The Impeachment of the House of Brunswick

Charles Bradlaugh

Beschreibung

In "The Impeachment of the House of Brunswick," Charles Bradlaugh presents a provocative exploration of political accountability and the limits of monarchical power, focusing on the British royal family during the early 19th century. Utilizing a sharp, incendiary style often characteristic of Bradlaugh's work, this book combines historical narrative with a critical analysis of political ethics. It places the Brunswick family under a metaphorical microscope, questioning their legitimacy and actions in the context of a rapidly changing political landscape, characterized by the rise of democratic sentiments and the growing dissatisfaction with autocratic rule. Charles Bradlaugh was a prominent political activist, a staunch advocate for atheism, and a radical thinker known for his confrontational style. His experiences in the 19th-century socio-political turbulence—particularly the fight for greater civil liberties and the separation of church and state—shaped his views on monarchy and governance. Bradlaugh's own tumultuous encounters with the legal and political systems lend a distinct urgency to his arguments, as he reveals systemic injustices that threaten democratic values. This book is essential reading for those interested in the intersection of political philosophy and history. It serves not only as a critique of a specific royal lineage but also as a timeless reminder of the necessity for accountability in governance. Readers who cherish historical analysis intertwined with vibrant rhetoric will find Bradlaugh's work both enlightening and challenging.

Parenting Like an Australian -...

Damien Cave

Raise kids to be strong, confident, and happy—by parenting the Australian way 
 
 
 
Damien Cave and his wife Diana thought they understood what it meant to take risks. As two journalists who traveled the world covering pressing international stories, they were convinced they had seen it all; that is, until they moved to Australia. Suddenly, their kids were being thrown into giant Pacific waves in intensive lifeguard bootcamps, and they were expected to be present and participating instead of obsessing about work or politics. They soon noticed what seemed to be a societal surrender of control to nature and community. In other words? Their American customs were completely disrupted. Living their new beachside life didn't end up being a relaxing retreat, but instead caused a complete reevaluation of the ways they acted as people and parents—and it all had to do with taking unexpected risks and learning how to manage them. 
 
 
 
New York Times Australia Bureau Chief Damien Cave delivers an impactful and informative account of how risk taking in parenting, and in all aspects of life, creates happier, healthier individuals and communities. Cave's exploration of Australian parenting culture, through gripping research and storytelling, will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about safety, risk, parenting, and, ultimately, being human.

The Irish in the Resistance -...

John Morgan, Clodagh Finn

'You simply couldn't stand by with your arms folded.'
These were the words of Samuel Beckett who famously returned to France from a holiday in Ireland when World War II broke out. His clandestine work against the Nazi occupation of Europe is well documented, but there were many other ordinary Irish people who joined the underground network.
Some took up arms. Others gathered intelligence, sheltered fugitives, committed acts of sabotage or broke codes. This new history tells the stories of those forgotten Irish men and women.
Discover Captain John Keany from Cork, who parachuted into occupied Italy to help the local Resistance; Margaret Kelly, the Dublin founder of the world-famous Bluebell Girls cabaret troupe in Paris, who hid her Jewish husband; and Catherine Crean, the Irish governess born on Moore Street, Dublin, who was sent to a concentration camp for helping Allied airmen in Belgium.
These, and many more stories, span the course of World War II and remind us of the power of individuals to make a difference.
'An eye-opening account of how ordinary people caught up in extraordinary situations helped to fight the Nazis' David McCullagh

The Race Ahead - Overcoming...

Dr. J. Bruce Stewart

In Dr. J. Bruce Stewart's transformative work, "The Race Ahead," readers are taken on a compelling journey into the depths of racial bias ingrained in American society and the mind itself. This groundbreaking book not only diagnoses the presence and origins of racial biases but also prescribes a sophisticated blueprint for eradicating them, aimed at rewiring how we perceive and interact across racial lines.
Dr. Stewart begins by exploring the psychological foundations of bias, focusing particularly on the amygdala's role in triggering automatic and subconscious responses associated with fear and othering. He explains how these psychological processes, though once essential to human survival, now perpetuate division and misunderstanding in a diverse society. Using relatable anecdotes and rigorous research, Stewart shows how deep-seated fears and stereotypes shape our interactions, often in ways we are not consciously aware of.
Central to the book is the "Last Mile" problem, a concept Stewart uses to describe the final and most challenging steps in the journey toward racial equity. These steps involve not only acknowledging and understanding biases but actively implementing strategies to dismantle them within ourselves and our institutions. Stewart argues that this last mile is fraught with complexities and challenges, as it requires changing longstanding societal structures and confronting uncomfortable truths.
Part historical review, part psychological exploration, and part sociological study, "The Race Ahead" delves into the origins and perpetuations of racial myths and stereotypes. From the misrepresentations in media and literature that shape public perception to the policies and practices in education and law enforcement that reinforce racial disparities, Stewart leaves no stone unturned.
"The Race Ahead" is an urgent call to action, demanding a radical shift in both mindset and behavior from all sectors of society. It challenges readers to confront their biases
