    The mummy’s curse…it’s far stranger than I could’ve ever imagined. 
    The pharaoh brought me to the royal palace. He selected me as his newest servant. 
    He wrapped me from head to toe. I can’t see. I can barely hear. There’s only one part of my body that’s been left exposed. 
    That sensitive, intimate region is my sole connection to the outside world. 
    And the pharaoh uses it. He uses it hard. 
    We’re performing a dark, forbidden ritual. The longer I stay like this, the deeper I sink. My body is transforming for my master. Like a butterfly wrapped in a cocoon, I’m morphing into something truly beautiful. 
    Something truly shocking.

    Some of the most important and little-known activists of the 1960s were poor and working-class radicals. Inspired by the Civil Rights movement, the Black Panthers, and progressive populism, they started to organize significant political struggles against racism and inequality during the 1960s and into the 1970s. 
     
     
      
    Historians of the period have traditionally emphasized the work of white college activists who courageously took to the streets to protest the war in Vietnam and continuing racial inequality. Poor and working-class whites have often been painted as spectators, reactionaries, and, even, racists. But authors James Tracy and Amy Sonnie disprove that narrative. 
     
     
      
    Through over ten years of research, interviewing activists along with unprecedented access to their personal archives, Tracy and Sonnie tell a crucial, untold story of the New Left. Their deeply sourced narrative history shows how poor and working-class individuals from diverse ethnic, rural and urban backgrounds cooperated and drew strength from one another. The groups they founded redefined community organizing, and transformed the lives and communities they touched.

    The inside story of the creation of Ozempic and its revolutionary impact on public health.A “cure” for obesity has long been the holy grail for the pharmaceutical industry, one that seemed unattainable until recent breakthroughs in type 2 diabetes research led to the development of Ozempic, a weight loss medication that activates a hormone in the stomach called GLP-1, making people feel fuller for longer. The treatment is so effective that it is already disrupting many industries—from healthcare to fast food to fashion—and it has quickly made its creator, Denmark’s Novo Nordisk, the most valuable company in Europe. But the impact of GLP-1s goes far beyond billion-dollar profits; a true long-term cure for obesity could save 40 percent of American adults from dangerous, preventable illnesses. And as more potential benefits emerge, one question looms in the minds of investors, healthcare workers, and politicians: Are these drugs too good to be true?In Off the Scales, Reuters journalist Aimee Donnellan illuminates the history of a medical breakthrough that is poised to change the world, while raising difficult social questions about inequality and morality. Through original reporting and rigorous research, she forecasts the future of GLP-1s and examines what their explosive popularity tells us about our ideals of beauty and the lengths to which people will go in order to become thin.Along the way, Donnellan profiles the scientist whose contributions to the discovery of GLP-1 were overlooked, documents her fight for recognition while her colleagues were thrust into the limelight, and offers new insights into the ways that the food and beauty industries made billions while promoting unhealthy and unrealistic body image standards and accelerating the obesity crisis. She also provides firsthand accounts of several early Ozempic users and the transformative effect the drug has had on their weight loss journeys.Off the Scales is an informative and entertaining study of the unexpected consequences of finally getting what we’ve wanted for so long.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press

    Is the New World Order merely a fringe conspiracy theory—or is it a chilling reality unfolding right before our eyes? This book dares you to uncover the truth. 
    As humanity spirals further into social and political chaos, the warning signs—so many times broadcast and ignored—have become impossible to dismiss. We've been lulled into complacency, manipulated by fear, and distracted by carefully orchestrated lies. All the while, a hidden agenda advances in the shadows: the rise of a totalitarian one-world regime. 
    Through propaganda, psychological manipulation, and mass distraction, the architects of this New World Order have managed to keep the population in a trance-like state—obedient, compliant, and unaware. But this book is a wake-up call. Within these pages lies the information they don't want you to see. 
    It exposes what has already been done, what is happening right now beneath the surface, and—most disturbingly—what comes next. The truth is both shocking and undeniable. 
    Many of the warnings revealed may seem outrageous at first glance. But don't be so quick to dismiss them—because they are real. Once you've read this book from cover to cover, you'll see the world through different eyes. You'll realize how thoroughly we've been deceived, conditioned, and controlled—to obey, consume, submit, and never question authority. 
    The trance must be broken. And the truth is the key.
