  The Functional Partnership -...

  Stop chasing the "spark" and start building a system that lasts.  
  Most marriage advice focuses on how you should feel, but feelings don't pay the bills, navigate career pivots, or resolve the exhaustion of unclear responsibilities. In this groundbreaking guide, you will discover that the primary cause of marital friction isn’t a lack of love—it’s a system failure.  
  Love brings people together, but stability is what keeps them together. The Functional Partnership moves beyond the outdated debates of dominance and the modern "Fairness Trap" of 50/50 symmetry. Instead, it provides a mechanical blueprint for a high-performing relationship built on two essential forces: Leadership and Support.  
  In these pages, you will learn:The Power of Ownership: Why one partner must "own the outcome" of specific domains to eliminate the "Responsibility Vacuum." The Navigator’s Strength: How the Support role provides the critical feedback and reinforcement that keeps the relationship on course without losing individual identity. Decision-Making Tiers: How to eliminate "gridlock by committee" by categorizing choices into autonomous, consultative, and collaborative domains. Emotional Steadiness: The discipline of being the "non-anxious presence" when life becomes chaotic. The Role Pivot: How to gracefully shift leadership and support responsibilities when health crises, career "sprints," or children change your team's capacity.

  The Science of Racism -...

  In this frank, funny, and meticulous book, a leading social scientist lays out the striking facts we know about racism, how we have uncovered them, and how we can start to fix them 
    
  Studies and surveys show, time and again, that about 50 percent of people believe that racism is no longer an issue today. The other half would disagree—vehemently. And much of the writing on the subject of race and racism is equally divisive, in large part because so much of it is based on opinion and personal experience. It’s not grounded in empiricism. It’s not science. 
    
  In The Science of Racism, social psychologist Keon West corrects that idea, moving this urgent conversation beyond anecdote and polemic in search of conclusive answers and solutions. Starting with a fascinating look at experiments around race in hiring, Dr. West brilliantly and methodically walks readers through our comprehensive understanding of this controversial topic. He looks at how racism impacts every stage and all facets of life, from birth to death, in education, work and business, friendships and relationships, police and the justice system, and healthcare. He also looks at the challenges around studying these questions and the ways we can uncover the truth, and then where we go from here: why unconscious bias training can actually make things worse, and what systems and techniques can lead us to a more equitable future.

  Policing White Supremacy - The...

  In Policing White Supremacy, former FBI agent Mike German, who worked undercover in white supremacist and militia groups, issues a wake-up call about law enforcement's dangerously lax approach to far-right violence. 
   
   
   
  Despite over a hundred deadly acts by far-right militants since the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, and the far right's attempts to obstruct transfer of power to a duly elected president on January 6, the FBI continues to deprioritize investigations into white supremacist violence, instead targeting marginalized groups. 
   
   
   
  Noting that the FBI does not even compile accurate national data on white supremacist violence, German also exposes the continuing tolerance of overt racism in law enforcement, and police membership in white supremacist organizations. The threat these officers pose became clear when at least twenty-eight current and former law enforcement officials were alleged to have participated in the 2021 Capitol breach. 
   
   
   
  Policing White Supremacy shows how the lack of transparency and accountability in federal, state, and local law enforcement has eroded public trust and undermined democracy. "Law Enforcement's Role in Resisting White Supremacy" points the way forward to a future where far-right violence is recognized and addressed as the true threat it presents to our country.

  The Shrinking Goddess - Power...

  For centuries, wild and strange stories have been told about the female body. Some empowering, many absurd, these myths have not only endured but continue to shape perceptions of women today.
  
  The Shrinking Goddess explores this legacy, gathering global tales about the female form and revealing how and why generations of men have sought to interpret, control and 'tame' women. Mineke Schipper investigates the disappearance of the original creation figure, Mother Earth, from mainstream culture, and how women's bodies have been imagined ever since: from the demon daughter of New Mexico with a toothed vagina, to the Japanese supermarkets and European festivals offering 'breast puddings' as delicacies.
  
  
  Drawing on an extraordinary archive of art, literature and folklore, Schipper reclaims the female body as a place of power, creativity and possibility.

  "An unflinching memoir of a spy during a tumultuous time and unsavory alliances. Dobson recounts her recruitment, training, and espionage with rare self-awareness." —Henry R. Schlesinger, author of Honey Trapped 
   
   
   
  From the snowy Soviet shooting range to the heat and dust of Africa, nothing is what it seems. And neither is Sue Dobson. 
   
   
   
  The image of South Africa in the 1980's as the golden paradise on the tip of the African continent conceals a brutal, racist Apartheid regime. Those who oppose it risk their lives. Beauty and brutality go hand in hand. 
   
   
   
  Sue Dobson, a young white South African woman lives a 'legend'—a life where she pretends to conform, moving easily through the echelons of the racist government in her work as a journalist, whilst concealing her espionage and military training in the Soviet Union, and her intelligence work for the banned African National Congress. 
   
   
   
  Matters come to a head when sinister forces try to derail the Namibian independence process and Sue's cover is blown during a difficult honey trap operation, bringing the Cold War to Africa, and leading to her desperate flight across Southern Africa with the Apartheid security police snapping at her heels.
