In eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe everyone lived â ˜off the landâ ™ in one way or another. In Ireland, however, almost everyone lived â ˜on the landâ ™ as well. Agriculture was the only economic resource for the vast majority of the population outside the north-east of the country. Land was vital. But most of it was owned by a class of Protestant, English and often aristocratic landlords. The dream of having more control over their farms, even of owning them, drove many of the most explosive conflicts in Irish history. Rebellions against British rule were rare, but savage outbreaks of murder related to resentments over land ownership, and draconian state repression, were a regular feature of Irish rural life. The struggle for the land was also crucial in driving support for Irish nationalist demands for Home Rule and independence.In this epic narrative, Myles Dungan examines two hundred years of agrarian conflict from the ruinous famine of 1741 to the eve of World War Two. It explores the pivotal moments that shaped Irish history: the rise of moonlighting , the infamous Whiteboys and Rightboys, the insurrection of Captain Rock, the Tithe War of 1831â “36, the Great Famine of 1845 that devastated the country and drastically reduced the Irish population, and the Land War of 1878â “1909, which ended by transferring almost all the landlords holdings to their tenants. These events take place against the backdrop of prevailing British rule and stark class and wealth inequality.Land Is All that Matters tells the sweeping story of the agrarian revolution that fundamentally shaped modern Ireland.

Současný politický diskurs v USA - a i v dalších průmyslových demokraciích - byl až doposud založen na bezmezné víře v prosperitu , která pramenila z pocitu vítězství nad chudobou a zápasem o přežití. Dnes, když demokracie získala spíše materiální rozměr, se již málo bavíme o tom, kam by měla vlastně směrovat. Stejně tak se neptáme na otázku, jaký vztah by ve skutečnosti měl být mezi menšinou lidstva, která si užívá prosperity a většinou , která k prosperitě přístup nemá. Kniha Waiting for Something That Never Arrived vychází z několika výměn názorů mezi autorem a nedávno zesnulým britským historikem Tony Judtem a postupně se snaží o vybudování filosofického základu pro progresivní myšlení a rozvážnou politickou diskuzi. Kniha je v anglickém jazyce. Autor knihy Dan Shanahan je profesorem komunikace na Fakultě humanitních studií Univerzity Karlovy v Praze. Působil na fakultách Monterey Institute of International Studies v Kalifornii a na Ecole des hautes etudes commerciales v Paříži. Dvakrát také přednášel v rámci stipendií Fulbrightova programu. Je autorem knih Towards a Genealogy of Individualism (UMass Press, 1992) a Language, Feeling and the Brain (Transaction Publishers, 2007).

Michael A. Singer, author of The Untethered Soul, tells the extraordinary story of what happened when, after a deep spiritual awakening, he decided to let go of his personal preferences and simply let life call the shots. As Singer takes you on this great experiment and journey into life s perfection, the events that transpire will both challenge your deepest assumptions about life and inspire you to look at your own life in a radically different way.Spirituality is meant to bring about harmony and peace. But the diversity of our philosophies, beliefs, concepts, and views about the soul often leads to confusion. To reconcile the noise that clouds spirituality, Michael Singer combines accounts of his own life journey to enlightenment - from his years as a hippie-loner to his success as a computer program engineer to his work in spiritual and humanitarian efforts - with lessons on how to put aside conflicting beliefs, let go of worries, and transform misdirected desires. Singer provides a road map to a new way of living not in the moment, but to exist in a state of perpetual happiness.

