  Artificial intelligence is rapidly integrating into today's classrooms, but unlike other new technologies, AI has the potential to harm, making it difficult to take advantage of its benefits. In Critical AI in K–12 Classrooms, Stephanie Smith Budhai and Marie K. Heath draw attention to the biases embedded within AI algorithms, such as those powering OpenAI's ChatGPT and DALL-E, to guide students and teachers in developing strategies to best incorporate AI—or not—into equitable learning. 
  AI's reliance on existing data and knowledge systems means Black, queer, those with disabilities, and other marginalized students are at greater risk of being harmed by built-in limitations and bias. Budhai and Heath show how to circumvent if not actively resist such harms as machine learning, NLPs, LLMS, and GenAI enter the classroom. Their practical guide creatively answers the concerns of educators committed to forward-thinking yet fair instruction and the needs of students eager to use AI for just ends. 
  Critical AI in K–12 Classrooms meets the challenges of a key STEM technology with an eye toward cultivating a more just world. Balancing responsible learning with the joy of discovery, Budhai and Heath build a framework for AI instruction that all educators can confidently use.

  From the world’s #1 body language expert* comes the essential audiobook for decoding human behavior 
  “The ultimate body language reference. I’ll be both referring to and recommending this book on a daily basis for many years to come.” —Amy Cuddy 
  Joe Navarro has spent a lifetime observing others. For 25 years, as a Special Agent for the FBI, he conducted and supervised interrogations of spies and other dangerous criminals, honing his mastery of nonverbal communication. After retiring from the bureau, he has become a sought-after public speaker and consultant, and an internationally bestselling author. Now, a decade after his groundbreaking book What Every BODY is Saying, Navarro returns with his most ambitious work yet. The Dictionary of Body Language is a pioneering “field guide” to nonverbal communication, describing and explaining the more than 400 behaviors that will allow you to gauge anyone’s true intentions. 
  Moving from the head down to the feet, Navarro reveals the hidden meanings behind the many conscious and subconscious things we do. Readers will learn how to tell a person’s actual feelings from subtle changes in their pupils; the lip behaviors that betray concerns or hidden information; the many different varieties of arm posturing, and what each one means; how the position of our thumbs when we stand akimbo reflects our mental state; and many other fascinating insights to help you both read others and change their perceptions of you. 
  Listeners will turn to The Dictionary Body Language again and again—a body language bible for anyone looking to understand what their boss really means, interpret whether a potential romantic partner is interested or not, and learn how to put themselves forward in the most favorable light.

  In Crazies to the Left of Me, Wimps to the Right, Goldberg speaks for the millions of Americans who are saying: Enough! Enough of lunatics like Rosie O'Donnell who think ""Radical Christianity"" is ""as big a threat to America as Radical Islam."" Enough of the hyperbolic liberal rhetoric comparing Bush to Hitler and Abu Ghraib to a Saddam Hussein torture chamber. And please, enough of the military-hating crazies who run San Francisco!  
  But Goldberg has also had it with hypocritical Republicans who say they're for small government but then spend our hard-earned tax money like Imelda Marcos in a shoe store. He's also had it with weak and timid Republicans who won't stand up and fight against racial preferences, too afraid that the Al Sharptons and Jesse Jacksons of the world will call them bigots. In plain English, he's had it with Republicans who are afraid to be conservative! The 2006 election was a wake-up call, he warns, and if the wimps on the Right fail to regain their courage, recover their principles, and reclaim their sense of fiscal responsibility, the crazies on the Left just might win the White House in 2008.

  A bold examination of how Paleolithic wisdom could solve our 21st century problems 
   
  Jessica Carew Kraft, an urban wife and mom of two, was firmly rooted in the modern world, complete with a high-powered career in tech and the sneaking suspicion that her lifestyle was preventing her and her family from truly thriving.  
   
  Determined to find a better way, Jessica quit her job and set out to learn about “rewilding” from people who reject the comforts and convenience of civilization by using ancient tools and skills to survive. Along the way, she learned how to turn sticks into fire, stones into axes, and  
  bones into tools for harvesting wild food—and found an entire community walking the path back from our technologyfocused, anxiety-ridden way of life to a simpler, more human experience. 
   
  Weaving deep research and reportage with her own personal journey, Jessica tells the remarkable story of the potential benefits rewilding has for us and our planet and questions what it truly means to be a human in today’s world. Why We Need to Be Wild is a thought-provoking,  
  unforgettable narrative that illuminates how we survived in the past, how we live now, and how each of us can choose to thrive in the years ahead.

  Success among Nations

  Emil Reich

  Step into a sweeping, provocative tour of world history that asks a timeless question: why do some nations surge ahead while others stall or fall? In Success Among Nations, Emil Reich blends grand narrative with sharp psychological insight to trace the forces—economic, political, intellectual, and spiritual—that have shaped civilizations from ancient Egypt and Babylon to Greece, Rome, Renaissance Italy, modern France, Germany, Britain, Russia, and the United States. 
  This audiobook doesn’t just recount events; it dissects the human energies beneath them. Reich argues that prosperity and culture rarely rise together, that geography and city-states matter more than “race,” that alphabets and institutions can change the fate of continents, and that over-intellectualization can sap a people’s will just as surely as luxury can dull its edge. He juxtaposes Carthage’s commercial genius with Rome’s statecraft, Athens’s artistic brilliance with its political fragility, Venice’s maritime ascent with its eclipse after the Age of Discovery, and the middle-class engine of European modernity with Russia’s struggle for a true bourgeois core. Along the way, he explores how empires are won and lost, why religious movements with tiny beginnings reshape continents, and how character—national and personal—steers destiny. 
  Reich writes with bracing clarity and fearless opinion, drawing bold connections between past and present. You’ll meet conquerors and city builders, merchants and monks, reformers and revolutionaries—and see how canals, scripts, schools, armies, churches, and marketplaces forged the modern world. Whether examining the anatomy of British sea power, the organizational genius of the Jesuits, the civic soil that cultured Greek tragedy and science, or the restless dynamism of America, this is history as diagnosis and forecast.
