  This gripping book by the prominent Russian journalist and analyst Sergey Shelin aims to explain why most Russians suddenly "understood" the need to attack Ukraine and Europe and are confident that their country is on the right path.
  
  Shelin, who was declared a "foreign agent" by the Putin regime and forced to leave Russia, argues that while most Russians now want a break from war, they are not going to apologize for the aggression and do not believe it stems from Vladimir Putin's actions. They have come to see Donald Trump as the only Western leader who understands and respects Russia and have embraced a kind of alternative West led by Trump and the European far right.

  Death of the Senate - My Front...

  Something is rotten in the U.S. Senate, and the disease has been spreading for some time. But Ben Nelson, former U.S. senator from Nebraska, is not going to let the institution destroy itself without a fight. Death of the Senate is a clear-eyed look inside the Senate chamber and a brutally honest account of the current political reality. 
  In his two terms as a Democratic senator from the red state of Nebraska, Nelson positioned himself as a moderate broker between his more liberal and conservative colleagues and became a frontline player in the most consequential fights of the Bush and Obama years. His trusted centrist position gave him a unique perch from which to participate in some of the last great rounds of bipartisan cooperation, such as the “Gang of 14” that considered nominees for the federal bench—and passed over a young lawyer named Brett Kavanaugh for being too partisan. 
  Nelson learned early on that the key to any negotiation at any level is genuine trust. With humor, insight, and firsthand details, Nelson makes the case that the “heart of the deal” is critical and describes how he focused on this during his time in the Senate. As seen through the eyes of a centrist senator from the Great Plains, Nelson shows how and why the spirit of bipartisanship declined and offers solutions that can restore the Senate to one of the world’s most important legislative bodies.

  Ever wondered why your college roommate wouldn't stop talking about "discursive formations" after one semester of critical theory? Curious how a bald Frenchman in a turtleneck became the patron saint of impenetrable academic writing? Want to understand Foucault without developing a migraine or a sudden urge to wear all black? 
  "Foucault's Power" is the antidote to pretentious philosophical obscurity you've been waiting for. This irreverent guide takes you on a sarcasm-soaked journey through Michel Foucault's most influential ideas—from his analysis of prisons and power to his baffling observations about sexuality and truth—all while mercilessly mocking the cult of incomprehensibility that has grown around him. 
  In these pages, you'll discover: 
  How Foucault transformed "people in power control information" into a revolutionary insight requiring 600 impenetrable pages 
  Why your open-plan office is actually a sophisticated surveillance mechanism (as if you needed another reason to hate it) 
  How Foucault managed to write extensively about sex without including a single useful tip 
  The convenient contradictions of a man who questioned all institutions while becoming the ultimate institutional insider 
  A bonus translation guide from Foucauldian jargon to human English! 
  Whether you're a confused student forced to read "Discipline and Punish," a curious reader wanting to understand what the fuss is about, or someone who enjoys watching intellectual pretension get skewered by razor-sharp wit, this book is your perfect introduction to the man who made simplicity unfashionable and gave academic writing permission to be terrible forever.
