In The Triumph of Improvisation, James Graham Wilson takes a long view of the end of the Cold War, from the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979 to Operation Desert Storm in January 1991. Drawing on deep archival research and recently declassified papers, Wilson argues that adaptation, improvisation, and engagement by individuals in positions of power ended the specter of a nuclear holocaust.

As inside the increasingly marginal United Nations a process begins to select a successor to Antonio Guterres who stole the post from female candidates in 2016 and drove the UN into the ground including through censorship, it is time to review the history. Inner City Press, which Guterres banned from the UN as it reported on his link with briber CEFC China Energy and to sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, both convicted in the SDNY Federal court, closely covered Guterres' dubious selection, and after. Antonio Guterres was out of the United Nations system, getting paid by Lisbon-based ...

This is the memoir of James C. Hormel - a man who grew up feeling different not only because his family owned the Hormel “empire” and lived in a 26 bedroom house in a small Midwest town, but because he was gay at a time when homosexuality was not discussed or accepted. Outwardly he tried to live up to the life his father wanted for him - he was a successful professional, had married a lovely woman, and had children - but as volatile changes in the late 1960s impeded on the American psyche, Hormel realized that he could not hide his true self forever.

Two bullets, one wrong turn, and a summer morning in Sarajevo that refused to stay a local scandal. The Day Sarajevo Shook reads 28 June 1914 like a single long moment: the motorcade and the flags, the conspirators and their blunders, the bureaucratic routines that turned diplomacy into a countdown. This is not a grand theory; it is a close, clear-eyed reconstruction of how chance met grievance and how ordinary procedures—rail timetables, alliance promises, hurried ultimatums—made escalation almost inevitable. Witty where it can be, unsparing where it must, JD Arden moves from street-...

The Potter Directive - A Censored Political Thriller They Don't Want You To Read A gripping geopolitical thriller that dares to ask: What if the war for truth has already begun—and we’re losing? What if your memories were rewritten? What if your past had been reprogrammed? What if the future of freedom depended on a forgotten fire… And one man still carrying it? Within this international crisis story lies something far more sinister: a digital war not fought with bullets or missiles, but with narrative manipulation, mass amnesia, and engineered belief. At the center of the storm is ...

By daytime, Ukraine is a sophisticated European country going about its business, and Kyiv seems like an enchanting city. But by night, the sirens roar, and the war begins. Ukraine is using the amount of ammunition that all of Europe produces in one day, and yet on the surface, much of the country appears to be going about its business as usual. This is a very different audiobook as this is a very different war – one fought by a huge army of civilians, from old punk rockers to university professors and Coca Cola brand managers who are working behind the scenes to outwit the Russian army.

GAZA Today: Would You Turn Your Back. Everyone knows what Gaza is. A strip of land in the Middle East, being vociferously fought over. I don't want to get into the Politics of it, but at least a brush with it is unavoidable if you attempt any kind of dialogue or description of the occurrences that are happening there — truly awful. This poem is a short one, and keeps to the suffering of its people, and not delving too much into sides of the Political spectrum. I think the suffering in a modern day scenario with instant and graphic footage of this one-sided war is horrific.

China, a challenge that looms large, is often depicted as a menacing force to be met with confrontation and containment. In some circles, there is even talk of an inevitable or imminent conflict. The Chinese Communist Party is often cast as a unique axis of evil, a threat to liberal democracies and emerging democracies in Asia and beyond. The Belt and Road Initiative, a sprawling infrastructure project that spans continents, is viewed with suspicion, seen either as a tool for economic subjugation or a pathway to conquest. What if this need not be the case? What if we were to calmly assess, ...

Diplomatic History explores the management of relations between nation-states by the process of negotiations. From the diplomacy of the American Revolution, the diplomatic origins of the Great War and its aftermath, Versailles, and the personal summitry behind the night Stalin and Churchill Divided Europe, to George W. Bush and the Iraq War, and diplomacy in the age of globalization, the management of power relationships has had an immense impact on our recent history.

As tensions among China, Russia, and the US escalate perilously toward a new Cold War, Doyle introduces a radical paradigm that will facilitate the international cooperation necessary to avert the global threats of our time.

But the truth is far richer, more powerful, and more inspiring. What Africa Gave the World — And What Every Teen Should Know is a groundbreaking book that sets the record straight. It reveals Africa not as a passive ...
