Weighing a need for consolidated leadership with a demand for states' rights, they established a large federal republic with limited dominion over the states. This Very Short Introduction audiobook provides a concise overview of federalism, from its origins and evolution to the key events and constitutional decisions that have defined its framework.

America’s anti-gun lobby wants you to “leave guns to the professionals.” The police and military will protect you, they say. Really? Ask the people of Israel how well that worked out for them. On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists murdered 1,200 Israelis in cold blood. Civilians waited in anguish for the army or police to rescue them. Why?

They loosened gun laws to allow as many citizens as possible to arm themselves.

What if humanity's greatest challenges are not the differences between us, but the divisions we have come to accept as permanent? In an age of climate crises, wars, mass displacement, economic uncertainty, and unprecedented technological change, the problems shaping our future increasingly transcend national boundaries. Yet our thinking remains deeply rooted in systems built around separation, competition, and fear.

The liberal international order is over. What comes next doesn't have a name yet—until now. On February 28, 2026, a single military operation reshaped the world.

Reforging Excalibur is an exciting and unique proposal for restructuring America’s armed forces in order to better prepare us for Fourth-Generation warfare. After a withering critique of the bloat and waste of the Department of Defense and Pentagon’s “business as usual” attitude towards military spending, the authors disclose why this approach is unsustainable in terms of budget and combat readiness. In short, while our military is prepared to fight wars with other state militaries, it is woefully unprepared — psychologically and structurally — to succeed in Fourth-Generation warfare.
