This new edition of Well… There You Go Again! The Humor That Shaped America captures nearly every quip, joke and anecdote told by Ronald Reagan during his presidency. It’s a virtual clinic on how to use humor as a persuasion tool. It’s also very funny. Even Democrats will laugh. From quips about taxing and spending to jokes about economists, bureaucracy and government regulation, the collection is as pertinent today as ever. Humor has become a lost art in politics. People should learn to disagree without personal attacks and hostility.

The book documents challenges, success stories, and key lessons along the way to helping preserve Northwest ancient forests, peaceably recover wolves in the region, and much more. ​Part memoir, part guide on strategy for activists and liberal citizens, Conservation Confidential offers the distilled wisdom of experience that Friedman searched for as a young activist but couldn’t find.

A partir de diversos testimonios, boletines médicos, mitines de campaña, oficios religiosos, disposiciones y decretos oficiales, discursos de Eva y Juan Domingo Perón, artículos periodísticos, programas radiales, fotografías, cortometrajes oficiales y cartas al presidente, Una pérdida eterna analiza la manera en que la dimensión emocional se integró en las discusiones ideológicas, en los debates políticos y en las disputas culturales del país en los años cincuenta.

Léon Blum (1872-1950) a exercé sur le socialisme français un magistère qui ne se limite pas à ses brèves expériences de gouvernement. La première d'entre elles, qui fait suite à la victoire du Front populaire, garde soixante-dix ans après la force symbolique d'un grand mythe républicain. Serge Berstein dresse de Léon Blum un portrait équitable et nuancé, à cent lieues de l'histoire partisane qui sévit encore souvent à droite certes mais aussi à gauche.

Madame Markievicz, otherwise known as Countess Markievicz, was an extraordinary woman, well ahead of her times. She was a committed feminist, socialist, republican and a dedicated helper for the poor. She was the first woman Member of Parliament and a Minister for Labour in the first Irish government. Her influence is immeasurable. This is a play that attempts to recall her fascinating life.

Over the past decade, Camonghne Felix has been at the center of American politics, working in strategy, communications, and as a speechwriter. Throughout it all, she has maintained her unwavering belief in language’s foundational revolutionary potential, outside of its deployment for legislative and political ends. In this groundbreaking work of nonfiction, she argues that Black radical poetic traditions can model a new ethical code and overcome entrenched structures of patriarchy and paternalism, inventing a new form that examines the historical and legislative, and the personal and poetic.

Few figures in British history have been so deeply and so consequentially involved with the British royal family as Winston Spencer Churchill. While numerous men of stature have advised kings and queens during their reigns, Churchill is unique in his role: helping to shape not only a single reign but an entire royal dynasty. However, it was by no means a seamless relationship. At times, the royal family treated him with suspicion and contempt; at others, their relations were avuncular, competitive and cheering.

Despite North Tulsa, Damario Solomon-Simmons’ hometown, once being the mecca for Black wealth, north Tulsans don’t own land or property, don't have access to inheritance or generational wealth, and mostly live paycheck to paycheck. We see through young Damario’s eyes–and the subtle and direct racism he faces–that Tulsa hasn’t shed its racist roots. Combining his own experience and the evocative portrait of a city suffering under one hundred years without repair, Redeem a Nation acknowledges why restorative justice is urgent and critical.

“Others make war; you, happy Austria, marry.” This unofficial dictum had for centuries kept the Habsburgs at the peak of power, but by 1764, the dynasty was in a precarious position. After a difficult accession and two lengthy wars, the Empress Maria Theresia faced enormous debts, restive subjects, and shaken political ties. True to Habsburg tradition, she sought the remedy in marriage alliances, and her arsenal was full: her seven daughters were to serve as her pawns in the ruthless game of eighteenth-century dynastic politicking.

In this moving memoir of growing up Gaza with a hunger for freedom and a passionate attachment to the places she calls home, journalist, writer, and activist, Alghoul recounts her lifelong resistance to religious fanaticism, state sponsored violence, and all forms of repression and subjugation. Offering an intimate look into life, politics, and survival in Gaza in recent years, Alghoul's A Rebel in Gaza offers listeners a nuanced and singular perspective on the current conflict.

Da Milano a Roma, passando per Torino, Gradisca d'Isonzo, Palazzo San Gervasio, Brindisi, Bari, Trapani, Caltanissetta e Macomer: la detenzione amministrativa nei Cpr ci ricorda che in Italia esistono vite che valgono meno. Sono quelle dei sans-papiers, coloro che non hanno un regolare permesso di soggiorno, e possono ritrovarsi all'improvviso chiusi in gabbie di pochi metri quadrati.

Prinzessin Alice erzählt vom bewegten und überraschenden Leben der hochadligen Alice von Battenberg, der Großmutter des britischen Königs Charles III. Ihre faszinierende Intelligenz – sie, die gehörlos geboren wurde, las in fünf verschiedenen Sprachen von den Lippen ab –, aber auch ihre überbordende erotische Lust in Verbindung mit ihrer nahezu fanatischen Beziehung zu Gott ließen Alice von Battenberg zur Bedrohung für all jene werden, die ein traditionelles Frauenbild in Königskreisen konservieren wollten.
