Dangerous Charisma by Jerrold M Post
Type : epub |
Size : 567.22 KB |
English |
Descirption: The long-time head of psychological profiling at the CIA puts President Trump under the psychiatric microscope, examining the unique connection between Trump and his base.
Offering an in-depth psychological and political portrait of what makes Donald Trump tick, Dangerous Charisma combines psychoanalysis with an investigation into the personality of the current American president. This narrative not only examines the life and psychology of Donald Trump, but will also provide an analysis of the charismatic psychological tie between Trump and his supporters.
While there are many books on Donald Trump, there has been no rigorous psychological portrait by a psychiatrist who specializes in political personality profiling. As the founding director of the CIA's Center for the Analysis of Personality and Political Behavior, Dr. Post has created profiles of world leaders for the use of American presidents during historic events. As once stated by Jane Mayer of The New Yorker, who characterized Dr. Post as "a pioneer in the field of political personality profiling," "he may be the only psychiatrist who has specialized in the self-esteem problems of both Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein."
In this new book, the psychiatrist who once served under five American presidents applies his expertise to profiling the current resident in the White House, with surprising and revelatory results.
**
Review
"Post is a pioneer in the field of political-personality profiling."
- Jane Meyer, bestselling author of Dark Money and staff writer for the New Yorker [praise for Jerrold Post]
"A damning study of Trump's mind that goes a long way toward explaining some damnably odd behavior."
- Kirkus Revie
"This incisive analysis of illness and leadership is nothing short of a tour de force."
- Bert Park, M.D., author of The Impact of Illness on World Leaders [praise for Jerrold Post[
"This book is a breakthrough in the study of political leadership. Combines medical, political, and psychological analysis in a highly original account of the effects of aging and illness on political leaders in various times and cultures. It should be read by scholars and citizens alike, not least by those in power."
- Robert J. Tucker, author of Politics as Leadership and Stalin in Power, 1928-41 [praise for Jerrold Post]
"A sophisticated and knowledgeable treatment of a most complex and demanding subject. A book of top importance during an era when so many global and national leaders are subject to heavy stress and illness."
- James MacGregor Burns, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Roosevelt: Soldier of Freedom [praise for Jerrold Post]
"A persuasive case for giving more attention to what to do when world leaders suffer serious ailments."
- The Economist [praise for Jerrold Post]
"Jerrold Post has made it plain to those of us in government that the health and stability of heads of other nations may have as much to do with our national security as weapons and armies. Now he and Robert Robins bring that notion to a wider audience in a readable and important book."
- Les Aspin, Secretary of Defense [praise for Jerrold Post]
"Presents numerous fascinating examples of how such diverse leaders as Winston Churchill, the Shah of Iran, Menachem Begin, the recent Soviet gerontocracy, Mao and Deng, and several American presidents have had their ability to lead diminished to the point that they became dangers to their nations. Highly recommended."
- Library Journal [praise for Jerrold Post]
"A highly useful account of what is special about illness and incapacity in political leaders. A substantial contribution on a complex and fascinating subject."
- Edward J. Burger, Jr., M.D., New England Journal of Medicine [praise for Jerrold Post]
"An unflinching, powerful book . . . totally satisfying."
- Robert M. Dorn, Psychiatric Times [praise for Jerrold Post]

F-Bomb by Lauren McKeon
Type : epub |
Size : 558.8 KB |
English |
Descirption: Women are leading the fight against feminism and women's rights. The question is, why?
From pop icons to working mothers, women are abandoning feminism in unprecedented numbers. Even scarier, they are also leading the charge to send it to its grave. Women head anti-feminist PR campaigns; they support anti-feminist politicians; they're behind more than 70 lauits across North America to silence the victims of campus bang; they participated in Gamergate, the violent, vitriolic anti-women-in-technology movement; and they're on the front lines of the fight to end reproductive rights. Everywhere we turn, there's evidence anti-feminist bombs have exploded, sometimes detonated by the unlikeliest suspects. Between women who say they don't need feminism and women who can't agree on what feminism should be, the challenges of fighting for gender equality have never been greater.
F-Bomb takes readers on a witty, insightful, and deeply fascinating journey...

