  In America we have so much, but there is something missing. There is a widespread fear of what we are becoming. Our new normal is indescribable, yet undeniable. Subtle, yet controlling. We can all feel it but we can’t put our finger on what it is. 
  There is a generalized sense of noise and confusion that has dominated our society for years. It’s as if we’ve become unglued from anything — truth or reality — that has formerly held us together. 
  Driven by the fear of the moment, Letters to Mikey (LTM) is the story of a parent and part time teacher who sits down to write a birthday card for his eighteen-year-old son and is at a loss for words for what is happening to society. So, he drops everything, moves to an island and visits a place that he hasn’t been to for years... the local library. What he finds there is truly astonishing! 
  Written for young adults and teenagers, LTM explains truth in a way that kids can rely on to have less frustration and worry about this crazy world we live in. It provides real reasons for optimism for a brighter future as well as coping mechanisms, tools and strategies to enable a future generation to bring an end to terrible disagreement and hate forever. These aren't false promises. It's possible.  
  Geared to start a movement, LTM seeks to tap into our greatest resource — young people.

  Fury and Ice - Greenland the...

  The wartime interest in Greenland was a direct result of its vital strategic position—if you wanted to predict the weather in Europe, you had to have men in place on the vast, frozen island. The most celebrated example of Greenland's crucial contribution to Allied meteorological services is the correct weather forecast in June 1944 leading to the decision to launch the invasion of Normandy. In addition, both before and after D-Day a stream of weather reports from Greenland was essential for the Allied ability to carry out the bombing offensive against Germany. 
   
   
   
  The Germans were aware of the value of Greenland from a meteorological point of view, and they repeatedly attempted to establish semi-permanent weather stations along the sparsely populated east coast of the island. This resulted in an epic cat-and-mouse game, in which US Coast Guard personnel assisted by a celebrated sledge patrol manned by Scandinavian adventurers struggled to locate and eliminate German bases before they could make any difference. It's a story seldom told, but the fact remains that Greenland was the only part of the North American continent in which German troops maintained a presence throughout almost the entirety of the war.

  The Laws and the Land - The...

  As the settler state of Canada expanded into Indigenous lands, settlers dispossessed Indigenous people and undermined their sovereignty as nations. One site of invasion was Kahnawà:ke, a Kanien’kehá:ka community and part of the Rotinonhsiónni confederacy. The Laws and the Land delineates the establishment of a settler colonial relationship from early contact ways of sharing land; land practices under Kahnawà:ke law; the establishment of modern Kahnawà:ke in the context of French imperial claims; intensifying colonial invasions under British rule; and ultimately the Canadian invasion in the guise of the Indian Act, private property, and coercive pressure to assimilate. What Daniel Rück describes is an invasion spearheaded by bureaucrats, Indian agents, politicians, surveyors, and entrepreneurs.This original, meticulously researched book is deeply connected to larger issues of human relations with environments, communal and individual ways of relating to land, legal pluralism, historical racism and inequality, and Indigenous resurgence.

  In his work On Interpretation, Aristotle seeks to uncover the underlying principles of language and meaning. He begins by examining the nature of signs and symbols, and how they are used to communicate information. He then goes on to explore the relationship between language and reality, and how our understanding of words is shaped by our experience of the world. Ultimately, Aristotle concludes that language is a tool for understanding reality, and that its meaning is determined by the way we use it. Read in English, unabridged.
