He chronicles Searchinger’s uphill battles against bad science and bad politics, both driven by the overwhelming influence of agricultural interests.

Steve Grant was laid off in March of 2020. He was fifty and had cancer, so he needed health insurance, fast. Which is how he found himself a rural letter carrier in Appalachia, back in his old hometown. Suddenly, he was the guy with the goods, delivering dog food and respirators and lube and heirloom tomato seeds and Lord of the Rings replica swords. A brash and loving portrait of an all-American institution, Mailman offers a deeply felt portrait of both rural America and the dedicated (and eccentric) letter carriers who keep our lives running smoothly day to day.

How did we end up here, masters of scientific insight, purveyors of ever more powerful technologies, astride the burning planet that created us, and now responsible for cleaning up the mess and determining the future direction of all of life? And what do we do about it? Technology is Dead is a book that attempts to answer both of those questions. It is a book of both challenge and hope, written for those who are able or willing to lead us out of our global predicament.

Die Rückkehr des Friedrich Merz. Das Ende der Ära Merkel hat ein Vakuum in der Union geschaffen, in dem sich viele als rechtmäßige Nachfolger sahen, viele mitreden und die Zukunft der Partei mitbestimmen wollten. In der Neuerfindung der großen Volkspartei, im Ringen um die Rolle in der Gesellschaft, war es am Ende unvermeidbar, dass ausgerechnet Friedrich Merz Kanzlerkandidat wurde, nicht Hendrik Wüst, nicht Markus Söder. Warum?

From late January to mid February 2022, the eyes of Canada—and indeed, the world—were on Ottawa, Ontario as the Trucker Freedom Convoy converged from all parts of the nation. They were there to tell Prime Minister Trudeau that enough was enough, and they were not going to give in to his politicized mandate that required all cross-border truckers to receive the COVID 19 vaccine. Their journey caught the imagination of a nation tired of lockdowns, mandates, and government overreach.

In Losing Big, historian Jonathan D. Cohen lays out the astonishing emergence of online sports gambling, from sportsbook executives drafting legislation to an addicted gambler confessing their $300,000 losses.

Deutschland schafft sich ab löste 2010 bei seinem Erscheinen eine heftige gesellschaftspolitische Debatte aus. Es gab Versuche, den Inhalt zu skandalisieren, den Autor moralisch in die Ecke zu stellen und die inhaltlichen Argumente, die das Buch tragen, lächerlich zu machen. Von den Vorschlägen zur Abhilfe, die er in dem Buch machte, hat die deutsche Politik wenig bis gar nichts umgesetzt. Der Originaltext von 2010 wird noch in Jahrzehnten zeigen, was man hätte erkennen können, wenn man gewollt hätte, und was man hätte ändern können, wenn man die Ehrlichkeit und die Kraft dazu gefunden hätte.

Der Krieg in der Ukraine spitzt sich weiter zu - damit nimmt nicht nur die Gefahr einer militärischen Eskalation zu. Auch die Propagandaschlacht wird von allen Konfliktparteien erbittert und mit den modernsten Manipulationswaffen geführt. Von russischer Seite wird immer wieder die Karte einer möglichen atomaren Konfrontation ausgespielt. Die Falken im Westen versuchen dagegen, die Gefahr eines Nuklearkrieges als gering und paradoxerweise den russischen Invasionshunger auf Europa gleichzeitig groß darzustellen.

Secondo studi recenti la Russia ha la quota più alta al mondo di dark money, soldi opachi detenuti all’estero: un trilione di dollari. Si stima che un quarto di questi sia collegato a Vladimir Putin e a suoi stretti associati, e il Cremlino sembra sempre più capace di pilotare operazioni aggressive. L'Italia è uno dei pezzi di questo grande gioco: gli oligarchi russi in Italia investono e comprano grandi proprietà. Agiscono portando avanti attività che sono a volte al confine con lo spionaggio.

Mani pulite ha segnato una rottura senza precedenti nella recente storia italiana. A distanza di trent'anni, Piercamillo Davigo ne ripercorre le tappe, ricostruisce tutti i tentativi messi in atto per indebolire i processi, traccia un bilancio - decisamente amaro - dei frutti di quella stagione.

Wer stark ist, wird nicht angegriffen Kriminelle Clans, Fundamentalismus, radikale Rechte stellen unsere Rechtsordnung in Frage. Autoritäre Regierungen unterhöhlen die EU, Russland und China gefährden die westlichen Demokratien und den globalen Frieden. Im Äußeren wie im Inneren steht Deutschland unter Druck. Wenn wir bewahren wollen, was uns kostbar ist, müssen wir uns rüsten. Dabei ist es längst nicht ausreichend, die Bundeswehr zu ertüchtigen.

What if everything we’ve been told about addiction is wrong? One of Johann Hari’s earliest memories is of trying to wake up one of his relatives and not being able to.

Told through a series of gripping human stories, this audiobook was the basis of a TED talk and animation that have been viewed more than twenty million times. It has transformed the global debate about addiction.

Five years ago, my practice partner Dr. Amy Cianciolo and I started down the magical road of direct primary care (DPC), leading away from a frustrating and inadequate healthcare system. This model of care was the closest thing to achieving the healthcare quadruple aim of lowering costs, improving health, and increasing both patient and physician satisfaction.
