Summary

Nations Unite Peace explores the effectiveness of UN-brokered peace agreements from 1945 to 2020, examining whether these agreements forge lasting peace or offer only temporary solutions. The book analyzes the evolution of international peacekeeping, diplomatic negotiations, and the long-term socio-economic and political effects of peace agreements. Intriguingly, while these agreements have de-escalated conflicts and prevented large-scale wars, their success hinges on robust implementation and addressing underlying grievances.

 
Beginning with the post-World War II landscape and the UN's formation, the book progresses through case studies categorized by region and conflict type, including decolonization, civil wars, and international terrorism. It argues that peace is not simply the absence of war but requires justice, reconciliation, and sustainable development.

 
The book avoids simplistic views, offering a nuanced understanding of international conflict resolution and its challenges.
Available since: 02/16/2025.

    What makes the human mind so unique? And how did we get this way? 
     
     
     
    This fascinating tale explores the three leaps in our history that made us what we are—and will change how you think about our future. 
     
     
     
    Look around. Clearly, we humans are radically different from the other creatures on this planet. But why? Where are the Bronze Age beavers? The Iron Age iguanas? In Stories, Dice, and Rocks That Think, Byron Reese argues that we owe our special status to our ability to imagine the future and recall the past, escaping the perpetual present that all other living creatures are trapped in. 
     
      
      
    Envisioning human history as the development of a societal superorganism he names Agora, Reese shows us how this escape enabled us to share knowledge on an unprecedented scale, and predict—and eventually master—the future. 
     
     
      
    Thoughtful and witty, this must-listen book unravels our history as an intelligent species in three acts. A fresh new look at the history and destiny of humanity, listeners will come away from Stories, Dice, and Rocks That Think with a new understanding of what they are—not just another animal, but a creature with a mastery of time itself.

    This is Not America

    Across the West, racial injustice has become a matter of urgency. Terms like 'critical race theory' and 'intersectionality' are everywhere and, in the rush to get it right, Britain has followed the lead of the world's dominant political power: America. But what if we've been looking in the wrong place? 
    In This is Not America, Tomiwa Owolade argues that too much of the debate around racism in Britain is viewed through the prism of American ideas that don't reflect the history, challenges and achievements of black communities at home. 
    Humane, empirical and passionate, this book promises to start a new conversation around race and, vitally, shed light on black British life today.

    J-Rod moves like a small tank on the court, his face mean, staring down his opponents. "I play just like my father," he says. "Before my father died, he was a problem on the court. I'm a problem." Playing basketball for him fuses past and present, conjuring his father's memory into a force that opponents can feel in each bone-snapping drive to the basket.On the street, every ballplayer has a story. Onaje X. O. Woodbine, a former streetball player who became an all-star Ivy Leaguer, brings the sights and sounds, hopes and dreams of street basketball to life. He shows that big games have a trickster figure and a master of black talk whose commentary interprets the game for audiences. The beats of hip-hop and reggae make up the soundtrack, and the ballplayers are half-men, half-heroes, defying the ghetto's limitations with their flights to the basket.Basketball is popular among young black American men but not because, as many claim, they are "pushed by poverty" or "pulled" by white institutions to play it. Black men choose to participate in basketball because of the transcendent experience of the game. Through interviews with and observations of urban basketball players, Onaje X. O. Woodbine composes a rare portrait of a passionate, committed, and resilient group of athletes who use the court to mine what urban life cannot corrupt. If people turn to religion to reimagine their place in the world, then black streetball players are indeed the hierophants of the asphalt.
