  The Economy of Rome - Trade...

  The Roman economy was built upon a complex and interdependent system that evolved from its agrarian roots into a vast network of trade, production, and commerce. From the early Republic to the height of the Empire, Rome’s economic foundation was shaped by its reliance on agriculture, slave labor, and a structured monetary system. These key components allowed the Roman state to sustain its military conquests, support its urban populations, and facilitate long-distance trade across the Mediterranean and beyond. 
  Agriculture served as the backbone of the Roman economy, with the majority of the population engaged in farming. Small-scale subsistence farming dominated early Roman society, but as the Republic expanded, wealthy landowners acquired vast estates known as latifundia. These estates were worked by slaves and tenant farmers, producing surplus crops such as wheat, olives, and grapes, which were essential to both local consumption and trade. The shift from independent farming to large-scale agricultural estates increased economic disparities but also enabled Rome to support a growing urban population and supply its armies. 
  Slavery played a crucial role in sustaining the Roman economy. Enslaved people were not only laborers in agriculture but also worked in mines, workshops, and domestic households. The steady influx of slaves, primarily through military conquests, allowed Rome to maintain high levels of production and economic growth. The reliance on slave labor, however, also created structural weaknesses, as the economy was dependent on a continuous supply of enslaved workers, making it vulnerable during times of military decline.

  Born on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Samuel Ringgold Ward (1817–c. 1869) escaped enslavement and would become a leading figure in the struggle for Black freedom, citizenship, and equality. He was extolled by his contemporary Frederick Douglass for his "depth of thought, fluency of speech, readiness of wit, logical exactness." Until now, his story has been largely untold. 
   
   
   
  Ward, a newspaper editor, Congregational minister, and advocate for the temperance movement, was considered one of the leading orators of his time. After the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 he fled to Canada, where he lectured widely to improve conditions for formerly enslaved people who had settled there. Ward then went to Britain as an agent of the Canadian Antislavery Society and published his influential book Autobiography of a Fugitive Negro. He never returned to the United States, and he died in obscurity in Jamaica. 
   
   
    
  Despite Ward's prominent role in the abolitionist movement, his story has been lost because of the decades he spent in exile. In this book, R. J. M. Blackett brings light to Ward's life and his important role in the struggle against slavery and discrimination, and to the personal price he paid for confronting oppression.

  As China rises to true superpower status, the United States must take immediate action to catch up in AI capabilities—or facefall disastrously behind technologically, economically, and militarily. 
   
   
   
  Over the past decade, China has quietly and methodically moved into a near-leadership position in artificial intelligence technologies on a global scale. Meanwhile, the United States has responded ineffectively, weighed down by politics, bureaucracy, and an absence of clear strategy. 
   
   
   
  In the near future, wars will be fought not over land, but over data. Machines will quickly discover individualized treatments for diseases, and with the help of virtual reality, AI will inspect buildings that have not yet been built. With the rising interest in these technologies by both China and the US, who will emerge as the victor of this technological race? 
   
   
   
  When AI Rules the World is an investigation and call to action into AI technologies for a nation that does not yet comprehend the full gravity of the AI revolution. The United States is losing the race for AI dominance, and the stakes couldn't be higher.

  A personal meditation on love in the shadow of white privilege and racism 
   
   
   
  Child is the story of Judy Goldman's relationship with Mattie Culp, the Black woman who worked for her family as a live-in maid and helped raise her—the unconscionable scaffolding on which the relationship was built and the deep love. It is also the story of Mattie's child, who was left behind to be raised by someone else. Judy, now eighty, cross-examines what it was to be a privileged white child in the Jim Crow South, how a bond can evolve in and out of step with a changing world, and whether we can ever tell the whole truth, even to ourselves. It is an incandescent book of small moments, heart-warming, heartbreaking, and, ultimately, inspiring.
