Synopsis

Swedish School Choice offers a comprehensive analysis of Sweden's free school system, addressing critical questions about educational equity and the impact of market-based reforms. The book challenges simplistic views by examining academic performance, socioeconomic sorting, and long-term consequences. It uniquely tracks students over time using longitudinal data to reveal complex, evolving effects often missed in cross-sectional studies. The study explores how school choice affects student achievement by comparing outcomes in free versus municipal schools, while controlling for socioeconomic factors. It also investigates how these policies contribute to segregation along socioeconomic and ethnic lines. By outlining the historical context of education reform in Sweden, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the Swedish model. The book progresses systematically, with sections dedicated to student achievement, sorting effects, and long-term consequences, ultimately contributing to a more informed discussion on education policy.

    The Hidden History of...

    America's most popular progressive radio host and New York Times bestselling author Thom Hartmann reveals how and why neoliberalism became so prevalent in the United States and why it's time for us to turn our backs to it. 
     
    While America is at a crossroads regarding its economic future, many of us don't fully understand how we got here. In this powerful and accessible book, Thom Hartmann demystifies neoliberalism and explains how we can use this pivotal point in time to create a more positive future. 
     
    This book traces the history of neoliberalism-which applies to a set of capitalistic philosophies favoring free trade, financial austerity, and deregulation-up to the present. Hartmann explains how neoliberalism was sold as a cure for wars and the Great Depression. He outlines the impact that it has had on America, looking at different sectors, including healthcare, unemployment, and education. 
     
    Hartmann highlights how America can go one of two ways: continue going down the road to neoliberal oligarchy, as supported by the GOP, or choose to return to FDR's Keynesian economics, raise taxes on the rich, reverse free trade, and create a more pluralistic society.

  • Stop Self-Sabotage: Why You Keep Getting in Your Own Way - Understanding the Pattern and Reclaiming Your Power - cover

    Stop Self-Sabotage: Why You Keep...

    Why do you destroy things you actually want?
     
    The relationship that was going well.
    The opportunity that was finally opening up.
    The progress you worked hard to build.
     
    And then suddenly… you pulled back.
    You procrastinated.
    You created conflict.
    You lost momentum.
     
    Afterward, you're left asking the same question:
     
    “Why do I keep doing this to myself?”
     
    This audiobook explores the hidden psychology behind self-sabotage — the unconscious pattern that makes you work against your own goals, even when you know exactly what you're doing.
     
    Self-sabotage is not laziness.
    It’s not lack of discipline.
    And it’s not proof that you don’t actually want success.
     
    It’s a protective emotional pattern that formed earlier in life and still activates automatically when success, visibility, change, or pressure appear.
     
    Across five focused sessions, you'll gain a deep understanding of why you keep getting in your own way — and why the pattern persists even when you desperately want things to change.
     
    This is Book 1 in the Stop Self-Sabotage series.
     
    Book 1 builds the psychological foundation: understanding the pattern, where it came from, and what it’s protecting you from.
     
    Book 2 — The Practice of Self-Trust — introduces the practical skills for interrupting the pattern and building self-trust in real time.
     
    If you've ever felt like you're standing in your own way…
    this audiobook will help you understand why.
     
    And understanding is the first step toward breaking the pattern.

    China's military has entered a new era. It has acquired modern weapons to rival the world's finest, undergone a massive restructuring under Xi Jinping, and been on the frontlines of territorial disputes with Japan, India, Vietnam, and the Philippines. It is readying forces to be able to seize Taiwan sometime in the next decade. It aims to be a "world-class" military on par with the United States. 
     
     
     
    China's Quest for Military Supremacy provides a broad and accessible exploration of Chinese military power, including relations between the Chinese Communist Party and its army, the strategic worldview of Chinese leaders, military strategy and resourcing, conventional and nuclear modernization, military diplomacy and coercion, preparations for war, and the People's Liberation Army's emerging global role. It also identifies the challenges facing China's military and shows how its focus on supremacy in the region means that it is not yet prepared to fight with the same lethality beyond Asia. Different futures are possible, and the book concludes with a preview of what it might take for a truly "world-class" Chinese military to take the global stage.

    What Makes You Happy Bible...

    Everybody wants to be happy. Everybody is on a happiness quest. For many, happiness is measured in moments. Experiences. It's elusive. Unsustainable. What about you? What makes you happy? Something comes to mind for each of us. 
    In this six-session audio Bible study, pastor Andy Stanley examines the ways in which we tend to define happiness and explains how that definition influences the way we pursue it. He reveals that happiness is about who, not what, and that happy people are at peace with God, with others, and with themselves. He also shows how sin undermines peace because it separates us from God, others, and ourselves by substituting pleasure for fulfillment, things for people, images for intimacy, and self-expression for self-control. 
    We are often tempted to believe that happiness comes from acquiring things, but happiness is actually an outcome of what we sow in our lives. We can’t acquire, consume, or exercise our way to happiness, but we may be able to serve and volunteer our way there. In the end, we find that if we live as if it’s all about us, we will never be happy. 
    Sessions include:Nothing (17:00)Plan for It (18:00)Peace with God (16:00)Happy Money (16:30)Shoes (13:00)You’re Not Enough (18:00)
