The Age of Abundance - AI and...

Leandro Maya

What happens to society when machines can do almost everything, and most people no longer need to work? 
The Age of Abundance is not a book about robots taking jobs. It is a book about what comes after. Drawing on economics, history, and decades of experience at the intersection of finance and technology, Leandro Maya argues that humanity is approaching a transformation unlike anything in recorded history, one that promises extraordinary wealth and devastating disruption in equal measure. 
At the center of this transformation are two problems that no one is talking about. The ladder problem: automation is eliminating the entry-level positions that have always served as the first rung of career development, cutting off the path before millions of people ever get to climb it. And the purpose problem: when work becomes optional, what gives life meaning? 
Neither blindly optimistic nor needlessly alarming, The Age of Abundance charts a more honest and more human path through the economic revolution already underway, one that finance professionals, business leaders, and curious minds cannot afford to ignore.

The Funny Stuff - The Official P...

P.J. O'Rourke

A compendium of quotes and riffs by P.J. O'Rourke on subjects ranging from government to fishing to apps, to be published on what would have been his seventy-fifth birthday. 
 
 
 
When The Penguin Dictionary of Modern Humorous Quotations was published in 1994, P. J. O'Rourke had more entries than any living writer. And he kept writing funny stuff for another twenty-eight years. Now, for the first time, the best material is collected in  one volume. Edited by Terry McDonell, The Funny Stuff is arranged in six sections, organized by subject in alphabetical order from Agriculture to Xenophobia. From his earliest days at the National Lampoon in the 1970s, through his classic reporting for Rolling Stone in the '80s and '90s to his post-Trump, pandemic, new media observations of recent years, P. J. produced incisive, amusing copy. Not only did P. J. write memorable one-liners, he also meticulously constructed riffs that are still being quoted years later. His prose has the electric verbal energy of Tom Wolfe or Hunter Thompson, but P. J. is more flat out funny. And through it all comes his clear-eyed take on politics, economics, human nature—and fun. The Funny Stuff is a book for P. J. fans to devour but also a book that will bring new audiences and stand as testament to one of the truly original American writers of the last fifty years.

Lalgarh and the Legend of...

Shigdhendu Bhattacharya

'India is an unbroken chain of broken promises.' In 2009, Lalgarh in West Bengal exploded on to the national consciousness. A tribal upsurge against police atrocities escalated into fierce, full-fledged guerrilla warfare against the Indian state. Kishanji, the Maoist leader, who had successfully led the movement in Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Bihar, was in charge. He masterminded military offensives that shook the state, supervised 'alternative development activities' and repeatedly escaped security dragnets. But what truly confounded the state were his telephonic interviews with the media, often on live television, and the frequent press conferences. Kishanji was indeed the face of the Maoist movement in India – until the tables turned. Snigdhendu Bhattacharya was on the ground in Lalgarh, meeting Kishanji, speaking to Maoists and reporting on one of the bloodiest Naxal uprisings as it unfolded, right up to its sudden, chilling end. This is an epic tale of war not only between the state and the Maoists but also between a callous state and its desperate citizens. ©Harper Collins India 2018

On Treason - A Citizen's Guide...

Carlton F. W. Larson

A concise, accessible, and engaging guide to the law of treason, written by the nation’s foremost expert on the subject 
 
The only crime defined in the United States Constitution, treason is routinely described by judges as more heinous than murder. Today the term is regularly thrown around by lawmakers and pundits on both sides of the aisle. But as these heated accusations flood the news cycle, it’s not always clear what the crime of treason truly is, or when it should be prosecuted.  
 
Drawing on over two decades of research, constitutional law and legal history scholar Carlton Larson takes us on a grand tour of the Treason Clause of the United States Constitution. Despite the Clause’s apparent simplicity, Larson demonstrates that it is a form of constitutional quicksand in which seemingly obvious intuitions are often far off the mark. From the floors of the medieval British Parliament that codified the Statute of Treasons upon which the American law was based to the treason of Benedict Arnold, our nation’s founding traitor, to more recent events, including WWII’s “Tokyo Rose” and the allegations against Edward Snowden and Donald Trump, Larson provides a riveting account of treason law in action.  
 
 
On Treason is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand this fundamental aspect of our legal system. With this short, accessible look at the law’s history and meaning, Larson clarifies who is actually guilty—and readers won’t need a law degree to understand why. 
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
