  Why our workplaces are authoritarian private governments—and why we can't see it 
   
   
   
  One in four American workers says their workplace is a "dictatorship." Yet that number almost certainly would be higher if we recognized employers for what they are—private governments with sweeping authoritarian power over our lives. Many employers minutely regulate workers' speech, clothing, and manners on the job, and employers often extend their authority to the off-duty lives of workers, who can be fired for their political speech, recreational activities, diet, and almost anything else employers care to govern. In this compelling book, Elizabeth Anderson examines why, despite all this, we continue to talk as if free markets make workers free, and she proposes a better way to think about the workplace, opening up space for discovering how workers can enjoy real freedom.

  How to Be Forgiving

  [How to Be Forgiving] delves into the intricate landscape of human emotion with unflinching honesty and profound insight, examining the peculiar way we hold onto hurts like rain-soaked clothes, heavy and familiar against our skin. Through intimate prose that reads like a confession shared between friends, this meditation on forgiveness illuminates the small, daily acts of letting go that shape our capacity for healing. The book's revolutionary perspective challenges conventional wisdom, arguing that forgiveness isn't a destination but rather a continuous practice, like breathing – something we need to do consciously at first, then naturally, until it becomes part of who we are. With its lyrical exploration of the stories we tell ourselves and the weight of unspoken words, this guide transforms our understanding of what it means to forgive, revealing how the journey toward release becomes an act of self-liberation rather than a gift bestowed upon others.
