In Covert Regime Change, Lindsey A. O’Rourke shows us how states really act when trying to overthrow another state. She argues that conventional focus on covert cases misses the basic causes of regime change. O’Rourke provides substantive evidence of types of security interests that drive states to intervene. Covert Regime Change assembles an original dataset of all American regime change operations during the Cold War. This fund of information shows the United States was 10 times more likely to try covert rather than overt regime change during the Cold War.

This book is not about shortcuts, hacks, or outsourcing your thinking to AI. It is about learning smarter, thinking deeper, and using AI as a powerful learning partner — not a replacement for intelligence. Whether you are a ...

When Remembering Becomes Optional examines a structural change introduced by artificial intelligence that extends beyond automation or employment. As AI systems increasingly store, retrieve, and interpret information on demand, the conditions that once made memory, knowledge, and historical understanding necessary begin to change. For most of human history, memory functioned as a practical requirement. Knowledge was carried forward because forgetting had consequences. Skills, histories, and frameworks were transmitted through lived experience, repetition, and necessity.
