Sinopsis

Lost Presidential Elections explores the overlooked influence of losing candidates in shaping American political history. Challenging the traditional focus on victors, the book argues that electoral defeat can be a catalyst for significant political and social change. By examining key presidential contests, the book reveals how individuals who failed to win the presidency nonetheless introduced transformative ideas into the mainstream, forcing a reevaluation of established norms. 

 
For instance, some losing candidates championed policies that, while initially rejected, later became central tenets of American governance. The book analyzes specific case studies to illustrate how losing candidates have redefined leadership and altered political alignments. These case studies are thematically grouped to show different ways electoral defeat can lead to historical change.

 
Furthermore, Lost Presidential Elections delves into the unintended consequences of these elections, demonstrating how the political landscape often shifts in unforeseen ways. The book progresses by first establishing theoretical frameworks for understanding electoral change, then exploring specific elections, and finally analyzing the broader implications for leadership and democratic progress.

    An accessible, balanced chronicle of how the Israel-Palestine conflict originated and developed over the past century. The Shortest History books deliver thousands of years of history in one riveting, fast-paced listen. 
     
     
     
    The ongoing struggle between Israel and Palestine is one of the most bitter conflicts in history, with profound global consequences. In this book, Middle East expert Michael Scott-Baumann succinctly describes its origins and charts its evolution from civil war to the present day. Each chapter offers a lucid explanation of the politics and ends with personal testimony from Palestinians and Israelis whose lives have been impacted by the dispute. 
     
     
     
    While presenting competing interpretations, Scott-Baumann examines the key flashpoints, including the early role of the British, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, the Six Day War of 1967, and the Trump administration's peace plan, pitched as "the deal of the century," in 2020. He delineates both the nature of Israeli control over the Palestinian territories and Palestinian resistance—going to the heart of the clashes in recent decades. The result is an indispensable history, including a timeline, glossary, and analysis of why efforts to restore peace have continually failed and what it will take to succeed.
