Sinopsis

"Privacy Coins" examines the rise of cryptocurrencies designed to enhance user anonymity in an age of increasing digital surveillance. It explains how these coins, like Monero and Zcash, utilize technologies such as ring signatures and zero-knowledge proofs to offer greater privacy than traditional cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, where transactions are recorded on a public ledger. The book highlights the crucial role privacy coins could play in safeguarding individual liberties, while also acknowledging the potential for misuse, necessitating careful regulatory consideration. 

 
The book is structured in three parts; starting with the core concepts of privacy coins, then moving into the societal and political implications of the coins; and concluding with the future of privacy coins. It delves into the societal and political implications, exploring their potential use in circumventing censorship and empowering marginalized communities, while also addressing concerns about illicit activities. 

 
By combining technical analysis, legal scholarship, and economic research, this approach provides a balanced and comprehensive overview suitable for anyone interested in the intersection of digital privacy, financial technology, and politics.

    Female prisoners of conscience and activists speak out against torture in Iranian prisons 
     
    With a foreword by Shirin Ebadi, Nobel Peace Prize winner 
     
    Extended solitary confinement has been condemned as a severe violation of human rights. Yet it is still widely used in Iranian prisons. In White Torture, thirteen women, including Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, share their experiences of imprisonment: harassment and beatings by guards, total blindfolding and denial of medical treatment. Angry interrogators threaten their families and lie about their whereabouts. One prisoner is even told she is dead. 
     
    None of the women have committed crimes – they are prisoners of conscience or held hostage as bargaining chips. Through psychological torture, the Iranian state hopes to remake their souls. These interviews, carried out while each woman was in prison or facing charges, are astounding documents of resistance and integrity. White Torture unveils the rot at the heart of the Iranian legal system and calls on us to act for change.

    Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize winner, Chair of The Elders, and Chair of South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, along with his daughter, the Reverend Mpho Tutu, offer a manual on the art of forgiveness—helping us to realize that we are all capable of healing and transformation. 
    Tutu's role as the Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission taught him much about forgiveness. If you asked anyone what they thought was going to happen to South Africa after apartheid, almost universally it was predicted that the country would be devastated by a comprehensive bloodbath. Yet, instead of revenge and retribution, this new nation chose to tread the difficult path of confession, forgiveness, and reconciliation. 
    Each of us has a deep need to forgive and to be forgiven. After much reflection on the process of forgiveness, Tutu has seen that there are four important steps to healing: Admitting the wrong and acknowledging the harm; Telling one's story and witnessing the anguish; Asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness; and renewing or releasing the relationship. Forgiveness is hard work. Sometimes it even feels like an impossible task. But it is only through walking this fourfold path that Tutu says we can free ourselves of the endless and unyielding cycle of pain and retribution. The Book of Forgiving is both a touchstone and a tool, offering Tutu's wise advice and showing the way to experience forgiveness. Ultimately, forgiving is the only means we have to heal ourselves and our aching world.

    The Art of Not Caring

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    "What if the stress and overwhelm in your life aren’t caused by what you face—but by caring too much about things that don’t deserve your energy? In this liberating audiobook, Vera Mindwell challenges the belief that constant concern, emotional investment, and striving make us better or happier. Instead, she reveals how modern culture trains us to overthink, overextend, and overidentify with expectations that drain our wellbeing every day. 
    Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy, Mindwell explains why the brain clings to worries, approval, and imagined threats—and how this automatic caring becomes a mental habit we mistake for responsibility. She offers a compelling alternative: the skill of selective concern, the art of choosing what actually matters while releasing everything that never truly did. 
    Through practical strategies and evidence-based insights, you’ll learn how emotionally grounded people set boundaries without guilt, detach from unhelpful narratives, and stay centered even when life gets loud. Mindwell dismantles the myth that caring more makes you more compassionate, showing instead how intentional detachment leads to healthier relationships, clearer priorities, and genuine inner peace. 
    If you’re tired of carrying the weight of everyone’s expectations, this audiobook invites you to let go—and finally breathe again."

    Uncertain Climes looks to the late nineteenth century to reveal how climate anxiety was a crucial element in the emergence of American modernity. 
     
    Even people who still refuse to accept the reality of human-induced climate change would have to agree that the topic has become inescapable in the United States in recent decades. But as Joseph Giacomelli shows in Uncertain Climes, this is actually nothing new: as far back as Gilded Age America, climate uncertainty has infused major debates on economic growth and national development. 
      
    In this ambitious examination of late-nineteenth-century understandings of climate, Giacomelli draws on the work of scientists, foresters, surveyors, and settlers to demonstrate how central the subject was to the emergence of American modernity. Amid constant concerns about volatile weather patterns and the use of natural resources, nineteenth-century Americans developed a multilayered discourse on climate and what it might mean for the nation’s future. Although climate science was still in its nascent stages during the Gilded Age, fears and hopes about climate change animated the overarching political struggles of the time, including expansion into the American West. Giacomelli makes clear that uncertainty was the common theme linking concerns about human-induced climate change with cultural worries about the sustainability of capitalist expansionism in an era remarkably similar to the United States’ unsettled present.
