Sinopse

In 'History of Colonial Virginia,' Thomas J. Wertenbaker meticulously chronicles the formative years of Virginia's development from its founding to the onset of the American Revolution. Written in a fluid narrative style that combines vivid descriptions with scholarly analysis, Wertenbaker's work delves into the complex socio-political dynamics, economic shifts, and cultural interactions characteristic of colonial life. The three-volume edition is rich in primary sources, meticulously compiled to provide readers with an immersive understanding of the era's intricacies, presenting Virginia not merely as a backdrop but as a key player in the broader tapestry of American history. Wertenbaker, a prominent historian and educator from the early 20th century, draws from his extensive academic training and a keen interest in early American history. His background, coupled with a profound understanding of the colonial era's political structures, undoubtedly influenced his detailed treament of Virginia's role within the context of European imperial ambitions, Indigenous interactions, and the burgeoning American identity. Wertenbaker's scholarship remains an essential touchstone for anyone seeking to comprehend the complexities of Virginia's past. For both scholars and casual readers, 'History of Colonial Virginia' serves as an indispensable resource that invites you to traverse the layered history of one of America's first colonies. Wertenbaker's expansive yet coherent examination not only enriches our understanding of Virginia's historical significance but also enhances our comprehension of the foundational narratives that shaped the United States.

  • Practical Applications of Taoism - Using Taoism to Make Actual Changes in Your Life - cover

    Practical Applications of Taoism...

    SULI Daniel Johnson

    I decided to write this book after having written several books on the applications of Taoism in different areas. The applications of Taoism are broad. For everything that has been written, it remains poorly understood. There are several reasons for this. I have practiced Taoism for most of my life. I studied under a Taoist Master and spent many years in a temple. I have read a great deal on the subject. I have discovered that most of what is written is unclear and, in many cases, misleading. Having practiced Taoism for most of my life, I live the Tao, and I have helped others to live it. The reason why it's so difficult to describe Tao because people are attempting to do so through the lens of cognitive understanding and science. The Taoist perspective is completely different, so it does not lend itself well to be described through science or logic. In attempting to cast Taoism in terms of logic or science, most of what makes it unique and effective is lost.. To understand the Tao, you need to live it. 
    I teach aspects of this system to individuals and businesses. On the surface, the system is simple and fundamental. For this reason, many people are tempted to pass it off as being nothing more than insubstantial fluff. However, Taoism is much more than this. I will attempt in this book to explain what Taoism is. I will explain its different perspectives, how to experience it, and how to use it as a functional tool. Within this book and the second one, I will also teach many skills and techniques to develop your Taoist insight. This will help you operate more effectively within the world around you. 
    I will teach you how to use it to make pragmatic changes in your life. It can also be applied to improving business skills and other applications within your jobs or careers. Its applications can span creativity to the organization.

    The Nature of the Beast

    Does your dog get sad when you leave for the day? Does your cat purr because she loves you? Do bears attack when they’re angry? You can’t very well ask them.  
     
    In fact, scientists haven’t been able to reach a consensus on whether animals even have emotions like humans do, let alone how to study them. Yet studies of animal emotion are critical for understanding human emotion and mental illness. 
     
    In The Nature of the Beast, pioneering neuroscientist David J. Anderson describes a new approach to solving this problem. He and his colleagues have figured out how to study the brain activity of animals as they navigate real-life scenarios, like  
    fleeing a predator or competing for a mate. His research has revolutionized what we know about animal fear and aggression. Here, he explains what studying emotions and related internal brain states in animals can teach us about human  
    behavior, offering new insights into why isolation makes us more aggressive, how sex and violence connect, and whether there’s a link between aggression and mental illness. 
     
    Full of fascinating stories, The Nature of the Beast reconceptualizes how the brain regulates emotions—and explains why we have them at all.

    This book is my second on stranger than science stories and facts. The idea is from the book “Stranger Than Science” by Frank Edwards that I read when I was a kid. It made a great impression on me since it caused me to be curious about all of the unknown facts in the world.In this Volume Two I’ve gone through my 120 plus books again to find interesting subjects I’ve either experienced or researched which were not discussed in the first book.My goal is to open the eyes of the reader to facts and stories about the unknown they may not know about. Hopefully this will lead you to become more open minded and think seriously about new things which may not have been part of your life before.Here you will read stories about the Paranormal, Spiritual Enlightenment, Legendary animals like Dragons, giant snakes, living dinosaurs, ball lightning, alien anti-gravity technology, improving longevity, and much more.I promise you will not be bored with the materials we cover here.After reading this book I hope you can see that our world is truly mysterious and the more we know, the more questions we have, and the more there is to know.
