I have often wondered why Latin America has lagged so far behind the United States.Haven't Latin Americans produced brilliant minds, as have their northern relatives?There are those who suggest that it would be the fault of the Catholic Church, which is monopolizing and has always instilled the concept that wealth is something negative, anti-Christian... which is ironic if we look at the example given historically by the popes. We must recognize that in this sense there is a clear difference with the United States, where the different Protestant currents not only allowed the search for personal wealth, but also encouraged it.But would that be enough?If we think of wars as a cause, both the north and the continental south have suffered numerous conflicts, although it is necessary to observe that, while many Latin American revolutions and wars served the personal interests of warlords and dictators, with a few exceptions, in North America wars sought to solve problems of a national character, leaving aside small, petty interests of some ambitious leader. The United States opened itself to the Industrial Revolution from the beginning, while its southern cousins bled to death in useless revolutions... although this is not completely true, if we look at Paraguay, a development aborted by European interests. Perhaps there is a detail that we tend to put aside. The same powers that overthrew Paraguay tried to interrupt the growth of the United States, but did not succeed and Uncle Sam rose firmly, preserving his independence.In short, we can suggest a hundred theories, and the debate would be infinitely prolonged, without reaching any conclusion... something very Latin, by the way.So, let's be practical.I have prepared this chronology, which allows us to know in detail the history of the continent, without manipulating facts or figures.Simply read and compare, it is the best way to arrive at results close to reality; you will see that in the end, those from the north and their cousins from the south are not so different, as the preconceptions of many historians claim. Latinos have always considered the North as an AMBITIOUS GIANT, while they consider us inhabitants of BANANA REPUBLICS.Well, we are going to use those names without fear or shame, maybe in that way we will get closer to the truth.

Balogun Ojetade, "Surviving the Urban Apocalypse: A Guide for Afrikan Warriors"
English | ISBN: 1530809371 | 2016 | 236 pages | EPUB | 465 KB
Imagine the end of the world as we know it has come. How did it happen? A global financial collapse? A nuclear holocaust? A natural disaster? An asteroid strike? A highly infectious viral pandemic? Scientists at the University of Chicago opening a crack in the atmosphere that releases dark matter into the world? There are many ways the Apocalypse can occur. Part of being prepared is your ability to answer some very simple questions: What skills and supplies will you need to survive? Where will you stay or go? Who will be with you? How will you rebuild after it all falls down? Many believe running to the forest and living off the land is the solution. However, the reality is most of us live in cities and will be trapped in those same cities once roads become impassable or are patrolled by the military, thieves and rapists or hordes of starving, desperate people. You had better learn to survive in an urban environment or you and those you love will die...or worse. This Afrikan Warriors' Guide to SURVIVING THE URBAN APOCALYPSE puts you smack dab in the middle of The End - a global crisis has decimated most of the world's population; all utilities are turned off; the world has become even more brutal and dangerous than it was before The End. Once you are immersed in the world that WILL one day come, this book gives you the tools that will help you survive it. Along with "Afrikan Martial Arts: Discovering the Warrior Within," "The Afrikan Warriors' Bible," "The Afrikan Warriors' Guide to Defeating Bullies & Trolls," SURVIVING THE URBAN APOCALYPSE is a must have in your self-defense and survival toolkit.

Sufferers and Healers: The Experience of Illness in Seventeenth-Century England By Lucinda McCray Beier
2015 | 326 Pages | ISBN: 113818263X | PDF | 30 MB
Lucinda McCray Beier's remarkable book, first published in 1987, enters the world of illness in seventeenth-century England, exploring what it was like to be either a sufferer or a healer. A wide spectrum of healers existed, ranging between the housewife, with her simple herbal preparations, local cunning-folk and bonestters, travelling healers, and formally accredited surgeons and physicians. Basing her study upon personal accounts written by sufferers and healers, Beier examines the range of healers and therapies available, describes the disorders people suffered from, and indicates the various ways sufferers dealt with their ailments. She includes several case-studies of healers and sufferers, and looks in detail at the ways in which women's identities and duties were associated with childbirth, illness and healing. This title will be of interest to students of history.
