  The Athenian court has found Socrates guilty and sentenced him to death. While he is waiting to be executed, his friend, Crito, comes to the prison to persuade him to escape and go into exile. Socrates responds by examining the essence of law and community, probing the various kinds of law and making distinctions that go far beyond the particular issue of whether or not Socrates should escape.© Agora Publications

  The paranoia and recriminations that have been unleashed by religious inquisitions are quite extraordinary.  
  This audiobook explores the Inquisition in depth, leaving no stone unturned to find the root of what drove these religious persecutions.  
  Most people know about the Spanish Inquisition, but there were other inquisitions, such as those carried out by the Romans and the Portuguese. What was it that motivated these diehard religious zealots to squash all contrary views from their midst?  
  It is rather easy to paint one side as the “good guys” and the other as the “bad guys.” But unless we are a bunch of kids playing cops and robbers, this is an overly simplistic, narrow-minded, and lazy interpretation of what is a very complex history. In this audiobook, we explore all the dark nooks and crannies of what sparked massive inquiries into the faith of others and rampant persecution of religious beliefs. 
  In this captivating audiobook, you will discover the following:The root causes of the Inquisition;The real motivations behind the persecution;The harsh torture methods used to extract confessions;The estimated toll the Inquisition took on people’s lives;How the Inquisition ended;Its impact and legacy;And much more!

  While Belgium is bleeding and hoping, while Poland suffers and dreams of liberation, while Serbia is waiting for redemption, there is a little country the soul of which is torn to pieces—a little country that is so remote, so remote that her ardent sighs cannot be heard.It is the country of perpetual sacrifice, the country that saw Abraham build the altar upon which he was ready to immolate his only son, the country that Moses saw from a distance, stretching in beauty and loveliness,—a land of promise never to be attained,—the country that gave the world its symbols of soul and spirit. Palestine!No war correspondents, no Red Cross or relief committees have gone to Palestine, because no actual fighting has taken place there, and yet hundreds of thousands are suffering there that worst of agonies, the agony of the spirit.Those who have devoted their lives to show the world that Palestine can be made again a country flowing with milk and honey, those who have dreamed of reviving the spirit of the prophets and the great teachers, are hanged and persecuted and exiled, their dreams shattered, their holy places profaned, their work ruined. Cut off from the world, with no bread to sustain the starving body, the heavy boot of a barbarian soldiery trampling their very soul, the dreamers of Palestine refuse to surrender, and amidst the clash of guns and swords they are battling for the spirit with the weapons of the spirit.The time has not yet come to write the record of these battles, nor even to attempt to render justice to the sublime heroes of Palestine. This book is merely the story of some of the personal experiences of one who has done less and suffered less than thousands of his comrades.(Summary from the Introduction)

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  From the dawn of the railway age to the sleek high‑speed trains of the twenty‑first century, the story of the railroad has always carried a double edge—an instrument of triumph and transformation, and at the same time an arena of grief and devastation. Iron Catastrophes: A Global History of Train Disasters is a sweeping chronicle of how progress raced forward on steel tracks while continually stumbling into tragedy. 
  This book journeys across continents and centuries to chart the history of railway disasters in all their complex dimensions. Beginning with the earliest accidents of the nineteenth century, when untested locomotives burst their boilers or derailed on fragile tracks, it shows how railway travel was stamped by peril from its very birth. The death of British politician William Huskisson in 1830, struck down on the Liverpool and Manchester line’s opening day, symbolized how quickly innovation could turn lethal. Soon after came infernos, collisions in the fog, bridge collapses, and explosions that shocked a society intoxicated by speed yet horrified by risk. 
  The narrative then widens to explore disasters across Europe, America, Asia, Africa, and the colonial world. Chapters recount Europe’s notorious horrors—from Britain’s Harrow collision to France’s Versailles fire and Spain’s Torre del Bierzo tragedy—where crashes shattered faith in modernity. In America, endless expansion created reckless improvisations: wooden bridges that collapsed, locomotives that burned, collisions that littered small towns with wreckage. In Asia, the disasters grew on an almost unimaginable scale. India’s catastrophic wrecks, Japan’s cultural trauma at Amagasaki, Sri Lanka’s tsunami train engulfed by waves, and China’s modern tragedy at Wenzhou illustrate that even regions most reliant on the rails suffered losses measured in the thousands.
