the stage for further conflict.

  The idea for "Black Africa: An Illustrated History" was born out of a passion for telling the stories that have often been overlooked or misunderstood. We believe that history is more than just a series of events; it is the collective memory of humanity conceived from the experiences, struggles, and triumphs of countless individuals and communities. In creating this book, we have drawn from various sources, including archaeological findings, oral traditions, and historical documents. Our goal is to present a balanced and nuanced view of African history that acknowledges both the achievements and challenges faced by African peoples throughout the centuries. We are deeply grateful to the many scholars, researchers, and storytellers whose work has contributed to this book. Their dedication to preserving and sharing Africa's history has been an invaluable resource, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to every one of them.

  Tyre & Carthage: The History of...

  Across the eastern Mediterranean there has been discovered a great number of objects whose appearance or materials are extraneous to local cultures, whether it was an Egyptian amulet in Greece, a Greek vase in Africa, or thousands of strange amulets in Gibraltar. The remains are evidence that a huge amount of goods was once moved from one land to another, systematically transported and traded across the Mediterranean by the ancient commercial network of the Phoenicians. Beginning in the 13th century BCE, and lasting for more than a millennium, this civilization dominated the most important body of water known to the ancients. With their formidable ships and skills in trading, they made a name for themselves by trading between Egypt, Greece, Rome, Carthage, Sardinia, Spain, and eventually all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, establishing themselves as the undisputed lords of the sea.  
  One of the most crucial cities in the system was hidden beneath the Greek, Roman, and Crusader ruins of Lebanon: the ancient city of Tyre. "Seated at entrance to the sea," according to the prophet Ezekiel, Tyre was constructed on a purportedly impenetrable island. Tyre was considered to be one of the oldest and wealthiest metropolises of the world, and indeed, the city can be directly associated with some of the most important stages in the history of mankind. 
  Although Carthage by far preferred to exert economic pressure and influence before resorting to direct military power (and even went so far as to rely primarily on mercenary armies paid with its vast wealth for much of its history, it nonetheless produced a number of outstanding generals, from the likes of Hanno Magnus to, of course, the great bogeyman of Roman nightmares himself: Hannibal. Carthage was able to go from a minor Phoenician settlement to one of the most powerful trading empires of antiquity.

  Asperger’s Syndrome, a form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is often misunderstood, yet it is a part of the broader spectrum of human neurodiversity. Individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome experience the world in unique ways, often exhibiting strengths in specific areas while facing challenges in social communication and sensory processing. The aim of this book is to provide a deeper understanding of Asperger’s Syndrome, exploring the characteristics, challenges, and strengths that come with it, while promoting acceptance and celebration of neurodiversity. 
    
  Neurodiversity is the concept that neurological differences, including those seen in Asperger’s Syndrome, are a natural variation of human diversity. Instead of viewing these differences as deficits or disorders, neurodiversity encourages us to appreciate the value these variations bring to society. It emphasizes that individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome and other neurodivergent conditions offer unique perspectives, skills, and talents that are often overlooked or underappreciated in traditional settings. 
    
  Asperger’s Syndrome, in particular, is characterized by challenges in social interactions, communication, and the presence of restricted, repetitive behaviors or interests. However, these traits do not define the person as a whole. Many individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome possess exceptional abilities in fields such as mathematics, technology, music, and art. They may also demonstrate a deep, intense focus on subjects they are passionate about, allowing them to become experts in their areas of interest.
