From Primate to Politicians by Juan Manuel Muñoz

 

 

"From Primates to Politicians" is a fascinating journey between the animal side of the human species and politicians. It explores the reason for many human behaviors based on the evolution of species, and the resources necessary for life. The book explores the bowels of politics: an art understood and dominated by economic power, and expert manipulators of political marketing, to put together pieces of a dynamic, changing puzzle of infinite size. The content is divided into three parts. A first part, in which the author reviews the concepts of primatology, evolution, and the power relations between living beings. In the second part, the evolution of human societies, and the foundations of conservatism and liberalism, are explored. This leads to propose: “the evolutionary theory of politics.” To conclude the work, the author closes with the analysis of multiple current events and raises some predictions about the global political environment.

Three bodies in the span of twenty-four hours …

In Weeping Rock, South Dakota—a small town crippled by racism, drugs, and violence— Sheriff’s Deputy Liam Matthews has his work cut out for him when he steps in to take over the duties of sheriff from his father, who for far too long has turned a blind eye to certain crimes for what he says is the overall good of the town.

Coming under scrutiny for hiring a Lakota to fill his position as deputy, things quickly go from bad to worse for Liam when the body of retired pro-baseball player Hector Ramirez, who had recently returned home to coach ball at his high school alma mater, is found floating in Crow’s Foot Lake. Hector’s bludgeoned corpse is no sooner on its way to the M.E.’s office in Rapid City, however, when the partially clothed body of a young girl is discovered in a clearing in the snow.

With two seemingly unrelated murders, Liam is judged at every turn of his investigation by the local population, Hector’s reality TV star wife Kiki Grey, and his own father. Upon uncovering a tangled web of desperation, lies, and greed, the mounting pressure inside Liam to do the right thing becomes jaded when the skeletal remains of a third victim is found in a submerged car, bringing to the forefront a long-buried secret of his own—and threatening his already troubled marriage to Olivia—as his past and present collide.

 

Kiss Her Goodbye: A Houston Cash Novel by Harvey Burgess

 

 

 

Houston Cash is an ex-cop turned private investigator who doesn't expect his life to be extraordinary, and that's just how he likes it. But that's rarely how it seems to work out for him. His cases tend to take him places where he has to employ his skills, his sense of humor, and his sense of right and wrong to maximum effect to solve the problems of the interesting people who walk through his door. Though his network of friends and contacts help him navigate the labyrinths he encounters, it almost always boils down to Houston's own abilities to see a case through to the end. When Houston makes the acquaintance of a bank executive's wife, he finds himself thrust in a world of money, sex, murder, and double-crosses; it's just another day for a detective (or so it seems). But this woman is about to lead him on a path of twists and turns with an unexpected finale, and not everyone survives. Can Houston's instincts help him stay out of too much of the trouble she represents?

Decameron 57: The Dual Nature of Silence di Sàndor Halmosi #tendenza #te...

"Pelle e ossa" di Aleksandr Malinin a cura di Paolo Galvagni ( I Quaderni del Bardo Edizioni)

 

 

