Summary

"Russian Subs" presents a comprehensive exploration of how submarine warfare has fundamentally shaped Russia's naval power and global military dynamics since World War II. The book masterfully weaves together the technological evolution of Russian submarines, from early diesel-electric models to modern nuclear-powered vessels, with the strategic doctrine that guided their development and deployment.

 
Through declassified documents, technical specifications, and firsthand accounts from submarine commanders, readers gain unprecedented insight into how Russia's undersea forces have influenced international relations and maritime security. The narrative challenges conventional wisdom by demonstrating that Russian submarine development follows a consistent strategic vision rather than merely reacting to Western capabilities.

 
Key technological milestones, such as the revolutionary titanium hull design of the Alpha-class submarines and the development of the modern Borei-class nuclear deterrent vessels, illustrate Russia's commitment to underwater supremacy. The book's systematic analysis of submarine warfare's evolution reveals how these naval assets have become crucial tools in diplomatic negotiations and regional security arrangements.

 
Structured chronologically and thematically, the work bridges military technology, international relations, and maritime law while remaining accessible to non-specialists. The author's careful balance of technical detail and strategic analysis makes this an invaluable resource for military historians, defense analysts, and policy makers, while still engaging general readers interested in naval history. By examining submarine capabilities' influence on diplomatic and military power, the book provides essential context for understanding current maritime security challenges.

    Humans produce what the aliens crave. They keep us on factory farms. They pump us full of glorious hormones. 
    It began with a physical exam. They probed and explored my body while making me watch a terrifying video. 
    Then they put me in a holding cell with my new companion—a computer that can read my mind. 
    It doesn’t matter what I say, it knows how to influence and manipulate me. It’s designed to milk me dry. That’s why I’m here—I’m livestock. 
    Day by day, I can feel my body morphing. The need to be milked grows stronger and stronger. I’m no longer a man. 
    I’m a hucow.

    “Not just a shimmering guide to our personal cosmologies written in precise and lucid prose, this book is also a devastating collection of cultural-criticism essays cum meditations on the very nature of being alive.”—Emma Copley Eisenberg, author of The Third Rainbow Girl 
    A soulful exploration of the twelve astrological signs embodied by our living “stars”—from divas to philosophers, poets to punks—and the ways they can help us better understand ourselves and each other, from the wildly popular astrology columnist for New York magazine’s The Cut. 
    Whether you believe in it or not, astrology’s job has never been to give us a preordained vision of the future, nor to sort us into twelve neat personality types, but to provide the tools and language for delving into our weirdest, best, most thorny contradictions, and for understanding ourselves and each other in our full complexity. The stars and the planets then are more like mirrors that show us who we are, that give us an understanding of how to be and how to move through the world; how certain people do it differently, and what we can learn by studying them. 
    In Madame Clairevoyant’s Guide to the Stars, Claire Comstock-Gay brings the sky down to Earth and points to our popular “stars”—from Aretha Franklin to Mr. Rogers, from poets in Cancer to punk singers in Scorpio—to reveal what the sky has to teach us about being human. In this wise, lyrically written guide, she examines the twelve astrological signs, illuminating the ways each one is more complicated, beautiful, and surprising than you might have been told. Claire suggests that actually it’s okay, and even important, to be a seeker, to hunger for self-knowledge, and if astrology is the vehicle for that inquiry, so be it. 
    Madame Clairevoyant’s Guide to the Stars offers a clear introduction to the basics and an innovative new framework for creatively using astrology to illuminate our lives on earth. It’s a road map to our internal world, yes, but Claire also reminds us that it’s still our job to navigate it. Combining both heavenly insights and the earthly wisdom of writers like Cheryl Strayed and Heather Havrilesky and the poetry of Patricia Lockwood and Mary Oliver, Madame Clairevoyant’s Guide to the Stars offers a fresh, profound, and fun way to look at ourselves and others, and perhaps see each more clearly. And in that way, this book is not just beautiful, but transformative.

    Although the dangers of texting while driving are widely known, many people resist the idea that phone usage will impair their driving. And connectivity features in new cars have only made using technology behind the wheel more tempting. What will it take to change people's minds and behavior? Robert Rosenberger contends that a better understanding of why this combination of technologies is so dangerous could effectively adjust both habits and laws. 
     
     
     
    Rosenberger brings together ideas from philosophy and cognitive science to leverage a postphenomenological perspective that reveals how our smartphones make us such bad drivers. Reviewing decades of empirical studies in cognitive science, he shows that we have developed habits of perception regarding our compulsive technology use—habits that may wrest our attention away from the road. 
     
     
     
    Distracted develops innovative concepts for understanding technology-related habits and the ways that our relationships to our devices influence how we perceive the world. In turn, these ideas can help drivers be more cognizant of the effect that smartphone usage has on their perceptions, better inform efforts to enact stricter regulations, and help us all to be more reflective about the technologies that shape our lives.

    The term "resentment" has dominated US news analysis since November 2016. Despite its increased use, this word seems to defy easy categorization. Does "resentment" describe many interlocking sentiments, or is it just another way of saying "anger"? Does it suggest an irrational grievance, as opposed to a legitimate callout of injustice? Does it imply political leanings, or is it nonpartisan by nature? 
     
     
      
    In The Return of Resentment, Robert A. Schneider explores these questions and more, moving from eighteenth-century Britain to the aftermath of the French Revolution to social movements throughout the twentieth century. Schneider illustrates how resentment has morphed across time, coming to express a collective sentiment felt by people and movements across the political spectrum. In this history, we discover resentment's modernity and its ambiguity—how it can be used to dismiss legitimate critique and explain away violence, but also convey a moral stance that demands recognition. Schneider anatomizes the many ways resentment has been used to label present-day movements, from followers of Trump and supporters of Brexit to radical Islamicists and proponents of identity politics. Addressing our contemporary political situation in a novel way, The Return of Resentment challenges us to think critically about the roles different emotions play in politics.
