Narrated by the author himself, in this provocative follow up to his New York Times bestselling The Echo Machine, David Pakman offers a dire warning on the cultural and technological forces that are already melting our brains and transforming the pursuit of truth into an almost impossible, even...

Warum zieht es manche Menschen politisch an den rechten Rand (und andere nicht)? Und warum sind unter ihnen so viele Verschwörungsgläubige, Impfgegner und Klimaleugner? Woher kommt ihr Wunsch nach extremen Autoritäten? Wer heute nach Abgrenzung, Härte, neuen Autoritäten und neuen »Wahrheiten« schreit, ist als Kind in seiner Verletzlichkeit allein gelassen worden. Das dadurch beschädigte Vertrauen, so zeigt das Hörbuch, bildet den fruchtbaren Boden für populistische Versprechungen.

A lo largo de la Historia, la idea de progreso ha sido una fuente de inspiración para concebir la sociedad como comunidad que avanza y se perfecciona a través del conocimiento y el esfuerzo colectivo y en este sentido las ideas contemporáneas han puesto en pie una forma radicalmente distinta de entender el mundo. Desde Mayo de 1968, pareció que la transgresión se elevaba a la categoría de dogma y la nueva ortodoxia en rebeldía. En los últimos cincuenta años, nuestra sociedad ha sido remodelada a una velocidad y con una intensidad jamás conocidas.

His final confession. The one he wasn’t supposed to write. The one they’ll brand as “misinformation” while sliding it under the table. Call it a tell-all, call it damage control, call it his victory lap. He calls it . . . pandemic preparedness, uncut.

In Democracy for Sale, Neelam Taneja Perry delivers a searing, firsthand account of what happens when election fraud is alleged — and the very institutions designed to uphold democracy refuse to act. The book begins with Perry’s own congressional race in Florida’s 14th District, where documented irregularities, procedural violations, and sworn affidavits emerged in the aftermath of the 2024 election. After filing a timely election contest, she encountered an unresponsive House of Representatives and a judiciary hesitant to intervene.

Scott Coley exposes the inner workings of the religious right’s propaganda—and how Christians can resist it. Good evangelical Christians are Republican. It seems like it’s always been this way. That means the propaganda is working. Scott Coley trains a critical eye on the fusion of evangelicalism and right-wing politics in Ministers of Propaganda.

Lying has consequences, but generally for the one deceived. Advertisers, salespeople, media, and politicians often use some form of deception to conceal information. Even more critical, institutions you learned to trust from a young age have become untrustworthy and wield power for the sake of their benefit and not yours.

Shadowy groups are increasingly capable of collective action. Using military-grade encryption, rerouting software, and cryptocurrencies, anonymous and pseudonymous actors can now communicate, solve problems, recruit members, and manage resources across multiple public and semipublic spaces. This swirling mix of secrecy and openness enables people to move through cyberspace like nomads with verifiable personas, which makes them impossible to stop.

Owned is the story of the underreported and growing collusion between new wealth and new journalism. In recent years, right-wing billionaires like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, and David Sacks have turned to media as their next investment and source of influence. Their cronies are Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi—once known as idealistic and left-leaning voices, now beneficiaries of Silicon Valley largesse. Together, this new alliance aims to exploit the failings of traditional journalism and undermine the very idea of an independent and fact-based fourth estate.

Democratic Delusions explores the potential of our media and tech systems to be democratic and contribute to a just and transformative democracy. This is only possible, Natalie Fenton argues, by first situating our political systems and mediated worlds within global capitalism. By interrogating different media and their relationship to seven key elements of democracy—power, participation, freedom, equality, public good, trust, and hope—the book asks: What is the response of society when the ability of news media to speak truth to power has been restricted by corporate logic?

For centuries, we’ve been persuaded to trust the lies told by our governments, businesses, and religions to manage how we think and act, to their benefit, not ours. Filled with real-life examples, Theater of Lies demonstrates the impact lies and misinformation have had through the centuries and today on topics including racism, gender debates, entrenched political divides, and the status of women.
