Summary

Presidential Shifts explores how changes in presidential administrations have fundamentally reshaped American politics and policy. It examines pivotal moments when transitions in leadership led to significant shifts in governance, societal norms, and America's global role. The book analyzes the anatomy of power transfer, the evolution of policy paradigms under different presidential styles, and the lasting impacts of these shifts, offering insights into American political history.

 
The book's structure unfolds in three parts, starting with the theoretical framework for understanding presidential power and policy change. It then presents case studies, such as the shift from Hoover to Roosevelt during the Great Depression and Reagan succeeding Carter amid economic stagnation. These examples highlight how new presidents often bring distinct policy priorities that dramatically affect society.

 
The book uses diverse sources, including presidential archives and statistical analyses, to quantify the impact of presidential policies. Ultimately, Presidential Shifts provides a comparative analysis of presidential shifts across historical periods, offering a fresh perspective by focusing on the discontinuities in American political history. It bridges political science, history, and economics, making it valuable for anyone interested in American politics and its leadership transitions.

    Lost to the World - A Memoir of...

    Shahbaz Taseer

    Shahbaz Taseer’s memoir of his five-year-long captivity at the hands of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. In late August 2011, Shahbaz Taseer was driving to his office in Lahore when he was dragged from his car at gunpoint and kidnapped by members of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU), a Taliban-affiliated Uzbek terrorist group. Shahbaz’s father, the late Pakistani governor, had recently been assassinated. His crime: speaking in support of a Christian woman who had been accused of blasphemy and sentenced to death. Though Taseer himself wasn’t much interested in politics, he was somewhat of a public figure, and he represented a more tolerant, internationally connected Pakistan that the IMU despised.What followed was nearly five years of torture and harrowing danger while Taseer was held captive, his fate determined by the infighting of the IMU, the Taliban, and ISIS. Lost to the World is his memoir of that time—a story of extraordinary sorrow but also of goodness and faith. While deeply dramatic, this tale is also comedic; for Taseer, humor, as much as the Koran, provided a light by which to see his own humanity, even under the most inhumane conditions, and to find a way back to his family.In a time when Western leaders use fear-mongering rhetoric to paint all followers of Islam as dangerous fundamentalists, Lost to the World illustrates the chasm between Muslim terrorists and ordinary Muslim citizens, and how terrorist organizations gain strength from the war on terror.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    The Invisible Manual is a raw, intimate memoir about growing up autistic without knowing it — and the lifelong consequences of living in a world built for minds unlike your own. Told with honesty and precision, it reveals what autism in women truly looks like behind the mask: constant self-monitoring, sensory overwhelm, people-pleasing, and the crushing exhaustion of pretending to be “normal.” 
    From childhood to adulthood, the anonymous author shares decades of quiet struggle: missed signs dismissed as shyness, friendships that never made sense, invisible social rules, perfectionism that hid the truth, and the profound relief of finally seeing oneself in a late autism diagnosis. 
    This is not a clinical guide — it is the lived experience of high-masking autistic womanhood. A life spent compensating, questioning, and wondering why everything felt harder than it seemed for everyone else. 
    Listeners exploring female autism, late-diagnosed autism, high masking, or the lifelong feeling of being “different” will find this memoir deeply validating. It offers not instructions, but recognition — a mirror for anyone who has spent years searching for one.

    The first full-length treatment of Ed Broadbent’s ideas and remarkable seven-decade engagement in public life
    		 
    Part memoir, part history, part political manifesto, Seeking Social Democracy offers the first full-length treatment of Ed Broadbent’s ideas and remarkable seven-decade engagement in public life. In dialogue with three collaborators from different generations, Broadbent leads readers through a life spent fighting for equality in Parliament and beyond: exploring the formation of his social democratic ideals, his engagement on the international stage, and his relationships with historical figures from Pierre Trudeau and Fidel Castro to Tommy Douglas, René Lévesque, and Willy Brandt. From the formative minority Parliament of 1972–1974 to the contentious national debate over Canada’s constitution to the free trade election of 1988, the book chronicles the life and thought of one of Canada’s most respected political leaders and public intellectuals from his childhood in 1930s Oshawa to the present day. Broadbent’s analysis also points toward the future, offering lessons to a new generation on how principles can inform action and social democracy can look beyond neoliberalism. The result is an engaging, timely, and sweeping analysis of Canadian politics, philosophy, and the nature of democratic leadership.

    The lecture gives a short, accessible introduction to the life and work of Immanuel Kant. It concentrates on Kant's theoretical and moral philosophy as well as on his views on religion and explains how these three are related to each other in the system of the most imporant philosopher of the German Enlightenment. "Since I have robbed the will of every inducement that might arise for it as a consequence of obeying any particular law nothing is left but the conformity of action to universal law as such, and this alone must serve the will as its principle. That is to say, I ought never to act except in such a way that I can also will that my maxim should become a universal law." (IV, 402)
