We-Topia is the true and shocking story of how ego conquered the world. From happier, healthier, and more spiritually evolved nomadic ancestors to a selfish globalized world that exploits, divides, and petrifies today, We-Topia explores how a powerless society has always been part of the plan. And its worked. Across the millennia, society gradually devalued human consciousness while social systems such as slavery, money, and religion turned people into resources. Now, like a James Bond villain, this purposeful manipulation mesmerizes us to be consumers and tells us that higher spiritual evolution is a delusion. How did this happen? How do we change? What is lifes purpose and meaning? We-Topia answers these questions with some good news - theres a way out of this mess and there always has been. As our ancestors knew, liberty from ego is possible when society values real human needs, and We-Topia provides the concepts for you to begin. It is a spiritual odyssey from me to we - the ultimate inside-out rebellion against 13,000 years of conditioning. Autorid: Michael Paul Stephens

Mis on sõdade põhjus? Kuidas maailma rahumeelsemaks muuta? Selles rahvusvaheliste suhete tähtteoses, mis esimest korda ilmus 1959. aastal, analüüsib silmapaistev realistliku koolkonna esindaja Kenneth N. Waltz üksikasjalikult riikidevaheliste konfliktide olemust. Ta süveneb Püha Augustinuse, Hobbes"i, Kanti, Rousseau" jt poliitfilosoofia klassikute, aga ka nüüdisaja psühholoogide ja antropoloogide teostesse, uurib nende pakutud seletusi sõdadele riikide vahel ning soovitusi, kuidas rahu saavutada ja hoida. Oma mõjukas käsitluses sõdade põhjustest eristab Waltz kolme "kuva" (images): esimeses kahtlustatakse üksikuid riigijuhte või inimloomust, teises lähtutakse riikide sisemisest ülesehitusest ja kolmandas vaadeldakse rahvusvahelise süsteemi arhitektuuri. Stephen M. Walt tutvustab oma eessõnas Waltzi pärandit ja tema teoste olulisust tänapäeval. * Ühe raamatu väljaandmine eesti keeles võtab aega ja nii lihtsalt juhtus, et Kenneth N. Waltzi "Inimene, riik ja sõda" langes ajale, mil Euroopas möllab täiemahuline sõda. Waltzi raamat kujutab endast suurepärast instrumenti, et mõista, miks see sõda algas, aga ka seda, miks paljud riigid ja inimesed sõja valguses just nii on käitunud. Lause "sõda puudutab meid kõiki" on muutunud juba banaalsuseks, aga Waltzi analüüs annab sellele sisu. Sest Waltz puudutab nii üksikisiku, riigi kui ka riikidevahelist tasandit, mida ta nimetab kuvaks (image). Sõda on ühel või teisel viisil puudutanud igaüht meist, sellest ei pääse ka Eesti riik ja loomulikult seostub riikidevaheline kuva sõjaga. Üle poole sajandi tagasi kirjutatud teos on tugev just sellepärast, et näitab kindlaid seaduspärasusi, mis tekivad riikide käitumises ja omavahelises põrkumises. Sõja vältimise küsimusega on tegelenud paljud filosoofid ja Waltzi teene on näidata, kuidas see idee on aastatega arenenud. On hea, et säärast analüüsi on nüüd võimalik lugeda ka eesti keeles. " Erkki Bahovski, Postimehe arvamustoimetaja Autorist: Kenneth Neal Waltz (1924"2013) oli Ameerika poliitikateadlane, Columbia Ülikooli ja Berkeley California Ülikooli õppejõud ning üks kõige silmapaistvamaid rahvusvaheliste suhete uurijaid. Ta võitles Teises maailmasõjas ja Korea sõjas. Waltz oli rahvusvaheliste suhete teoorias üks neorealismi ehk struktuurse realismi suuna rajajaid ja hiljem ühines kaitsva neorealismi koolkonnaga. Waltzi ideid on rahvusvaheliste suhete valdkonnas põhjalikult arutatud. Tema autoriteetseim teos "Rahvusvahelise poliitika teooria" ("Theory of International Politics", 1979), rahvusvahelise jõudude tasakaalu süstemaatiline käsitlus, püsis ühena poliitikateaduse õpikutekstidest veel XXI sajandi algusaastail.

