Frederick Bastiat dismantles Socialism, the Nanny State, the Welfare State, Pro-Business Cronyism, and all the other forms of government interference in people's lives. He destroys the perverse logic of the Do-Gooders who want to help one group or another because, somehow, it's the fair thing to do. Bastiat shows that the result of all this protection and benevolence is to make people poorer and less free. His lessons and logic are up to date and powerful. Amazingly, the book originally came out in 1850! The Law is a quick read for both the beginner and the neophyte... and one you'll choose to re-read.

A Comprehensive Overview of the Past, Present, and Future of Money Broken Money explores the history of money through the lens of technology. Politics can affect things temporarily and locally, but technology is what drives things forward globally and permanently. The book's goal is for the reader to walk away with a deep understanding of money and monetary history, both in terms of theoretical foundations and in terms of practical implications. From shells to gold, from papyrus bills of exchange to central banks, and from the invention of the telegraph to the creation of Bitcoin, Lyn Alden walks the reader through the emergence of new technologies that have shaped what we use as money over the ages. And beyond that, Alden explores the concept of what money is at its very foundation to give the reader a framework to analyze and compare different types of monetary technologies and monetary theories. The book also takes a distinctively human look at how money impacts the lives of real people, and how new monetary technologies shape the power structures within society. In the modern era, energy abundance and technological enhancements have broadly improved human well-being, but the global monetary system has been slow to keep up. There are over 160 active currencies in the world, each with a local monopoly over its own country, and with little or no acceptance elsewhere. Many of them are rapidly diluted, which continually devalues the savings and the wages of the billions of people who live and work within those jurisdictions. Being born in the "wrong" country makes saving money far harder than it needs to be. Nigeria has a population of over 200 million people and has averaged 13% annualized inflation over the past decade. Egypt cut its currency in half relative to the dollar twice over the past decade, which instantly devalued the savings and wages of its 100 million citizens. Dozens of countries have experienced at least triple-digit year-over-year inflation within the past four decades, including Brazil that outright hyperinflated in the 1990s while it was the fifth most populous country in the world. Europe and Japan had $18 trillion worth of negative-yielding bonds in 2019, right before a wave of inflation wiped their purchasing power away. In 2021, the chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve dismissed the idea that the sharp rise in the money supply from the pandemic stimulus would lead to price inflation. By 2022, as major inflation emerged, the chairman rapidly changed his outlook and tightened monetary policy so quickly that it led to the failure of some of the largest banks in the country. How did we get to this point? Why isn't our money better than this in the 21st century? Broken Money answers these questions by examining the current mix of technology that has led to these limitations, and then explores emerging technologies that may be able to provide us with a monetary system that is fit for the modern era.
FOREWORD BY JAY BHATTACHARYA, MD, PHD You remember the story: some locations did better than others on Covid because those places followed the rules, and others foolishly ignored them. Covid spread was your fault, you science hater! There is precisely zero evidence behind any aspect of this morality play, which is demolished by this book. Diary of a Psychosis is different from all other books on Covid: it traces the development of the government response as it happened, bit by bit, and subjects it to relentless scrutiny: did any of it do any good? It thereby preserves some of the crucial day-to-day details that other chronicles have forgotten. And it's those little details of the bizarre behavior of those years that, presented together, preserve for the reader the full horror of the madness of those dark days. The more people know the information in this book, the harder it will be for the ruling classes to do this to us again.
Douglas uncovers the underlying reasons for lack of consistency and helps traders overcome the ingrained mental habits that cost them money. He takes on the myths of the market and exposes them one by one teaching traders to look beyond random outcomes, to understand the true realities of risk, and to be comfortable with the "probabilities" of market movement that governs all market speculation.

The definitive work on the extraordinary phenomenon of out-of-body experiences, by the founder of the internationally known Monroe Institute. Robert Monroe, a Virginia businessman, began to have experiences that drastically altered his life. Unpredictably, and without his willing it, Monroe found himself leaving his physical body to travel via a "second body" to locales far removed from the physical and spiritual realities of his life. He was inhabiting a place unbound by time or death. Praise for Journeys Out of the Body "Monroe's account of his travels, Journeys Out of the Body, jam-packed with parasitic goblins and dead humans, astral sex, scary trips into mind-boggling other dimensions, and practical tips on how to get out of your body, all told with wry humor, quickly became a cult sensation with its publication in 1971, and has been through many printings. Whatever their 'real' explanation, Monroe's trips made for splendid reading." —Michael Hutchinson, author of Megabrain "Robert Monroe's experiences are probably the most intriguing of any person's of our time, with the possible exception of Carlos Castaneda's." —Joseph Chilton Pierce, author of Magical Child "This book is by a person who's clearly a sensible man and who's trying to tell it like it is. No ego trips. Just a solid citizen who's been 'out' a thousand times now and wants to pass his experiences to others." —The Last Whole Earth Catalog
Have you ever ventured into the intriguing domain of the Apocrypha within the inaugural edition of the 1560 Geneva Bible? A meticulously preserved treasury of ancient religious texts, it comprises a unique anthology of writings excluded from the Hebrew Bible but included in the Septuagint, offering a glimpse into the enigmatic world of antiquity. While not universally accepted as canonical, the Apocrypha yields profound insights into the human experience and matters of faith. The Apocrypha and the Geneva Bible (1560) are both significant entities in the realm of Christian literature and biblical scholarship. Here's a detailed description of each: Apocrypha: The term "Apocrypha" refers to a collection of ancient texts that are not included in the canonical Bible of most Protestant denominations but are part of the biblical canon of the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches. These texts are considered by some to be of historical and religious value but are not considered divinely inspired Scripture by all religious traditions. The Apocrypha includes a diverse range of writings, including historical narratives, wisdom literature, and theological treatises, dating from the intertestamental period (roughly 300 BCE to 100 CE). Some of the most well-known books within the Apocrypha include: Tobit: A narrative about a pious Israelite named Tobit and his son Tobias, which contains elements of wisdom literature and angelic intervention. Judith: The story of a courageous Israelite widow named Judith who saves her people by seducing and beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes. Wisdom of Solomon: A philosophical and theological work attributed to King Solomon, which extols the virtues of wisdom and righteousness. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus): A collection of ethical teachings and maxims attributed to Jesus Ben Sirach, promoting practical wisdom and piety. 1 and 2 Maccabees: Historical accounts of the Maccabean revolt against Hellenistic oppression, detailing the exploits of the Jewish leader Judas Maccabeus and his brothers. These texts provide valuable insights into the beliefs, practices, and historical context of Second Temple Judaism and the early Christian era. Geneva Bible (1560): The Geneva Bible was one of the most influential English translations of the Bible during the Protestant Reformation. It was produced by English Protestant exiles who had fled to Geneva, Switzerland, during the reign of Queen Mary I of England, also known as "Bloody Mary" due to her persecution of Protestant dissenters. The Geneva Bible was first published in 1560 and quickly became popular among English-speaking Protestants for its accuracy, readability, and extensive study aids. Discover the secrets and marvels of this sacred text, which exerted an undeniable influence in its time, surpassing even Coverdale's Bible in popularity and inspiring luminaries such as William Shakespeare. As the first mechanically and serially printed Bible made directly available to the general public, its impact was profound. With its Calvinist origins, this Bible served as the primary text for English Protestantism in the 16th century. It was embraced by notable figures such as William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell and his soldiers (in the soldier's pocket Bible version), John Knox, John Donne, and others, and found its way to America through the Puritan pilgrims aboard the Mayflower.
