  Technology has been a driving force behind human progress, shaping societies and transforming the way people live, work, and communicate. From the earliest tools created by prehistoric humans to the advanced artificial intelligence of today, technological advancements have continuously redefined the boundaries of possibility. Understanding this evolution provides insight into how innovations have shaped civilization and what the future may hold. 
  The historical development of technology dates back to the invention of simple tools made from stone, wood, and metal. Early human civilizations relied on these tools for survival, gradually advancing to more sophisticated techniques in agriculture, construction, and warfare. The discovery of fire, the wheel, and the development of writing systems marked significant milestones that laid the foundation for future progress. The Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries ushered in a period of rapid technological growth, introducing mechanized production, steam power, and transportation systems that reshaped economies and societies. 
  Key innovations have played a crucial role in shaping modern civilization. The invention of electricity revolutionized industries and led to the creation of household appliances, lighting, and communication systems. The 20th century saw remarkable advancements, including the telephone, radio, television, and, eventually, computers. These inventions not only improved the quality of life but also connected people across vast distances, fostering global communication and collaboration. The internet, developed in the late 20th century, became one of the most transformative innovations, changing the way individuals access information, conduct business, and interact socially.

  When he woke up in jail in Fairfax County, Virginia, in 2015, Tim Murtaugh had no way of knowing he'd be a senior leader on the reelection campaign for the president of the United States less than four years later. 
   
   
   
  What began as a form of high school amusement quickly became an addiction, which over decades would lead Murtaugh to the edge of ruin. Able to beat the disease of alcoholism only under the threat of losing everything, and with the support of a loving wife and family, Murtaugh managed to recover, revive his career, and make it to the top of the political world. 
   
   
   
  Travel along on the 2020 Trump campaign as Murtaugh shares stories—never published before—from his two years as communications director, navigating a hostile media, the COVID-19 pandemic, highly anticipated debates, Election Day 2020, January 6, and life on the most-watched political campaign in world history. 
   
   
   
  Swing Hard in Case You Hit It is a redemption story unlike any other—from being on the verge of complete self-destruction to flying on Air Force One with President Donald J. Trump—that doesn't come with a happy Hollywood ending.

  Listen, your mind isn't broken - it's just doing what minds do when they get stuck in rigid, irrational thinking patterns. After decades of clinical practice, I've seen how OCD operates: it's not some mysterious force, but a pattern of demanding absolute certainty in an uncertain world. 
  This book cuts through the mystification and gets to what works: learning to accept uncertainty, challenging perfectionist demands, and building tolerance for discomfort. No sugar-coating, no magical thinking - just evidence-based techniques for reducing your suffering. 
  You'll learn to spot the difference between healthy concerns and obsessive thinking, develop more flexible responses to triggering situations, and most importantly, stop fighting with your own thoughts. Because here's the reality: the more you desperately try to control your thoughts, the more they control you. 
  Let's get to work on transforming your relationship with uncertainty. It won't always be comfortable, but neither is living under OCD's thumb.

  What steps are needed to make life better and more convivial? The Second Convivialist Manifesto (2020) has presented a short diagnosis of the current crises and sketches of a possible and desirable future. It has been a necessary work of theoretical synthesis, but preserving a viable world also requires passion. It is thus urgent to show what people would gain from a shift to a post-neoliberal and post-growth convivialist future. This volume includes a theoretical debate on convivialism which reflects dystopias and shows the multiple and major obstacles that convivialism will have to face. Mainly, however, the contributors to this volume create sketches of a convivial future and collect accounts of another future world which is attractive for as many as possible.
