  Caring for an aging parent can raise a host of tricky questions, but these conversation-starting scripts, plus expert advice, will help you and your parent find answers. 
   
   
   
  Age-proofing an older relative's living space, figuring out powers of attorney, spotting and dealing with signs of dementia, asking them to give up the car keys or consider assisted living . . . the first step toward tackling these concerns and more is an honest, informed discussion. Here are prompts and road maps for twenty-seven essential conversations—with your parent, other family members, and health care providers—including: 
   
   
   
  ● Does my parent need help around the house? 
   
   
   
  ● What kind of medical issues should we look out for? 
   
   
   
  ● Do I really need to help my parents if they're toxic? 
   
   
   
  ● How can my family share the caregiving load? 
   
   
   
  How to approach these topics is just as important as what needs to be said, so each chapter has tips for navigating complex emotions and finding shared ground when everyone has different ideas. You'll get informed, have a productive discussion, and make a plan—so you can get back to making the most of your time with your parent.

  How six conservative media moguls hindered America and Britain from entering World War II 
  How six conservative media moguls hindered America and Britain from entering World War II 
   
   
   
  “A landmark in the political history of journalism.”—Michael Kazin, author of What It Took to Win: A History of the Democratic Party 
   
   
   
  As World War II approached, the six most powerful media moguls in America and Britain tried to pressure their countries to ignore the fascist threat. The media empires of Robert McCormick, Joseph and Eleanor Patterson, and William Randolph Hearst spanned the United States, reaching tens of millions of Americans in print and over the airwaves with their isolationist views. Meanwhile in England, Lord Rothermere’s Daily Mail extolled Hitler’s leadership and Lord Beaverbrook’s Daily Express insisted that Britain had no interest in defending Hitler’s victims on the continent. 
   
   
   
  Kathryn S. Olmsted shows how these media titans worked in concert—including sharing editorial pieces and coordinating their responses to events—to influence public opinion in a right-wing populist direction, how they echoed fascist and anti‑Semitic propaganda, and how they weakened and delayed both Britain’s and America’s response to Nazi aggression.

  The Western Han Dynasty: A History of China, PART TWO plunges into an empire driven by ambition, war, and power struggles. At its center was Emperor Wu of Han, a ruler obsessed with dominance. He expanded China's borders and strengthened its might—but every victory came with a price. Battles raged not only on the frontiers but within the palace, where conspiracies and betrayals shaped the court. 
  To defeat the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu turned to two remarkable generals: Wei Qing, a former servant who became a master strategist, and his nephew Huo Qubing, a brilliant young warrior whose daring campaigns brought sweeping victories. At court, Empress Wei Zifu—once a singer—rose to power alongside her brother’s success, only to face the ruthless politics that threatened even the most powerful. 
  Others shaped the era in shadowed ways. Zhang Tang, the emperor’s feared enforcer, ruled through terror. Historian Sima Qian risked all to record the truth. Meanwhile, the Witchcraft Calamity unleashed a storm of paranoia, leading to purges that destroyed allies and enemies alike. 
  As Emperor Wu’s reign waned, cracks in the empire deepened. His successor, Liu He, ruled for only 27 days. The once-mighty Huo family fell to court intrigue. Then, Emperor Xuan of Han—a commoner by birth—rose to power, offering hope of renewal. But could he repair an empire fractured by war and ambition, or had the Han already passed its peak?

  Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, also known as Srila Prabhupāda, was a prominent spiritual leader and revivalist of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition in early 20th-century India. He was born Bimala Prasad Datt on 6 February 1874 in the town of Jagannath Puri, in the present-day state of Odisha, India. As a child, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati showed great intellectual potential, and he received a thorough education in Sanskrit, philosophy, and theology from his father, a renowned scholar, and Vaishnava monk. After completing his studies, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati became a professor of Sanskrit and philosophy at Calcutta University. 
   
  In 1918, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati founded the Gaudiya Math, a religious institution aimed at reviving and promoting the teachings of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition. He also initiated a series of reforms within the tradition, emphasizing the importance of scriptural study, the necessity of devotional service to Krishna, and the rejection of sectarianism and caste-based discrimination. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati was a prolific writer and scholar who authored numerous books and articles on Vaisnava philosophy and theology. He also trained many disciples, including A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who later founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) and became a major figure in the spread of the Hare Krishna movement in the West. Sarasvati passed away on 1 January 1937, but his legacy continues to inspire and guide followers of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition. He is remembered for his tireless efforts to revive and promote the teachings of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the founder of the Gaudīya Vaisnava tradition, and for his commitment to spreading the message of devotional service and love of God.
