  The Privateers - How...

  A deep-dive investigation of education privatization that reveals voucher programs as the faulty products of decades of work by wealthy patrons and influential conservatives 
   
   
   
  This thought-provoking work traces the origins of voucher-based education reform to mid-twentieth-century fears over school desegregation. It shows how, in the intervening decades, a cabal of billionaire conservatives supporting a host of special political interests—including economic libertarianism, religious choice, and parental rights—have converged around the issue of education freedom in an ongoing culture war. Through deliberate policymaking, legislation, and litigation, Cowen reveals, an insular advocacy network has enacted a flawed system for education finance driven largely by dogma. 
   
   
   
  Far from realizing the purported goal of educational equity, privatization is failing students and exacerbating income inequality, Cowen finds. He cites multiple research studies that conclude that voucher programs return poorer academic outcomes, including lower test scores on state exams, especially among students who are at greater academic risk because of their race, their religion, their gender identity, or their family's income. Continued advancement of these policies, Cowen argues, is an assault on public education as a defining American institution.

  What if the nature of reality is built on contradictions? 
  In Parmenides, Plato presents a dialogue unlike any other—one that turns philosophy inward to critique its own foundations. Through a dramatic meeting between Socrates and Parmenides, we’re led into the depths of metaphysical inquiry. Is the theory of Forms coherent? Can one truly speak of “being” without paradox? 
  This modern adaptation brings clarity to Plato’s dense logic and rigorous questioning, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in one of philosophy’s greatest challenges. 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  •	A sharp critique of the theory of Forms by the philosopher who first developed it 
  •	A journey through eight logical hypotheses that test the meaning of unity and being 
  •	The philosophical origins of metaphysics and dialectical reasoning 
  •	A clear, modernized translation that makes complex thought more accessible 
  Begin your journey into the heart of ancient metaphysical philosophy today with Parmenides—Plato’s boldest and most enigmatic dialogue.

  The Fearless Fifteen: How the SAS Changed the Face of War ★★★★★ "A masterpiece of military history that reads like an adventure novel" 
  They were fifteen extraordinary men who transformed a desperate wartime experiment into the world's most elite fighting force. From Cambridge-educated linguists to cheeky cockneys, Irish rugby legends to Yorkshire farm boys, these individuals forged the Special Air Service and changed warfare forever. 
  Author Quentin Drummond Anderson's fascination began at seventeen when stonewalled by a Coldstream Guards colonel about the Iranian Embassy siege. Years of acquaintance with SAS veterans revealed men of quiet confidence and rigid discipline—but also humour and authenticity that came from serving in an organisation unlike any other. 
  While the BBC's "Rogue Heroes" captured the spirit, questions remained: Who were these men really? What drove them to volunteer for what many considered suicide missions? 
  Meet the Legends: 
  David Stirling—the aristocratic visionary who sold his revolutionary concept to the highest command levels. 
  Paddy Mayne—the Irish rugby international whose tactical brilliance made him the most decorated SAS officer, yet controversy still surrounds his missing Victoria Cross. 
  Jock Lewes—the Oxford innovator whose technical genius created the weapons and training that made SAS operations possible. 
  Anders Lassen—the Danish warrior who became the only foreign Victoria Cross recipient in WWII, killed days before peace. 
  Johnny Cooper—the youngest Original who lied about his age, pioneered jungle warfare, and embodied the Regiment's evolution. 
  And ten more whose stories have never been fully told. 
  Narrated by the best -selling author of 'Broken Lives' Colonel Bob Stewart DSO
