    "Lysis" is a dialogue by Plato that explores the nature of friendship and the qualities that make it valuable.

Socrates encounters Lysis and his friend Menexenus, and begins to question them about the nature of their friendship. Lysis and Menexenus struggle to define what makes their friendship valuable, and Socrates suggests that perhaps they are not true friends if they cannot articulate why they enjoy each other's company. Read in English, unabridged.

    Even in the midst of a nationwide surge of bias and incidents, Asians from coast to coast have quietly assumed mastery of the nation's technical and intellectual machinery and become essential American workers. Yet, they've been forced to do so in the face of policy proposals—written in the name of diversity—excluding them from the upper ranks of the elite. 
     
     
     
    Journalist Kenny Xu traces elite America's longstanding unease about a minority potentially upending them. Leftist agendas, such as eliminating standardized testing and lumping Asians into "privileged" categories have spurred Asian Americans to act. 
     
     
     
    Going beyond the Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case, Xu unearths the skewed logic rippling countrywide, from former Mayor Bill de Blasio's attempted makeover of New York City's Specialized School programs to the battle over "diversity" quotas in Google's and Facebook's progressive epicenters, to the rise of Asian American activism. 
     
     
     
    An Inconvenient Minority chronicles the political and economic repression and renaissance of a long ignored racial identity group—and how they are central to reversing America's cultural decline and preserving the dynamism of the free world.

    Linguistics and Symbols provides an in-depth look into how language, values, and symbols shape our understanding of the world. This 3-in-1 volume explores three key areas—Phonology, Axiology, and Symbology—that are foundational to the study of language, communication, and meaning. 
    The first section, Phonology, delves into the sound systems of language, examining how phonemes, tones, and patterns of speech create meaning and influence communication. It explores how different cultures and languages use sound to convey emotions, ideas, and information, showing the power of phonetics in shaping human interaction. 
    In the second section, Axiology, readers will explore the role of values in language and communication. Axiology focuses on the study of values—what people deem important and how these values influence societal structures, ethics, and language. This section highlights how language is often a reflection of the moral and cultural values of a community, shaping how we express judgments, preferences, and ideals. 
    The final section, Symbology, investigates the system of symbols and their meaning across various cultures. Symbols are powerful tools of communication, often carrying deep cultural, emotional, and historical significance. By examining symbols—whether in written form, visual representations, or gestures—this section reveals how they help convey complex ideas and how they are interpreted by different societies. 
    Linguistics and Symbols is an essential guide for anyone seeking to understand how language and symbols shape human cognition, culture, and society. It provides key insights into the fundamental components of language and meaning, offering readers a deeper appreciation of how we communicate, understand, and connect with one another through sounds, values, and symbols.
