This is a very special episode of The Dr. Rod Berger Show presented by Fair Observer! Dr. Berger dives into the story of a young woman amid warfare, emerging as a scholar and award-winning author depicting the power of life, friendship, and never-ending hope.  From the author of the young adult memoir The Cat I Never Named—which received seven starred reviews and a YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction Award—comes another epic memoir, this time for middle-grade readers, about coming-of-age in the years leading up to the Bosnian Genocide. Three Summers by Amra Sabic-El-Rayess is the story of five young cousins who grow closer than sisters, navigating the joys and pitfalls of adolescence as ethnic tensions escalate over three summers in 1980s Bosnia. This is The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants for the next generation, aiming to build empathy and compassion in readers. Beginning with the tragic loss of her brother, Three Summers is Amra's captivating tale of healing and coming-of-age through friendship that seamlessly weaves classic adolescent experiences of first crushes and pimple woes, against the backdrop of deeper, lesser-known historical events. Written with incredible warmth, Amra takes readers on a journey that will break their hearts and put them back together again. With identity-based hate on the rise, Amra hopes her story will put faces and names and human identities to Muslim people and genocide survivors, like herself, so kids who are from different backgrounds can build empathy and start to look at each other with curiosity, not judgement. Complimentary backmatter will feature a history of the Bosnian War, author's note, timeline, and a family tree among other topics, since most readers will not learn about the Bosnian War in middle school. Amra Sabic-El-Rayess grew up in Bihac, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Currently she is a professor at Columbia University, studying how and why societies fall apart and what role education can play in rebuilding decimated countries. She is also the author of the critically acclaimed young adult memoir The Cat I Never Named.

Hear from Daniel Wagner, CEO of Country Risk Solutions, about the complexities of the global geopolitical risk landscape.

These multi-layered events are having a huge impact across the risk management spectrum, affecting everything from market risk to supply-chain risk to credit risk, cyber risk and liquidity risk. Complicating matters further, they are idiosyncratic and very difficult to predict. Keeping all this in mind, there are certainly still steps that financial risk managers can take to better measure and mitigate geopolitical threats.

When we think of Nepal, we think of its high Himalayan mountains, or maybe the highlands of Kathmandu. But somewhere between a quarter and a third of the country is nothing like that: marshy, forested, malaria-infested swampland, along the southern border with India. This is the Tarai, the most productive region of Nepal—and also the focal point for the once-Kingdom of Nepal's conquest. Maximillian Mørch writes about the region's history in his latest book Plains of Discontent: A Political History of Nepal's Tarai (1743-2019) (FinePrint, 2023), published earlier this year Maximillian Mørch is an author & researcher specializing in Asian borderlands. He is also the author of By the Way of the Border: Travels around the frontiers and Beyuls of Nepal (Vajra Books: 2019). His research has focused on a wide range of issues including political dissent and judicial reform in Myanmar, the legal status of Tibetan refugees, migrant workers in Thailand and identity and citizenship in Nepal. His writing has been published in Himal Southasian, Huffington Post, The Diplomat, East Asia Forum, The Kathmandu Post, The Record, Republica, Global Is Asian, Fair Observer, Tea Circle, The Tibet Post and more. Today, Maximilian and I talk about the Tarai, how it relates to Nepal's history, and how development in the Tarai may have had some unintended consequences.

Theoretical neuroscientist William Softky returns to the Far Out with Faust podcast to delve deeply into the science of our senses to help us understand — technically speaking — exactly what's going on (and what's going wrong) within our nervous system.Learn why math is better than science (he's got proof), and how artificial intelligence (AI), corporate algorithms, and our own blind trust in “the spreadsheets” have created a self-fulfilling dependence on the unreal that's damaging our core in ways we may never comprehend.According to Bill, the anti human programming solution is simple: it all comes down to connection — the actual kind. Listen in to learn his anti-tech tricks that just might save us from ourselves.William Softky is a biophysicist who was among the first neuroscientists to understand  microtiming, and among the first technologists to build that understanding into algorithms.  His name is on 10 patents, thousands have cited his scientific work, and two of the companies he inspired were acquired for $160 million total. Softky holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Caltech, where he discovered a still-unsolved paradox about the firing patterns of brain neurons. A theoretical biophysicist — the son of two physicists — Softky served in the Peace Corps in Cameroon before attending grad school.His subsequent career in Silicon Valley (including biophysics, human-computer interaction, and signal processing) has given him a unique perspective on the software and hardware architecture of human brains, including new insights about our deepest (yet most deeply-hidden) high-bandwidth method of somatic communication. softky.com --A scientific philosophy of life: https://www.softky.com/index2.php Pure science: --A Grant Unified Theory of the Informational Structure of Life, starting with homeostatic fragility and  ending with spinal ecstasy and human resonant connection....all derived from scratch, no  footnotes: https://www.softky.com/index2.php --Bulletproof 60-page peer-reviewed paper outlining human nervous system  needs: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1710.08916.pdf --Eight mathematical proofs that brains are natively analog 3-D  processors: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1409.8275.pdf Fair Observer.com: https://www.fairobserver.com/author/william-softky/

The provocation has sent shock waves around the world, drawing fiery rhetoric and doomsday warnings from U.S. President Donald Trump.
