Synopsis

A powerful exploration of the financial realities women face as they age — and the resilience, reinvention, and relationships that sustain them.
		 
Women are living longer than ever, but for many, those extra years come with financial uncertainty. This book tells the stories of women who, after raising children, managing households, and working in fulfilling careers, find themselves now alone and surviving on the edge.
		 
A national housing crisis hits harder when the gender pension gap leaves women with significantly less retirement income than men, but this crisis isn’t inevitable. A CEO, a legal scholar, and a feminist economist offer essential advice on careers, pensions, and relationships, while the voice of a young writer from Lainey Gossip reveals why financial independence is non-negotiable.
		 
This book looks at how women can embrace this new longevity with strength and purpose. A wake-up call for women of all ages, it is an inspiring testament to the lasting social and economic contributions of women.
		 
The astonishing lives of older women are not defined by money or men. They are defined by resilience, purpose, desire, and the unbreakable bonds of female friendship.

    If it seems like everyone you know is playing Dungeons & Dragons, it's because they are! After nearly five decades, the iconic roleplaying game is more popular than ever. Famous Hollywood actors and directors, therapists, educators, politicians, kids, parents, and grandparents all count themselves as fans. In Welcome to Dragon Talk, hosts of the official D&D podcast Shelly Mazzanoble and Greg Tito and their surprising guests show how this beloved pastime has amassed a diverse, tight-knit following of players who defy stereotypes. 
     
     
      
    Shelly and Greg recount some of their most inspiring interviews and illuminate how their guests use the core tenets of the game in everyday life. An A-list actor defends D&D by baring his soul (and his muscles) on social media. A teacher in a disadvantaged district in Houston creates a D&D club that motivates students to want to read and think analytically. A writer and live-streamer demonstrates how D&D–inspired communication breaks barriers and empowers people of color. Listeners will see why Dungeons & Dragons has remained such a pop culture phenomenon and how it has given this disparate and growing community the inspiration to flourish and spread some in-game magic into the real world.

    America's Great-Power...

    It has become axiomatic to contend that U.S. foreign policy must adapt to an era of renewed "great-power competition." The United States went on a quarter-century strategic detour after the Cold War, the argument goes, basking in triumphalism and getting bogged down in the Middle East. Now China and Russia are increasingly challenging its influence and undercutting the order it has led since 1945. How should it respond to these two formidable authoritarian powers? 
     
     
     
    In this timely intervention, Ali Wyne offers the first detailed critique of great-power competition as a foreign policy framework, warning that it could render the United States defensive and reactive. He exhorts Washington to find a middle ground between complacence and consternation, selectively contesting Beijing and Moscow but not allowing their decisions to determine its own course. Analyzing a resurgent China, a disruptive Russia, and a deepening Sino-Russian entente, Wyne explains how the United States can seize the "great-power opportunity" at hand: to manage all three of those phenomena confidently while renewing itself at home and abroad.