Blackshirts Reds explores some of the big issues of our time: fascism, capitalism, communism, revolution, democracy, and ecology--terms often bandied about but seldom explored in the original and exciting way that has become Michael Parenti s trademark. Parenti shows how rational fascism renders service to capitalism, how corporate power undermines democracy, and how revolutions are a mass empowerment against the forces of exploitative privilege. He also maps out the external and internal forces that destroyed communism, and the disastrous impact of the free-market victory on eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. He affirms the relevance of taboo ideologies like Marxism, demonstrating the importance of class analysis in understanding political realities and dealing with the ongoing collision between ecology and global corporatism. Written with lucid and compelling style, this book goes beyond truncated modes of thought, inviting us to entertain iconoclastic views, and to ask why things are as they are. It is a bold and entertaining exploration of the epic struggles of yesterday and today. A penetrating and persuasive writer with an astonishing array of documentation to implement his attacks. --The Catholic Journalist Blackshirts Reds discusses the great combat between fascism and socialism that is the defining feature of the Twentieth Century, and takes every official version to task for its substitution of moral analysis for critical analysis, for its selectivity, and for its errata. By portraying the struggle between fascism and Communism in this century as a single conflict, and not a series of discrete encounters, between the insatiable need for new capital on the one hand and the survival of a system under siege on the other, Parenti defines fascism as the weapon of capitalism, not simply an extreme form of it. Fascism is not an aberration, he points out, but a rational and integral component of the system. --Stan Goff, The Prism Michael Parenti, PhD Yale, is an internationally known author and lecturer. He is one of the nation s leadiing progressive political analysts. He is the author of over 275 published articles and twenty books. His writings are published in popular periodicals, scholarly journals, and his op-ed pieces have been in leading newspapers such as The New York Times and The Los Angeles Times.

A new selection of letters, statements and interviews reveal the preoccupations, thoughts and ideas of Francis Bacon, one of the 20th century s most influential and important artists. The documents selected for Francis Bacon: A Self-Portrait in Words illustrate Bacon s sharp wit and ability to express complex ideas in highly personal, memorable language. Included here are not only letters to friends, patrons and fellow artists, but also intriguing notes and lists of paintings. They often come with a sketch as an aide-memoire or an injunction to himself as he worked in the studio, and many have only come to light since his death. Bacon s letters mirror and reveal his dominant preoccupations at different points throughout his long career. Most of Bacon s letters have never been published and include several that he wrote to the author. Particularly intriguing is the record of a dream that he jotted down, outlining impossibly beautiful paintings he had conjured up in his sleep. Together with photographs, archive material and works by the artist are numerous reproductions of Bacon s characteristic handwriting, from the briefest jottings and notes to more extensive letters and statements. Bacon frequently came up with memorable epithets and definitions. He delighted in doing with words what he set out to do in painting: I like phrases that cut me. Michael Peppiatt explores the personal legacy of one of the 20th century s most important painters and presents a compelling verbal self-portrait that reveals both man and artist.

Everyone has heard of the term pseudoscience, typically used to describe something that looks like science, but is somehow false, misleading, or unproven. Many would be able to agree on a list of things that fall under its umbrella - astrology, phrenology, UFOlogy, creationism, and eugenics might come to mind. But defining what makes these fields ⠜pseudo⠝ is a far more complex issue. It has proved impossible to come up with a simple criterion that enables us to differentiate pseudoscience from genuine science. Given the virulence of contemporary disputes over the denial of climate change and anti-vaccination movements - both of which display allegations of ⠜pseudoscience⠝ on all sides - there is a clear need to better understand issues of scientific demarcation.Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction explores the philosophical and historical attempts to address this problem of demarcation. This book argues that by understanding doctrines that are often seen as antithetical to science, we can learn a great deal about how science operated in the past and does today. This exploration raises several questions: How does a doctrine become demonized as pseudoscientific? Who has the authority to make these pronouncements? How is the status of science shaped by political or cultural contexts? How does pseudoscience differ from scientific fraud?Michael D. Gordin both answers these questions and guides readers along a bewildering array of marginalized doctrines, looking at parapsychology (ESP), Lysenkoism, scientific racism, and alchemy, among others, to better understand the struggle to define what science is and is not, and how the controversies have shifted over the centuries. Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction provides a historical tour through many of these fringe fields in order to provide tools to think deeply about scientific controversies both in the past and in our present.

