  Essential Austrian Economics The...

  The origin of the Austrian School of economics is the publication of Carl Menger’s Principles of Economics in 1871. Menger, William Stanley Jevons, and Léon Walras are considered the co-founders of the “marginal revolution” in economics, a shift to the marginal utility theory of value from the labour theory of value. The revolutionists argued that value is not based on the amount of labour expended but reflects how useful people perceive the commodity to be in satisfying their ends. 
  This revolution had radical implications for the way economists understood the world: consumer valuations, and not the amount of effort, is what determines prices. But what determines consumer valuations? This question had long perplexed social scientists. Why do consumers value diamonds, a luxury item, more than water, an essential for life? By introducing the concept of marginal utility, Menger and his co-revolutionaries were able to resolve this paradox. 
  The labour theory of value, however, was not Menger’s only target in his Principles. He was also engaging the German Historical School, which held that economic science is incapable of producing universal principles. In contrast, Menger, using marginal utility analysis as a foundation, argued that universal economic laws do apply across time and geographic space. Those in the German Historical School took issue with the claims by Menger and his colleagues about the possibility of universal theory and labeled them the “Austrian School” because they taught at the University of Vienna. 
  Subsequent generations of scholars have developed the insights of the Austrian School. The purpose of this book is to present an overview of the key tenets of Austrian economics by synthesizing the insights from these thinkers in a set of eight topics that capture the core elements of Austrian economics.

  Fiat Food - Why Inflation...

  THE REAL COST OF INFLATION ON A COUNTRY can be best seen not through government-sanctioned data points circulated throughout the corporate sponsored media, but in the financial, physical, and mental health of its citizenry. Officials point to the increase of paper wealth as evidence that their stewardship in both the economy and nutrition has led to a rise in the quality of life. In reality, the past fifty years has seen the true standard of living for most Americans plummet. Debasement of the currency has left the American people poorer, and through the resulting degradation of the nutrients of their food supply, sicker than at any time in recent history. What follows is an examination of one of the most compelling “who done-its” in American history. In Fiat Food, Lysiak unravels a plot by the largest institutions of American power and the outsized ramifications it has had on modern civilization. 
  “IN TERMS OF THE LIVES CUT SHORT, it would be no exaggeration to say that 20th century nutrition science and government food policies are the biggest crime in history, putting genocides and man-made famines to shame. Matthew Lysiak provides a gripping forensic investigation into the barely believable sequence of events, spanning over a century, which led to the complete overhaul of the modern diet and the current obesity, diabetes, and autoimmune disease epidemic ravaging our species.”—SAIFEDEAN AMMOUS Internationally Best-selling Economist and Author 
  “WHAT IF THE FOOD YOU ATE MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE to think clearly about the food you were eating—or for that matter, anything else? Could the western diet function as a tool of mass social control? Hell yes, as this remarkable book explains with horrifying clarity.”—TUCKER CARLSON Author, Journalist, and Host of Tucker on X

  What’s coming next for today’s workforce, and the companies behind them? For those eager and willing to adapt, the possibilities are nearly endless, says author Gerard Szatvanyi. Recent advances in technology have led to new trends, and this global transformation holds tremendous potential. Nearly every industry will be impacted, and organizations that set the right vision could benefit from breaking into new markets and creating specialized niches. Organizations have the opportunity to utilize AI solutions to equip team members and uplevel their skills. Along the way, they’ll need to think through the purpose of the office. It will also become increasingly important to follow smart protocols when hiring virtually and to take care as they operate in new regions to ensure these places align with their values. 
   
  As AI moves into the lives of everyday workers, companies can be assured that the human touch will still be essential. Even as machine learning and automation reduce the need for intense labor, team members will be tasked with higher level responsibilities, including the job of supervising AI and making final decisions. Firms can expect to see benefits ranging from increased productivity, higher rates of worker satisfaction, improved efficiencies, and the potential to produce new revenue streams from specialized products and services. Having an open mind and a willingness to think differently could help organizations increase their chances to gain — and hold — a strong position in their respective industries. 
   
  With more than 20 years of experience in the tech industry, Szatvanyi has long been fascinated with digital solutions and their impact. As founder of OSF Digital, a global IT services company, he has worked with clients and brands around the world, consulting and directing digital initiatives to equip organizations with the tools they need to reach consumer expectations and demand.

  What if education could heal the planet, restore equity, and reimagine what it means to be human? 
  In Educating for a Sustainable Future, Brian Gibson invites readers to embark on a bold intellectual and moral journey—one that redefines learning in the age of climate crisis, social inequality, and economic uncertainty. With clarity, compassion, and vision, Gibson challenges the limitations of capitalist models that have shaped our schools, societies, and sense of purpose. 
  Drawing on critical pedagogy, ecological philosophy, and contemporary ethics, this book examines how education can become a transformative force, cultivating empathy, creativity, and sustainability in every learner. It proposes a radical rethinking of how we teach, what we value, and why we learn. 
  Through thought-provoking analysis and inspiring real-world examples, Gibson shows that true education is not about competing for success, but about co-creating a just, sustainable, and flourishing world. 
  Inside you’ll discover: 
  •	How current education systems perpetuate inequality and ecological harm 
  •	What a post-capitalist framework for learning might look like 
  •	Ways to cultivate ethical, democratic, and environmentally conscious classrooms 
  •	Strategies for aligning education with the values of justice, care, and sustainability 
  Educating for a Sustainable Future is a powerful call to educators, policymakers, and global citizens who believe that a better world begins in the classroom—and that learning itself must evolve if humanity is to thrive.
