Proto: How One Ancient Language Went Global
'The fascinating story of ancient words ... new revelations await' The Guardian 'A truly extraordinary detective story' Matt Ridley, author of The Evolution of Everything ________________________________
Pale Rider
Read the devastating story of the Spanish flu - the twentieth century's greatest killer – and discover what it can teach us about the current Covid-19 pandemic. 'Both a saga of tragedies and a detective story... Pale Rider is not just an excavation but a reimagining of the past' Guardian With a death toll of between 50 and 100 million people and a global reach, the Spanish flu of 1918–1920 was the greatest human disaster, not only of the twentieth century, but possibly in all of recorded history. And yet, in our popular conception it exists largely as a footnote to World War I. In Pale Rider, Laura Spinney recounts the story of an overlooked pandemic, tracing it from Alaska to Brazil, from Persia to Spain, and from South Africa to Odessa. She shows how the pandemic was shaped by the interaction of a virus and the humans it encountered; and how this devastating natural experiment put both the ingenuity and the vulnerability of humans to the test. Laura Spinney demonstrates that the Spanish flu was as significant – if not more so – as two world wars in shaping the modern world; in disrupting, and often permanently altering, global politics, race relations, family structures, and thinking across medicine, religion and the arts. ‘Weaves together global history and medical science to great effect ... Riveting.’ Sunday Times
Storizen Magazine May 2025 | Dr. Yossi Chalamish
Welcome to the May 2025 edition of Storizen Magazine! This month, we venture into uncharted territory—not the kind marked by maps or borders, but the landscapes of the inner self. With our theme "Beyond Bullets: Battles Within," we invite you to explore the silent wars we fight every day—within our minds, our emotions, and our identities. Our cover story, "Unlock the Mind’s Blueprint with 'The Brain Code'," features Dr. Yossi Chalamish, who takes us on a fascinating journey into the neural networks that shape our thoughts, habits, and decisions. As the world grows louder, the power to decode our inner workings becomes not just a tool for self-awareness but a necessity for resilience. In keeping with this introspective theme, we present 45 thought-provoking book reviews—each one offering a unique lens into human complexity. From psychological thrillers to heartfelt memoirs and transformative self-help titles, this issue is curated to inspire reflection, healing, and growth. As you flip through these pages, may you find strength in your vulnerabilities, clarity in your questions, and courage in your inner battles. After all, the fiercest wars are often waged not on battlefields, but in the chambers of the human heart and mind.
