  Saving Ourselves from Big Car

  Cars are killing people and making the planet uninhabitable. Crashes take the lives of more than a million people each year. Air pollution linked to motor vehicles contributes to even more untimely deaths. Highways and unsafe streets have devastated cities, yet traffic congestion still swallows up countless hours. And carbon emissions from transportation are a key driver of climate change, which threatens to make the world unlivable. Why do we still worship at the altar of the car? How can we find alternatives that are healthier for the planet and ourselves? 
    
  This book exposes how "Big Car"—the complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependence—has pursued profit at the expense of the common good. David Obst explores how Big Car gained almost immeasurable influence over our lives, weighing the benefits and the costs of reliance on private automobiles. He details how industry covered up the harms of lead additives, fought against seatbelts, and continues to fund climate-change denialism. Obst considers the future of mobility, surveying how cities are experimenting with forms of transportation that offer alternatives to the dominance of cars. Provocative and comprehensive, Saving Ourselves from Big Car is a wake-up call for us to change how we use cars before it's too late.

  How America Worksand Why It...

  William Cooper

  Twenty-first-century America isn’t working the way it’s supposed to. 
  This book explains why. 
  Americans in the twenty-first century are becoming increasingly untethered from both reality and the essential principles and traditions that have shaped the nation’s historic success. A big part of why America isn’t working is because far too many Americans neither know nor care how it’s supposed to work. 
  “William Cooper presents an insightful, sensitive, and accessible account of the trials that face American democracy in the twenty-first century. This fair- and broad-minded volume makes compelling reading for those who are looking to build a better democracy.” Alexander Yen, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Oxford 
  “Partisanship fuels personal convictions more than ever in our society, and convictions fuel mysided thinking and other cognitive biases. At no time have we needed this discussion of bias and partisan thinking more than now.” Keith E. Stanovich, author of The Bias That Divides Us 
  “William Cooper logically and authoritatively takes you step by step through all the reasons a President Trump couldn’t imprison his enemies, pardon his friends, overrule judges, weaponize the Department of Justice, prosecute Joe Biden, or order the military to enforce his unconstitutional actions” Cleveland Plain Dealer 
  “William Cooper is an insightful and thought-provoking writer about US politics. He deserves to be widely read.” Thomas Plate, former Editorial Page Editor, Los Angeles Times 
  "In How America Works . . . and Why It Doesn’t, William Cooper gives a thoughtful, readable guide to what ails American democracy. Required reading for any student of political science.” Uri Kaufman, author of Eighteen Days in October 
  "A must-read. His well-written and brief book covers a lot of important ground in a learned but accessible manner. Probably most noteworthy, though, is his astute and fair judgment―the book is not a polemic for the left or the right, but rather a fair appraisal of the strengths and weaknesses of both. I highly recommend reading it―it is an enjoyable tour of key aspects of history (as well as current events), ethics, political philosophy, constitutional law, environmental science, and cognitive psychology―all told in a lucid, efficient way." William O'Donohue, PhD, Professor, University of Nevada, Reno

  The Digital Paradigm Shift - A...

  The journey into the digital age began with the spark of human ingenuity and the desire to simplify complex tasks. Early civilizations laid the groundwork for computation by devising systems to manage trade, record history, and calculate astronomical events. These early tools, such as the abacus and mechanical calculators, may seem rudimentary by modern standards, yet they were the building blocks of a monumental transformation. 
  In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the seeds of the digital age began to take root. Pioneers like Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace envisioned the potential of programmable machines long before the technology to build them existed. Lovelace's notes on Babbage's Analytical Engine contained the first algorithm intended for implementation on a machine, earning her recognition as the world’s first computer programmer. Their ideas laid a conceptual foundation that would inspire future innovators. 
  The advent of World War II catalyzed the development of modern computing. The need for advanced cryptography, ballistics calculations, and logistical coordination drove governments and researchers to invest in computational technologies. Alan Turing, often referred to as the father of computer science, developed the Turing Machine, a theoretical construct that became a cornerstone of computer science. His work at Bletchley Park, cracking the German Enigma code, not only shortened the war but also showcased the immense potential of automated computation.
