  Becoming Alpha: Tuning the First Signal 
  A groundbreaking guide to inner power, presence, and the rhythm that shapes reality. 
    
  What if the real alpha isn't the loudest in the room — but the most in tune? 
    
  In this powerful blend of science, ancient wisdom, and modern insight, Nader Hantour redefines what it means to be "alpha." Forget dominance and ego. Becoming Alpha reveals a deeper truth: the original alpha is a frequency — a calm, clear, creative state of mind and body that unlocks presence, clarity, and quiet leadership. 
    
  Drawing from neuroscience, mythology, meditation, and altered states, this book offers a fresh path to power — not through control, but through coherence. 
    
  Inside, you'll discover: 
    
  • The truth about alpha brainwaves — and how to access them 
  • How to tune your nervous system for clarity, flow, and focus 
  • Ancient practices that align your mind, body, and energy 
  • Why real leadership begins in silence, not struggle 
  • A practical toolkit to live from the alpha state — every day 
    
  Whether you're an entrepreneur, artist, seeker, or leader in the making, this book will help you stop performing and start tuning. 
    
  Becoming Alpha isn't about changing who you are. It's about remembering the rhythm you were born with.

  Was Muhammad Crazy?

  Through a careful psychological re-reading of the Qur'an and other biographical sources about Muhammad, the author identifies the pathological symptoms of the prophet of Islam. His diagnosis is unambiguous: the man suffered from a querulous paranoia with dissociative identity disorder. 
  The author shows that Mohammed identified himself with previous prophets (Jesus and Moses in particular), whom he plagiarized. Adapting their words and deeds to the culture of the Arab world, he imposed these new doctrines on his people primarily through direct aggression and political manipulation. Yet, Islam was phenomenally successful during his lifetime and over the centuries. 
  At this point, another question arises: How did Muhammad manage to convince the masses? The author then analyzes the personality of the submissive people and the success of this religion through the centuries. The author also deconstructs all the scientific and philosophical presuppositions behind the Muslim religion (cosmology, biology, psychology, etc.). Muhammad's moral and political discourse is confronted with its own contradictions.

  No one present at the Battle of Cape Lopez off the coast of West Africa in 1722 could have known that they were on the edge of history. This obscure yet fierce naval battle would have a monumental impact on British colonies and the future of slavery in America. 
   
   
   
  Pirates of the Slave Trade follows three figures whose fates would violently converge: John Conny, a charismatic leader of the Akan people who made lucrative deals with pirates and smugglers while fending off British and Dutch slavers; the infamous pirate Black Bart, who worked his way from an anonymous navigator to one of the British Empire's most notorious enemies in the region; and naval captain Chaloner Ogle, tasked by the Crown with hunting down and killing Black Bart at all costs. At the Battle of Cape Lopez, these three men and the massive historical forces at their backs would finally find each other—and the world would be transformed forever. 
   
   
   
  In this landmark narrative history, historian Angela Sutton outlines the complex network of trade routes spanning the Atlantic Ocean trafficked by agents of empire, private merchants, and brutal pirates alike. Drawing from a wide range of primary historical sources, Sutton offers a new perspective on how a single battle played a pivotal role in reshaping the trade of enslaved people in ways that affect America to this day.

  The Present Professor -...

  In a world where stress is unavoidable—where political turmoil, pandemic fallout, and personal challenges touch everyone—this book offers guidance for cutting through the emotional static that can hold teachers back. A specialist in pedagogical strategies with extensive classroom experience, Elizabeth A. Norell explains how an educator's presence, or authenticity, can be critical to creating transformational spaces for students. And presence, she argues, means uncovering and understanding one's own internal struggles and buried insecurities—stresses often left unconfronted in an academic culture that values knowing over feeling. Presenting the research on how and why such inner work unlocks transformational learning, The Present Professor equips educators with the tools for crafting a more authentic presence in their teaching work. 
   
   
   
  At a time of crisis in higher education, as teachers struggle to find new ways to relate to, think about, and instruct students, this book holds a key. Implementing more inclusive pedagogies, Norell suggests, requires sorting out our own identities. In short, if we want to create spaces where students have the confidence, comfort, and psychological safety to learn and grow, we have to create spaces where we do, too. The Present Professor is dedicated to that proposition, and to helping educators build that transformational space.
