Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heritage From the Old World In the, treatment of causes leading up to great historical events emphasis has been placed upon the growth of sentiment as the motive agent behind the development of such events. Scenes and situations are pictured as results of such sentiment and not merely as detached episodes. History is life as it is lived. I t is dynamic. Historic events have depended upon prevailing ideas. The text has tried to catch and transmit the spirit of those ideas. Even if there followed no immediate event, the event was, as we may say, assembling itself. History has both form and content. The content or idea finally shapes itself in form or event. In every instance where it is possible past historic movements have been linked with the present, showing either contrast or similarity, but above all showing how the influence of such movements has reached and enriched our own times.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Old World an European Background to the Story of Our Country All of old-vvorld history is the New World's heritage; no historian dare assert in regard to the most remote and seemingly insignificant occur rence of ancient record that it had no influence upon the course of later human events. But there are certain events connected with earlier human progress that have had a direct and easily traceable influence upon our New - World destinies; a knowledge of these is essential to a full under standing and enjoyment of the story of our country. A committee of eight eminent teachers, report ing upon the study of American history in our schools, has declared that too much emphasis is placed upon the Atlantic Ocean as a barrier be tween the history of the New World and that of the Old. This book is written to meet that criticism. It is not a condensed general his tory. It is, in reality, the story of our country carried beyond and behind that wall habitually erected by earlier school historians upon the borders of the Atlantic.

Download or read book Old World Empires written by Ilhan Niaz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-26 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a sweeping historical survey of the origins, development and nature of state power. It demonstrates that Eurasia is home to a dominant tradition of arbitrary rule mediated through military, civil and ecclesiastical servants and a marginal tradition of representative and responsible government through autonomous institutions. The former tradition finds expression in hierarchically organized and ideologically legitimated continental bureaucratic states while the latter manifests itself in the state of laws. In recent times, the marginal tradition has gained in popularity and has led to continental bureaucratic states attempting to introduce democratic and constitutional reforms. These attempts have rarely altered the actual manner in which power is exercised by the state and its elites given the deeper and historically rooted experience of arbitrary rule. Far from being remote, the arbitrary culture of power that emerged in many parts of the world continues to shape the fortunes of states. To ignore this culture of power and the historical circumstances that have shaped it comes at a high price, as indicated by the ongoing democratic recession and erosion of liberal norms within states that are democracies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As someone who has spent forty years in psychology with a long-standing interest in evolution, I'll just assimilate Howard Bloom's accomplishment and my amazement."-DAVID SMILLIE, Visiting Professor of Zoology, Duke University In this extraordinary follow-up to the critically acclaimed The Lucifer Principle, Howard Bloom-one of today's preeminent thinkers-offers us a bold rewrite of the evolutionary saga. He shows how plants and animals (including humans) have evolved together as components of a worldwide learning machine. He describes the network of life on Earth as one that is, in fact, a "complex adaptive system," a global brain in which each of us plays a sometimes conscious, sometimes unknowing role. and he reveals that the World Wide Web is just the latest step in the development of this brain. These are theories as important as they are radical. Informed by twenty years of interdisciplinary research, Bloom takes us on a spellbinding journey back to the big bang to let us see how its fires forged primordial sociality. As he brings us back via surprising routes, we see how our earliest bacterial ancestors built multitrillion-member research and development teams a full 3.5 billion years ago. We watch him unravel the previously unrecognized strands of interconnectedness woven by crowds of trilobites, hunting packs of dinosaurs, feathered flying lizards gathered in flocks, troops of baboons making communal decisions, and adventurous tribes of protohumans spreading across continents but still linked by primitive forms of information networking. We soon find ourselves reconsidering our place in the world. Along the way, Bloom offers us exhilarating insights into the strange tricks of body and mind that have organized a variety of life forms: spiny lobsters, which, during the Paleozoic age, participated in communal marching rituals; and bees, which, during the age of dinosaurs, conducted collective brainwork. This fascinating tour continues on to the sometimes brutal subculture wars that have spurred the growth of human civilization since the Stone Age. Bloom shows us how culture shapes our infant brains, immersing us in a matrix of truth and mass delusion that we think of as reality. Global Brain is more than just a brilliantly original contribution to the ongoing debate on the inner workings of evolution. It is a "grand vision," says the eminent evolutionary biologist David Sloan Wilson, a work that transforms our very view of who we are and why.
