Synopsis

Undercover Agents explores the shadowy realm of espionage, revealing the critical role of covert operations and intelligence gathering in shaping military and political history. It examines the methods, motivations, and impact of undercover agents, whose actions often dictate the fate of nations from behind the scenes.

 
Delving into the art of disguise, the book uncovers the techniques of intelligence collection, and the ethical dilemmas inherent in covert action. One intriguing aspect is how heavily nations rely on deception as a tool of statecraft, often blurring the lines between national security and individual rights.

 
The book progresses through fundamental principles of undercover work, including tradecraft and communication, before moving into case studies analyzing famous (and infamous) agents across various geopolitical contexts. From intelligence gathering during wartime to political sabotage, the narrative highlights the moral complexities inherent in espionage.

 
It emphasizes that espionage is not merely thrilling spy stories but a crucial component of military and political strategy. The final section explores the ethical implications of undercover operations and discusses the future of espionage in an increasingly digital world.

    The United States is dogged by racism and racial disparities in income, wealth, health, education, and criminal justice. Philosophers disagree on what kind of politics is needed to address this problem. Do we pursue race-specific remedies to undo racism or do we assume the permanence of racism and opt for non-race-specific remedies in pursuit of a more egalitarian society? Paradoxically, the way to make racial progress in racist America is to downplay race. 
     
     
     
    In A Realistic Blacktopia, political philosopher Derrick Darby challenges the "small tent" approach by examining U.S. Supreme Court cases on education and voting rights arguing that they hold general lessons about the limits of racial politics. Securing racial justice in racist America calls for "big tent" remedies, and Darby argues that pursuing non-race-specific remedies with maximal democratic inclusion is a necessary strategy for mitigating racial inequality and achieving racial justice. 
     
     
     
    A Realistic Blacktopia offers clarity on how racism persists, contrary to claims that America is a post-racial society. Explaining why the myth of post-racialism cannot be ignored in crafting remedies for racial inequality, Darby supplies a principled pragmatic proposal for achieving racial justice. Darby also explains why achieving racial justice requires inclusive democracy.

    Leading-edge empirical observations are increasingly difficult to reconcile with "scientific" materialism. Laboratory results in quantum mechanics, for instance, strongly indicate that there is no autonomous world of tables and chairs out there. Coupled with the inability of materialist neuroscience to explain consciousness, this is forcing both science and philosophy to contemplate alternative worldviews. Analytic idealism—the notion that reality, while equally amenable to scientific inquiry, is fundamentally mental—is a leading contender to replace "scientific" materialism.  
     
     
     
    In this book, the broad body of empirical evidence and reasoning in favor of analytic idealism is reviewed in an accessible manner. The book brings together a number of highly influential essays previously published by major media outlets such as Scientific American and the Institute of Art and Ideas. The essays have been revised and improved, while two never-before-published essays have been added. The resulting argument anticipates a historically imminent transition to a scientific worldview that, while elegantly accommodating all known empirical evidence and predictive models, regards mind not matter as the ground of all reality.

    From the “Trail of Tears” to Wounded Knee and Little Bighorn, the narrative of American history is incomplete without the inclusion of the Native Americans that lived on the continent before European settlers arrived in the 16th and 17th centuries. Since the first contact between natives and settlers, tribes like the Sioux, Cherokee, and Navajo have both fascinated and perplexed outsiders with their history, language, and culture.  
    The Shoshone are still remembered for their assistance, especially Sacagawea, and they maintained contact with Americans throughout the 19th century, but unfortunately, the cooperation gave way to conflict as white settlers began to move westward and enter onto lands occupied by the Shoshone.  
    	On the morning of November 29, 1864, Colonel John Chivington led 700 militiamen in a surprise attack against Cheyenne leader Black Kettle's camp at Sand Creek. Chivington was a fire and brimstone Methodist minister who had publicly advocated indiscriminately killing Native American children because “nits makes lice.” According to Cheyenne oral tradition and several surviving soldiers' accounts, as soon as Black Kettle saw Chivington’s men coming, he raised an American flag on a pole and waved it back and forth calling out that his Wutapai band was not resisting. Ignoring his cries for mercy, the soldiers commenced firing, cutting down an estimated 70-200 Cheyenne, about two-thirds of whom were women and children.  
    	Among all the events in the strained relations between the U.S. government and Native Americans during the 19th century, the most notorious and defining one was what is today called the Wounded Knee Massacre. Technically, it was the last armed engagement between Sioux warriors and the U.S. military, and it marked the end of effective resistance by any Sioux bands, but what actually occurred is far more controversial.

    Few figures in Christian history bridge denominational divides and cultural narratives like St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. Revered for over fifteen centuries, Patrick’s life and mission stand as a beacon of spiritual courage, theological depth, and the enduring power of God’s grace. 
    In this illuminating exploration, Saint Patrick delves into the man behind the legend. From his dramatic early years as a Roman Briton enslaved by Irish raiders to his calling as a missionary in the land of his captivity, Patrick’s story is one of transformation, faith, and unwavering devotion. 
    Taking a look through the lens of both Catholic and Protestant perspectives, this book offers a nuanced examination of Patrick’s life and ministry. Was he a Catholic saint, celebrated for his miracles, his role as a bishop, and his establishment of monastic centers that would transform Europe? Or was he a proto-Protestant hero, defined by his reliance on Scripture, evangelical zeal, and personal relationship with Christ?
