  What if praying for the wrong thing led you further from the good? 
  In Second Alcibiades, Plato invites readers to a bold examination of prayer, intention, and the blindness of ambition. Socrates challenges the fiery young Alcibiades to reflect on whether he even understands what he should pray for before entering the political arena. 
  What you'll discover inside: 
  •	The Fragility of Political Ambition – A revealing dialogue between Socrates and Alcibiades on the ignorance behind power-seeking. 
  •	A Sharp Critique of Prayer – Philosophical guidance on why piety demands more than sincerity. 
  •	A Modern, Accessible Translation – Clear, faithful, and resonant for today’s listener. 
  •	Essential Themes of Plato’s Philosophy – Explore the timeless tension between desire, knowledge, and divine will. 
  More than a conversation—Second Alcibiades is a philosophical awakening.

  Mourning Bands On is an accessible journey into the hypersensitive world of today's American law enforcement. The reader is brought into the law enforcement world through an introduction to the history, function, and development of the American police model. With an understanding of policing's role in American society, the reader is then immersed into the raucous and contentious cultural upheaval which American policing is currently experiencing.
  Using well-known examples, the reader is challenged to consider how American culture is affected by critical incidents and the portrayal of those events in our media intensive world. The reader will review the cases in the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, as well as others. The cases are presented as a narrative of events supported by the findings and legal conclusions of the U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation. Each incident is reviewed with a view of how the incident effected American society and brought change to American culture and thus policing.
  The reader will experience how American policing has changed through legislative, societal, and cultural pressure resulting from the reviewed critical incidents. With an appetite for more, the reader is encouraged to further explore the relationship between societal norms and American policing.
  The work concludes with a final challenge to the reader. How do we, as a society, reform American policing to move forward after this unprecedented period of cultural change? The author offers several possible reforms to enact, what can you add to the conversation?
