  The Bitter End - The 2020...

  The year 2020 was a tumultuous time in American politics. It brought a global pandemic, protests for racial justice, and a razor-thin presidential election outcome. It culminated in an attack on the US Capitol that attempted to deny Joe Biden's victory. The Bitter End explores the long-term trends and short-term shocks that shaped this dramatic year and what these changes could mean for the future. 
   
   
   
  John Sides, Chris Tausanovitch, and Lynn Vavreck demonstrate that Trump's presidency intensified the partisan politics of the previous decades. Presidential elections have become calcified, with less chance of big swings in either party's favor. Republicans remained loyal to Trump and kept the election close, despite Trump's many scandals, a recession, and the pandemic. But in a narrowly divided electorate even small changes can have big consequences. The pandemic was a case in point: when Trump pushed to reopen the country even as infections mounted, support for Biden increased. The authors explain that, paradoxically, even as Biden's win came at a time of heightened party loyalty, there remained room for shifts that shaped the election's outcome. Ultimately, the events of 2020 showed that instead of the country coming together to face national challenges—the pandemic, George Floyd's murder, and the Capitol riot—these challenges only reinforced divisions.

  Ancient Greece’s Most Important...

  Editors Charles River

  Nearly 2,500 years after the Golden Age of Athens, people across the world today continue to be fascinated by the ancient Greeks, but who did the Ancient Greeks look up to? The answer to that question can be found in Homer’s The Odyssey, in which Odysseus makes note of “a great town there, Cnossus, where Minos reigned.” It was perhaps the earliest reference to the Minoan civilization, a mysterious ancient civilization that historians and archaeologists still puzzle over, but a civilization that renowned historian Will Durant described as "the first link in the European chain.” Nearly 2,000 years before Homer wrote his epic poems, the Minoan civilization was centered on the island of Crete, a location that required the Minoans to be a regional sea power. And indeed they were, stretching across the Aegean Sea from about 2700-1500 BCE with trade routes extending all the way to Egypt. 
  In the Archaic and Classical periods, Rhodes often stood as a prime exemplar of the highs and lows of its fellow Greek cities, and as the largest island of the Dodecanese, Rhodes’ history is largely in line with that of the rest of those islands. Rhodes would reach the zenith of its power in the Hellenistic period following the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BCE. Even as the rest of the city-states waned compared to the much larger kingdoms of Alexander’s successors in Egypt and Asia, Rhodes would come to the forefront as a main power in the Greek world, standing toe-to-toe with these Hellenistic kingdoms.  
  It was during the Classical era that, especially under the tyrants (dictators) of the Greek city of Syracuse, Sicily came the closest to being governed as a single, unified, and independent state. In time, it came to challenge the powerful trade empire of Carthage, a former Phoenician colony in North Africa, and it vied with the cities and kingdoms of mainland Greece for primacy in the Greek world.

  The pursuit of speed has always captivated the human imagination, driving innovation and inspiring some of the greatest technological advancements in history. From the Wright brothers’ first powered flight to the jet-propelled marvels of the 20th century, aviation has relentlessly pushed the boundaries of what was once thought possible. Among these achievements, the fastest planes in history hold a special allure, embodying the pinnacle of engineering ingenuity and daring ambition.  
    
  This book delves into the enigmatic world of high-speed aviation, where myths and reality often intertwine. The fastest planes are not merely machines; they are symbols of national pride, strategic power, and the unyielding human desire to conquer the skies. Their stories are riddled with secrecy, as many of these aircraft were developed in the shadows of classified programs. Some remain shrouded in mystery, with questions about their true capabilities and existence lingering decades after their supposed flights.  
    
  Central to this narrative is the SR-71 Blackbird, an engineering masterpiece that redefined what it meant to be fast. Known as the "Habu" to those who flew it, this aircraft’s extraordinary performance—combined with its striking appearance—cemented its legendary status. Yet, the SR-71 is just one chapter in the larger saga of aviation speed. The rumored Aurora project, whispers of hypersonic successors, and the race to develop spaceplanes all contribute to a tapestry of intrigue that continues to evolve today.
