  DEI Exposed puts the spotlight on a Big Con: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. 
  DEI gurus siphoned funds for education into social engineering programs. They suckered and swindled some of the smartest people in the U.S., cost universities dearly in terms of funds and reputation, and ruined the livelihoods of countless faculty members. 
  DEI has fueled antisemitism on college campuses and, ironically, robbed many students of fair treatment and freedom of speech-two things DEI advocates supposedly champion. 
  How did the hustlers pull it off? 
  This book documents the dubious credentials of DEI superstars, the use of cult conversion tactics on students, the cultivation of campus informants to instill fear and suspicion, and the lawsuits that reveal DEI's virulent racialism at a high cost to universities in bad publicity and legal damages. 
  DEI Exposed maps this corruption so that we can chart a course for a restoration of higher education for years to come. 
  Ridgley reveals the striking contradictions between DEI's stated aims and its practical effects. 
  - Ram Mudambi, Frank M. Speakman Professor of Strategy, Fox School of Business, Temple University 
  The DEI monster has continually sprouted new tentacles, and Ridgley has given us an account of how it came to be its lurid self. 
  - Bruce Gilley, author of The Case for Colonialism 
  With razor-sharp analysis, Ridgley dissects how higher education compromised itself, abandoning merit and intellectual vigor in favor of pseudoscience and ideological conformity. 
  - Nicholas Giordano, Professor of Political Science and host of The P.A.S. Report Podcast 
  Dr. Stanley K. Ridgley is Clinical Full Professor of Strategic Management at Drexel University. He holds a Doctorate and Master's in International Relations and Security from Duke University and an International MBA from Temple University. He is a Russian language linguist and former Military Intelligence Officer.

  Plagues and Their Aftermath -...

  From a plague in Athens during the Peloponnesian War in 430 BCE, to another in 540 that wiped out half the population of the Roman empire, down through the Black Death in the Middle Ages and on through the 1918 flu epidemic (which killed between 50 and 100 million people) and this century's deadly SARS outbreak, plagues have been a much more relentless fact of life than many realize. 
   
   
    
  The legacy of epidemics, Brian Michael Jenkins observes, is not only one of lives lost but of devastated economies and social disorder, all of which have severe political repercussions. 
   
   
    
  Thus, each chapter of Plagues and Their Aftermath draws on those historical precursors to focus on one particular aspect of their aftermath: What happens to political systems? What happens in the area of crime and terrorism? Do wars happen? What are the effects on cultures? What was the impact of widespread fear and public hysteria, of increased suspicion and scapegoating, of the spread of rumors and conspiracy theories? 
   
   
    
  Jenkins's sobering analysis is riveting and thought-provoking listening for general listeners and specialists alike, and throws welcome light into what many fear is a dark future.
