  This is a thriller which traces the history of the Stevens family from 1916 to 2020, covering four generations. What is so unusual about this family is that they are all special intelligence operatives and serve in an ultra-secret unit answering to senior military officers appointed directly by the King. In each generation, the eldest son is selected to carry on the tradition when he reaches the age of 21 years.The operatives are highly-trained as intelligence agents, and their role is to act as judge, jury and executioner of the targets selected. The targets are men and women who have been engaged in treasonous activities or conducting espionage for a foreign power, but the agent has been given the discretion to satisfy himself that the charges are justified before he executes the offender.

  A contemporary look at Albert Einstein's classic call for socialism 
   
   
   
  First published more than seventy-five years ago in the inaugural issue of Monthly Review: An Independent Socialist Magazine, Albert Einstein's "Why Socialism?" is an unheralded classic. Written during the McCarthyite witch-hunt in the United States, it constituted an act of defiance, making a case for socialism unrivaled in its time or ours. Yet, its very existence has been an embarrassment to an establishment which has continually sought to downplay the significance of his iconoclastic essay, together with Einstein's socialism itself. 
   
   
   
  This volume includes Einstein's essay along with a detailed commentary on his essay by Monthly Review editor, John Bellamy Foster. Foster's introduction tells the story of Einstein's life-long commitment to socialism and the events leading to the publication of "Why Socialism?" and contextualizes the importance of his essay as we enter a time of planetary crisis and new threats of world war. Over the three-quarters of century since its publication, "Why Socialism?" is one of those rare statements whose power has only grown, reaching untold numbers of readers over the years. It is of crucial importance that―for the sake of the future of humanity―Einstein's message continues to proliferate.

  Racism - The Enduring Battle for...

  Racism has been a persistent and destructive force throughout human history, shaping societies, cultures, and institutions in ways that continue to reverberate today. It manifests in myriad forms—through prejudice, discrimination, systemic inequities, and violence—targeting individuals and groups based on their race or ethnicity. While strides have been made in confronting this global scourge, the fight for equality and human dignity remains far from over. This enduring struggle is deeply rooted in historical injustices and perpetuated by contemporary systems of power and privilege.  
    
  Understanding racism requires a close examination of its origins, evolution, and the ways it impacts communities worldwide. Its foundations can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where societal hierarchies and prejudices began to form, later crystallizing during the eras of slavery and colonialism. These periods institutionalized racial inequality, embedding it into economic, social, and political structures. Even as humanity has progressed, racism has evolved, adapting to modern contexts while retaining its insidious influence.  
    
  The importance of addressing racism lies in the profound consequences it has on individuals and societies alike. At an individual level, it strips people of their dignity, identity, and opportunities, often leaving scars that last generations. On a societal level, racism undermines social cohesion, fosters economic inequality, and perpetuates cycles of marginalization and violence. In the face of these challenges, activists, leaders, and everyday citizens have worked tirelessly to dismantle racist systems, foster inclusion, and champion equality.

  Fine Line A: How Most American...

  WHICH SIDE OF THE LINE DO YOU LIVE ON? 
   
  In 1954 the Supreme Court ruled that little Linda Brown couldn't be excluded from a public school because of her race. In that landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education, the court famously declared that public education must be available to all on equal terms. But sixty-six years later, many of the best public schools remain closed to all but the most privileged families. Empowered by little-known state laws, school districts draw attendance zones around their best schools, indicating who is, and who isn't, allowed to enroll. In many American cities, this means that living on one side of the street or the other will determine whether you leave eighth grade on a track for future success or barely able to read. 
   
  In A Fine Line, bestselling author Tim DeRoche takes a close look at the laws and policies that dictate which kids are allowed to go to which schools. And he finds surprising parallels between current education policies and the redlining practices of the New Deal era in which minority families were often denied mortgages and government housing assistance because they didn't live within certain desirable zones of the city. 
   
  It is an extraordinary story of American democracy gone wrong, and it will make you question everything you think you know about our public education system.
