  Global urbanization is one of the defining phenomena of the 21st century, reshaping the landscape of human society in profound and often unpredictable ways. Urban areas have become epicenters of economic, cultural, and technological growth, drawing millions of people in search of better opportunities. As more than half of the world’s population now resides in cities, the rapid expansion of urban areas raises both exciting prospects and complex challenges. This shift is not just about the physical growth of cities, but also the transformation of how societies function, how people live, and how global systems interact with local realities. 
  At its core, global urbanization is driven by a multitude of factors. The movement of people from rural to urban areas, spurred by the promise of economic opportunity and improved living standards, has accelerated with globalization. As the world becomes more interconnected, cities are increasingly positioned as nodes in a vast, global network. These cities are not isolated entities but are linked by flows of capital, information, and labor, contributing to the spread of economic, cultural, and technological trends. This interconnectedness means that changes in one city can have ripple effects worldwide, making the study of urbanization crucial for understanding the broader dynamics of global society. 
  However, urbanization is not a uniform process. While some cities grow through industrialization and technological advancements, others are expanding due to rapid population growth driven by migration and high birth rates. The result is a global urban landscape marked by diversity in size, scale, economic power, and social complexity. While cities like New York, London, and Tokyo have long been at the forefront of global urbanization, emerging cities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America are now gaining prominence.

  Subjectified is a book about subjects, objects, and verbs. It is also a book about clothing-optional resorts, masturbation circles, and sex parties. 
   
   
   
  Suzannah Weiss takes the listener through her adventures as a sex and relationship writer to explore how we can create a world with less objectification and more subjectification—placing women and other marginalized groups in the subject role of sentences and actions. Offering a deeply personal critique of sexual empowerment movements, Weiss presents a way forward that focuses on what women desire, not what men desire from them. Subjectified calls for women everywhere to inhabit their bodies and hearts—to look through their own eyes and speak as "I." 
   
   
   
  The book is for everybody wanting to understand themselves as subjects. Wholeheartedly, the author invites you to follow her search for subjecthood and, should you desire, forge your own path out of objecthood.

  A collection of the most influential speeches by Marcus Tullius Cicero, Rome’s greatest orator and statesman, The Orations of Cicero showcases his rhetorical brilliance, political principles, and defense of the Roman Republic. Spanning legal arguments, public denunciations, and philosophical reflections, these speeches reveal Cicero’s efforts to uphold justice, combat corruption, and resist the rise of autocracy—most notably in his fierce opposition to Mark Antony in the Philippics . Written with eloquence and moral conviction, Cicero’s orations remain foundational texts in the study of rhetoric, law, and classical political thought. They offer invaluable insight into the turbulent final years of the Roman Republic and the mind of a man who believed deeply in the power of words to shape history, preserve liberty, and defend the rule of law.

  The Woods Without Gods

  The Woods Without Gods is a poetic and philosophical meditation on the disappearance of the sacred from the modern world. Where once every forest was a temple and every shadow whispered divinity, now there is only silence — the echo of meaning lost to measurement. This book journeys through that silence, tracing how humanity’s hunger for mastery erased mystery, and how, in our pursuit of progress, we forgot how to listen. 
   Neither nostalgic nor cynical, The Woods Without Gods reveals what remains after faith: attention. It argues that awe can survive without theology, that reverence can exist without ritual. Through the lens of ecology, memory, and philosophy, it mourns the world’s disenchantment while celebrating the possibility of rediscovering holiness through perception itself. 
   This is not a lament for lost gods — it’s a call to presence. The sacred is not gone; it has only gone quiet, waiting in the moss, in the fog, in the patience of trees.
