Sinopse

Part of the Hero Classics series 
Utopia is a distant island where the inhabitants are thriving and justice and reason prevail, in contrast to the realities of sixteenth-century Europe, where greed, superstition and unenlightened tradition reign. Using the framework of a traveller’s account to a fictional land, Thomas More created an ingenious treatise which envisioned a more humanist approach to laws and social structures, and coined the now common term “utopia”.

    Deborah is a British First World War tank that rose from the grave after taking part in one of the most momentous battles in history. In November 1917, she played a leading role in the first successful massed tank attack at Cambrai. Eighty years later, in a remarkable feat of archaeology, the tank's buried remains were rediscovered and excavated, and are now preserved as a memorial to the battle and to the men who fought in it. John Taylor's book tells the tale of the tank and her crew and tracks down their descendants to uncover a human story every bit as compelling as the military one.

    "Democracy: The Political Tale" pulls readers into an exciting exploration of government complexities, directed by the author's own intimate experiences with democracy and tyranny. Leaning upon real-life events, the account digs deep into the profound effects of being forced out from a dictatorship nation and thereafter growing up in a democracy. The striking distinction between these structures influences the author's thorough study of representative democracy. 
    This book points out the issues in the way democratic systems currently work. It talks about how these systems struggle to handle the ever-changing, intricate demands of our present-day world. Elected officials becoming disconnected and a small group of people rule, despite a lack of public support, are clearly detailed—this reveals weakness in the system. The book uses smart examples to show times when agreement on vital matters couldn't be reached. It also delves into the trials presented by today's growth and society. All these details help champion the need for enhancements to our current system. 
    When the writer doubts the power of our representative democracy, a strong urge comes for decisions to include more folks and be more clear. The final parts of the book reveal personal stories, underlining the vital part democracy plays, but also being honest about its flaws. Calling for big fixes that can truly help society, "Democracy: The Political Saga" is a strong affirmation of the continuous search for a way to rule that fits well with today's complex world.

    The New England landscape has long been battered by some of the most intense weather in the United States. The region breeds one of the highest concentrations of meteorologists in the country for a reason. One can experience just about anything except a dust storm. Snowstorms, floods, droughts, heat waves, arctic blasts, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, and other atmospheric oddities come and go with the changing seasons. Rare is the boring year of weather. 
     
     
     
    Knowing the past is a critical part of understanding and forecasting the weather. Meteorologist Eric Fisher takes an in depth look at some of the most intense weather events in New England's history. The stories in this book not only describe the loss and the damage caused by the storms, but also how nearly all of them in left such an impression that they immediately led to progress where new warnings systems were implemented, government agencies formed, and technology accelerated in response to the devastation these events left behind.

    The Conquest of Bread  is an 1892 book by the Russian anarcho-communist Peter Kropotkin.
    Peter Kropotkin was born a Russian prince whose father owned 1,200 serfs. But he became  a Russian activist, writer, revolutionary, scientist, economist, sociologist, historian, essayist, researcher, political scientist, biologist, geographer  and philosopher.
    The Conquest of Bread has become a classic of political anarchist literature. It was heavily influential on both the Spanish Civil War and the Occupy movement.
    In the work, Kropotkin goes on to propose a more decentralized economic system based on mutual aid and voluntary cooperation, asserting that the tendencies for this kind of organization already exist, both in evolution and in human society.
