    Life Is Short - An Appropriately...

    Why life's shortness—more than anything else—is what makes it meaningful 
     
     
     
    Death might seem to render pointless all our attempts to create a meaningful life. Doesn't meaning require transcending death through an afterlife or in some other way? On the contrary, Dean Rickles argues, life without death would be like playing tennis without a net. Only constraints—and death is the ultimate constraint—make our actions meaningful. In Life Is Short, Rickles explains why the finiteness and shortness of life is the essence of its meaning—and how this insight is the key to making the most of the time we do have. 
     
     
     
    Life Is Short explores how death limits our options and forces us to make choices that forge a life and give the world meaning. But people often live in a state of indecision, in a misguided attempt to keep their options open. This provisional way of living—always looking elsewhere, to the future, to other people, to other ways of being, and never committing to what one has or, alternatively, putting in the time and energy to achieve what one wants—is a big mistake, and Life Is Short tells listeners how to avoid this trap. By reminding us how extraordinary it is that we have any time to live at all, Life Is Short challenges us to rethink what gives life meaning and how to make the most of it.

    A certified psychedelic therapist explores the deeper healing offered by psychedelics to those working through trauma.   “Micah has created a must-read for anyone curious about the healing power of psychedelics. Healing Psychedelics demystifies the process and emphasizes safety and effectiveness, making it an essential guide for both new explorers and seasoned practitioners.” —Jessika Lagarde, psychedelic-assisted medicine facilitator, integration coach, and cofounder of Women On Psychedelics   Psychedelics are showing great promise as a new way to heal trauma and improve emotional wellness. Studies reveal that they can be effective in reducing PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms, even in cases that are resistant to other treatments. Stover offers a comprehensive and informative guide for both professionals and patients who are interested in learning more about psychedelic-assisted therapy.   Each chapter reveals a vignette taken directly from the psychedelic space that shows the medicines (medium and macro-doses of MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, and cannabis), why they were chosen, and the process used for transformation during the sessions. Stover weaves in wisdom from indigenous and Mexican healers and practitioners with application exercises, writing prompts, and journal entries to deepen the reader’s healing journey. These exercises are applicable to all readers, whether you are working on your own or with a therapist.  Healing Psychedelics shows the complete process, enabling the reader to safely unlock the power of psychedelics to heal trauma and transform their life for a brighter future.

    The Fall of Berlin - The Final...

    In the final years of World War II, the fate of Nazi Germany seemed sealed. By early 1945, the once-feared Reich was in rapid decline. The German military was stretched thin, fighting on multiple fronts, and its once-unstoppable war machine had been crippled by continuous defeats. The Allies from the west and the Soviets from the east were closing in, their forces overwhelming the remnants of the German military. 
      
    In the East, the Red Army’s relentless advance had already pushed the Germans back hundreds of miles from the Soviet Union’s borders. The success of the Soviet offensives, especially following the victory at Stalingrad, left the Nazis reeling. Soviet General Zhukov’s forces had already crossed the Vistula River in Poland and were now bearing down on the Oder River, just a stone’s throw from Berlin. The Red Army’s advance was swift, and Hitler, from his bunker beneath the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, could no longer deny the grim reality that the capital was in imminent danger. 
      
    Despite this, Adolf Hitler refused to surrender or even entertain the thought of defeat. His obsession with holding Berlin—his “fortress”—was absolute. As Soviet forces neared the capital, he remained convinced that a miracle might still turn the tide. To his inner circle, this delusion became apparent. His judgment was clouded, and the once-great military genius was now a desperate and isolated dictator. He ordered that Berlin be fortified, even though it was clear that the city’s defenses were insufficient against the overwhelming Soviet force.

    Why War?

    Why has war been such a consistent presence throughout the human past? A leading historian explains, drawing on rich examples and keen insight. 
     
     
     
    Richard Overy is not the first scholar to take up the title question. In 1931, at the request of the League of Nations, Albert Einstein asked Sigmund Freud to collaborate on a short work examining whether there was "a way of delivering mankind from the menace of war." Published the next year as a pamphlet entitled Why War?, it conveyed Freud's conclusion that the "death drive" made any deliverance impossible—the psychological impulse to destruction was universal in the animal kingdom. The global wars of the later 1930s and 1940s seemed ample evidence of the dismal conclusion. 
     
     
     
    A preeminent historian of those wars, Overy brings vast knowledge to the title question and years of experience unraveling the knotted motivations of war. His approach is to separate the major drivers and motivations, and consider the ways each has contributed to organized conflict. They range from the impulses embedded in human biology and psychology, to the incentives to conflict developed through cultural evolution, to competition for resources. The discussions show remarkable range, delving deep into the Neolithic past, through the twentieth-century world wars, and up to the current conflict in Ukraine.
