Synopsis

"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.

    Over billions of years of evolution, animals have become increasingly sophisticated and increasingly sentient. In the process, they evolved emotions, which helped improve their odds of survival in complex situations. These emotions were, at first, purely internal. But at some point, social animals began expressing their emotions, in increasingly dramatic ways. These emotional expressions could accurately reflect internal emotions (smiling to express happiness)—or they could be quite different (smiling to cover up that you're actually furious, but can't tell your boss that). 
     
     
      
    Why did once-stone-faced animals evolve to be so emotionally expressive—to be us? The answer, as evolutionary neurobiologist Mark Changizi and mathematician Tim Barber reveal, is that emotional expressions are our first and most important language—one that allows us, as social animals, to engage in highly sophisticated communications and negotiations. 
     
     
      
    Expressly Human introduces an original theory that explains, from first principles, how the broad range of emotional expressions evolved, and provides a Rosetta Stone for human communication. It will revolutionize the way you see every social interaction, from deciding who gets the last slice of pizza to multimillion-dollar business negotiations, and change your definition of what makes us human.

    The Mexican Revolution was a great revolution that included a series of army local battles instead of a single united struggle. It destroyed the Federal Force and changed it with an innovative army, changing Mexican civilization and governance at the same time It also culminated in the adoption of a new constitution that included the revolutionaries' ideal visions. 
    In spite of the fact that President Porfirio Daz's (from about 1880 to 1911) rule had grown progressively out of favor over the prior 31 years, there was no indicator that a transformation would break out in the year 1910. 
    Daz was not able to establish a regulated resolution to governmental succession, which led to a power struggle between opposing elites, and between elites and the middle classes, which sometimes included the "masses." 
    There were agrarian uprisings, most significantly in Morelos under Emiliano Zapata. 
    In this book, we will learn more about those.

    What makes the human mind so unique? And how did we get this way? 
     
     
     
    This fascinating tale explores the three leaps in our history that made us what we are—and will change how you think about our future. 
     
     
     
    Look around. Clearly, we humans are radically different from the other creatures on this planet. But why? Where are the Bronze Age beavers? The Iron Age iguanas? In Stories, Dice, and Rocks That Think, Byron Reese argues that we owe our special status to our ability to imagine the future and recall the past, escaping the perpetual present that all other living creatures are trapped in. 
     
      
      
    Envisioning human history as the development of a societal superorganism he names Agora, Reese shows us how this escape enabled us to share knowledge on an unprecedented scale, and predict—and eventually master—the future. 
     
     
      
    Thoughtful and witty, this must-listen book unravels our history as an intelligent species in three acts. A fresh new look at the history and destiny of humanity, listeners will come away from Stories, Dice, and Rocks That Think with a new understanding of what they are—not just another animal, but a creature with a mastery of time itself.
