Spy Tiger: The 05 File is a memoir by Kagusthan Ariaratnam with Michael Bramadat-Willcock; an award-winning journalist, editor, andresearcher.

At just 17 years old, Kagusthan was kidnapped from his high school and thrust into the ranks of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), the militant organization infamous for its brutal tactics in the Sri Lankan Civil War. Kagusthan quickly became an intelligence officer as a child soldier, working alongside the Tiger leadership.

Outlaw Patients is a raw, darkly funny, and fiercely honest memoir about trying to survive in a system that wasn’t built to help.

Sometime in the future, when social scientists begin to write the first books about the failures of the West and the defunct American experiment, they will all confront this basic truth. Despite all the proclamations of freedom and equality, the realities of racism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, and gross economic inequalities constantly belied these ideals. The narcissism and the racism the US and the West harbors through their blind commitment to individualism is destabilizing enough on its own to terrorize and implode nation-states.

Project 2030 is more than a book—it’s a blueprint for transformation. At a time when racial wealth gaps are widening, health inequities persist, and democracy itself feels fragile, Sean T. Long and a team of visionary co-authors deliver a bold, actionable plan to move Black America from survival to power.

Wasted Talent is a call to action against a system that has failed workers for too long. The future of work was supposed to be about more innovation, flexibility, and opportunity for all, but for most it has brought nothing but unfulfilled promises. Work isn’t working for everyone—and the cost is staggering.

The example of the Greek philosopher Diogenes, who lived "a dog's life," sleeping, teaching, having sex in the public square, sets the tone for this extraordinary, genre-bending memoir.

It breaks the form into eight core concept areas—naming conventions, addresses, family relationships, employment and schooling, duration of time, perfect-tense question structures (“have you ever”), memberships and associations, and promises and oaths.

En estrecha conexión con la actualidad, este libro aborda algunas de las batallas filosóficas más intensas y decisivas de la historia, aquellas que siguen protagonizando hoy esa lucha por la «hegemonía» —tal y como la definió Gramsci—. El siglo xxi se decidirá de nuevo como un choque de ideas. Si el XX enfrentó al totalitarismo y el liberalismo, la nueva centuria será también la del conflicto renovado entre el autoritarismo y sus opositores.

La globalización ha producido sensaciones de impotencia en millones de personas en Occidente. Ese sentimiento de indefensión genera resentimiento y un afán por buscar culpables. Se culpa a los inmigrantes. Se culpa a los musulmanes. Se culpa a otras razas. Se culpa a la élite cultural. Basándose en una combinación de ejemplos históricos y contemporáneos, Nussbaum desenreda en La monarquía del miedo toda esta maraña de sentimientos y nos proporciona así una hoja de ruta para que sepamos hacia dónde dirigir nuestros pasos a partir de aquí.

Cristina Olea ha escrito algunas de las mejores crónicas recabadas en sus años de corresponsal para descifrar una nación de contradicciones centenarias. La gran fractura americana ofrece, para el lector en español, un análisis único y profundo de lo que está pasando. Si para los republicanos Estados Unidos significa ante todo libertad, para los demócratas es fundamentalmente diversidad. La fractura no es nueva, pero Donald Trump y Kamala Harris la encarnan en una campaña electoral insólita.

Reportage: Essays on the New World Order examines the roots, culture, mindset and insatiable and ruthless lust for power of globalist institutions and interests. James offers not only clarity on the Who, What, How and Why of hidden and suppressed histories, but also presents alternatives, and-yes-even hope for the free and sovereign individual in a world seemingly locked down by The Powers that Be.

Pourquoi, en 2026, l’autoritarisme revient-il partout — en politique, au travail, dans les familles — alors qu’on n’a jamais autant parlé de liberté, d’autonomie et de collaboration? Dans ce livre aussi éclairant que mordant, Alain Samson dévoile comment l’autoritarisme se forme, se glisse dans nos habitudes, se camoufle dans nos structures… et pourquoi nous continuons trop souvent à l’accepter.

From the first flicker of gesture around the prehistoric fire to the endless hum of machine speech in the digital age, this book traces the evolution of communication — and with it, the evolution of thought, culture, and consciousness itself. Language is the foundation of civilization: the matrix from which society, morality, and meaning arise. Yet it is also our most dangerous creation — capable of liberation or control, truth or deception, empathy or manipulation. Through language, we built worlds; through language, we can also destroy them.

This book has an entirely practical aim: to inspire the adoption of a new set of values that establishes goals and incentives to do more with less so we use fewer resources to sustain a high quality of life that’s accessible to all who embrace these values and contribute to a fairer, more sustainable way of living.
