  And You May Find Yourself -...

  Gen-X author and Oldster Magazine/Memoir Land editor Sari Botton reads her celebrated memoir, "And You May Find Yourself...", about finding yourself later in life—after first getting lost in all the wrong places. As Botton discovers, the wrong places famously include her own self-suppression and misguided efforts to please others (mostly men). In a series of candid, reflective, sometimes humorous essays, Botton describes coming to feminism and self-actualization as an older person; second (and third and fourth) chances; and how maybe it's never too late to find your way...assuming you're lucky enough to live long.  
  "In her edgy, tender, witty way, Sari Botton has written a book for any woman who ever contorted herself to fit culturally imposed ideals, in other words, all of us. In witnessing the ways Sari has fought and failed and flourished, in the poignancy and laughter, there is deep wisdom and an abundance of spirit." 
  —Beverly Donofrio, author of "Riding in Cars with Boys" 
  "A fresh and humorous meditation on the trials and tribulations of a smart Gen-X young woman who tries to extricate herself from a straitlaced suburban upbringing to become a cool, East Village girl, only to keep falling for the wrong man, the wrong therapist, and the wrong job... until she doesn't. Botton's hilarious and self-aware pages on dating all the wrong men recall some of Candace Bushnell's original Sex and the City essays and Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones' Diary."  
  —Catherine Texier, author of "Breakup" 
  "A humanizing, humble, and hard look at a life. Investigative journalism of the soul. Sari Botton's And You May Find Yourself is like the older sister of My Misspent Youth by Meghan Daum. You will absolutely find yourself in this intelligent, clever, and clear-hearted book." 
  —Chloe Caldwell, author of "The Red Zone: A Love Story"

  Outsourcing Duty - The Moral...

  Are contemporary soldiers exploited by the state and society that they defend? More specifically, have America's professional service members disproportionately carried the moral weight of America's war-fighting decisions since the inception of an all-volunteer force? In this volume, Michael J. Robillard and Bradley J. Strawser examine the question of whether and how American soldiers have been exploited in this way. 
   
   
   
  Robillard and Strawser offer an original theory of "moral exploitation"—the notion that persons or groups can be wrongfully exploited by being made to shoulder an excessive amount of moral weight. They make the case that this exploitation accurately describes the relationship between the United States and the members of its military, and offer an in-depth analysis of some of the exploitative and misleading elements of present-day military recruitment, the moral burdens soldiers often bear, and the stifling effect that a "Thank You for Your Service" and "I support the troops" culture has had on serious public engagement about America's ongoing wars. Robillard and Strawser offer a critique of the pernicious divide between military members and the civilians who direct them. They conclude by arguing for several normative and prudential prescriptions to help close this ever-widening fissure between the US and its military, and within the US itself.

  Subterranean Secrets - Unveiling...

  Paris, often known as the "City of Light," is renowned for its iconic landmarks, romantic ambiance, and vibrant culture. Yet, beneath its grand boulevards and charming streets, lies an entirely different world—an underground labyrinth that has shaped the city in ways few know or understand. From ancient Roman origins to the modern-day metro system, Paris’s subterranean spaces are a testament to the ingenuity, mystery, and resilience of the city. 
  The underground world of Paris is not merely a collection of tunnels and chambers; it is a complex network that has served multiple purposes throughout the ages. Some of these spaces were created for practical reasons—such as the quarries that provided building materials for the city's growing skyline—while others evolved into places of mystique and darkness, such as the famous Catacombs, now home to the remains of millions. What began as a means of resource extraction gradually became a vault of history, culture, and secrets. 
  This book delves into the hidden depths beneath Paris’s streets, exploring the lesser-known aspects of the city's subterranean heritage. It examines the origins of these tunnels, from the Romans who first began to carve through the limestone to the workers who later expanded them into extensive catacombs. It also explores the multifaceted role these spaces have played throughout history: as a refuge during times of war, as a setting for revolutionary movements, and as a sanctuary for those who choose to live outside the city's mainstream society.
