Countering China's Great Game -...

Michael Scott Sobolik

The United States is in the midst of a new cold war with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and America is losing. That claim, at the core of Countering China's Great Game challenges the Washington, D.C. conventional wisdom about U.S.-China relations. Officials in Washington are reacting to the CCP and playing defense. Like America's efforts to contain the Soviet Union in the twentieth-century Cold War, the United States needs a strategic vision to overcome the CCP. Sobolik offers a plan for American victory over the CCP and presents a roadmap to sabotage the crux of the CCP's foreign policy: the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). 
 
 
 
The BRI is not an economic venture. It is a geopolitical gambit. Chinese leader Xi Jinping's "project of the century" has entered its second phase: leveraging yesterday's investments for today's political and military ends. Xi will never do away with the BRI because it is strengthening Beijing's strategic position from Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands to Africa and Latin America. The BRI is the apotheosis of the CCP's grand strategy. America needs a blueprint to take it down. 
 
 
 
Sobolik provides this blueprint by identifying the BRI's core weakness: imperial overstretch. Sobolik's work offers policymakers a plan to go on the offense and win America's new cold war.

Wallace A. Ragan

It’s a common belief that growth is an effortless journey, yet true growth often brings unexpected challenges that shape our cognitive behaviors. For kids and teenagers, these challenges often manifest as anxiety, depression, and trauma—formidable obstacles to their emotional and mental well-being.
As children transition into adolescence, they grapple with fitting into new environments and navigating the changes that puberty brings. Coupled with stress from school and potentially unhealthy home environments, these factors can overwhelm young minds, leaving them emotionally and mentally unstable. When left unaddressed, anxiety and depression can trap teenagers in a cycle of hopelessness. But there is hope—cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers a path to confidence and resilience.

This book is a powerful guide designed specifically for beginners, packed with practical strategies, expert insights, and evidence-based techniques.
Inside, you’ll discover the fundamentals of CBT, how to build healthy coping mechanisms, and the importance of adopting positive thinking patterns.

Mythical Creatures of the World...

Julia Blacksmith

Mythical creatures have captivated human imagination for centuries, appearing in folklore, religious texts, and even historical records. These legendary beasts serve as more than just entertaining stories—they reflect cultural values, fears, and the mysteries of the unknown. Across different civilizations, mythical beings have played vital roles in shaping traditions, inspiring art, and even influencing belief systems. From fire-breathing dragons to elusive lake monsters, these creatures continue to spark curiosity and debate. But what is it about these beings that makes them so enduring?
One reason for their lasting appeal is their connection to human experiences. Many mythical creatures represent forces of nature, embodying storms, oceans, or the deep forests where the unknown lurks. Others symbolize human emotions or moral lessons—such as the cunning trickster fox in Japanese folklore or the powerful yet wise dragon in Chinese mythology. Whether feared, worshipped, or admired, these creatures often serve as cautionary tales or representations of humanity’s struggle with the world around them.
Common themes emerge across different cultures, even in societies that had no contact with each other. Dragons, for instance, appear in both European and Asian folklore, though their interpretations differ. While European dragons are often portrayed as greedy, fire-breathing monsters to be slain by heroes, their Chinese counterparts are wise and benevolent, associated with strength and good fortune. Likewise, stories of water-dwelling serpents and half-human beings exist in legends from Scandinavia to South America, suggesting that the human mind is naturally drawn to certain archetypes.

Stalking the Atomic City - Life...

Markiyan Kamysh

Since the Chornobyl nuclear disaster in April 1986, the area remains a toxic, forbidden wasteland. The zone has become a place for meditation at the edge of geography where you can lose yourself. As with all dangerous places, this terra incognita attracts a wild assortment of adventurers who climb over the barbed wire illegally to witness the aftermath of catastrophe in the flesh. Breaking the law here is a pilgrimage: a metamodern sacred experience that coexists with thrash. 
 
 
 
Markiyan Kamysh, whose father worked as an on-site disaster liquidator of Chornobyl, works as a "stalker," guiding people who dare to venture into the disaster area for thrills. Kamysh tells us about thieves who hide in the abandoned buildings, the policemen who chase them, and the romantic utopists who have built families here, even as deadly toxic waste lingers in the buildings, playgrounds, and streams. 
 
 
 
More than extraordinary guide to this alien world, Kamysh writes with a singular style that is both brash and bold, conferring an understated elegance to this dystopian reality. Stalking the Atomic City is a haunting account of what total autonomy could mean in our growingly fractured world.
