![]() ![]() And while Americans tend to assume that democracy is inherently stable and their government institutions are strong enough to withstand antidemocratic attacks, this is not true. ![]() In his Prologue, Snyder echoes this fear and notes that democratic regimes have always fallen to tyranny ever since the very concepts of democracy and tyranny were invented in ancient Greece. Indeed, this bestselling book began as a Facebook post after Trump’s election, when many Americans were starting to worry that Trump’s political ideology and rhetorical style closely resembled those of 20th-century fascists and contemporary dictators around the world. ![]() In On Tyranny, a short guide to 20 different strategies that citizens can use to defend democracy against an authoritarian government, historian Timothy Snyder looks to 20th-century Europe in an effort to help 21st-century Americans cope with Donald Trump’s presidency. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Smart firms can harness collective capability and genius to spur innovation, growth, and success.Ī brilliant guide to one of the most profound changes of our time, Wikinomics challenges our most deeply rooted assumptions about business and will prove indispensable to anyone who wants to understand competitiveness in the twenty-first century.īased on a $9 million research project led by bestselling author Don Tapscott, Wikinomics shows how masses of people can participate in the economy like never before. While some leaders fear the heaving growth of these massive online communities, Wikinomics proves this fear is folly. Today, encyclopedias, jetliners, operating systems, mutual funds, and many other items are being created by teams numbering in the thousands or even millions. In just the last few years, traditional collaboration-in a meeting room, a conference call, even a convention center-has been superseded by collaborations on an astronomical scale. ![]() ![]() ![]() The new man will be earthy and divine, worldly and other-worldly. The new man will not be either/or he will be both/and. We have come to a point where the old has to be dropped and the new has to be heralded. ![]() If something is repressed, man becomes aggressive, he loses all soft qualities. And because it was repressive, it was bound to become aggressive. Only a tree that has lived wholly will flower. Celebration is the fragrance of being whole. ![]() He is half, and because he is half he is always in anguish and tension he cannot celebrate. He has not been allowed to bloom in his totality. A humanoid is one who looks like a human being but is utterly crippled, paralyzed. In the past we were not able to create real human beings, but humanoids. That’s what has been the case in the past. You will become a battle-ground, a civil war. It will go on finding ways and means to overcome the part that you have imposed upon yourself. ![]() He can never be healthy and can never be whole, the other half that has been denied will go on taking revenge. Once you divide man in two, you create misery and hell for him. This is just utterly mad it is unbelievable. In three thousand years, five thousand wars have been fought. The whole past of humanity has been sick, unhealthy, insane. The old concept of man was of either/or materialist or spiritualist, moral or immoral, sinner or saint. On 1st January 1979, someone asked Osho what his message to humanity was and here are some excerpts from Osho’s answer to that question : ![]() ![]() So, without further ado, here’s how Dune by Frank Herbert can change your life. Paul and his family wind up in a plot full of intrigues, politics, and power play. And yet, he decides to face his new role on Arrakis. Leto knows this is a risk: he’s sure his enemies are plotting against him. One day, the emperor of the galaxy commands Leto to become the new governor of Arrakis - a harsh desert planet and the only known source of spice. The protagonist is the boy Paul Atreides, son of Duke Leto Atreides. AI has gone extinct, but, thanks to a mind-enhancing substance called “spice,” humanity has spread across the universe. The story unfolds thousands of years in the future. Heroes are a matter of perspective, and you have to develop your own viewpoint. ![]() It’s an out-of-body experience - as if you entered different minds and lived their lives for a moment.Īs a result, the lessons are so much more powerful because not everything is spelled out. That’s the power of fiction, particularly in a complex story like Dune. ![]() Despite that - or rather, because of that - the book tells a fantastic story while teaching profound lessons. Dune by Frank Herbert is a sci-fi novel published in 1965, and it doesn’t include the 34 steps to guaranteed success.

One crisis after another, she desperately tries to cope with a society that seems to reject her she survives episodes of self-harm, eating disorders and intense depression. ![]() She has to face adulthood she is not ready for. The story starts as soon as she leaves high school. The narration is fragmented, following her thoughts but sometimes leaving the reader behind. It is not an easy task to describe what Nagata goes through in My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness. But page after page, the narrative almost feels like small talk with a close friend. The blunt writing style contrasts with the cute, pink-dominated visuals, which can disorient the reader at first. ![]() My lesbian experience with loneliness is an autobiographical comic about depression, inadequacy, and sexuality. For her, this comic was the beginning of an intimate revolution: the revolution of self-discovery and self-acceptance of Nagata herself. Nor that it would have a significant impact on its genre. When 29-years-old Kabi Nagata published her first manga in 2016, My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness, she had no idea it would win two awards ( Crunchyroll Anime Award in 2017 and Harvey Award in 2018). ![]() ![]() ![]() While I could argue that this is more fantasy than urban fantasy, this is a story about shifters so I feel okay adding it to the list.

The reader shouldn’t care about her story or become quickly invested, but I was intrigued. Sonny is a liar and a relatively unlikable character. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This group is a safe environment, where readers can find awesome new books to obsess over while gaining deeper insight into the creation of their favorite stories. ![]() This group is a safe environment, where readers c Welcome to Some Like It Hot!, a group for those of us who love to read and write romantic fiction.
