  Once pitted as adversarial counterparts as the opinion editors of Detroit's right- and left-leaning newspapers, veteran journalists Nolan Finley and Stephen Henderson join forces in this groundbreaking work to champion a novel approach to political discourse. Finley, a resolute conservative, and Henderson, a committed progressive, defy expectations by demonstrating that civil conversation is not only possible but also richly rewarding, even across colossal ideological divides. 
   
   
   
  In 2020, they launched the Civility Project with journalist and author Lynne Golodner, beginning their journey to teach Americans how to engage in respectful dialogue and maintain relationships despite political differences. The Civility Book is an extension of that mission, offering practical tools and strategies for fostering civility in everyday interactions. At the core of this work, the authors position their four pillars of civility to explain what civility is, why it matters, and how individuals can use it to overcome the antagonistic rhetoric that threatens our society today, one conversation at a time. This conversational, no-nonsense guide provides valuable lessons, a detailed curriculum, probing questions for consideration, and an extensive appendix of resources outlining ongoing efforts to curb unproductive contention and advance a more harmonious society.

  Stumbling Blocks is a powerful intergenerational memoir by Jennifer Krebs that explores her family’s journey from Nazi Germany to rural America. Blending personal history, Jewish identity, and emotional reflection, the book traces her father’s memories of growing up under the Third Reich and her own coming-of-age in small-town New York as the daughter of a survivor. The title refers to the Stolpersteine—brass plaques in Europe commemorating victims of National Socialism—that spark a meditation on trauma, memory, and belonging. With warmth, honesty, and a touch of wit, Krebs reflects on family legacy, the echoes of history, and the quiet resilience of survival.

  You’ve been told what love should feel like. Movies. Songs. Butterflies. Obsession. That can’t-eat-can’t-sleep intensity that takes over your mind and body. 
    
  But when you finally meet someone who’s actually healthy for you—emotionally available, consistent, genuinely kind—it doesn’t feel like that at all. It feels calm. Steady. Sometimes almost boring. And you start wondering: Where are the fireworks? Where’s the chemistry? 
    
  What Healthy Love Actually Feels Like is a grounded, emotionally honest audiobook about unlearning the chaos you were taught to call passion—and learning how to recognize healthy love when it shows up as something quieter. 
    
  Across seven clear lessons, you’ll learn what healthy love feels like in real life:Why safety can feel like “no spark” when you’re used to anxietyThe difference between intensity and intimacy (nervous-system activation vs. nervous-system rest)How being seen feels different from being impressedWhy consistency creates trust—and intensity often creates addictionHow freedom and space are signs of security (not rejection)Why respect matters more than chemistry once real life beginsHow healthy love feels like home: calm, steady, non-performative 
  This isn’t a book about dating games or “playing it cool.” It’s about learning to stop mistaking attachment wounds for chemistry, and choosing the kind of connection that doesn’t make you bracing for impact. 
  Because healthy love doesn’t feel like falling.  It feels like landing. 
  -- 
  Includes a practical Companion Guide with grounding prompts, body-based check-ins, and simple exercises to help you recognize healthy love in real time—and stay with calm instead of chasing chaos.

  Who Has Buried the Dead? - From...

  The Second World War was fought not only on the front lines but also in secrets, some of which have never been revealed. One such secret was buried in the deep, dark forest of Katyn, Poland. The other in the pages of a notebook hidden in an otherwise unremarkable café in an ancient Polish city.
  		 
  That notebook, known as the Scottish Book, was an obscure work of intellectual gamesmanship between a specialized group of mathematicians who met at a local pub near the town’s medieval university, where they shared and solved complex mathematical problems in the pages of the book. In 1939, as the Nazis overran the country, the book mysteriously vanished from its hiding place in the café. Some of its contributors avoided certain death by fleeing Poland  for America, where the government recruited them. Ultimately, some of these intellectuals became participants in a deadly undertaking: the Manhattan Project.
  		 
  Who Has Buried the Dead? may be fiction, but it draws on years of research to plausibly answer the real questions surrounding one of the last great secrets of the Second World War. What did the Scottish Book contain that led the NKVD, the Gestapo, and the Allies on a desperate search, using any means to find it? Why has its existence not factored into the telling of Second World War history? What is ultimately revealed within the Scottish Book that brought mortal enemies and their top spy operatives into a deadly contest for its discovery and seizure?

  Declaring Independence - Why...

  Edward J. Larson

  At the beginning of 1776, virtually no one in the colonies was advocating independence: Americans based their grievances against Parliament on their rights as British subjects. By the end of 1776, independence was on every patriot's lips. The many tyrannies of a king had made an independent republic necessary. In Declaring Independence, Edward J. Larson gives us a compact, insightful history of that pivotal year. He traces a narrative arc that runs from the inspiring appeals of Paine's Common Sense in January; through the soaring ideals of midsummer, when the Continental Congress grounded independence in the self-evident truths of human equality and individual rights, and the states wove revolutionary principles of republican government and the rule of law into their new constitutions; to Paine's urgent pleas of December, when "the times that try men's souls" required Americans not "to shrink from the service of their country." Dramatic military clashes also punctuate the year: the British evacuation of Boston forced by the brilliant maneuvers of Washington's Army; the Battle of Long Island, a costly defeat that opened New York to British occupation; and the desperate year-end victory of the American army at Trenton. 
   
  Combined, these ideals and the sacrifices remind us why, on this anniversary and at this political moment, 1776 matters to all of us.
