  The world is changing, it's getting increasingly more difficult to be a young person and to raise young people. Without a plan to navigate the change, you'll end up in ice-cold water you thought was warm. We get so attached to the identity of being a student, or an athlete, or the fact that we'll never be young again that we end up losing sight of what we can sustain long-term.  
  If you're in school now in your 20s, it's likely you're performing at less than 50% of your maximum potential. This book will help you pump those numbers up. 
  The Four Year Fantasy explores how College and University life can shape young adults in irreversible ways (GOOD and BAD). It outlines the skewed notions of what "the experience" is, and is meant to wake people up before they waste their "Superhuman years." This book offers insights on how to seize opportunities for personal growth and outlines the author's journey to success which includes breakthrough realizations that came from navigating the world with the social proof of a University student. 
  It's a student's guide to success, and a parent's guide to raising strong, smart, independent, and purpose-driven people. 
  For many readers, this will be the last three-hour lecture you’ll ever sit through...

  Revenge of the Rich

  Austin Mitchell's book is the first comprehensive study of the rise, fall and consequences of neoliberalism in Britain and New Zealand, the two countries which adopted the new economics most enthusiastically, became its poster boys in the eyes of right-wing economists and media AND suffered the most severe consequences.
  Growing up in the affluent years of a post-war settlement which brought full employment, economic growth and a welfare state to both countries, Mitchell entered Parliament in 1977 as Labour MP for Grimsby, just as the Settlement was failing. It fell apart because of balance of payments problems and the industrial struggles of what was becoming a zero-sum competition between social groups.
  This began the long march down dead-end street, first in Britain under Margaret Thatcher, then in New Zealand under Roger Douglas and the 1984 Labour government. Monetarism, the triumph of markets, the pruning of the state and particularly its welfare provisions and the belief in tax cuts to incentivise the wealthy all combined to turn Mitchell's long service in Parliament into a fighting retreat. The social balance of both countries was shifted to wealth and finance, away from industry and the people.
  The rich took their revenge. Mitchell chronicles the consequences in low growth, zero-sum politics, growing poverty and increasing inequality. He demonstrates how neoliberalism has failed to deliver on its promises and how wealth has trickled upwards not down. He concludes with the turning of the tide by a peasant's revolt leading to governmental and policy changes in both Britain and New Zealand. Ultimately he finds useful lessons in the failure of neoliberalism and points to a society and an economic policy which will be fairer for all.

  The World Trade Organization - A...

  The World Trade Organization (WTO) is scarcely ten years old, but even in these early years of its existence it has generated debate, controversy, and even outrage. Rulings on beef hormones and tuna-dolphin cases provide graphic examples of how the organization regulates and intrudes into areas of individual consumer choice, ethical preferences, and cultural habits. This deep and far-ranging impact of the WTO on peoples' everyday lives means that it is not just an institution of interest to economists, but to everyone, a fact that was perhaps most graphically illustrated in the popular demonstrations at the 1999 Seattle Ministerial. Such protests have become a regular feature associated with most high-level meetings of the WTO.This Very Short Introduction will provide a timely and carefully considered explanation of what the WTO is, what it does, and how it goes about executing its tasks. A clear understanding of the mandate, structure, and functioning of the WTO is essential to appreciate the controversy behind the organization, and how far it deserves the reputation that it has come to acquire.
