Sinopsis

"What Makes a Good Ruler?" explores the essential qualities of effective leadership, emphasizing traits such as transparency, dedication, vision, and loyalty to both the people and the state. The book argues that true leaders are open to change and innovation, fulfill their promises, and prioritize the needs of their citizens over personal power. However, it also critically examines rulers—kings, queens, and politicians—who governed according to their personal whims and ideologies without considering long-term consequences. Through historical accounts ranging from ancient times to the present, the book highlights how autocratic rule, often disguised as leadership, has repeatedly led to failure and unrest. These stories serve as cautionary tales about the dangers of power unchecked by reason, empathy, or accountability. By contrasting good leadership with the pitfalls of authoritarianism, this book invites readers to reflect on the values that shape just governance and the impact rulers have on society across time.

    In the summer of 2016, Barrie Miskin faced a pivotal moment when her pregnancy prompted the discontinuation of a decade-long antidepressant regimen, setting off an unforeseen chain of events. By January 2017, she had become a stranger to her family and herself, navigating the complex and often unforgiving landscape of mental healthcare in the United States. Through encounters marked by compassion and cruelty, Barrie's family embarked on a desperate quest for a diagnosis, ultimately uncovering the rare condition of pregnancy-induced depersonalization and derealization disorder. 
     
     
     
    Hell Gate Bridge not only brings to light these seldom-discussed mental illnesses but also unveils the flaws in our maternal and mental healthcare system. Barrie's journey became a climb out of the abyss, all while balancing the challenges of motherhood, her teaching career, and her marriage. The narrative serves as a testament to the power of determination in overcoming the darkest of challenges and fighting fiercely to save those we hold dear.

    In Voice, Adam Pottle explores the crucial role deafness has played in the growth of his imagination, and in doing so presents a unique perspective on a writer's development. Born deaf in both ears, Pottle recounts what it was like growing up in a world of muted sound, and how his deafness has influenced virtually everything about his writing, from his use of language to character and plot choices. Salty, bold, and relentlessly honest, Voice makes us think about writing in entirely new ways and expands our understanding of deafness and the gifts that it can offer.
