Fantastic Kingdom
'Stimulating and insightful' JONATHAN FREEDLAND'The perfect observer of a UK in crisis' JAMES HAWESWelcome to the Kingdom of Contradictions. Global yet insular, tolerant yet suspicious, proudly pragmatic yet profoundly sentimental. The United Kingdom inspires fierce loyalty and endless argument. Ten years after Brexit, it is as divided as ever. After twenty years of studying Britain, German historian Helene von Bismarck offers an affectionate and insightful portrait of the United Kingdom as seen by an outsider. From the enduring fantasy of Britain as a self-sufficient island to the profound devotion to a global monarchy; from imperial amnesia to modern multiculturalism, she explores the paradoxes and myths that shape British identity. Clear-eyed and witty, Fantastic Kingdom is a letter from a friend, revealing why the question of what unites the country has never mattered more than now, at a time of dramatic geopolitical change when liberal democracy is under attack. Looking backwards into history, and outwards into the global context, she closes the gap between how Britain understands itself and how it is seen abroad.

41
A call for a restoration of professionalism in American government, as illustrated by the life of President George H. W. BushGeorge H. W. Bush is often regarded as the most well-prepared president ever to occupy the Oval Office. Though raised in a world of privilege, Bush was grounded in the belief that character and achievement were essential to serve the common good. In today’s political landscape, these motivations are hardly prided as hallmarks of a great leader—and our nation is experiencing the consequences of these qualities falling out of vogue. Over the course of his education, military service, business career, and decades in public life, Bush absorbed lessons from those around him, shaping a worldview rooted in service, humility, and competence. 41: George H. W. Bush and the End of the American Establishment is not only a study of what Bush learned from mentors and colleagues, but also a reflection on why experience and expertise remain vital to effective presidential leadership. “[George H. W. Bush] gets his due in this brisk, bright, insightful volume.” —Karl Rove, The Wall Street Journal “Bush’s life was defined by his character, friendships, and competitive drive to serve his country. This book explains the wellsprings of that presidential leadership.” —Robert B. Zoellick, Former Secretary of State and White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Author of America in the World: A History of U.S. Diplomacy & Foreign Policy “A timely and inspirational read.” —Jean Becker, Author of The New York Times bestseller The Man I Knew: The Amazing Story of George H.W. Bush’s Post-Presidency “I thought I knew most of what there is to know about President Bush but was proved wrong in reading this book. I highly recommend it.” —David Q. Bates Jr., Former Assistant to the President and Secretary to the Cabinet “Laurence Jurdem has done a remarkable job researching and explaining the origins and influences on George Bush’s life.” —Thomas J. Collamore, Longtime aide and senior government appointee to George H.W. Bush, and currently senior advisor to the George and Barbara Bush Foundation

Justice in Plato's Republic
In Book 4 of Plato's Republic, Socrates introduces what is regarded by scholars as the Platonic account of justice, according to which it is essentially internal and self-regarding, a matter of relations among the parts of a city or soul. In this book, Roslyn Weiss contends that there is another notion of justice, as other-regarding and external, which is to be found in a series of conversations in Book 1 between Socrates and three successive interlocutors. Weiss considers the relationship between justice as conceived in Book 1 and Book 4, and carefully examines what can be learned from each of the arguments. Her close analysis of Book 1 brings to light what Socrates really believed about justice, and extracts and explores this Book's many insights concerning justice—at both the political and the personal level.
