  The Narcissistic Relationship...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  If you’ve ever wondered how a relationship that once felt so right turned into something so painful, we have something in common. 
  I know the cycle intimately—the intense highs, the soul-crushing lows, the confusion that makes you question your own sanity. I lived it for over a decade. What started as love became fear, control, and emotional destruction. It wasn’t always obvious; it crept in. 
  This book walks you through the six stages of a narcissistic relationship — from idealization to discard and hoovering — with compassion, clarity, and lived experience. You’ll learn what these patterns look like, why they’re so hard to escape, and most importantly, that you’re not crazy, and you’re not alone. 
  This isn’t theory — it’s survival turned insight. 
  This audiobook is also the first in a full series exploring the hidden pain points of being with a narcissist — gaslighting, triangulation, comparison, self-blame, obsession, and letting go. Each one is designed to meet you where you are and gently walk you toward truth, validation, and emotional freedom. 
  Whether you’re still in the relationship, just out, or still aching from the aftermath, I hope these words bring comfort — and a few of those powerful “oh my god, it wasn’t just me” moments. 
  You deserve peace. Maybe this is the starting point.

  Tanker War In the Gulf -...

  The past four decades have seen a number of United States military interventions in the Middle East, but only one of them is retrospectively seen as a success: Operation Earnest Will, the escort of Kuwaiti tankers through the Persian Gulf in 1987 and 1988. As an officer who participated in this operation who then served in the region as a diplomat, Tom Duffy offers a unique perspective on Earnest Will. He argues that the fact that Earnest Will was a limited war and that it was fought with navies was key to its success. Forty years later, this operation remains relevant to security policy, especially with regard to a potential conflict with China.This new and comprehensive account discusses every aspect of the operation, including the role of other navies in the Gulf at the time. Relevant strategic and political elements are covered, such as parallel activities in the United Nations Security Council and the role of United Nations Security Council Resolutions in ending the war.  Considering the short-, medium-, and long-term impacts of Operation Earnest Will, Duffy explains how this maritime, limited war option illustrates key concepts from classical strategic thinkers, and why it is a demonstrably effective way to advance political goals and an example to keep in mind when facing future challenges in the Middle East and East Asia.

  "Are You Calling Me a Racist?" -...

  Despite decades of anti-racism workshops and diversity policies in corporations, schools, and nonprofit organizations, racial conflict has only increased in recent years. "Are You Calling Me a Racist?" reveals why these efforts have failed to effectively challenge racism and offers a new way forward. 
   
   
   
  Drawing from her own experience, as well as extensive interviews and analyses of contemporary events, Sarita Srivastava shows that racial encounters among well-meaning people are ironically hindered by the emotional investment they have in being seen as good people. Diversity workshops devote energy to defending, recuperating, educating, and inwardly reflecting, with limited results, and often make things worse. These "Feel-Good politics of race," Srivastava explains, train our focus on the therapeutic and educational, rather than on concrete practices that could move us towards true racial equity. In this type of approach to diversity training, people are more concerned about being called a racist than they are about changing racist behavior. 
   
   
   
  "Are You Calling Me a Racist?" is a much-needed challenge to the status quo of diversity training, and will serve as a valuable resource for anyone dedicated to dismantling racism in their communities, educational institutions, public or private organizations, and social movements.

  Deconstructing Racism - A Path...

  Barbara Crain Major and Joseph Barndt bring ninety combined years of experience as community organizers, teachers, and anti-racism trainers in community and church settings to this book. In Deconstructing Racism, they propose the deconstruction of racism's roots within systems and institutions that have been created, both structurally and legally, to serve white people. 
   
   
   
  The authors seek to unmask the complexities of racism and the invisible patterns that keep it in place. There is no quick fix, but they believe racism can be deconstructed and undone. In order to do this, they identify and address race-based identity, history, and cultural issues rooted in current systems. 
   
   
   
  Three chapters specifically address societal systems and provide anti-racism strategies for community organizers. Three chapters address racism as rooted in systems in the church and challenge people of faith to seek racial healing through understanding, honest confession, true reconciliation, and reconstructed church institutions. A final chapter outlines a way forward to and through a new era of anti-racist reconstruction. This way forward includes a new anti-racist mission statement, a new model of decision-making power, and new processes for accountability.
