How the Irish Saved Civilization
"How to save Irish civilization"?

Can someone give me an explanation that there are detailed in the first chapter of "How the Irish civilization Saved by Thomas Cahill?

I must say I'm a little disappointed that no one can answer it! On the other hand, nothing do not know about "white history", but apparently assumed: (Do not try to be racist, but I really do not understand why and no there a month, "White History", if the whole world has an opportunity to learn from our roots!

In this delightful and illuminating look into a crucial but little-known “hinge” of history, Thomas Cahill takes us to the “island of saints and scholars,” the Ireland of St. Patrick and the Book of Kells. Here, far from the barbarian despoliation of the continent, monks and scribes laboriously, lovingly, even playfully preserved the West’s written treasury. When stability returned in Europ…

“The perfect St. Patrick’s Day gift, and a book in the best tradition of popular history — the untold story of Ireland’s role in maintaining Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe. Every year millions of Americans celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, but they may not be aware of how great an influence St. Patrick was on the subsequent history of civilization. Not only did he bring Christianity to Ireland, he instilled a sense of literacy and learning that would create the conditions that allowed Ireland to become “the isle of saints and scholars” — and thus preserve Western culture while Europe was being overrun by barbarians. In this entertaining and compelling narrative, Thomas Cahill tells the story of how Europe evolved from the classical age of Rome to the medieval era. Without Ireland, the transition could not have taken place. Not only did Irish monks and scribes maintain the very record of Western civilization — copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost — they brought their uniquely Irish world-view to the task. As Cahill delightfully illustrates, so much of the liveliness we associate with medieval culture has its roots in Ireland. When the seeds of culture were replanted on the European continent, it was from Ireland that they were germinated. In the tradition of Barbara Tuchman’s “A Distant Mirror, How The Irish Saved Civilization” reconstructs an era that few know about but which is central to understanding our past and our cultural heritage. But it conveys its knowledge with a winking wit that aptly captures the sensibility of the unsung Irish who relaunched civilization.”

A cultural history of the customs, fashions, and figures of gay life in the twentieth and the early twenty-first centuries-and how they have changed us for the better. How the Homosexuals Saved Civilization presents a broad yet incisive look at how an unusual “immigrant” group, homosexual men, has influenced mainstream American society and has, in many ways, become mainstream itself. From the way camp, irony, and the gay aesthetic have become part of our national sensibility to the undeniable effect the gay cognoscenti have had on media and the arts, Cathy Crimmins examines how gay men have changed the concepts of community, family, sex, and fashion.

Veteran Boston goaltender Jean Pierre Savard sees stardom and the money it brings as fate’s make-up call for a life in which he lost his father, his wife, and most of his self confidence for anything not involving saves or sex. Now late in his career, Savard and his teammate and best friend, Cam Carter, are trying to fulfill their boyhood dreams of winning a Stanley Cup before they retire. A surprise late-season trade pits the friends against each other in a playoff series both could lose but only one can win. Saved takes the reader into the rinks, dressing rooms, planes, buses, and hotels that are the backdrop to the long grind of an NHL season. That grind is made bearable by the likes of players such as Bruno Govoni, whose cell phone ring tone is the orgasmic moaning of a porn star Loretta (Lash) LaRue; of Phil “Flipside” Palmer, the only person besides the Kingsmen who knows all the words to “Louie Louie” or that “Child of the Moon” was the flipside of the Rolling Stones’ “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”; and team enforcer Kevin Quigley, who claims all his fights are retaliations, “but sometimes I retaliate first.”Most sports novels bring the game to the reader. Saved brings the reader to the game.Praise for Jack Falla “Falla’s graphic portrayal of a violent sport (and its colorful players) and his insider’s view of how hockey is played, coached, and officiated is exciting, surefire entertainment.” — Publishers Weekly on Saved “Literary hot chocolate that will warm your heart.”—Robert Lipsyte, The New York Times, on Home Ice “The best hockey book ever.”—John Buccigross, ESPN sportscaster, on Home Ice “Possibly the best hockey book since Ken Dryden’s The Game.” —Toronto Globe and Mail, on Home Ice

How My Breasts Saved the World


How My Breasts Saved the World


$3.98


Breast is best" in the 21st century; research supports breast milk as the best food for babies. But there’s little said about the realities of nursing for the nursing mother. Is nursing an innate calling or a learned skill? Lisa Wood Shapiro assumes that she will be a natural-after all, hadn’t Brooke Shields put baby to breast without a hitch in The Blue Lagoon? Surely after spending nine months gripped by labor fears, a brand new mom could count on the simple joy of seeing her newborn latch on and drink. Turns out, it’s not that simple. Filled with panic and convinced that her breasts will explode, Lisa finally reaches out for help. Two lactation consultants, one support group, and a week’s worth of cold cabbage leaves later, she learns how to survive-and prosper-as a nursing mom. In this laugh-out-loud book, Lisa depicts her struggles and triumphs with humor and humility. She offers advice, addresses rumors, and breaks taboos with the candor of a best friend and the voice of experience. Among her discoveries: Breastfeeding doesn’t really burn as many calories as running a marathon every day; the "Brest Friend" pillow really is a mother’s best friend; new moms fib about nursing more than money or sex. And manual pumping? Forget about it! How My Breasts Saved the World is a must-read for every expectant and new mother. Sure, saving the world might be a lofty claim, but civilization was built on breast milk. And if a reader learns anything from this book, it’s that a nursing mother is always right.

