In this book, you will read a wide variety of fictional stories on a number of different subjects.

A shocking story of medical brutality perfomed in the name of psychiatric medicine.

What if Freud had left a final paper declaring that morality arises not from the guilt caused by Oedipal desires but, instead, from fear of the unchallengeable authority demonstrated in megalomania? CUNY history professor Rosenfield makes this the premise of his novel debut--and produces a wonderful, chewy, intellectual delight.

She employs Julia Domna as a case study to explore the creation of ideology between the emperor and its subjects.

The excess, folly and splendor of megalomaniacs.

Despite the apparently endless stream of how to and self-help books, one segment of the population still has nowhere to turn for help and guidance: the would-be tyrants and oppressors of the world. The purpose of this book is to remedy that deficiency.If you are one of those individuals who most of all crave the ability to dominate, subjugate, and control your fellow man, this book is for you. But as with many endeavors, satisfying your lust for dominion over others and building a successful tyrannical regime cannot be done with willpower alone. You need a little know-how as well. Depriving others of their freedom and keeping them subservient to your will is both an art and a science, requiring patience and planning. That is where this book comes in; combining your desire to enslave the masses, and the lessons found in this book, you will soon be well on your way to becoming a successful tyrant.(Some individuals with valuable insights into the methodology of tyrants also happen to be pro-freedom advocates, many quotes from whom are included below. Try not to let their appalling anti-oppression attitudes upset you or get in the way of learning something from them.)

In the history of the modern world, there have been few characters more sinister, sadistic, and deeply demented than Baron Ungern-Sternberg. An anti-Semitic fanatic whose penchant for Eastern mysticism and hatred of communists foreshadowed the Nazi scourge that would soon overtake Europe, Ungern- Sternberg conquered Mongolia in 1919 with a ragtag force of White Russians, Siberians, Japanese, and native Mongolians. In the Bloody White Baron, historian and travel writer James Palmer vividly re-creates Ungern-Sternberg's spiral into ever-darker obsessions, while also providing a rare look at the religion and culture of the unfortunate Mongolians he briefly ruled.

Look around your office. Turn on the TV. Incompetent leadership is everywhere, and there's no denying that most of these leaders are men. In this timely and provocative book, Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic asks two powerful questions: Why is it so easy for incompetent men to become leaders? And why is it so hard for competent people--especially competent women--to advance? Marshaling decades of rigorous research, Chamorro-Premuzic points out that although men make up a majority of leaders, they underperform when compared with female leaders. In fact, most organizations equate leadership potential with a handful of destructive personality traits, like overconfidence and narcissism. In other words, these traits may help someone get selected for a leadership role, but they backfire once the person has the job. When competent women--and men who don't fit the stereotype--are unfairly overlooked, we all suffer the consequences. The result is a deeply flawed system that rewards arrogance rather than humility, and loudness rather than wisdom. There is a better way. With clarity and verve, Chamorro-Premuzic shows us what it really takes to lead and how new systems and processes can help us put the right people in charge.

Listen I am not going to try to sugar coat or candy coat it, there is some crazy ass stuff in this book and if you can’t handle sexual debauchery with descriptive language that describes sexual acts of a perverse nature I strongly encourage you to stick with Cat in the Hat or Winnie the Pooh because if you go into this book your mind won’t be same when you come out if you even make it out, just trust me. The craziest thing about this book is that it is all true and I did every single bit of and then some. Read it at your psyche’s peril is all I can say, and don’t say I didn’t try to warn you because I just did. You have no idea what you’re getting yourself into, ha funny, that is what I used tell the girls that would mess around with me. “Ding dong or ring ring, what are you doing”, ummm hopefully you I’d say! The situations in the book are all real and were done by mature adult people of their own will and volition. This book should only be read by mature adults who may perhaps be able to identify with the raw truth there is in this book. This is not a love story or erotica of a type you may have ever read and there is nothing tender or loving about any of it so if that is what you are looking for this book is not for you. The descriptions are graphic and the situations are all real and took place over the course of 54 years, so far. You have been warned.