What if the missing piece in our mental health crisis isn’t a new drug—but a forgotten nutrient? One whose absence fuels a quiet catastrophe in the minds of millions—eroding emotional resilience, independent thought, and even our capacity for democratic life. In this bold and eye-opening book, physician and molecular geneticist Dr. Michael Nehls reveals that lithium, long dismissed as a psychiatric drug, is an essential trace element—vital for brain health, emotional stability, and social cohesion. And yet, most people today are chronically deficient in this crucial element. Nehls presents six independent lines of scientific evidence proving lithium’s necessity. He shows how deficiency of lithium contributes to depression, Alzheimer’s, aggression, suicide, and societal breakdown—while the element itself remains banned or suppressed as a supplement in much of the world. Instead, children and adults alike are prescribed high-risk medications that mask symptoms but ignore the root cause. Inside The Conspiracy Against Lithium you’ll discover: • Why lithium is crucial for memory, emotional balance, and brain regeneration • The newly identified Lithiome: over 265 biological processes that rely on lithium • How microdoses (as little as 1 mg/day) can reduce inflammation, stress, and anxiety—even when conventional treatments fail • The transport systems that prove lithium’s biological necessity • Who profits from denying its role—and why that matters The Conspiracy Against Lithium is more than a health book—it’s a scientific manifesto. It challenges a system that profits off illness and calls for a treatment aligned with biology, evolution, and human dignity. Most urgently, it asks: Can democracy survive if our capacity for resilience, reason, and resistance is chemically eroded? This book will change how you think—about your mind, your body, and your freedom.

Audiokniha: It has been said that man shall not live off of bread alone. All people need food for the soul. Dr. Jakub Tencl takes the reader on a spiritual journey and challenges previous interpretations of the realm of the unknown. “The Mystery of Life contains 12 Chapters that expound on Jakub s personal experiences and spiritual growth. Dr. Jakub Tencl started his spiritual journey at an early age. His earliest memories of spiritual exploration came to him through dreams. Jakub first saw his death in a dream at a young age, and that dream dramatically altered the course of his life. He became an avid researcher of spirituality. Jakub’s lifelong search for truth led him down many paths. He obtained a deeper understanding of love, and cultivated his mind to exploring the horizons. Meditation became his guiding post to awareness. His daily meditations became a lifelong practice that aided his spiritual journey. Meditation allowed Jakub to realize that all persons are connected to the same life source. This book is Jakub’s powerful reflection of the depth and breadth of life. Through the ups and downs of his life he unearths the fundamental truth that mastery of self is a crucial element in spirituality. Spirituality doesn t have a reward list or gifts for good behavior. According to Jakub, “in our Western thinking we only look for effectiveness, for something that can be measured, and we have a tendency to expect something conditional.”

One of the most insightful books I⠙ve read about what makes us human and how we understand each other Bill GatesSteven Pinker, one of the world s greatest thinkers and bestselling author of Enlightenment Now, The Better Angels of Our Nature and The Language Instinct, reveals the power and perils of thinking alike As a cognitive scientist, the ultimate subject of Steven Pinker⠙s fascination is how we think about each other⠙s thoughts, ad infinitum. It sounds impossible, but Steven Pinker shows that we do it all the time. This awareness, which we experience as something that is public or ⠜out there,⠝ is called common knowledge, and it has a momentous impact on our social, political, and economic lives.Common knowledge, Pinker shows, can make sense of many of life⠙s enigmas: financial bubbles and crashes, revolutions that come out of nowhere, the posturing and pretence of diplomacy, the eruption of social media shaming mobs and academic cancel culture, the awkwardness of a first date. But people also go to great lengths to avoid common knowledge⠔to ensure that even if everyone knows something, they can⠙t know that everyone else knows they know it. And so we get rituals like benign hypocrisy, veiled bribes and threats, sexual innuendo, and pretending not to see the elephant in the room.In exploring the paradoxes of human behaviour, When Everyone Knows that Everyone Knows⠦ invites us to understand the ways we try to get into each other⠙s heads, and the harmonies, hypocrisies, and outrages that result.
