Histoire
Fascinated by our pervasive terror of dead bodies, mortician Caitlin Doughty set out to discover how other cultures care for their dead. In rural Indonesia, she observes a man clean and dress his grandfather's mummified body. Grandpa's mummy has lived in the family home for two years, where the family has maintained a warm and respectful relationship. She meets Bolivian natitas (cigarette-smoking, wish-granting human skulls) and introduces us to a Japanese kotsuage.

An absolutely fascinating, at times shocking what other cultures do with their bodies of the deceased – look at the cycle of life and how different cultures treat the body after death. An absolute adventure of awe & disbelief, that you must have a listen to!

Histoire
In The Blank Slate, Steven Pinker, one of the world's leading experts on language and the mind, explores the idea of human nature and its moral, emotional, and political colorings. With characteristic wit, lucidity, and insight, Pinker argues that the dogma that the mind has no innate traits, denies our common humanity and our individual preferences, replaces objective analyses of social problems with feel-good slogans, and distorts our understanding of politics, violence, parenting, and the arts.

While I am normally full of all sorts of remarks and unique anecdotes… Writing this review has perplexed me for the last hour – how to describe this book…? Words simply do not do justice to, nor can they describe, the importance and the impact of, the hidden truths so eloquently researched and described in this book. Not knowing this information will be perilous to your own personal, as well as your family genetics, survival... 😱

Évalué le: 2019-05-10
This is a spectacular, incredibly researched, and very well developed book! I was never a video gamer, and so was skeptical of what this book would provide me with… It blew my mind! Basically every major brand, and name of computer people from start ups throughout the 1960s to current day, and how hames relate to the entire functioning of our current society,… Is all contained within this book. Read this book with your ears, to discover the pleasures and awarenesses of societal development, business, economics, politics, The game that Steve Jobs played that led to the creation of MS-DOS,and the world of games and fun – everything that I didn’t know I missed out on, but now can go hunting down to relive again! An awesome auditory adventure! A feast for the ears, and that video screen of memories inside your head!!! 12/10

Histoire
In this masterpiece, Solzhenitsyn has orchestrated thousands of incidents and individual histories into one narrative of unflagging power and momentum. Written in a tone that encompasses Olympian wrath, bitter calm, savage irony, and sheer comedy, it combines history, autobiography, documentary, and political analysis as it examines in its totality the Soviet apparatus of repression from its inception following the October Revolution of 1917.

You don't know yourself, nor humanity, until you have witnessed the brutality that these "civilized" and "advanced" societies purveyed upon each other... and that we are on a similar "history repeating" path, once again.

Histoire
This second volume in Solzhenitsyn’s narrative chronicles the appalling inhumanity of the Soviets' "Destructive-Labor Camps" and the fate of prisoners in them—felling timber, building canals and railroads, and mining gold without equipment or adequate food or clothing, and subject always to the caprices of the camp authorities. Most tragic of all is the life of the women prisoners and the luckless children they bear.

Histoire
In this final volume of a towering work that is both literary masterpiece and living memorial to the untold millions of Soviet martyrs, Solzhenitsyn's epic narrative moves to its astounding and unforseen climax. We now see that this great cathedral of a book not only commemorates those massed victims but celebrates the unquenched spirit of resistance that flickered and then burst into flame even in Stalin's "special camps."
