Summary

"French Revolution" explores the pivotal overthrow of the French monarchy, examining the complex interplay of social, political, and economic factors that fueled this transformative period in world history. The book delves into the conditions of 18th-century France, highlighting the rigid social hierarchy and economic inequalities under the Ancien Régime, as well as the rise of Enlightenment ideals that challenged traditional authority. The detailed background sets the stage for understanding how simmering discontent erupted into revolution.

The book meticulously examines the major phases of the revolution, from the storming of the Bastille to the Reign of Terror and the ascent of Napoleon Bonaparte. It emphasizes that the revolution was not merely a spontaneous outburst but a culmination of systemic failures and emerging political ideologies. By drawing upon primary and secondary sources, including statistical data, the book provides a rigorous account of this era.

It culminates in an analysis of the revolution's global impact, tracing its influence on subsequent political movements and the spread of democratic ideals, demonstrating how the Revolution's ideals of civic responsibilities are echoed in modern governance. This book offers a fresh perspective on the French Revolution, moving beyond traditional narratives to explore the agency of ordinary people in shaping history. It begins by introducing key concepts and context, progresses through the revolution's major events, and concludes with an analysis of its lasting global impact. This comprehensive and accessible approach makes it valuable for anyone interested in history, political science, and the social sciences.

Giugliano da Empoli

How do you defend democracy when the rules have changed?
Presidents turning into monarchs. Tech tycoons and autocrats intent on global regime change. Armies of cyber trolls.

Former political advisor Giuliano da Empoli takes us on an insider's journey through this new geopolitical reality, from the Glass Palace of the UN to the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton, from top secret meetings to violent power struggles. We encounter dictators and tyrants, strongmen and AI billionaires - geopolitical predators, and the flailing leaders who desperately try to appease them.

The Disappearance - Conspiracy...

PhD Steven Kubacki, Dylan Quarles

In 1978, Steven Kubacki disappeared without a trace near Lake Michigan. Fifteen months later, he reappeared—disoriented, in unfamiliar clothes, and claiming no memory of what had happened. For over four decades, the mystery of his disappearance gripped armchair detectives, Reddit sleuths, and TikTok theorists. Now, for the first time, Kubacki tells his story in his own words. 
 
The Disappearance is not just a memoir—it's a reckoning with identity, conspiracy, and higher consciousness. With raw honesty and philosophical depth, Kubacki unpacks his past as a rebellious student, the secrets behind the Nexalistic Revolutionary Front (NRF), and his journey through spiritual encounters, political awakening, and a mission to change the world. 
 
This is the untold truth behind one of the most baffling disappearances in American history. Blending memoir, manifesto, and metaphysical exploration, The Disappearance takes listeners into interdimensional realities, clandestine operations, and Kubacki's decades-long search for meaning in a chaotic world. 
 
If you liked The Redemption of Bobby Love, Moral Man, or Con/Artist, then you'll love The Disappearance.

Code White - Sounding the Alarm...

Margaret M. Keith, James T. Brophy

When health care workers call a Code White, it’s an emergency response for a violent incident: a call for help. But it’s one that goes unanswered in hospitals, clinics, and long-term care homes across the country. Code White exposes a shocking epidemic of violence that’s hidden in plain sight, one in which workers are bruised, battered, assaulted, and demeaned, but carry on in silence, with little recourse or support.
		 
Researchers Margaret M. Keith and James T. Brophy lay bare the stories of over one hundred nurses and personal support workers, aides and porters, clerical workers and cleaners. The nightmarish experiences they relate are not one-off incidents, but symptoms of deep systemic flaws that have transformed health care into one of the most dangerous occupational sectors in Canada.
		 
The same questions echo in the wake of each and every brutal encounter: Is violence and trauma really just “part of the job”? Why is this going underreported and unchecked? What needs to be done, and how?
