  The Courtier and the Heretic -...

  Matthew Stewart

  Once upon a time, philosophy was a dangerous business—and for no one more so than for Baruch Spinoza, the seventeenth-century philosopher vilified by theologians and political authorities everywhere as "the atheist Jew." As his inflammatory manuscripts circulated underground, Spinoza lived a humble existence in The Hague, grinding optical lenses to make ends meet. Meanwhile, in the glittering salons of Paris, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was climbing the ladder of courtly success. In between trips to the opera and groundbreaking work in mathematics, philosophy, and jurisprudence, he took every opportunity to denounce Spinoza, relishing his self-appointed role as "God's attorney." 
   
   
   
  In this exquisitely written philosophical romance of attraction and repulsion, greed and virtue, religion and heresy, Matthew Stewart gives narrative form to an epic contest of ideas that shook the seventeenth century—and continues today.

  Give Me a Break - How I Exposed...

  Ballooning government? Millionaire welfare queens? Tort lawyers run amok? A $330,000 outhouse, paid for with your tax dollars? John Stossel says, ""Give me a break."" 
  When he hit the airwaves thirty years ago, Stossel chased snake-oil peddlers, rip-off artists, and corporate thieves, winning the applause of his peers.  
  But along the way, he noticed that there was something far more troublesome going on: While the networks screamed about the dangers of coffee pots, worse risks were ignored.   
  In Give Me a Break, Stossel explains how ambitious bureaucrats, intellectually lazy reporters, and greedy lawyers make your life worse even as they claim to protect your interests. Taking on such sacred cows as the FDA, the War on Drugs, and scare-mongering environmental activists -- and backing up his trademark irreverence with careful reasoning and research -- he shows how the problems that government tries and fails to fix can be solved better by the extraordinary power of the free market. 
  He traces his journey from cub reporter to 20/20 co-anchor, revealing his battles to get his ideas to the public, his struggle to overcome stuttering, and his eventual realization that, for years, much of his reporting missed the point. 
  Stossel concludes the book with a modest proposal for change. It's a simple plan in the spirit of the Founding Fathers to ensure that America remains a place ""where free minds -- and free markets -- make good things happen.""

  COVID WARS - America's Struggle...

  Ronald Gruner

  • 0
  • 0
  • 0

  A sweeping, deeply researched chronicle of the COVID-19 pandemic, weaving together science, politics, and personal freedoms. 
  Ronald Gruner, with the precision of a historian and the curiosity of a citizen, takes the listener from the roots of virology in the 19th century to the chaotic pandemic years of 2020–2022. The book doesn’t just tell the story of a virus—it lays bare the cultural and political divide that shaped America’s uneven and often painful response. 
  Gruner’s writing is crisp, and he breaks down complex topics without dumbing them down. The opening chapters—“Contagium” and “The Warning”—build a compelling backstory on pandemics past, from the 1918 Spanish Flu to the eerie predictions of the Bush and Obama administrations. 
  COVID WARS isn’t shy about calling out failures. Politicians, conspiracy theorists, media figures, and even some public health leaders get held accountable. The chapter “The Divide” lays it all out—how the pandemic morphed from a health emergency into a political food fight. Gruner points fingers but backs it all up with evidence, charts, and historical comparisons. 
  What listeners will appreciate most, though, is Gruner’s balance. He’s clearly frustrated with misinformation and poor leadership, but he doesn’t come across as bitter or one-sided. The chapter “Lockdowns” captures this tone perfectly. He acknowledges the economic devastation and emotional toll, especially on children and small business owners, while also recognizing that something had to be done to slow the rising death counts. If you’re curious about what really happened, how we got here, and how it could have been different—COVID WARS will be worth your time. 
  COVID WARS is not just a book about the pandemic. It’s a mirror, and what it reflects is both sobering and necessary.
