In all of Roman history there was never a more turbulent year than A.D. 69, the ill-omened "Year of the Three Emperors". By some miracle, the greatest historian of the age, Tacitus, was able to chronicle those momentous events in a work he called The History. In its pages are some of the most memorable events of Roman history described in some of the most intensely passionate prose ever devised.

The Annals, Part 2 picks up in the year A.D. 32 with the increasingly menacing and tyrannical behavior of Tiberius. With hundreds murdered or driven to suicide and many more in exile, Tiberius descends steadily into growing lust and debauchery on his private estate on the isle of Capri. Overseas, Rome is victorious in her struggle with Parthia, and as Tiberius is being smothered to death in A.D. 37 by Macro, peace at last comes to the eastern frontier.

After living in the White House for four years, in November 1980, Jimmy Carter lost the presidential election to Republican Ronald Reagan in a landslide. Carter's unpopularity helped Republicans win seats in the House and gain control over the Senate for the first time in over 20 years. The Reagan Era had begun, ushering in a generation of conservative power. Democrats blamed Carter for this catastrophe and spent the next decade pretending he had never existed.

Les fake news no són un fenomen nou: els governs, els partits polítics, els mitjans de comunicació i les grans corporacions --o els monopolis d'informació equivalents en cada època-- sempre n'han fet ús interessat. No és sospitós, doncs, que les polítiques i les reformes normatives que s'estan proposant per combatre-les criminalitzin les noves tecnologies i, en canvi, no facin el mateix amb els que s'han dedicat a produir notícies falses des de sempre?

Este es un libro que no dejará indiferente al lector. Cualquiera sea su idea sobre la trascendencia, se verá frente a frente con el cuestionamiento a la estructura de obediencia que hay detrás de la idea de un paraíso perdido. Hágase Tu Voluntad cuestiona a toda la estructura de poder político y del socialismo en particular que, en su afán de reproducir ese paraíso en la tierra, ha construido un infierno. El capitalismo es, para el autor, la vida en la tierra tal como es, sin deudas.

Intellectuals and Race is a radical book in the original sense - one that goes to the root of the problem. The role of intellectuals in racial strife is explored in an international context that puts the American experience in a wholly new light. The book explores the incentives, the visions, and the rationales that drive intellectuals at the highest levels to conclusions that have often turned out to be counterproductive and even disastrous, not only for particular racial or ethnic groups but for societies as a whole.

This explosive new audiobook challenges many of the long-held assumptions about blacks, about Jews, about Germans and Nazis, about slavery, and about education.

This book is about the great moral issues underlying many of the headline-making political controversies of our times. It is not a comforting book but a book about disturbing and dangerous trends. The Quest for Cosmic Justice shows how confused conceptions of justice end up promoting injustice, how confused conceptions of equality end up promoting inequality, and how the tyranny of social visions prevents many people from confronting the actual consequences of their own beliefs and policies.

When parents send their children off to college, Mom and Dad hope they'll return more cultivated, knowledgeable, and astute - able to see issues from all points of view. But, according to Ben Shapiro, there's only one view allowed on most college campuses: a rabid brand of liberalism that must be swallowed hook, line, and sinker.

«إنَّ الإنسانَ لَيتطلَّعُ إلى عصرٍ ذهبيٍّ تَسودُ فيهِ الحريةُ والسلامُ والعدلُ والحبُّ الأَخوي، عصرٍ لا تَسُلُّ فيهِ أمَّةٌ على أمَّةٍ سَيفًا ولا يُقاتِلُ الإنسانُ فيهِ أخاهُ الإنسان، عصرٍ يُؤدِّي فيهِ تطوُّرُ كلِّ أمَّةٍ وتقدُّمُها إلى تَطوُّرِ الأُممِ الأُخرى جميعًا وتقدُّمِها، عصرٍ يَعرِفُ الناسُ فيه جميعًا ربَّهُم حقَّ المعرفةِ ويَغمُرُ عُقولَهم العلمُ ببارِيهم كما تَغمُرُ المياهُ البحار.»

"Securing America’s Borders and Putting Americans First” is a bullet-point scorecard of what the Trump Administration says it achieved in its first year. On immigration, it claims negative net migration in 2025, more than 2.6 million removals plus two million “self-deportations,” sharply lower illegal crossings, and reduced fentanyl trafficking, supported by detention over release, renewed wall construction, visa revocations, and tougher actions against cartel and terrorism-linked entrants.

In Gaetano Mosca's groundbreaking work, The Ruling Class (originally published as Elementi di Scienza Politica in 1896), the Italian political philosopher shatters the illusions of pure democracy by revealing a timeless truth: in every society, from ancient civilizations to modern nations, power is always concentrated in the hands of an organized minority–the ruling class.

This audiobook consists of two parts: Classical German Philosophy and 19th and Early 20th Century Philosophy.

In this vivid exploration, philosophy becomes more than abstract theory—it’s an inspiring tale of courage, discovery, and the relentless pursuit of meaning.

Las señales estaban a la vista, no solo en las calles sino en todos y cada uno de los informes de organismos internacionales. No verlas era un acto voluntarioso de ocultamiento de la realidad. Son más que simples dolores de crecimiento asociados a la modernización de Chile, tan exitosa en algunos aspectos, como el combate a la pobreza o la liberalización de la vida social.