Nel libro di Aleksandr Malinin il sentimento si emancipa dall’individuo per diventare ritmo. Il titolo, oltre a condensare una descrizione, indica chiaramente la ricerca: «ossa e pietre, /tutto ciò di cui siamo ricchi». Il soggetto poetico si assottiglia, minuscolo «come un formaggino», «Rosso e secco», viene ricordato attraverso le tracce adipose: «Esca da me questo grasso, chiamato ansia, chiamato ardore, definito spavento... colando su un piatto vuoto». L’intervento poetico consente al soggetto, «noi tali», di perdere peso attraverso situazioni quotidiane: «usciremo senza alcun battito, /durante la tosse». Non si tratta di poesia funeraria, l’autore si appella, al contrario, all’«abbondanza» del reale. L’attenzione alla fisicità porta a collegamenti edilizi inaspettati: «Si scosta dall’anima la nuova carta da parati, /e non c’è nulla sotto di essa, /una muratura sconnessa... stringiti a questa fessura, come allo spioncino:/è così buio nel tuo corpo». Il pensiero sorveglia non solo la metrica ma anche le domande: «Il bosco è guasto, il suo odore è infuocato. / Ma ciò che brucia non attrae, /invoca. / Che cosa sarà al suo posto - /difficile immaginarlo. Terra incolta, fumo?». Gli argomenti («diventati cattivi, / immangiabili») suggeriscono una cadenza, un senso («danzino le erbe, /e le persone, come ghiande») e l’immaginazione assale il poeta «pregustando la fine del mondo». Bisogna amare la poesia per coglierla, è un’allergia speciale: «I sogni sono la lontananza, /si possono confondere con i polloni». Con qualche piacevole seduzione barocca, la poesia di Malinin ci risparmia la retorica e l’espressionismo: «gli iris, iridescenti, /si smorzano comunque. / Finché non resta di essi l’unico, azzurro, /qualunque». La sua poesia «ronza, come un’ape/sul bordo di una poesia, /che è il giardino». Dissepolta, ristagna nel «Blu chiarificato, quasi azzurro, /la profondità sopra di me, /fa’ luce fin là, là è ancora buio, /qui c’è già l’amore». Ci parla della fine: «Che cosa ci attende prima della morte:/il tè opaco delle bustine, una limonata evaporata». Il tempo coincide con l’appetito («il tempo è sazio») e materializza i morti («più neri del tè»): «dice terra, terra, /che ti interessa di me, /io sono nella mia mente, sono tutta in me, /a che mi serve il corpo, /lo stelo, /una pista d’atterraggio».La voce, «defluita, quasi sedimentosa», senza cariche ideologiche, «Si dilata e si stringe» fino a rendere «il buio» qualcosa di attraversabile, «sensibile alla luce... la visibilità di me». Nella nervatura del testo si scorgono corrispondenze tra il quotidiano e il siderale: un esercizio frattale del linguaggio. C’è Gogol e il suo battaglione di anime morte in questa sensibilità convincente: «come incaricata per la luce:/l’uomo è l’angusta strettoia (Alberto Pellegatta)

Ilnoblet Elmer and the Alien Water Thieves by Kathryn Rose Newey (Author)

 

 

 

Like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for kids! Readers will love the "myriad of alien cultures", and the "unique take on the humans vs. extraterrestrials trope" in this adventurous science fiction mystery to stop aliens from stealing planet Earth's water.

Packed full of science, math and language skills, "this book presents an engaging and entertaining learning experience. There’s plenty of action to keep kids interested, and... a fantastic message about fitting in."

Ilnoblet Elmer and the Alien Water Thieves is a sci-fi story with a difference for middle graders, young teens and middle schoolers.

Ilnoblet Elmer is an ordinary boy. Except for one thing; he’s from another planet – and his family, friends and teachers don’t know. This alien superhero has lots of adventures trying to defeat tricky and sticky aliens, including the Mootilokygogrifies (that’s a mouthful to say - and they’re even worse when hiding in your garden shed). All in between going to school and handing in his homework on time!

The story has fun references to science, water, numbers, space travel, planets, extraterrestrials, and some special words and numbers that have an interesting effect on aliens! There’s even a glossary to help with understanding Ilnoblet's Gapitonian language – you’ll be speaking it in no time!

"Science fiction readers who want a little fun with their science would enjoy this book... This adventure story is fit for both kids and kids at heart... With great pleasure, I rate Ilnoblet Elmer and the Alien Water Thieves 4 out of 4 stars." - Review by OnlineBookClub.org.

The author Ludovico De Bonis, with his book, tried to combine his passion (Madonna) with his cultural background, as an expert in Communication and Media Analyst. What makes his work outstanding compared to other works about the artist, is that none of them has neither analyzed the phenomenon from the point of view of the audience, nor focused on the artist's fandom, on her complex identity (as a woman, as a mother and as an international icon) and on the discovery that the performer artist Madonna, according to various sociologists and experts in the sector, is the emblem of popular culture.
