Jane Eyre

Charlotte Brontë

"I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will."

Orphaned, unloved, and mistreated, Jane Eyre survives the brutal conditions of Lowood School to become a governess at the mysterious Thornfield Hall. There, she encounters the brooding, cynical Edward Rochester. As an unlikely romance ignites between the spirited governess and her employer, the shadows of Thornfield begin to whisper. A terrifying secret hidden in the attic threatens to destroy Jane's chance at happiness and forces her to choose between her heart and her integrity.

A Revolution of the Self: Unlike the passive heroines of her time, Charlotte Brontë's Jane is a woman of intense inner life and moral courage.

It is a profound exploration of social class, religious hypocrisy, and the struggle for female autonomy in a world designed to suppress it.

Vikings in America

Graeme Davis

When Columbus claimed to have discovered America in 1492, and the Borgia Pope claimed it as a New World for Catholic Spain, the Vatican started a 500 hundred year conspiracy to conceal the true story of Viking America. In this groundbreaking work by the author of The Early English Settlement of Orkney and Shetland, the true extent of the Viking discovery and colonization of the eastern seaboard of America is fully examined, taking into account the new archaeological, linguistic, and DNA evidence which supplements the historic account. For four centuries or more, from their first visits around AD 1000 to the eve of the Columbus voyages, the Vikings explored and settled thousands of miles of the coasts and rivers of North America. 
 
 
 
From New York's Long Island to the Canadian High Arctic, the New World was a playground for Viking adventurers. And the name the Vikings gave to this New World—America.

Planta Sapiens - The New Science...

Paco Calvo, Natalie Lawrence

An astonishing window into the inner world of plants, and the cutting-edge science in plant intelligence. 
 
 
 
Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities: they communicate with one another, manipulate other species, and move in sophisticated ways. Lesser known, however, is the new evidence that plants may actually be sentient. Although plants may not have brains, their microscopic commerce exposes a system not unlike the neuronal networks running through our own bodies. They can learn and remember, possessing an intelligence that allows them to behave in adaptive, flexible, anticipatory, and goal-directed ways. 
 
 
 
A leading figure in the philosophy of plant signaling and behavior, Paco Calvo offers an entirely new perspective on plant biology. In Planta Sapiens, he shows for the first time how we can use tools developed in animal cognition studies in a quest to deeply understand plant intelligence. He illuminates how plants inspire technological advancements: from robotics and AI to tackling the ecological crisis. Most importantly, he demonstrates that plants are neither objects nor resources; they are agents in themselves, and for themselves.

Project 2027 - A Bold Plan for...

Ed Minnock

America needs the Democrats to deliver prosperity and reunite America. 
The book discusses ten policies that voters overwhelmingly support: reduce prescription drug costs, reduce hospital costs, reduce housing costs, raise the minimum wage, remove big money from politics, restore women’s reproductive rights, outlaw gerrymandering, eliminate presidential immunity, restore the Voting Rights Act, and eliminate the electoral college. 
Implementing these policies will alleviate the hardship of nearly 200 hundred million Americans living paycheck to paycheck, enable women throughout America to once again be able to fully participate in modern social and economic life, and advance democracy. 
Democrats have drafted bills and passed laws that implement several of these policies. However, Republicans have and will continue to use the Senate filibuster and the Supreme Court to block these bills and overturn these laws. 
The book presents moral, legal, and constitutional methods to overcome this Republican obstruction without amendments. 
When Democrats improve the quality of life for Americans, they win elections
