The Canceling of the American Mind
Why bother refuting your opponents, when you can just take away their platform or career?
Greg Lukianoff was one of the first to raise the alarm about the troubling social and psychological consequences of the growing intolerance of opposing viewpoints on university campuses in America; a phenomenon which then swept through the English-speaking world.
In this new book, he teams up with Rikki Schlott to show how this trend has spread to a wide range of workplaces and cultural spaces, which are giving up on a culture of free speech in favour of cancel culture. Drawing on original research and data, along with hundreds of new examples from publishing to psychotherapy, comedy, science and medicine, this book shows how the left and the right both work to silence their enemies in different ways. It's not simply a matter of Twitter spats; people are losing their jobs, livelihoods and sometimes their lives over it.
Eye-opening, urgent and transformative, The Canceling of the American Mind argues that cancel culture is not merely a moral panic, but a dysfunctional way in which people battle for power, status and dominance: moving us away from being able to argue productively, listen generously and ultimately be civil when we disagree. This book offers concrete steps towards reclaiming a culture of free speech, with materials specifically tailored for parents, teachers, business leaders and all those who use social media. It shows how we can all harness intellectual humility to become more resilient and open minded.

American queen - Amerikai királynő
Greer Galloway vagyok, és az Amerikai Egyesült Államok elnökének gyönyörét szolgálom.
Már fiatal lányként arra figyelmeztettek, hogy "Ne osztogasd a csókjaidat".
Kétszer is eleresztettem ezt az intelmet a fülem mellett, és a szívemet mind a kétszer fájdalmasan összetörték. Harmadszor már tanultam a leckéből, és örökre lemondtam a szerelemről.
De Colchester elnök nem mondott le rólam, de nem ám!
Én még annak idején Ash-ként, a katonaként ismertem meg. Törött üvegszilánkok körében csókoltam meg. Nem felejtettem el megszegett ígéreteit és tiltott vágyait. De az ország a szabad világ vezetőjeként ismeri, az egyetlenként, aki megóvhat minket a háborútól.
Ash elkeseredetten meg akar szerezni magának, ezért a legjobb barátját, Embryt küldi értem, hogy vigyen el hozzá. Nem tudja, hogy nekünk is vannak titkaink, Tragédiáink. Vágyaink. Egy második csók köt össze minket. És nemsokára múlt és jelen, gyönyör és fájdalom kelepcéjében vergődöm, két férfi között, aki egymás után ugyanúgy sóvárognak, mint utánam. És miközben egyre nagyobb nyomással nehezedik ránk a háború és az árulás, belesodródunk egy olyan szenvedélyes szerelmi viszonyba, ami megváltoztatja a világot.
A USA Today sikerszerzője átülteti korunkba Artúr király, Ginevra és Lancelot lovag történetét egy elegáns, érzéki és felejthetetlen regényben.

The American Crisis
The American Crisis was a series of pamphlets published from 1776 to 1783 during the American Revolution by eighteenth century Enlightenment philosopher and author Thomas Paine. The first volume begins with the famous words "These are the times that try men's souls". There were sixteen pamphlets in total together often known as "The American Crisis" or simply "The Crisis". Thirteen numbered pamphlets were published between 1776-1777 with three additional pamphlets released between 1777-1783. The writings were contemporaneous with the early parts of the American Revolution, during the times that colonists needed inspiring.They were written in a language the common man could manage and are indicative of Paine's liberal philosophies. Paine signed them with one of his many pseudonyms "Common Sense". The writings bolstered the morale of the American colonists, appealed to the English people's consideration of the war with America, clarified the issues at stake in the war and denounced the advocates of a negotiated peace.

Electric City: The Lost History of Ford and Edison's American Utopia
The extraordinary, unknown story of two giants of American history-Henry Ford and Thomas Edison-and their attempt to create an electric-powered city of tomorrow on the Tennessee River During the roaring twenties, two of the most revered and influential men in American business proposed to transform one of the country's poorest regions into a dream technological metropolis, a shining paradise of small farms, giant factories, and sparkling laboratories. Henry Ford and Thomas Edison's "Detroit of the South" would be ten times the size of Manhattan, powered by renewable energy, and free of air pollution. And it would reshape American society, introducing mass commuting by car, use a new kind of currency called "energy dollars," and have the added benefit (from Ford and Edison's view) of crippling the growth of socialism.The whole audacious scheme almost came off, with Southerners rallying to support what became known as the Ford Plan. But while some saw it as a way to conjure the future and reinvent the South, others saw it as one of the biggest land swindles of all time. They were all true.Electric City is a rich chronicle of the time and the social backdrop, and offers a fresh look at the lives of the two men who almost saw the project to fruition, the forces that came to oppose them, and what rose in its stead: a new kind of public corporation called the Tennessee Valley Authority, one of the greatest achievements of the New Deal. This is a history for a wide audience, including readers interested in American history, technology, politics, and the future.
American Hungarian Trilogy
In Book One of Peter Hargitai’s American Hungarian Trilogy, a fourteen-year-old girl called Cheetah fights on the streets of Budapest during the 1956 Hungarian uprising in which her mother is killed and where she kills in turn, loses her father, her dear friends, and is forced to escape the country; in short, history stampedes through her young life forever altering its course. Book Two’s (Attila & Lyudmila) main character is a young Hungarian refugee in America, who is not an orphan (in the strict sense), still he is closely related to Cheetah, since he, too, lived through the revolution as a child, and he is faced with trying to adapt to his new life. His task is not easy: the ‘60s put him to the test in every sense of that volatile period, especially when he falls in love with an American girl to the intense displeasure of both their families. The ensuing conflict forces the young man to take stock of himself as he struggles with the seemingly unanswerable questions of his hyphenated identity.
