Sinopse

"Unfulfilled Promises" by Louis Raprager III is a stirring exploration of the injustices faced by non-citizen soldiers in the US military. Through compelling research and narratives, Raprager highlights the ironies of an immigration system that leaves those who've served alienated. The book, with a fusion of academic rigor and emotional depth, calls for reforms to honor and integrate these overlooked veterans into the very society they protected.

    Alex slips off her headphones and savors the sensation of stillness in silence while the crowd dances on at Oslo’s hot new silent disco. She is conducting her dream field research on sound and attention when a handsome stranger beckons to her from across the dance floor. Hoping for a little warmth in Norway’s cold climate, she follows him -- going from anthropology PhD student to murder suspect. With the Norwegian police and a killer closing in, Alex is stranded in a country where every puzzle piece is slightly out of place. While dyslexia makes reading Norwegian difficult, it also gifts her an uncanny ability to read people. Soon she is channeling Ms. Marple as much as Margaret Meade, as she re-places puzzle pieces and navigates the sharp edges of the frosty Fjord in an attempt to free herself and return home.

    The relationship between trauma and mental health is becoming better recognized, but survivors and professionals alike remain confused about how best to understand and treat it. In Reclaim, through a series of case studies and expert analysis, Dr. Ahona Guha explores complex traumas, how survivors can recover and heal, and the nature of those who abuse. She shines a light on the "difficult" trauma victims that society often ignores, and tackles vital questions such as, "Why are psychological abuse and coercive control so difficult to spot?" and "Why do some people harm others, and how do we protect ourselves from them?" 
     
     
     
    As a clinical and forensic psychologist, Dr. Guha has had extensive experience in working with those who perpetrate harm—including stalkers, sex offenders, violent offenders, and those who threaten, bully, and harass—and she has a deep understanding of the psychological and social factors that cause people to abuse others. In turn, her clinical work in the trauma treatment field has led her to recognize the enormous impacts of complex trauma, and the failures of systems when working with those who have been victimized. 
     
     
     
    By emphasizing compassion above all, Dr. Guha calls for us to become better informed about perpetrators and the needs of victims, so we might reclaim a safer, healthier society for everyone.

    A behind-the-scenes look at how digital surveillance is affecting the trucking way of life. 
     
     
     
    Long-haul truckers are the backbone of the American economy, transporting goods under grueling conditions and immense economic pressure. Truckers have long valued the independence of their work, sharing a strong occupational identity rooted in a tradition of autonomy. Yet these workers increasingly find themselves under many watchful eyes. Data Driven examines how digital surveillance is upending life and work on the open road, and raises crucial questions about the role of data collection in broader systems of social control. 
     
     
     
    Karen Levy takes listeners inside a world few ever see, painting a bracing portrait of one of the last great American frontiers. Federal regulations now require truckers to buy and install digital monitors that capture data about their locations and behaviors. Intended to address the pervasive problem of trucker fatigue by regulating the number of hours driven each day, these devices support additional surveillance by trucking firms and other companies. Traveling from industry trade shows to law offices and truck-stop bars, Levy reveals how these invasive technologies are reconfiguring industry relationships and providing new tools for managerial and legal control—and how truckers are challenging and resisting them.
