How Polarization Begets...

Samuel Merrill III, Thomas L....

Extreme polarization in American politics is perhaps the most confounding political phenomenon of our time. This book binds together polarization in Congress and polarization in the electorate within an ever-expanding feedback loop. This loop is powered by the discipline exerted by the respective political parties on their Congressional members and district candidates and endorsed by the voters in each Congressional district who must choose between the alternatives offered. Tight national party discipline produces party delegations in Congress that are widely separated from one another but each ideologically narrowly distributed. 
 
 
 
As district constituencies become more polarized and are egged on by activists, parties are further motivated to appeal to their respective bases rather than to voters in the ideological center. America has indeed acquired parties with clear platforms—once thought to be a desirable goal—but these parties are now feuding camps. What resolution might there be? Just as the progressive movement slowly replaced the Gilded Age, might a new reform effort replace the current squabble? Or could an asymmetry develop in the partisan constraints that would lead to ascendancy of the center, or might a new and over-riding issue generate a cross-cutting dimension, opening the door to a new politics? Only the future will tell.

My Blue Book of Grammar for Class 5

Meigha Rawat

A Grammar Series That Uses the Functional Approach

KEY FEATURES

DESCRIPTION:
My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

- Understand grammar concepts
- Learn how to use different vocabulary concepts taught through language-in-use

Designed to Fail - How Modern...

Manuel Alessandro Collazo

What if the systems we rely on don’t just fail to solve societal problems, but are designed to perpetuate them? If the very things that make life meaningful—well-being, human connection, and stability—are sacrificed to uphold fragile economic structures, is life within these systems truly worth living? When health declines, relationships fracture, and communities dissolve, what remains?
Uncovering the hidden mechanics of the crisis economy, this book reveals how manufactured crises fuel economic growth, turning fear, division, and instability into the most valuable commodities. It explores how industries sustain themselves not by solving problems, but by ensuring they never truly disappear. From the processed food industry to digital isolation, media-driven polarization, and pharmaceutical dependence, systemic instability isn’t a flaw—it’s a feature of the modern economic model.
Beyond exposing the problem, this book asks whether an alternative is possible. Can ethical industry scale without being consumed by the system it seeks to challenge? How can modern technologies like AI and blockchain be harnessed to ensure integrity? Can individuals reclaim autonomy in a world designed to keep them in a perpetual state of anger and uncertainty? And if ethical industry is achievable, can it meaningfully reduce the suffering embedded in the systems that sustain it, or is profit through human hardship an unavoidable reality?
This book doesn’t just expose these systems—it challenges the individual to look within, reclaim their agency, and recognize their ability to chip away at the structures of suffering, generating small but powerful ripples of positive change that may one day shape a brighter future.
For those seeking to understand the quiet, systemic degeneration of modern societies, this book is your starting point.
