A History of the Americas is an extraordinary narrative weaving together common threads of history of the two continents from the end of the ice ages until the present day.

Covering the breadth of one of the world’s largest and most important landmasses, A History of the Americas takes you from the emergence of the first civilizations of Norte Chico in Peru and the Olmecs in Mesoamerica to the rise of the Maya, Aztecs and Inca during the Middle Ages, as well as the remarkable settlements such as Cahokia and Mesa Verde in North America, through the tragedies of contact between New and Old Worlds to the establishment of new nations like the United States of America.

Examining themes such as trade, agriculture, politics, war, imperialism and culture along the way, the author reveals the fascinating threads that connected a diverse array of peoples and nations. Impressive monuments and architectural wonders join an array of sources in helping us understand the past of this most fascinating place.

Description:

In this book, some of Philip Towle’s major contributions are brought together to shed light on the Cold War and its aftermath.
Topics include the build-up of chemical and nuclear weapons, the attack on New York’s World Trade Center in 2001, intervention in overseas conflicts and the role of the Church. The first section concentrates on the ways in which the West has interfered in conflicts around the world from the Vietnam War to Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq, and explains why intervention worked in former Yugoslavia but not in countries such as Vietnam, Afghanistan or Libya. The second section focuses on arms control and disarmament, how they were linked to intervention – particularly through the fear of terrorism – and how and why some arms control measures succeeded, and some did not.
Intervention and Disarmament: In a Culturally Diverse World is useful for postgraduates and scholars interested in international affairs and warfare in the modern world.

Description:

A bold call for the American Left to extend their politics to the issues of Israel-Palestine, from a New York Times bestselling author and an expert on U.S. policy in the region
In this major work of daring criticism and analysis, scholar and political commentator Marc Lamont Hill and Israel-Palestine expert Mitchell Plitnick spotlight how holding fast to one-sided and unwaveringly pro-Israel policies reflects the truth-bending grip of authoritarianism on both Israel and the United States. Except for Palestine deftly argues that progressives and liberals who oppose regressive policies on immigration, racial justice, gender equality, LGBTQ rights, and other issues must extend these core principles to the oppression of Palestinians. In doing so, the authors take seriously the political concerns and well-being of both Israelis and Palestinians, demonstrating the extent to which U.S. policy has made peace harder to attain. They also unravel the conflation of…

Description:

One spell. Two Nates. Infinite chaos.
Eighteen-year-old witch Jessica Knox has three undeniable talents: overthinking everything, ruining love spells, and finding new and exciting ways to humiliate herself in front of Nate, the boy she’s been crushing on forever.
Her latest magical "masterpiece" was supposed to win his affection. Instead, it yanked his evil mirror-double into the mortal world – a dangerously charming troublemaker named Etan – and trapped the real Nate behind the glass.
Now Etan is loose, wreaking magical havoc, stealing secrets, and flashing a smile that should come with a hazard label. Nate’s running out of time, and if Jessica can’t break the spell before the deadline, he’ll be stuck in the Mirror Realm forever.
Armed with enchanted lip gloss, her best friend Bianca’s questionable wisdom, and a talking raven with a grudge, Jessica’s ready(ish) to save the day. But between hall passes, high school drama, and resisting the wrong Nate’s infuriatingly perfect grin, she’s discovering that disaster spells are a lot easier to cast than undo.

Description:

The companion to the Oscar-nominated documentary, an unparalleled look inside Israel’s security establishment.

Imagine the following situation: You have just received a tip that six suicide bombers are making their way into the heart of Israel’s major cities, each one to a different city, to set off an explosion in the most crowded centers of population. How far would you go to stop the attack? How would you sleep at night if you failed and one of the six terrorists reached his target and murdered dozens of innocent people? What would you do the next morning to extract your country from this murderous vicious cycle? For six former heads of the Shin Bet (Israel’s internal security service),these were not hypothetical questions, but the realities and tormenting way of life for decades.

In The Gatekeepers, which is based on extensive and lengthy interviews conducted to produce the award-winning film of the same name, six former heads of the Shin Bet speak with unprecedented candor on how they handled the toughest and tensest moments of their lives; on matters of life and death; on the missions they were involved in; on the historic opportunities for a better future that were missed by the leaders under whom they served, and the scars each of them bears until this very day.

The Gatekeepers is a piercing and cruel self-examination of Israel’s security establishment and of a nation that has lived by its sword for so many years but has lost its faith in its ability to lay it down.
