Summary

Family as Social Pillar explores the widely debated role of the nuclear family as a cornerstone of Western societies, questioning whether its influence on law, education, and the economy is overstated. The book analyzes the nuclear family's historical significance, particularly its rise during the Industrial Revolution, while scrutinizing its contemporary relevance. It reveals that while the nuclear family has historically played a key role, its influence is increasingly complex, and a rigid adherence to this model in policy can disadvantage those in diverse family structures. The book uniquely connects sociology, economics, and law to provide a comprehensive understanding, supported by sociological studies, legal analyses, and economic data. For example, longitudinal studies tracking children from different family structures provide empirical support. Family as Social Pillar progresses from defining family structures to examining the relationships between the nuclear family and law, education, and the economy. Ultimately, the book synthesizes its findings to offer recommendations for policymakers and educators, aiming to foster more inclusive and equitable systems. It argues for moving beyond simple correlations to understand how family structures influence social outcomes, contributing to informed discussions on issues like single-parent households and same-sex parenting.

    Revolution for Dummies

    ""The Jon Stewart of the Arabic World""—the creator of The Program, the most popular television show in Egypt’s history—chronicles his transformation from heart surgeon to political satirist, and offers crucial insight into the Arab Spring, the Egyptian Revolution, and the turmoil roiling the modern Middle East. 
Bassem Youssef’s incendiary satirical news program, Al-Bernameg (The Program), chronicled the events of the 2011 Egyptian Revolution, the fall of President Hosni Mubarak, and the rise of Mubarak’s successor, Mohamed Morsi. Youssef not only captured his nation’s dissent but stamped it with his own brand of humorous political criticism, in which the Egyptian government became the prime laughing stock. 
So potent were Youssef’s skits, jokes, and commentary, the authoritarian government accused him of insulting the Egyptian presidency and Islam. After a six-hour long police interrogation, Youssef was released. While his case was eventually dismissed, his television show was terminated, and Youssef, fearful for his safety, fled his homeland.  
In Revolution for Dummies, Youssef recounts his life and offers hysterical riffs on the hypocrisy, instability, and corruption that has long animated Egyptian politics. From the attempted cover-up of the violent clashes in Tahrir Square to the government’s announcement that it had created the world’s first ""AIDS cure"" machine, to the conviction of officials that Youssef was a CIA operative—recruited by Jon Stewart—to bring down the country through sarcasm. There’s much more—and it’s all insanely true. 
Interweaving the dramatic and inspiring stories of the development of his popular television show and his rise as the most contentious funny-man in Egypt, Youssef’s humorous, fast-paced takes on dictatorship, revolution, and the unforeseeable destiny of democracy in the Modern Middle East offers much needed hope and more than a few healing laughs.

    Does truth exist? What is truth? How can truth be known?  
Through observation and reason, many aspects of truth can be known. These kinds of truths form the bedrock on which true faith and knowledge can be built. Consider for yourself whether or not you agree that the “truths” discussed in this book are “self-evident”! 
This book is divided into three parts: 
Part 1: Some Self-Evident Truths. 
Part 2: Faith and Science. 
Part 3: God Revealed. 
Part 1 focuses on self-evident truths which are important in understanding matters of faith as well as life in general. 
Part 2 deals with the tension between faith and science, and how the two can be understood so that they don’t conflict with each other. 
Part 3 presents how some aspects of God’s character are self-evident from what God has made, and how we can learn from other people about God. 
Come and explore truth!