With a new Afterword. Lance Armstrong won a record-smashing seven Tour de France yellow jerseys after staring down cancer, and in the process became an international symbol of resilience and courage. In a sport constantly dogged by blood doping scandals, Armstrong seemed above the fray. Never had cycling - or any sport-boasted such a charismatic and accomplished champion. Then, in the summer of 2012, the legend imploded. The rumors that had long dogged Armstrong began to solidify. Buried evidence surfaced. Hushed-up witnesses came forth. Armstrong's Tour victories were stripped from him. His sponsors abandoned him. In January 2013, Armstrong finally admitted doping during the Tours, and in an interview with Oprah, described his "mythic, perfect story" as "one big lie." But his admission raised more questions than it answered. With over three years of extensive reporting, deep sourcing, and interviews with nearly every key player, including Armstrong, Reed Albergotti and Vanessa O'Connell have established themselves as the undisputed authorities on this story. Wheelmen reveals the broader tale of how Armstrong and his supporters used money, power, and cutting-edge science to conquer the world's most difficult race. It offers a riveting look at what happens when enigmatic genius breaks loose from the strictures of morality. It reveals the competitiveness and ingenuity that sparked blood doping as an accepted practice, and shows how Americans methodically constructed an international operation of spies and breakthrough technology to reach the top. Lance Armstrong survived and thrived against nigh-insurmountable odds and built a team of unprecedented accomplishment. But in the end, his own outsized ambition destroyed it. At last exposing the truth about Armstrong and American cycling, Wheelmen paints a living portrait of what is, without question, the greatest conspiracy in the history of sports.

Philip Schultz is famous for his empathetic explorations of male shortcomings, primarily those of his late father. Enormous Morning, his incisive new volume, reflects on the sacrifices of women in their roles as mothers, wives and friends, including those of his own mother, who was forced to support the family in the face of his fathers financial ruin. The collection ends with a long poem, Something and Nothing, that pays homage to the Arshile Gorky painting The Artist and His Mother. But the poems are also political in scope. Schultz weaves these personal stories into the broader tapestry of our political moment, reflecting on the fragility of democracy, including the January 6 insurrection, and those who are willing to sacrifice themselves to preserve it. Intimate, vulnerable and inviting, Enormous Morning cements Schultz as our greatest chronicler of compassion. Philip Schultzs Luxury was praised as: Compelling (Schultzs] works are replete with insights and nuggets of wisdom. The Washington Post Autorid: Philip Schultz
In May 2024, the "Corpus der hethitischen Festrituale (HFR)" project organized its second International symposium and brought together distinguished scholars from various countries to discuss a range of phenomena pertaining to scribal habits and practices in Hittite Anatolia during the second millennium BCE. The symposium addressed both the methods of digital and traditional approaches to understand ancient writing practices and scribal customs. After a comprehensive introduction, the alphabetically arranged contributions explore various topics by different authors, e.g. stylometric approaches, digital palaeography and the origins of Hittite scribal practices. Furthermore, it comprises the research on palaeographic features in texts from regions outside the Hittite capital ¿attua (texts from Mäat Höyük, from Kayal¿p¿nar and from Büklükale). The majority of the contributions focus on specific corpora of Hittite texts and analyze their palaeography or investigate the number of scribes involved. These texts include administrative records, cult inventories, the ¿iuwa festival, Palaic texts, the nuntarriya¿a festival, Hittite votive inscriptions, the Zukrai text, the AN.DA¿.UM festival, and Hittite divination texts. With this volume, the HFR project offers a study that not only presents the current state of Hittite palaeography, but also establishes a foundation for future research, particularly that involving automated analytical tools.

“A real contribution to the study of Faulkner’s work.” —Edmund WilsonA Penguin ClassicIn prose of biblical grandeur and feverish intensity, William Faulkner reconstructed the history of the American South as a tragic legend of courage and cruelty, gallantry and greed, futile nobility and obscene crimes. He set this legend in a small, minutely realized parallel universe that he called Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi.No single volume better conveys the scope of Faulkner’s vision than The Portable Faulkner. The book includes self-contained episodes from the novels The Sound and the Fury, Light in August, and Sanctuary; the stories “The Bear,” “Spotted Horses,” “A Rose for Emily,” and “Old Man,” among others; a map of Yoknapatawpha County and a chronology of the Compson family created by Faulkner especially for this edition; and the complete text of Faulkner’s 1950 address upon receiving the Nobel Prize in literature. Malcolm Cowley’s critical introduction was praised as “splendid” by Faulkner himself.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,800 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
