Synopsis

In "Instinct and the Unconscious," W.H.R. Rivers intricately explores the interplay between innate instincts and the complexities of the human psyche. Rivers, a pioneering anthropologist and psychologist, synthesizes insights from both disciplines, delving into the unconscious mind's role in shaping human behavior. The book's literary style is both rigorous and eloquent, employing a blend of scientific analysis and philosophical reflection that resonates with the intellectual movements of early 20th-century thought, particularly psychoanalysis and anthropology, and invites readers to contemplate the underlying motivations of human actions. W.H.R. Rivers was a transformative figure whose multidisciplinary background informed his outlook on human nature. His experiences as a medical doctor, combined with fieldwork among indigenous tribes, illuminated the dynamic between cultural context and psychological processes. Rivers' commitment to understanding the nuanced fabric of human life set the stage for this work, as he sought to bridge the gap between instinctual drives and the social constructs that mitigate them. "Instinct and the Unconscious" is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of human psychology and anthropology. Rivers' work remains pertinent, offering timeless insights into the intricate relationship between instinct and the unconscious, making this book an essential addition to the library of scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike.

    Truth is being destroyed, free speech criminalized, the dollar fast becoming worthless. Ideologues at the helm of Big Tech, Big Media, and Big Business are set on the destruction of capitalism and democracy. Powerful federal agencies are no longer protectors of the people, but their primary adversary. 
     
     
     
    Not since the Civil War has our nation been so divided, bringing us to the edge of national suicide. And our enemies—China being chief among them—see our weakness. If we falter, they will act. 
     
     
     
    Not since World War II have we faced an adversary so determined to achieve global dominance. At this moment, they are perfecting an arsenal of weapons to use against us: Quantum computing. Artificial intelligence. Hypersonic missiles. Bio-warfare. These are threats we must defeat. But before we are able to do that, we must protect ourselves from the enemy within. 
     
     
     
    Many of our forefathers had to fight a Great War to save their freedom. It falls upon this generation to fight two. But we must not lose hope. There is a way to save our nation.

    Thomas Paine was a political activist, theorist, political theorist, and revolutionary who was born in England. He wrote 2 of the most popular handouts at the beginning of the American Revolution, Common Sense (1776) and The American Crisis (1776-- 1783) and helped motivate patriots to announce independence from Great Britain in 1776. His thoughts echoed the Knowledge's global human rights concepts. 
    Paine, who was born in Thetford, Norfolk, relocated to the British American groups with the support of Benjamin Franklin in 1774, in the nick of time to participate in the American Revolution. Practically each rebel read (or heard to a reading of) his 47-page brochure Good sense, which was proportionally the very popular American title of perpetuity and catalyzed the defiant need for independence from Great Britain. The American Crisis was a pamphlet series that promoted for revolution. Paine spent the most of the 1790s in France, where he ended up being deeply immersed in the Reign of terror. He wrote Rights of Man (1791), which was partially a defense to the challengers of the Reign of terror. In 1792, he was tried and found guilty in England for seditious libel in his lack for his attacks on Anglo-Irish conservative author Edmund Burke. 
    Thomas Paine has certainly left his mark. He’s become a historical figure worth remembering. Let’s explore more about his life and mission in this book.

    THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER  
    The inside story of Mikel Arteta’s astonishing transformation of Arsenal 
    November 2019. Unai Emery’s final game as Arsenal manager sees the Gunners languishing eighth in the league. Appointed in the dying embers of the Wenger years, Emery’s 18 months as Arsenal boss has seen the team and the club go backwards – playing unimaginative, pragmatic football, and recently losing to London rivals Chelsea in the final of the Europa League. Something had to change; a fresh head with fresh ideas. A new leader. 
    This is the story of how Mikel Arteta turned Arsenal into one of the most exciting, innovative and feared teams in the league. From cutting his teeth as an assistant under Pep Guardiola before joining Arsenal in the winter of 2019, through to title contenders years later – including bust-ups, Covid, disappointments, FA Cup wins, fan revolt, and eventually the rise of an extraordinary young team standing on the edge of greatness – this book will be the first of its kind to explore the workings of Arteta’s philosophy and how he transformed the club from outsiders to title challengers. 
    With chapters on his tactical innovations, in-game strategies, transfer insight and, of course, an account of the memorable 2022-23 season – Revolution is the story of an extraordinary football ascent and the first draft of Arsenal’s new history. 
    The latest bestseller, Revolution, is a non-fiction masterpiece that chronicles the rise of Arsenal in the 21st century under the leadership of Mikel Arteta. It provides an in-depth look into the economics and management strategies employed, making it a must-read for fans and business enthusiasts alike. 
    For fans of Ray Walker (The Ultimate Los Angeles Rams Trivia Book), Joshua Robinson (Messi vs. Ronaldo), David Dein (Calling the Shots), Jon Spurling (Get It On), and Ian Wright (A Life in Football).
