Summary

The 1990 United States Census, produced by the Bureau of the Census, presents a comprehensive dataset that captures the demographic, social, and economic characteristics of the American population at the dawn of the 1990s. This second edition not only provides meticulous statistical information but also contextualizes the data within the broader socio-political landscape of the era. The Census employs a clear and accessible literary style, effectively making complex data digestible for both researchers and policymakers. Rich in tables, charts, and comparisons, it reflects the growing sophistication of census methodologies while retaining an archival sensibility relevant to studies in population trends, urbanization, and migration patterns. The Bureau of the Census, an agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce, has a storied history of collecting and analyzing data that serves as a backbone for governmental resource allocation, social policy formation, and academic research. Established in 1790, the agency has evolved, especially in the wake of changing demographics and technological advancements, to more accurately reflect the diverse tapestry of American society. This particular Census reflects significant historical events, such as the end of the Cold War and emerging issues like immigration, that may have influenced its data collection methods. This vital resource is an indispensable tool for historians, sociologists, and policy analysts interested in understanding demographic shifts and their implications for contemporary America. Readers will appreciate the depth of information and the clarity of presentation that enables a nuanced analysis of the socio-economic landscape of the time. The 1990 United States Census remains a crucial reference for anyone looking to ground their studies in a data-driven exploration of the nation's evolving identity.

    The UK has, in recent years, been suffering from what is nothing short of an economic crisis. Growth has now completely stalled in those western democracies, the UK included, where high government spending and high taxes have steadily burgeoned, decade after decade. Free-market economies now threaten to leave us behind in terms of wealth, opportunity and standards of living. At the end of Rishi Sunak's 2024 government, expenditure was at 45 per cent of GDP and taxes were 36 per cent and rising – yet still nowhere near sufficient to cover public expenditure. The government's net annual borrowing is now a completely unsustainable 4.4 per cent of GDP, with our overall national debt growing rapidly and alarmingly.
In this arresting and powerful manifesto for economic change, Jon Moynihan analyses the UK's decades-long stagnant economy and looks at what can be done to resuscitate it. Combining rigorous research with unparalleled business experience, he explores the key dynamics affecting economic growth, ranging from government borrowing, expenditure, tax and regulation to the way national resources are deployed on non-productive and futile, growth-stifling endeavours.
Ultimately, Moynihan shows that unless we act now to reverse the decline, by radically restructuring our economy to stimulate economic growth, the UK risks stagnation, financial collapse and a long-term disintegration in our standard of living. Ignore his warning at your peril.

    The Black Death, one of the most devastating pandemics in human history, left an indelible mark on the medieval world. From the mid-14th century, this catastrophic event wiped out an estimated one-third of Europe's population, with ramifications extending far beyond the immediate loss of life. Its legacy endures, not only in historical accounts but also in the cultural, social, and economic transformations it triggered. 
  
The pandemic’s unparalleled scale of mortality created a sense of collective trauma that shaped the mindset of medieval society. Fear, uncertainty, and grief were pervasive, leading to widespread shifts in religious devotion and philosophical thought. For some, the plague strengthened their faith, prompting public acts of penance and increased church attendance. For others, it inspired skepticism about religious authority, paving the way for future reforms and dissent. This dual response reflects the Black Death's role as both a destroyer of tradition and a catalyst for change. 
  
Economically, the pandemic dramatically altered the medieval labor market. The decimation of the population led to acute labor shortages, forcing landowners to offer better wages and conditions to retain workers. This shift empowered peasants and contributed to the gradual erosion of the feudal system, giving rise to a nascent middle class. The newfound leverage of laborers sowed the seeds of social mobility, challenging the rigid hierarchies that had long defined medieval life.

    24 hours in the airport. 24 hours to betray my husband. 
An avalanche blocked the roads. Our ski trip has taken a bizarre, nasty turn. 
It started on the plane. I sat in the middle of a college hockey team traveling for a photoshoot. The air was thick with their deep, vibrating voices. A musky scent flowed into my lungs… 
I did something disgusting. I hope nobody noticed. 
Now we’ve arrived, and we’re trapped at the airport. The hockey guys keep looking at me. One of them wants me to buy them dinner. 
We have to spend the night here with them. I’m all jittery. My mind is filled with strange, uncomfortable thoughts. 
I shouldn’t do this. I need to stay strong. I need to resist.
