Published book reveals Raunchiest Men in History

It has been said that the great men of history, whose contributions have enriched our lives today, were open and had brazen sexuality.

There was Diogenes, the famous philosopher who masturbated in the Athenian marketplace; Jean Jacques Rousseau, whose candid revelations in his book The Confessions earned him the title of being ‘the famous masturbator’.

Ernest Hemingway also bragged about his masturbation sessions on the Paris Left Bank while William Shakespeare’s sexual trysts was also intelligently mapped out in his sonnets as well.

Thomas Smith delves into this paradox in his self-published book, The Raunchiest Men in History. In this book, the author digs deep into the kinky lives of some of the world’s greatest men – from writers, poets, artists and even the clergy.

In The Raunchiest Men in History, Smith also reveals the rather shocking and scandalous sexual pathos among the clergy, some of which include Pius II, the great Vivaldi and Alexander VI. He also provides explanation behind this psychology in Freudian context. The book also recounts the author's sexually intense encounters as well.

The Raunchiest Men in History lets you in on shockingly steamy revelations from some of the world’s greatest men and provides a deeper understanding of the human psyche.

Winning the legal battle against Child abuse

Children’s rights professionals working in Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs) spend a great deal of their lives working to help victims of child abuse. CACs implement a multi-disciplinary approach to investigate, treat and prevent sexual and physical abuse in children.

Dealing with a terminal illness

Too often, many people who are affected with a terminal illness are not prepared when confronted with the idea of death, let alone accept their fate. They are usually shrouded with fear and uncertainty about what would seemingly lurk ahead. Leading a normal life can be very difficult for those suffering from a terminal illness, including their loved ones too.

Especially for people affected with AIDS, it takes a lot of courage to accept their fate when dealing with this terminal sickness. This has inspired Elaine Young Mcguire to publish a book entitled ‘The Good Thing About AIDS, The Bad Thing About AIDS’.

A retired teacher from Lilburn, Georgia, Elaine Young Mcguire has lost both her brother and son to AIDS.

In this self-published book, smart and heartwarming illustrations by Roy Chung take you into the beauty and madness of wholeheartedly accepting your ordeal with a terminal illness and looking at the situation with a bright eye.

The Good Thing About AIDS, The Bad Thing About AIDS is a compelling book that can touch the hearts and open up the minds of people. It teaches one that an illness should not define one’s life and that it should not get in the way of living normally.

Death is not the be-all and end-all of everything. It doesn’t always mean a loss. In fact, it is just the beginning of something new. People affected with terminal illnesses, as well as their loved ones, should understand how important it is to embrace and accept things as they come. Only then will one learn to be able to live a life truly worth living.
