  Social Theory - Key Ideas and...

  Social theory provides a framework for understanding how societies function, how individuals interact, and how social structures shape human behavior. It encompasses a wide range of perspectives that seek to explain social order, change, and the relationships between individuals and institutions. By analyzing patterns in human behavior, power dynamics, and cultural influences, social theory helps us interpret the complexities of the modern world. Sociologists use these theories to examine issues such as inequality, globalization, identity, and technological change, offering insights that inform public policy, activism, and everyday life. 
  The origins of social theory can be traced back to early philosophical inquiries about society, morality, and governance. Thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Confucius considered questions about justice, social order, and the ideal state. However, modern social theory emerged during the 19th and early 20th centuries in response to major social transformations such as industrialization, urbanization, and political revolutions. Pioneering sociologists, including Karl Marx, Emile Durkheim, and Max Weber, developed foundational theories to explain the impact of these changes on social life. Their work laid the groundwork for various theoretical traditions that continue to shape sociological inquiry today. 
  Social theories can be broadly categorized into macro and micro perspectives. Macro-level theories, such as structural functionalism and conflict theory, focus on large-scale social structures and institutions. These perspectives analyze how societies maintain stability, how power is distributed, and how systemic inequalities emerge. Micro-level theories, such as symbolic interactionism, examine individual interactions and the meanings people attach to their experiences. These approaches emphasize the role of language, symbols, and everyday social interactions in shaping identity and behavior.

  The Power of Babies - On the...

  These stories tell us how babies, from birth, have this skill to test by themselves the quality of the connections of the human network that surrounds them and to choose their first emotional attachments according to the quality of the signals received in return—without worrying about their filiation or their biological reality. A shock! They reveal to us through this unheard-of skill what is human in a person and how the little person becomes human. A new and modern vision of the human baby. These babies show us the intense efforts they make, from the moment they are born, to relate and to be kind, to make themselves light in the arms that carry them, to exist in the brains they cram into to ensure their safety and to “download” the knowledge of the world they need to survive. Babies very actively adapt to their new life as earthlings through the “Wi-Fi connections” they make in the first few minutes of their lives.
  The author concludes his book with a call to consider the reality of the psychic suffering of abused babies. Twenty-five years ago, the medical world finally discovered that babies could feel physical pain, which has since been recognized and treated. Before that, they were operated on without any anesthesia. From today's perspective, this is barbaric. It is urgent to make the same intellectual revolution for the psychological pain and emotional distress of the infant, which is detectable and curable if we know how to spot the signs from birth. The psychological future of thousands of babies every year depends on it. Let's save human babies!

  The Olympic Class ships were intended to be the greatest liners to ever sail the oceans, but the Britannic sank only four years after her sister ship the Titanic. While the wreck of the Titanic is two miles below the surface and rapidly deteriorating, the Britannic is much more accessible (only 400 ft down) and remains largely intact. One of the largest passenger ships ever to have sunk, her wreck presents a unique opportunity to explore the interior of the Olympic Class liners, and examine areas which on the Titanic simply no longer exist. 
   
   
   
  Simon Mills bought the wreck of the Britannic in 1996 and has spent more time exploring it than anyone else. Inside the Britannic is the sum of decades of work covering every inch of the shipwreck as he searches for answers to century-old questions, and discovers new mysteries to solve. Simon takes a forensic approach but this book is more than just the autopsy report of a ship. 
   
   
   
  The Britannic may have been lost over a century ago, but Simon Mills's fascinating new book gives everyone unparalleled access to rediscover her.

  The Civil Wars is a firsthand account of the pivotal conflict between Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great, written by Caesar himself. Covering the events leading to the war, his strategic campaigns in Italy, Spain, and Greece, and culminating in Pompey’s defeat at Pharsalus, the narrative showcases Caesar’s military genius, political resolve, and justification for seizing power. Written in a clear, detached tone, the work presents Caesar’s perspective as a commander fighting for legitimacy against a corrupt Senate. Though unfinished—ending before his ultimate victory—it remains a crucial historical document offering insight into Roman politics, loyalty, and the fall of the Republic. A foundational text of military and political history.