Thousands of years ago, humans formed a society to assist each other-just as elephants, dolphins, and many other less intelligent animals did. That was the idea. But that idea did not materialize, and because of this our society has been a failure. In Civilization, author Anthony Ayala presents a thorough and thoughtful discussion of why society has failed. Born in Havana, Cuba, in 1930, Ayala witnessed firsthand the devastating effects of a failing society-a society that doesn”t protect from sudden death or harm at the hands of associates. It is a society that doesn”t enhance life and make life longer because of the presence of a powerful, but invisible enemy. In Civilization, Ayala provides an overview of how this invisible enemy affects how civilizations function, why civilization has caused more problems than it has solved, who is responsible for its past failures, and who is responsible for its future breakdown.

HOCKEY¿From the Buddhist concept meaning Key to Happiness and Chilly Serenity during Bloody Brawls and Melees. How Hockey Saved the World is the greatest, if only, hockey protest book ever written. It is the often true story of how a middle-aged, overweight American got off the couch long enough to lose weight and learn to play hockey in order to find a magic puck that would end the NHL lockout, unseat President George W. Bush and end the Iraq War. This funny, wry and charming account of a man obsessed is a handbook on how to survive without professional sports while becoming a better parent, achieving world peace and playing hockey, however poorly. After reading How Hockey Saved the World, and seeing the error of my ways, I will resign the Office of the Presidency effective January 15, 2009.¿President George W. Bush Charns straps on a pair of beaten-up ice skates to take on the NHL¿and the American Way. The author is many things to many people: a left-wing lawyer working for the good of the people of North Carolina; husband to his saintly wife Tucker; father to a gaggle of small children; and a vehement critic of the current White House. Most of all, he’s a dedicated hockey fan, a condition that he readily admits makes him half-crazy. The author¿s subversive wit and genuine belief in the game¿s magic are oddly persuasive. An amiable meditation to warm even the iciest hearts. -Kirkus Discoveries

Who Will Be Saved?


Who Will Be Saved?


$13.98


"Who will be saved?" is almost always a question about them, and rarely about us. Thinking itself wrapped securely in the everlasting arms, the church has spent much of its history speculating on whether God will allow anyone else to join the party. One of today’s most respected theologians contends that the church should stop asking "Who will be saved?" and ask instead "How is God calling me to participate in the redemption of the world?" Who Will Be Saved? draws on Wesleyan tradition and the teachings of Karl Barth to examine carefully the biblical teaching on the reach and scope of God’s salvation while enabling readers to explore and reach their own conclusions on the question of whether all will, in the end, be saved.

The Stunning Hidden Interconnections Between Microbes and Humanity.  . AD 452: Attila the Hun stands ready to sack Rome. No one can stop him–but he walks away. A miracle? No…dysentery. Microbes saved the Roman Empire. Nearly a millennium later, the microbes of the Black Death ended the Middle Ages, making possible the Renaissance, western democracy, and the scientific revolution. Soon after, microbes ravaged the Americas, paving the way for their European conquest.  . Again and again, microbes have shaped our health, our genetics, our history, our culture, our politics, even our religion and ethics. This book reveals much that scientists and cultural historians have learned about the pervasive interconnections between infectious microbes and humans. It also considers what our ongoing fundamental relationship with infectious microbes might mean for the future of the human species.  . The “good side” of history’s worst epidemics. The surprising debt we owe to killer diseases.  . Where diseases came from…. …and where they may be going.  . Children of pestilence: disease and civilization. From Egypt to Mexico, the Romans to Attila the Hun.  . STDs, sexual behavior, and culture. How microbes may shape cultural cycles of puritanism and promiscuity

The Genius of America: How the Constitution Saved Our Country--and Why It Can Again


The Genius of America: How the Constitution Saved Our Country–and Why It Can Again


$2.68


An inspiring and revelatory look at the document that has made our country the longest surviving democracy in the history of civilization: The Constitution of the United States.ÿThe history of democracy is a history of failure. The United States holds the record at 230 years, yet the document at the nation’s center is one that we take for granted. Due to a combination of heightened frustration, moves to skirt the constitutional process, and a widespread disconnect between the people and their constitutional “conscience,” Lane and Oreskes warn us our system is at risk. ÿThe Genius of America looks at the Constitution’s history relative to this current crisis. Starting with the eleven years between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution’s adoption, they show how our near failure to create a loosely knit nation led the framers to devise a system that takes human nature into account. Next they provide examples of how we have weathered crises in the past, from early attempts at political tyranny to the Civil War. Finally they turn to two periods, one of great consensus (from Roosevelt’s New Deal through Johnson’s Great Society) and another of division (from Reagan through George W. Bush), both of which demonstrate the Constitution’s effectiveness. ÿIn the final assessment, Lane and Oreskes challenge us to let this great document work as it was designed-in times of change and stasis. They hold our leaders accountable, calling on them to stop fanning the flames of division. And while evenhanded in its presentation, The Genius of America reminds us the Constitution is our national glue.
