Sinopse

"War's Hidden Costs" presents a groundbreaking examination of warfare's enduring psychological and social impacts that persist long after battles end. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple conflicts, the book reveals how combat's true costs extend far beyond traditional casualty counts and physical destruction, often affecting societies for 50-75 years after conflicts conclude.

 
The research uniquely combines military archives, psychological assessments, and longitudinal studies to paint a complete picture of war's lasting legacy. The book is structured in three illuminating sections, beginning with the science behind intergenerational trauma transmission, supported by neurobiological research. It then explores the disruption of social networks and community bonds through detailed case studies, before examining adaptive mechanisms that contribute to both individual and societal resilience. This methodical progression helps readers understand not just the problems war creates, but also potential paths to recovery and healing.

 
What sets this work apart is its interdisciplinary approach, bridging military history with social psychology and neuroscience. By analyzing previously unmined sources, including declassified military documents and multi-generational family studies, the book challenges conventional understanding of warfare's costs. The accessible writing style makes complex concepts understandable while maintaining academic rigor, making it valuable for both scholars and general readers interested in understanding the full scope of war's hidden impact on society.

    Queen Kunti, a tragic and heroic figure, emerges from an explosive era in the history of ancient India. Her teachings are simple and illuminating outpourings revealing the deepest transcendental emotions of the heart and the deepest philosophical and theological penetrations of the intellect. 
     
    Kunti is a major figure in the history of the ancient world. The wife of world emperor Pandu and mother of the warrior Arjuna—to whom Krishna spoke the Bhagavad-gita—she appears again and again in historical epics such as the Mahabharata and Srimad-Bhagavatam. Like other enlightened leaders of her time, her worldview was informed by a thorough understanding of Vedic wisdom literature. Thus she understood that Sri Krishna—Who happened to be her nephew—was none other than the Absolute Truth in person, appearing on earth to establish righteous rule over the planet. 
     
    At the conclusion of the devastating battle of Kurukshetra, Queen Kunti approaches Krishna as He prepares to depart for his home city of Dwaraka. Kunti's spontaneous glorification of Krishna and her description of the spiritual path appear in the First Canto of the Srimad-Bhagavatam. Srila Prabhupada wrote his translation and commentary on the First Canto in 1962—before coming to the West—but in a series of lectures given in the spring of 1973 in Los Angeles, he analyzed Queen Kunti's prayers in significantly greater detail and shed even more light upon them. 
     
    If truth be told from the dawn of creation it has been the female energy which from all life springs, is sustained, and propels us on in our timeless evolutionary journey to self. The powerful positive Shakti of the feminine energy invigorates, inspires, and enhances the finer propensities of life and reveals the subtle secrets of existence via its indivisible healing continence.

    My America - Langston Hughes on...

    Best known as the leader of the Harlem Renaissance, the celebrated poet and writer Langston Hughes believed in the power of art as resistance. What can we learn from his works today? 
      
    Randal M. Jelks delivers this revelatory portrait of the celebrated poet, essayist, playwright, and American artist Langston Hughes. My America traces Hughes's journey from a child captivated by the wonder of Kansas City to cosmopolitan witness in Paris, New York, Mexico City, and Madrid. We encounter Hughes as a young man discovering the pulse of modern life in a world on the verge of exploding metaphorically and literally. His experiences informed his work and his thinking on art, democracy, and activism. 
      
    Langston Hughes is one of the few American writers who consistently wrote about democracy from a joyous perspective, and My America explores how his works speak to the political anxieties and crises we face today. Jelks deftly examines the themes in Hughes's work, including creative expression, communal dignity, class struggle, and human suffering and what they mean for our inner well-being as democratic persons and political participants. 
      
    With care and no-holds-barred insight, My America removes the veneer of respectability often placed on Hughes's work and life to reveal his political adeptness. In a world threatened by fascism, Hughes's writing wasn't afforded the luxury of subtlety. He made a spiritual and political decision to stand on the side of the oppressed. He believed art should be practiced for the sake of justice. And democracy can be practiced with joy. 
      
    "Jelks offers readers an engaging, introspective view of poet Langston Hughes and curates a compelling narrative of Hughes as an activist, advocate, and champion of justice through his poetry. This spellbinding review of Langston's writings employs an invisible cinematic lens through which Jelks reveals Langston's life journey from childhood to adult, from the United States to Europe, describing his radical attempts to share his vision of living in a democracy. … A thought-provoking, enlightening read."—Library Journal
