    For the first time, a collection of testimonials gives voice to the children of lesbian couples. Sixteen of them answer the questions many people ask: does living without a father pose a problem? Do children of gay couples necessarily become gay or lesbian? Do their families share the same values as others?
    The interviewees were aged between eleven and thirty-one. They were conceived either by insemination or during previous relationships. Today, they are students, police officers or producers. They have agreed to confide in us their joys, their worries, their troubles, their hopes and the way “others” look at them.

    Journey into the heart of one of the greatest collapses in human history. Collapse and Conflict: The Fall and Fracturing of the Roman Empire (3 in 1) is a powerful collection that captures the drama, chaos, and slow disintegration of a civilization once thought invincible. As the Roman Empire crumbled beneath the weight of corruption, invasions, economic turmoil, and internal strife, the echoes of its decline would shape the course of Western civilization for centuries to come. 
    This volume includes three richly detailed works. The Fall of Rome provides a sweeping account of the final days of the Western Empire, examining the pressures both from within and beyond its borders. Glory and Decay explores the transformation of Rome’s grandeur into fragmentation, as cities crumbled, institutions weakened, and emperors rose and fell in rapid succession. Finally, The Roman Empire Uncovered digs deeper into the myths and realities of the Empire’s decline, revealing the lesser-known events, key figures, and regional shifts that contributed to Rome’s ultimate disintegration. 
    Blending historical narrative with insightful analysis, this trilogy is ideal for readers passionate about ancient history, the rise and fall of empires, and the enduring legacy of Rome. Whether you're a student, scholar, or curious reader, these pages offer a captivating exploration of a world on the edge of collapse—and the birth of what came next.

    Morning After the Revolution takes you on a gripping journey through the aftermath of a progressive movement that promised sweeping change but struggled with practical realities. The author reflects on their personal experiences within the rise of New Progressivism, analyzing the lofty ideals, the disappointments, and the unintended consequences that unfolded in key cities like San Francisco. Through a critical examination of issues such as homelessness, identity politics, and the influence of financial backing, this audiobook delivers a sobering yet insightful exploration of how well-intended policies can sometimes miss their mark.
     
    Narrated with clarity and purpose, this audiobook dives deep into the challenges of balancing idealism with pragmatism in a rapidly changing world. The author critiques the ways in which progressive movements, while striving for justice, often lose sight of the very people they aim to uplift, becoming bogged down in ideological purity and short-term fixes. With a dynamic and thought-provoking tone, this audiobook offers listeners not just a critique of social movements, but also a call to rethink how we can make real, lasting progress.
