His five years in the White House saw reduction of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, détente with the Soviet Union and China, the first crewed Moon landings, and the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Nixon's second term ended early, when he became the only US president to resign from office, as a result of the Watergate scandal.

  This book contains these titles: 
  - The Rise of Social Media: The rise of social media has reshaped the way people connect, communicate, and consume information. Over the past two decades, digital platforms have evolved from niche online communities to global networks that influence nearly every aspect of modern life. Social media is no longer just a tool for staying in touch with friends and family—it has become a powerful force in politics, business, entertainment, and culture. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, understanding the impact of these platforms is essential.  
  - The Rise of Remote Work: The COVID-19 pandemic marked a turning point in how the world approaches work. Overnight, offices across the globe emptied as organizations scrambled to adapt to a new reality: remote work. What began as an emergency measure to ensure continuity during a global crisis evolved into a massive experiment that reshaped traditional workplace norms. For many, the home became an office, kitchen tables transformed into desks, and digital platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams replaced conference rooms.  
  - The Fall of the Berlin Wall: The Berlin Wall stands as one of the most defining symbols of the Cold War, a stark reminder of the ideological divide that shaped global politics in the second half of the 20th century. For nearly three decades, it separated families, friends, and a nation, embodying the tension between the communist East and the capitalist West. Its fall on November 9, 1989, marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War and set the stage for German reunification, forever altering the political landscape of Europe and the world.

  Experience the height of stream of consciousness storytelling with Virginia Woolf's most autobiographical and evocative work, To the Lighthouse. Set on the Isle of Skye, the novel centers on the Ramsay family and their visits to the Scottish coast, framed by the anticipation of a simple trip to a nearby lighthouse—a trip that will take ten years and a lifetime of emotional change to complete.
