Summary

Growing up during The Troubles, I was determined that I was not going to be forced into Irish unity by terrorist violence or the threat of it. At the time, there was no space to think about a different future. But since then, we have had peace, however imperfect it may be, and we now have the opportunity to freely decide our fate.
Why will everyone living on the island of Ireland benefit from Irish unity?
How will the referendum be won?
Do we need to start preparing now?
What will happen when Ireland is reunified?
Disillusioned with the state of pro-union politics in Britain and Northern Ireland, scarred by what he and many others see as a detrimental vote for Brexit and determined to heal the wounds inflicted by partition, Ben Collins sets out a multitude of political, social and economic benefits of removing the border on the island of Ireland, once and for all.
Written from the viewpoint of an East Belfast-born former UUP campaigner, Irish Unity: Time to Prepare addresses the concerns of unionists in Northern Ireland and sceptics in the Republic and urges everyone on the island of Ireland to escape the crumbling United Kingdom so that we can build a peaceful and prosperous future together, for ourselves and our children.

    In Emotional Sobriety: Subtle Stages of Addiction, the author explores the hidden patterns of behaviour that often precede substance abuse, which contribute to a lifetime of unhealthy coping mechanisms. 
 
This insightful book delves into the subtle stages of addiction—behavioural habits that may not directly lead to drugs or alcohol but subconsciously set the stage for them. 
 
It challenges readers to recognize and confront these subtle stages of addiction. The concept of FIDO, the dog (Fitness, Interdependence, Discipline, Ownership), is introduced as a framework to cultivate emotional fitness, independence, and self-awareness, guiding individuals toward emotional freedom. 
 
This book is about discovering freedom through understanding behaviour patterns compassionately and fostering a deep sense of inner peace. 
 
Emotional Sobriety offers a path to self-awareness, spiritual insight, and a commitment to living with integrity.

When facing uncertainty brought about by a rapid shit in the intensity, diversity and complexity of any given moment, you’ll need your wits about you. This book delivers the ability to do just that.

In the second half of the book Jeff & Drew answer questions like…What if I feel extremely unsafe in a given moment?How do I avoid putting us in more danger?Will my home be safe if I leave?What are the types of risks I need to consider?How should I assess risks to myself and my family?How do I know if I’m ready to protect my family and business?

    It's time to move beyond the self-destructive coping "skills" that hold you back! 
 
 
 
The coping styles we develop in childhood are often the result of stressful or traumatic experiences. And while they once worked to keep us feeling safe, they do not serve us well in adulthood. This guide offers an innovative and evidence-based approach grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy, schema therapy, and attachment theory to help you break free from the coping habits that keep you stuck in a cycle of self-sabotaging negative thoughts and behaviors. 
 
 
 
In this book, you'll identify the maladaptive coping patterns you developed in childhood, understand why you developed them, and learn how to change those destructive habits standing between you and a happier life. You'll also discover powerful strategies to help you give voice to your unmet needs; and learn to cultivate clarity, security, and confidence in yourself and what you need. 
 
 
 
Dysfunctional coping styles are often the relics of damaging childhood experiences. With this guide, you can finally get unstuck from the habits that hinder your personal growth, get in the way of healthy relationships, and keep you from reaching your highest potential.

    Democracy Unmoored - Populism...

    Samuel Issacharoff

    The 2016 election of Donald Trump focused people's minds on populism, and most of the attention paid to the subject since has been on the threat it poses to wealthy democracies. In Democracy Unmoored, Samuel Issacharoff takes a far wider-angle view of the phenomenon, covering countries from across the globe: Brazil, Poland, Argentina, Turkey, India, Hungary, Venezuela, and more. Just as importantly, he focuses on populism's attack on the institutions of governance. Democracy requires two critical features: first, a commitment to repeat play such that political actors understand that what goes around comes around; and, second, institutional constraints so that the majority can prevail, albeit not by too much. Democracies must avoid the doomsday scenario in which the contending parties see the next election as the final choice between salvation and perdition. Issacharoff shows how populist governance undermines each of these two critical underpinnings of stable democracy, first by compressing the time horizon to the immediate, and second by eroding institutional constraints on strongman rule. At the same time, Issacharoff highlights the fact that ascendent populists were pushing in an open door as they found democracies in states of disrepair in the post-2008 world.
