  “Smart, patriotic, and readable, this book is what our cynical culture needs.” — Pete Hegseth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Battle for the American Mind 
  America is full of inspiring heroes. 
  Greatness is not a chance—it is a choice. George Washington didn’t simply wake up as one of the greatest men in human history. His greatness was the sum of a lifetime of difficult and consequential choices. 
  In Lessons in Liberty, Jeremy S. Adams distills inspiring advice from the lives of extraordinary Americans from our past. 
  George Washington’s lifelong struggle to conquer his temper makes him a model for self-help and self-improvement.Daniel Inouye was a beloved Japanese American senator who carried out daring missions in World War II, despite being subjected to discrimination by the very nation he decided to defend.Eleven-year-old Clara Barton’s role in nursing her injured brother back to health instilled the courage and ferocity that would later empower her to pioneer new nursing techniques during the Civil War. 
  Adams has been an educator for more than a quarter century. Teaching a new generation of students who suffer with anxiety, passivity, and a cynical view of their own nation and its principles has convinced him that a change is urgently needed: The recovery of national greatness requires that we passionately study our heroes. Lessons in Liberty is the first step to discovering the better angels of our nature by restoring the possibilities of individual freedom. 
  In this beautifully written, proudly patriotic, and deeply researched ode to American heroes from a rich variety of eras and backgrounds, Adams reclaims the power of the American story, discovering thirty different and surprising lessons that will inspire modern Americans to lead better and more substantive lives.

  Drawing Fire - Investigating the...

  Benjamin Pogrund, who spent 26 years as a journalist in South Africa investigating apartheid and who has been living in Israel for the past 15 years, investigates the accusation that Israel is practicing apartheid and the motives of those who make it. His study is founded on a belief in Israel, combined with frank criticism, to provide a balanced view of Israel’s strengths and problems.  To understand Israel today, one must first look at the past and so the book first outlines key foundational events to explain current attitudes. It then explores the contradictions found in the region, including discrimination against Israeli Arabs and among Jews, before concluding that it is wrong to affix the apartheid label to Israel inside the Green Line of 1948/1967. It also deconstructs the criticisms of Israel and the boycott movement before arguing for two states, Israeli and Palestinian, as the only way forward for Jews and Arabs.  This detailed and balanced study offers a unique comparison between South Africa a

  A State of Struggle

  John McInally

  In his new book, ‘A State of Struggle’, John McInally “provides an account and analysis of the development of the union from a Marxist perspective within the context of the wider class struggle.” Born in Glasgow in 1954, he joined the Militant Tendency in 1977 and became a trade union activist as the ‘Winter of discontent’ broke the post war industrial consensus. 
  Throughout a lifetime of activism, he sought a path for the union free from sectarianism and reformism. 
  McInally helped build a union at the forefront of class confrontations, engaging in sharp struggles against Thatcher and Blair’s New Labour. His analysis is now vital given the rise of Reform UK, which aims to complete the Thatcher counter-revolution. The book is “not just concerned with providing an industrial, political and historical analysis of past events but is intended as a guide to action in current and coming struggles.” 
  This book asks not just who to fight, but how to organise labour. It tells the story of public sector workers administering vital support to communities during forty years of austerity, whilst fighting for their own pay and conditions, and as at GCHQ where organising freedoms were denied. While focused on the PCS, its lessons are relevant to all unionists. McInally states “‘the emancipation of the downtrodden millions’ can no longer be understood as an aspiration for the future but as an imperative and urgent necessity for today.”

  Accountability after Economic...

  Accountability after Economic Crisis reconstructs the captivating story of how different nations responded to the 2008 economic crisis, one of the most challenging economic downturns in modern history. Why did some countries look for explanations of the economic failure and seek to hold those responsible to account, while others looked the other way? If so, were certain methods more effective than others? Is there, in fact, a best way? 
   
   
   
  Iosif Kovras introduces an innovative framework to explain the varied political responses to an economic crisis, pushing the boundaries of traditional analysis by drawing on political economy, comparative politics, public administration, economic history, criminal law, and criminology. He identifies three distinct accountability mechanisms used by leaders: retribution—prosecuting those at fault; truth recovery—establishing commissions of inquiry to reveal the facts; official acknowledgment—issuing formal apologies. Zeroing in on each country in turn, he shows how these mechanisms were employed and with what effect. 
   
   
   
  Featuring original observations from a survey in Iceland and experimental data from a conjoint experiment, Accountability after Economic Crisis provides a thorough and engaging examination of how countries manage accountability in the wake of an economic crisis.
