To Have or to Be? is one of the seminal books of the second half of the 20th century. Fromm's thesis is that two modes of existence struggle for the spirit of humankind: the having mode, which concentrates on material possessions, power, and aggression, and is the basis of the universal evils of greed, envy, and violence; and the being mode, which is based on love, the pleasure of sharing, and in productive activity.

A rigorous analysis of data shows that crime, not race, drives police actions and prison rates. The growth of proactive policing in the 1990s, along with lengthened sentences for violent crime, saved thousands of minority lives.

Klein and Michael Pettis show in this book, they are often the unexpected result of domestic political choices to serve the interests of the rich at the expense of workers and ordinary retirees. Klein and Pettis trace the origins of today's trade wars to decisions made by politicians and business leaders in China, Europe, and the United States over the past 30 years. 

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is often remembered as a simple story about kindness and inclusion. But beneath the music and tradition is something deeper. A story about difference. A story about exclusion. A story about being valued only when you become useful. Misfit Magic revisits a familiar story with new attention —exploring what it reveals about identity, dignity, and the quiet ways people are asked to change in order to belong. Because the question has never gone away: Who gets to belong —and on what terms?
