Beschreibung

Greek Legacy explores the enduring influence of ancient Greece on Western Civilization, focusing on philosophy, politics, and science. It argues that Greece provided both the initial spark and continuous inspiration for Western thought. The book examines how Greek innovations such as Athenian Democracy shaped modern governance and how figures like Euclid revolutionized mathematics.

 
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the Bronze Age and continuing through the Roman period. It analyzes primary sources like Plato and Aristotle, along with archaeological findings, to understand Greek contributions. Intriguingly, Greek political systems evolved from monarchy to democracy, influencing modern governance, and their scientific advancements laid the groundwork for future discoveries.

 
Structured into three sections, the book covers the socio-political context, political innovations, and scientific achievements of ancient Greece. It reveals how key philosophical concepts emerged and how Greek advancements in astronomy and medicine continue to impact modern practices. This approach offers a holistic view of Greek influence, providing a deeper understanding of Western civilization's roots.

    When he woke up in jail in Fairfax County, Virginia, in 2015, Tim Murtaugh had no way of knowing he'd be a senior leader on the reelection campaign for the president of the United States less than four years later. 
     
     
     
    What began as a form of high school amusement quickly became an addiction, which over decades would lead Murtaugh to the edge of ruin. Able to beat the disease of alcoholism only under the threat of losing everything, and with the support of a loving wife and family, Murtaugh managed to recover, revive his career, and make it to the top of the political world. 
     
     
     
    Travel along on the 2020 Trump campaign as Murtaugh shares stories—never published before—from his two years as communications director, navigating a hostile media, the COVID-19 pandemic, highly anticipated debates, Election Day 2020, January 6, and life on the most-watched political campaign in world history. 
     
     
     
    Swing Hard in Case You Hit It is a redemption story unlike any other—from being on the verge of complete self-destruction to flying on Air Force One with President Donald J. Trump—that doesn't come with a happy Hollywood ending.

    Bridging Our Political Divide: How Liberals and Conservatives Can Understand Each Other and Find Common Ground is an essential contribution to a better national conversation. 
     
     
     
    Psychologist Kenneth Barish explains the sources and consistency of our political beliefs and why we continue to disagree about fundamental issues in American life. He offers antidotes to the angry, repetitive, and unproductive arguments that now dominate our political culture. Barish teaches us how to listen, think, and speak about our political opinions in a way that allows us to understand each other's concerns, resist false dichotomies and ideological certainty, see new perspectives and possibilities, and find common ground. The concluding chapter shows how we can move beyond partisan divisions toward pragmatic solutions and a better future for America's children. 
     
     
     
    This fundamentally hopeful book is an essential listen for students in all areas of study, for professionals in the fields of conflict resolution, communication, political science, and social psychology, and for anyone seeking to improve the quality of their conversations with people who may disagree with them, in both politics and in their personal relationships.

    The Byzantine-Sassanian Wars were the result of a long-standing rivalry between two of the most powerful empires of late antiquity. The Byzantine Empire, the continuation of the Roman Empire in the East, and the Sassanian Empire of Persia, which had overthrown the Parthians in the third century, were natural adversaries. Their struggle for dominance spanned several centuries, shaping the political and military landscape of the Near East. 
    The foundations of this rivalry were rooted in geography, politics, and history. The Byzantine and Sassanian Empires shared a vast border stretching from the Caucasus to the Arabian deserts, making territorial disputes inevitable. Control over key regions such as Armenia, Mesopotamia, and the Levant was crucial for trade, military strategy, and influence. The buffer zones between them often became battlegrounds, as both empires sought to extend their influence over the same contested territories. 
    Religious and ideological differences further deepened the divide. The Byzantines, as heirs to the Roman tradition, followed Christianity, which had become the dominant faith under Emperor Constantine and later solidified as the state religion. In contrast, the Sassanian rulers were staunch supporters of Zoroastrianism, the ancient Persian faith. This religious contrast was more than just a matter of belief; it shaped policies, alliances, and even the justification for war. Both empires saw themselves as defenders of their respective faiths, using religion to rally support and justify their military campaigns.

    Subjectified is a book about subjects, objects, and verbs. It is also a book about clothing-optional resorts, masturbation circles, and sex parties. 
     
     
     
    Suzannah Weiss takes the listener through her adventures as a sex and relationship writer to explore how we can create a world with less objectification and more subjectification—placing women and other marginalized groups in the subject role of sentences and actions. Offering a deeply personal critique of sexual empowerment movements, Weiss presents a way forward that focuses on what women desire, not what men desire from them. Subjectified calls for women everywhere to inhabit their bodies and hearts—to look through their own eyes and speak as "I." 
     
     
     
    The book is for everybody wanting to understand themselves as subjects. Wholeheartedly, the author invites you to follow her search for subjecthood and, should you desire, forge your own path out of objecthood.