English |
Descirption: <a href="https://.goodreads.com/book/show/19209219-new-europe"><span style="color: #6cb4ee">New Europe</a>
Until the early 1990s, when the Berlin Wall came tumbling down, travelling behind the iron curtain was never easy. In undertaking his new journey through Eastern Europe, breathing in its rich history, and exquisite sights and talking to its diverse peoples, Michael fills what has been a void in his own experience and that of very many others.
NEW EUROPE is very much a voyage of discovery, from the sno of the Julian Alps to the beauty of the Baltic sea, he finds himself in countries he'd barely heard of, many unfamiliar and mysterious, all with tragic histories and much brighter futures.
During his 20-country adventure Palin meets Romanian lumberjacks, drives the 8.58 stopping train from Poznan to Wolsztyn, treads the catwalk at a Budapest fashion show, learns about mine-clearing in Bosnia and watches Turkish gents wrestling in olive oil.
As with all his bestselling books, in his uniquely entertaining style, Palin opens up a new and undiscovered world to millions of readers.

We Can't Breathe by Jabari Asim
Type : epub |
Size : 3.59 MB |
English |
Descirption: Insightful and searing essays that celebrate the vibrancy and strength of black history and culture in America by critically acclaimed writer Jabari Asim
In We Can't Breathe, Jabari Asim disrupts what Toni Morrison has exposed as the "Master Narrative" and replaces it with a story of black survival and persistence through art and community in the face of centuries of racism. In eight wide-ranging and penetrating essays, he explores such topics as the twisted legacy of jokes and falsehoods in black life; the importance of black fathers and community; the significance of black writers and stories; and the beauty and pain of the black body. What emerges is a rich portrait of a community and culture that has resisted, survived, and flourished despite centuries of racism, violence, and trauma. These thought-provoking essays present a different side of American history, one that doesn't depend on a narrative steeped in oppression but rather reveals black voices...

Descirption: <a href="https://.goodreads.com/book/show/44166088-the-shadow-king"><span style="color: #6cb4ee">The Shadow King</a>
In 1935, orphaned servant Hirut struggles to adapt to her new household as Ethiopia faces Mussolini's looming invasion. As the battles begin in earnest, Hirut and other women must care for the wounded. But when Emperor Haile Selassie goes into exile and Ethiopia is about to lose hope, Hirut helps to disguise a gentle peasant as the emperor to keep the fight alive. She becomes his guard, inspiring women to join the war against fascism.
In this extraordinary, beautifully told epic, Hirut overcomes bang, violence, and imprisonment, finding the strength to fight for her country's freedom and her own. Maaza Mengiste breathes life into complicated characters on both sides of the battle line, shaping a searing story of ordinary women and the advanced army they courageously opposed. Set against the first real conflict of World War II, The Shadow King is a heartrending, indelible exploration of what it means to be a woman at war.

Branding A Very Short Introduction - Robert Jones

Descirption: Branding is possibly the most powerful commercial and cultural force on the planet. Iconic names such as Coca-Cola, Nike, Manchester United, Harry Potter, and Google are known and recognized by millions of people worldwide. As the market economy spreads across the world, brands are becoming ever more prevalent. The Apple brand has been valued at $98 billion - more than the GDP of Slovakia. Every day, we're exposed to more than 3500 brand messages. And even though people are increasingly brand-aware and brand-sceptical, they are nevertheless seduced by brands. We may reject the whole brand system, but we still wouldn't be parted from our Apple Macs. Brands are impossible to escape. In this Very Short Introduction Robert Jones discusses the rising omnipresence of brands, and analyses how they work their magic. He considers the incredible potency of brands as a commercial, social, and cultural force, and looks at the many different kinds of brands that exist - from products,...

The Probiotic Kitchen by Kelli Foster
Type : epub |
Size : 14.18 MB |
English |
Descirption: For optimum probiotic nutrition, it's time to say goodbye to supplements and pills and to bring <span style="font-weight: 600; font-style: italic">all-natural, all-delicious, real-food probiotic (and prebiotic) meals into your life.
Doctors and nutritionists firmly agree that probiotics are essential for everyday health and nutrition. Probiotics add "good bacteria" to the human gut. They crowd out "bad bacteria" and foster the absorption of nutrients through the intestinal walls. Everyone needs probiotics, just as they also need prebiotics, which make probiotics work. Probiotics also aid in the relief of chronic health issues, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as well as all kinds of occasional belly discomfort. They have anti-inflammatory properties, too.
Kelli Foster's <span style="font-weight: 600; font-style: italic">The Probiotic Kitchen makes probiotic cooking easier and tastier than it's ever been before. Her recipes feature all the all-natural, probiotic-rich foods that are available now, from yogurts and aged cheeses to miso, kombucha, good old-fashioned pickles-and even chocolate.
