    CIRCUMCISION CUTS THROUGH US ALL. In her eye-opening memoir, Georganne Chapin exposes the business of medical circumcision. This unnecessary and most common pediatric surgery in the United States permanently reduces the size and alters the function of a boy’s penis for the rest of his life. Every year, nearly 1.5 million baby boys are assaulted in American hospitals and doctors’ offices, subjecting them to pain, functional and psychological damage, and a forever-altered sexual experience. Chapin traces circumcision’s U.S. roots from 19th Century fears of masturbation to stereotypes about race, class, religion, and male sexuality. She describes how what started as a way to keep men and women from enjoying sex morphed into a for-profit medical practice-one that is rare or unknown in Europe, non-Muslim Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. Finally, she shows how physician organizations, especially the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), have worked for decades to fraudulently promote circumcision’s supposed benefits and suppress facts about circumcision harm and deaths, and how they refuse to acknowledge the procedure as a gross violation of basic medical ethics. Indeed, the AAP now characterizes male genital mutilation as a matter of “culture” and “parental preference”—a position that, conveniently, shields trade associations and their physician members from legal and financial liability. This book is a punch-in-the-gut wake-up call that will enrage and empower anyone impacted by the multi-billion-dollar penis business.

    As a child, Abram is full of wonder and curiosity, exploring the vibrant streets of his hometown. However, the cruel realities of anti-Semitic violence and discrimination slowly chip away at his innocence, leaving him with a deep sense of insecurity and fear. 
    When the Nazi invasion of Ukraine begins, Abram and his family are forced to flee their home and embark on a treacherous journey of survival. Despite the unimaginable horrors he faces, Abram remains steadfast in his determination to protect his loved ones and overcome the atrocities of war. 
    Through his resourcefulness and courage, Abram is able to outsmart the Nazis and ensure the survival of his family. Molodetsky's writing is both raw and compassionate, evoking a sense of empathy and understanding for the unimaginable suffering endured by those who lived through the Holocaust. 
    "The Price of Life" serves as a powerful reminder of the devastating impact of war and genocide on individuals and communities alike. Abram's story is a testament to the resilience and indomitable spirit of the human will, even in the face of the darkest and most unimaginable of circumstances.

  • Free Speech and Turbulent Freedom - The Dangerous Allure of Censorship in the Digital Era - cover

    Free Speech and Turbulent...

    Michael J. Glennon

    A vast censorship regime has smothered America's digital marketplace of ideas, squelching free speech on vital policy issues. Its supporters regard its benefits as morally and politically beyond question. They contend it's carried out by private social media platforms, not governmental authorities. 
     
     
     
    In Free Speech and Turbulent Freedom, Michael J. Glennon offers a timely and incisive response. The censors are short-sighted, he argues. Quibbling over outdated distinctions misses the real threat—which is the fusion of public and private power into a modern-day cartel able to overleap longstanding constitutional safeguards. American democracy, he argues, rests on a decentralized marketplace of ideas independent of the government. In crisp, trenchant terms, Glennon shows how concrete practical concerns justify protecting admittedly harmful online speech—even speech that advocates violence or embraces hatred or apparent falsehood. 
     
     
     
    To safely self-correct, democracy requires open channels of political communication. Glennon calls on the courts to unblock those channels—to measure such speech against enduring First Amendment precepts rather than pliable international norms—and to protect the speech interests not merely of the government and Big Tech, but of all participants in the marketplace of ideas.

    The Law And The Promise

    The Law and the Promise pairs Neville’s core “Law” (assumption) with the “Promise” (spiritual awakening), illustrating both through numerous real-life case stories. You see how imaginal scenes, inner conviction, and persistence produce tangible outcomes - jobs, health, relationships, and opportunities - without forcing the outer world. The second thread points beyond results to revelation: a deeper unfolding of being. It’s one of Neville’s most popular, example-rich books.
