I devoured this book in 9 hours. It was a fine read. While reading, I was sometimes overwhelmed with emotion. And sometimes I clenched my teeth with disgust.
Raven and Ares were supposed to have an arranged marriage because of the family but somehow Ares ended up engaging with Raven's sister, Hannah. Throughout their engagement, Raven never attached importance to Hannah. OMG! I HATE HANNAH AND HER MOTHER. I've never seen such arrogant and selfish characters like them. One was no better than the other. Raven was a kind and loving character. She always shone. She's been loving Ares since she first met him. Whenever she had the chance to explain her feelings to him, Hannah was there to ruin it. Such a brat.
Finally, Raven had her moment. She tried to win him over patiently. Their growing tension was perfect. I love slow-burn romance like this one. The spice was good, however, I need to say that I didn't quite feel them. The plot was good, like a marriage of convenience, slow burn, fake bride, family pressure... BUT I'M NOT OKAY WITH THAT GRANDMA. At first, I loved her. She was a cute elderly person. Later in the book, she did something horrible to Raven. I don't spoil it. However, I don't approve of her behavior. She shouldn't have said or done that things. And I know that she is the core of the family, so I'll read so much about her actions throughout the series. Regardless of that, I FUCKING DONT WANT TO READ ANYTHING ABOUT HER.
SCM & Logistics
Warehouses are facilities where goods are stored and managed, acting as an essential link between the manufacturer and the end consumer. It's a crucial part of supply chain management and logistics. Thus we can't underestimate their importance. For businesses to achieve sustainable and accountable success, a strong understanding of warehouse operations is essential.
The book covers key aspects such as layout design, workforce planning, material handling equipment (MHE), receiving and dispatch processes, core warehouse operations, picking strategies and outsourcing. In summary, the book provides a step by step explanation of the vital elements of warehouse management.
I acquired this book upon my professor’s recommendation and I'm glad I found it. It helped me to gain a comprehensive perspective on warehouses.

THE BEAST AMONG US
Personality is a set of characteristics that the individual has and distinguishes the individual from others. In psychology, personality has been studied from many aspects and theories have been established on this subject. Sigmund Freud that forms the basis of all theories has been studied over the concepts of id, ego and superego that affect the behavior and preferences of the person. Carl Gustav Jung, a student of Freud, began to oppose Freud's views in later stages, often rejecting Freud's views. Today the purpose of this paper is to express the character of Henry Fleming, the main character of The Red Badge of Courage written by Stephen Crane, in the light of archetypes that display Jung's basic human behavior.
To achieve this goal, I have organized my paper into two sections. In the first section, I am going to mention about our main character Henry Fleming’s characteristic properties in Red Badge of Courage. In the second section, I will tell you Henry Fleming’s psychological complexity in the light of Carl Gustav Jung’s thoughts.
The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane, a war novel, presents us with the hidden and terrible face of war. A youth named Henry Flemming enlists in the Union Army in hopes of achieving his visions of heroism and glory. Shortly after he enlists, the fact of his decision arises. But things make him bring a different state than what was planned by Henry.
He is surpassed because of his fear of death. During his first combat, he escapes from the battle field when the enemy approaches. He instantly notices that war is not what he thought. Henry does not stop retreating even after his mockery manages to destroy the enemy. After the first conflict is over, Henry is left be alone with his own conscience. He feels
Very provocative! I gave it 10 stars not because I agree with all points Yuval made, but I find them intellectually stimulating. He is definitely smart and articulate. He draws interesting and philosophical conclusions from historical events. This book shall be deemed more of a philosophy book than a history one. So, overall it is a very thought provoking, well-written history/philosophy book. Especially the last chapter on happiness is awesome.
However, I also have couple criticism about some of Yuval's ideas, some of which I wanna share here.
Yuval does not believe in any sacred values, beliefs or ideas of human history including equality, human rights, God, religions or even the soul. Throughout the book he mentions atheist, materialist and evolutionist views as hardcore scientific truths without discussing any weaknesses of these views. For example how did the matter come into existence out of nothing in the first place. Or how did life start on earth. He is defining evolutionary forces as “blind”. But then interestingly he comes to believe that these blind forces, made up of unconscious atoms, somehow ‘by chance’ created such a magnificent world including millions of different species each of which are equipped with the state of the art tools, organs and systems. My point is you cannot impose your views as hard core scientific truths if they are only weak theories.
It is also very interesting to see that Yuval considers equality and individual freedom contradict each other. His reasoning is ‘Because, equality can be ensured only by curtailing the freedoms of those who are better off’. What he misses is by ‘equality’, it is meant the equality of ‘rights and opportunities’, not the equality of biological or psychological traits. Also, by ‘freedom’ it is not meant
A terrific short novel with a great idea at its core. This was banned by the Nazis. It isn't clear to me why except that there is one reference to supporter of the Reds in Russian, and certainly they would have been enemies of the Germans in 1933.
I really, really liked this one. It's so twisted! I thought it was a crime novel but no way -- this is a very dark book overflowing with paranoia, one that seriously played with my head. But The less one knows about the book before reading it, the better.
Young German doctor Georg Amberg awakens in hospital after an accident. Amberg's memories of the circumstances are not believed. He says he suffered a blow to the head from a flail a few days earlier but doctors insist he was knocked down by a car and has been in a coma for five weeks. The bulk of the novel is Amberg's recollection of events leading up to his accident, from the time he accepted a job as village doctor in rural Westphalia, where he meets Baron von Malchin, an old friend of Amberg's historian father, his estate manager, a White Russian exile, and Bibiche, a beautiful young scientist working with the Baron.
It's also a highly-satisfying novel I can recommend to anyone who, like me, loves obscure fiction.
