  "The Art of War" is a timeless and influential treatise on strategy and warfare attributed to Sun Tzu, a renowned Chinese military strategist, philosopher, and tactician of ancient China. Written over 2,500 years ago, this classic work has transcended its original purpose as a military manual to become a foundational text on strategic thinking applicable to various aspects of life, including business, leadership, and conflict resolution. 
  Divided into thirteen chapters, "The Art of War" delves into the intricate complexities of warfare and the principles that govern success on the battlefield. Sun Tzu emphasizes the importance of flexibility, adaptability, and understanding the terrain in order to gain an advantage over one's adversaries. The book discusses various strategies, including the direct and indirect approaches, the utilization of deception, the management of resources, and the significance of timing in achieving victory. 
  One of the central concepts in the book is the idea that the ultimate triumph lies in winning without engaging in actual combat. Sun Tzu stresses the value of outsmarting opponents through strategic maneuvering and psychological warfare, reducing the need for bloody confrontation. He underlines the importance of understanding both one's own strengths and weaknesses, as well as those of the opposition, in order to make informed decisions that lead to success. 
  "The Art of War" also touches upon leadership qualities and the need for effective communication and discipline within an organization. Sun Tzu's insights have been applied not only to military strategies but also to various fields, such as business management, negotiation, and personal development. His teachings highlight the significance of preparation, planning, and adaptability in achieving one's goals.

  Captive Gods - Religion and the...

  Philosopher Kwame Anthony Appiah explores how early social scientists developed our modern understandings of society through their theories of religion The foundations of modern social science were built on the study of religion, the acclaimed thinker Kwame Anthony Appiah argues. Delving into the intellectual currents of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, he investigates how formative thinkers—notably Edward Burnett Tylor, Émile Durkheim, Georg Simmel, and Max Weber—grappled with the concepts of society and religion as interdependent categories. Appiah shows how their efforts to define religion, or evade the task, mark the power and limitations of social thought in ways that persist among theorists today. Religion was not an object of study but a framework through which early social scientists established sociology as a discipline. Appiah also examines recent work in both interpretive sociology and evolutionary and cognitive psychology about the mechanisms through which communities form beliefs and values—while underscoring the enduring significance of these earlier debates for contemporary social thought. Throughout, he intertwines storytelling, historical analysis, and philosophical reflection to show how our ideas about society and culture have been, and continue to be, forged in dialogue with religious questions.

  The American Revolution is replete with seminal moments that every American learns in school, from the “shot heard ‘round the world” to the Declaration of Independence, but the events that led up to the fighting at Lexington & Concord were borne out of 10 years of division between the British and their American colonies over everything from colonial representation in governments to taxation, the nature of searches, and the quartering of British regulars in private houses. From 1764-1775, a chain of events that included lightning rods like the Townshend Acts led to bloodshed in the form of the Boston Massacre, while the Boston Tea Party became a symbol of nonviolent protest.  
  	The political and military nature of the Revolutionary War was just as full of intrigue. While disorganized militias fought the Battles of Lexington & Concord, George Washington would lead the Continental Army in the field while men like Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia and Benjamin Franklin negotiated overseas in France. Benedict Arnold would become one of his nation’s most vital war heroes and its most notorious traitor, French forces would play a crucial role at the end of the war, and the Treaty of Paris would conclude the Revolution with one last great surprise.  
  	Perhaps not surprisingly, the Revolution was far more complex than often depicted, both demographically and politically. Not all the British colonies in North America joined the rebel colonies - East and West Florida remained British (although Britain almost lost both to Spain), while the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the Caribbean colonies remained in the empire. The colonies in what is now Canada also remained loyal, namely Quebec, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and Rupert’s Land.

  Unsettling Choice - Race Rights...

  What do universal rights to public goods like education mean when codified as individual, private choices? Is the "problem" of school choice actually not about better choices for all but about the competition and exclusion that choice engenders? Unsettling Choice addresses such questions through a compelling ethnography that illuminates how one path of neoliberal restructuring in the United States emerged in tandem with, and in response to, the Civil Rights movement. 
   
   
   
  Unsettling Choice traces the contestations that surfaced when, in the wake of the 2007–2009 Great Recession, public schools navigated austerity by expanding choice-based programs. Ujju Aggarwal argues that this strategy mobilized mechanisms rooted in market logics to recruit families with economic capital on their side, solidifying a public sphere that increasingly resembled the private. 
   
   
   
  As Unsettling Choice shows, these struggles over public schools were entrapped within neoliberal regimes that exceeded privatization and ensured exclusion even as they were couched in language of equity, diversity, care, and rights. This book tracks an architecture of expansive rights, care, and belonging built among poor and working-class parents at a Head Start center, whose critique of choice helps us understand how we might struggle for justice, and a public that remains to be won.
