This collection of essays from rhetoric authority and celebrated writing blogger David Murray applies his signature blend of humor and heart to a free-wheeling conversation about how we communicate in America.

An exploration of forceful communication strategies and their application in society.

We live in an age of dazzling technological advancement. Every year brings breakthroughs that transform how we communicate, work, and live. From artificial intelligence to quantum computing, technology is leaping forward at an almost incomprehensible pace. Yet, amidst this rapid progress, another truth emerges: our socio-economic systems, political frameworks, and ethical paradigms seem to lag behind, as if frozen in time. The contrast is striking. While our devices grow smarter, our societal structures remain riddled with inefficiencies and inequities.

Daniel Coyle has spent the last six years researching and visiting 'holistic hotbeds': groups, teams, businesses, and communities which have, accidentally or on purpose, created deep, thriving relationships that generate high levels of shared success and well-being. From a small town in Vermont that has produced 11 Olympians over the past 40 years—where most of the Olympians return to live and work after their athletic careers are over—to a Michigan deli that accidentally grew into a $70 million business.

Birth of a Community: A Love Letter to Black America is a powerful tribute to the strength, beauty, and resilience of Black America. Blending personal stories, historical reflections, and cultural insight, the author paints a vivid portrait of Black American life while confronting systemic struggles and injustices. Yet, the book remains deeply rooted in hope, unity, and the richness of Black American heritage. The author challenges the misnomer of "The Black Community," offering concepts grounded in community development and racial identity research.

For over a decade, I’ve been captivated by the idea of this book, which goes beyond profiling well-known locals in Orange County. It focuses on individuals who contribute significantly to the region’s culture and beyond, showcasing a diverse range of stories. Orange County isn’t just a location; it’s a hub of creativity, entrepreneurship, and innovation—from surf culture to tech giants.

As a cognitive scientist, the ultimate subject of Steven Pinker’s fascination is how we think about each other’s thoughts about each other’s thoughts, ad infinitum. It sounds impossible, but Steven Pinker shows that we do it all the time. This awareness, which we experience as something that is public or “out there,” is called common knowledge, and it has a momentous impact on our social, political, and economic lives.

Through compelling examples from business, economics, literature, art, fashion, and beyond, Anointed demonstrates how status cascades through society, creating winners and losers in ways that often have little to do with merit. And how new technology offers a glimpse of a more equitable future.

The eighteenth century was a time of cultural friction: individuals began to assert greater independence and there was a new emphasis on social equality. In this surprising history, Lynn Hunt examines women's expanding societal roles, such as using tea to facilitate conversation between the sexes in Britain. In France, women also pushed boundaries by becoming artists, and printmakers' satiric takes on the elite gave the lower classes a chance to laugh at the upper classes and imagine the potential of political upheaval.

Este libro surge de la inversión de la pregunta que ordenaba un proyecto intelectual. En el lapso entre 1998 y 2004, Peter Sloterdijk (Karlsruhe, 1947) gesta, en el monumental proyecto Esferas, su apuesta más vasta para explicar la historia de la humanidad indagando en el carácter pneumático de toda comunidad. Guiaba su mano la siguiente hipótesis: los seres humanos, para estar en el mundo, no hacen sino crear e insuflar incesantemente un espacio para vivir juntos.

David Harvey's Companion to Marx's Grundrisse builds upon his widely acclaimed companions to the first and second volumes of Capital in a way that will reach as wide an audience as possible. Marx's stated ambition for this text is to reveal "the exact development of the concept of capital as the fundamental concept of modern economics, just as capital itself is the foundation of bourgeois society."

We live in a world that doesn’t just encourage overtalking, but practically demands it. When success is measured by how much attention we can attract, how long we can hold on to the mic, it’s no wonder that we feel compelled to spout endlessly on Twitter, to document every detail of our lives on Instagram, start that podcast, or lead that conference. And yet, oddly enough, the most powerful and accomplished people in the world aren’t part of that chorus—they’re reserved, they listen, and when they do speak they’re considered.

Der größte Nutzen, den die Einführung des Sozialismus brächte, liegt ohne Zweifel darin, dass der Sozialismus uns von der schmutzigen Notwendigkeit, für andere zu leben, befreite, die beim jetzigen Stand der Dinge so schwer auf fast allen Menschen lastet. Es entgeht ihr in der Tat fast niemand. Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) war ein irischer Schriftsteller, der sich nach Schulzeit und Studium in Dublin und Oxford in London niederließ.

O mundo de amanhã será definido mais pelas dinâmicas que prevalecem na luta entre as democracias liberais do que pela evolução da ciência e da tecnologia, das mudanças climáticas ou das epidemias. A crise da ordem liberal marca o regresso da competição entre as grandes potências.

In The Making of White American Identity, Ron Eyerman provides an explanation for how whiteness has become a basis for collective identification and collective action in the United States. Drawing upon his previous work on the formation of African American identity, as well as cultural trauma theory, collective memory, and social movements, he reveals how and under what conditions such a collective identification emerges, as well as how the mobilization of collective action around an ideology of whiteness and white superiority.

On Being Unreasonable mounts a vital and spirited defence of why and how being unreasonable can help improve the world. It examines and parses the pros and cons of our rules around reason, but leaves us with the rousing question: What if behaving unreasonably at times might be the best way to bring about meaningful change that is long overdue?

Discover the secret to flourishing in an age of division: belonging. In a world filled with discord and loneliness, finding harmony and happiness can be difficult. But what if the key to unlocking our potential lies in this deceptively simple concept? Belonging is the feeling of being a part of a group that values, respects, and cares for us—a feeling that we can all cultivate in even the smallest corners of social life.

Status was once easy to identify—fast cars, fancy shoes, sprawling estates, elite brands. But in place of Louboutin’s and Lamborghinis, the relevance of the rich, famous, and gauche is waning and a riveting revolution is underfoot. Chuck Thompson—dubbed “savagely funny” by The New York Times and “wickedly entertaining” by the San Francisco Chronicle—sets out to determine what “status” means today and learns that what was once considered the low life has become the high life.

This audiobook narrated by Jennifer Woodward explains why acknowledging diverse eco-social relationships can help us overcome the political polarization that undermines our ability to protect the environment.
