  A Real Right to Vote - How a...

  Throughout history, too many Americans have been disenfranchised or faced needless barriers to vote. Part of the blame falls on the Constitution, which does not contain an affirmative right to vote. The Supreme Court has made matters worse by failing to protect voting rights and limiting Congress's ability to do so. The time has come for voters to take action and push for an amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee this right for all. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on troubling stories of state attempts to disenfranchise military voters, women, African Americans, students, former felons, Native Americans, and others, Richard Hasen argues that American democracy can and should do better in assuring that all eligible voters can cast a meaningful vote that will be fairly counted. He shows how a constitutional right to vote can deescalate voting wars between political parties that lead to endless rounds of litigation and undermine voter confidence in elections, and can safeguard democracy against dangerous attempts at election subversion. 
   
   
   
  The path to a constitutional amendment is undoubtedly hard, especially in these polarized times. A Real Right to Vote explains what's in it for conservatives who have resisted voting reform, and reveals how the pursuit of an amendment can yield tangible dividends for democracy long before ratification.

  The book explores themes of madness, love, spirituality, and the human condition. The essays are presented as the musings of a madman who wanders the streets and countrysides, speaking in riddles and offering cryptic insights into life and the nature of existence. Through the character of the madman, Gibran explores the idea that true wisdom and understanding can only be gained by stepping outside of societal norms and expectations, and by embracing the irrational and the seemingly incomprehensible. Overall, "The Madman" is a profound and moving work that challenges readers to question their own beliefs and assumptions about the world, and to embrace the madness and uncertainty that lies at the heart of the human experience. Read in English, unabridged.

  When Columbus claimed to have discovered America in 1492, and the Borgia Pope claimed it as a New World for Catholic Spain, the Vatican started a 500 hundred year conspiracy to conceal the true story of Viking America. In this groundbreaking work by the author of The Early English Settlement of Orkney and Shetland, the true extent of the Viking discovery and colonization of the eastern seaboard of America is fully examined, taking into account the new archaeological, linguistic, and DNA evidence which supplements the historic account. For four centuries or more, from their first visits around AD 1000 to the eve of the Columbus voyages, the Vikings explored and settled thousands of miles of the coasts and rivers of North America. 
   
   
   
  From New York's Long Island to the Canadian High Arctic, the New World was a playground for Viking adventurers. And the name the Vikings gave to this New World—America.

  The Genealogy of Morals

  The Genealogy of Morals critiques modern morality by tracing its origins, arguing "good" and "evil" stem from a "slave revolt" against "master morality" where the oppressed inverted noble values, making the strong "evil" and the weak "good" out of resentment, leading to concepts like guilt and bad conscience. The work, in three essays, examines the origins of good/evil, guilt/bad conscience, and ascetic ideals, revealing morality's roots in power struggles, not divine will, and challenging the value of truth itself, suggesting humanity's drive to will something, even nothingness, defines them.
