  No Self No God No Clue - David...

  ohn Locke: Enlightenment philosopher, father of liberalism, inventor of “natural rights,” and accidental spiritual patron of land developers, libertarians, and your uncle who won’t shut up about property taxes. 
  In this gloriously sarcastic takedown of one of Western philosophy’s most over-quoted minds, Sophia Blackwell (Kant You Not, No Self, No God, No Clue) guides you through Locke’s greatest hits—including: 
  The blank slate theory, which basically says you’re born dumb and the world makes you worse 
  His ideas on identity, which collapse the second you forget your phone password 
  His version of consent, which mostly consists of “You didn’t leave, so I assume you’re fine with it.” 
  And of course, property rights—where mixing your labor with the earth somehow makes it yours, and stealing land becomes morally correct as long as you bring a shovel 
  Locke’s political philosophy inspired democracies, revolutions, and every 400-comment Reddit thread titled “Taxation is theft.” 
  This is not a respectful biography. 
  This is a roast. A eulogy. A survival guide for understanding how Locke gave us: 
  Liberalism 
  Landlords 
  Legal headaches 
  And a political system that thinks fencing off a patch of dirt = moral superiority 
  Perfect for: 
  Recovering philosophy students 
  Political skeptics 
  Enlightenment haters 
  Property law survivors 
  And anyone who wants to laugh while questioning whether government is just a giant metaphor for a really passive-aggressive roommate agreement 
  You don’t need to read Two Treatises of Government. 
  You just need to know Locke said, “I think I own that,” and people believed him.

  "I am not moving to Iraq to teach." 
  But the recession came hard for Gretchen Berg. Tens of thousands of dollars in debt, her only option was to uproot her life and move to the Middle East for work. She was prepared to make some good money, pay off some bad debt, take some photos of camels, and suffer through expected misogyny typical of the Middle East. She was unprepared for the drama and chaos that erupted within the well-intended, burgeoning university program, and the comical carnival of personalities she’d encounter, along with unexpected misogyny coming from inside the building. 
  How far out of your comfort zone do you have to go to find yourself? 
  Hilarious and irreverent, I Have Iraq in My Shoe takes a single, broke, fashion-obsessed American female who prefers fashion shows to news shows and launches her into Iraq where her patience, assumptions, resolve, and sense of self will be put to the test. 
  It’s a different kind of desert storm.
