Synopsis

In the collection 'ON LIBERTY - The Philosophy of Individual Freedom,' readers are invited to explore the profound and multifaceted discourse surrounding the theme of liberty. Drawing from a range of literary styles, from abstract philosophical essays to more direct social commentaries, this anthology presents a rich tapestry of thoughts that dissect and expand upon the concept of individual freedom. The selected works not only highlight the philosophical underpinnings of liberty but also grapple with its implications in diverse real-world contexts, offering readers varied insights into the enduring significance of freedom. The authors, John Stuart Mill and W. L. Courtney, underpin this collection with their profound intellectual legacies. Mill's seminal contributions to the philosophy of liberalism are complemented by Courtney's perceptive analyses, which offer a broader, historically anchored understanding of freedom. These authors, positioned at the intersections of 19th-century liberal thought and social reform, bring to life a dialogue enriched by historical and cultural dimensions, weaving together voices that reflect both the transformative potential and the complexities of liberty. This anthology serves as an essential read for those eager to immerse themselves in the dynamic interplay of philosophical thought and societal application. Offering a unique opportunity to engage with multiple perspectives on a central theme, this collection not only educates but also provokes critical reflection and dialogue. Readers are encouraged to delve deep into these pages, where the philosophical meets the personal, and liberty finds its myriad expressions, making it a compelling addition to any intellectual pursuit.

    Uncover new sides of family members you've known your entire life with this indispensable guide. 
     
     
     
    Just as the oral histories of people around the world are disappearing amid rapid change, there is a risk that your family's personal stories, too, will be lost forever. In The Essential Questions, anthropologist Elizabeth Keating helps you to uncover the unique memories of your parents and grandparents and to create lasting connection with them in the process. 
     
     
     
    As you seek to learn more about your family history, how do you get beyond familiar anecdotes and avoid the frustration of oppositional generational attitudes? By asking questions that make the familiar strange, anthropologists are able to see entirely different perspectives and understand new cultures. Drawing on her lifelong work in this field, Keating has developed a set of questions that treat your parents and grandparents not just as the people who raised you, but as individuals of a certain society and time, and as the children, teenagers, and young adults they once were. The Essential Questions helps you to learn about the history of your elders, to see the world through their eyes, and to honor the language they choose to describe their experiences.

    The First Anzacs

    This is the unknown story of the combat engineers who kept World War I running. Although it has been repeatedly denied by the army, they were the first Australians to land at Anzac Cove: in any combat, even today, sappers are always the first in and last out. 
     
     
    They were airbrushed out of history. Official historian Charles Bean claimed the first Australian ashore at the Gallipoli landing on 25 April 1915 was an infantry officer. But Bean wasn't there, and a bunch of Australian and New Zealand army engineers were. Even today, the army is reluctant to accept that sappers were among the very first Australian soldiers ashore. 
     
    This is the untold story of the Australian and New Zealand sappers - combat engineers - who fought in World War I. They were always in the vanguard, clearing defences, and building bridges, roads and walkways for the troops who followed, usually under fire. At Gallipoli, strafed by machine guns and targeted by snipers, they dug trenches and tunnels to advance on the Turkish defences. On the Western Front, they burrowed under the German lines to plant massive explosives, whose eruption could be heard in England. In Egypt they demolished a Turkish railway in a day. 
     
    From Gallipoli to the sands of the Middle East, to the blood-soaked battlefields of France and Belgium, engineers put down their tools to also fight as combat soldiers at every major battle and campaign, often with heroic feats of astonishing courage. Three sappers stole a giant field gun from under German noses at Amiens. Sappers were classic Aussie larrikins, indefatigably practical men who don't take kindly to bureaucracy. Typically under-appreciated, two were cheated of their well-earned VCs by a British general after they, working alone, tricked a German platoon into surrendering.

    The Racial Wealth Gap - A Brief...

    Why has the racial wealth gap between the median white households and median Black households remained stagnant over the past century, never narrowing below six to one? Leading expert on race and financial equality Mehrsa Baradaran attempts to answer this question in this sweeping yet accessible history. She shows how decades of the laws rooted in white supremacy have restricted Black access to capital, credit, homeownership, and other mechanisms of wealth creation while subsidizing the rising economic fortunes of white families. 
     
    In The Racial Wealth Gap, Baradaran outlines two tectonic forces that have driven apart the economic fortunes of white and Black families: wealth creation for white Americans, who have been systematically receiving financial subsidies in the century and a half since emancipation, and wealth destruction for Black Americans—either by vigilante violence or by official means, such as allowing Black banks to collapse or building highways through segregated Black communities. These forces, combined with the racist notion that Black communities fail to rise because of their own moral, intellectual, or economic shortcomings, have kept Black families behind their white counterparts, despite decades of civil rights activism and national economic growth—a deep injustice that can only be achieved through reparations.
