In the summer of 1941, Hitler ruled Europe from the Atlantic to the Black Sea. Britain was struggling to combat his powerful propaganda machine, crowing victory and smearing his enemies as liars and manipulators over his frequent radio speeches, blasted out on loudspeakers and into homes. British claims that Hitler was dangerous had little impact against this wave of disinformation. Except for the broadcasts of someone called Der Chef, a German who questioned Nazi doctrine, and most importantly, a character created by the British propagandist Thomas Sefton Delmer, a unique weapon in the war.

Written and read by the author, Empire of Pain tells the story of the Sackler dynasty, their company Purdue Pharma, its bestselling drug OxyContin, their immensely generous philanthropy and their involvement in the opioid crisis that has created millions of addicts, even as it generated billions of dollars in profit.

A maior parte dos brasileiros não tem a verdadeira dimensão da pobreza e da miséria que existem em nosso território. É sabido que o Brasil é das nações mais desiguais do mundo. Mas uma coisa é ler estatísticas e manchetes de jornais, a outra é adentrar o país e testemunhar tudo isso. Eduardo Moreira percorreu recantos esquecidos e populações à margem, e, assim, viveu uma verdadeira travessia revolucionária em sua vida.

Populist rage, ideological fracture, economic and technological shocks, geopolitical dangers, and an international system studded with catastrophic risk—the early decades of the 21st century may be one of the most revolutionary periods in modern history. But they are not the first. Humans have lived, and thrived, through more than one great realignment. What makes an age a revolutionary one? And how do they end?

A Umbanda é uma das religiões que, com a crescente onda de valorização da cultura nacional e afro, tem ganhado muitos adeptos e, em geral, quem toma contato com ela se impressiona e acaba tendo um receio maior dos trabalhos de esquerda.

In 1949 Mao Zedong hoisted the red flag over Beijing’s Forbidden City. Instead of liberating the country, the communists destroyed the old order and replaced it with a repressive system that would dominate every aspect of Chinese life. In an epic of revolution and violence which draws on newly opened party archives, interviews and memoirs, Frank Dikötter interweaves the stories of millions of ordinary people with the brutal politics of Mao’s court. A gripping account of how people from all walks of life were caught up in a tragedy that sent at least five million civilians to their deaths.

For generations, everything has been getting faster, better, and cheaper. Finally, we reached the point that almost anything you could ever want could be sent to your home within days - even hours - of when you decided you wanted it. America made that happen, but now America has lost interest in keeping it going.

Frantz Fanon's urgent, dynamic critique of the effects of racism on the psyche is a landmark study of the Black experience in a white world. Drawing on his own life and his work as a psychoanalyst to explore how colonialism's subjects internalize its prejudices, eventually emulating the 'white masks' of their oppressors, it established Fanon as a revolutionary anti-colonialist thinker.

Em 1942, os Aliados estavam perdendo a guerra e a Alemanha parecia invencível. A inteligência britânica tinha espiões treinados em todo tipo de serviço, mas percebeu que, para vencer, era necessário tomar uma medida sem precedentes: recrutar agentes do sexo feminino. Trinta e nove mulheres responderam ao chamado, deixando suas vidas para se tornarem sabotadoras na França.

In her new audiobook, Invisible Women, award-winning campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez shows us how, in a world largely built for and by men, we are systematically ignoring half the population. She exposes the gender data gap - a gap in our knowledge that is at the root of perpetual, systemic discrimination against women and that has created a pervasive but invisible bias with a profound effect on women’s lives.

Americans are shocked by ongoing reports chronicling growing chaos in Europe, where massive Muslim migration is wreaking havoc on the continent including horrendous acts of mass terrorism, an epidemic of rape and sexual assault against European women, and large, jihadist-rich enclaves where even police are allegedly hesitant to enter. Yet, few realize that America is heading down the same suicidal path.

A guerra contra o Brasil de que trata este livro não é do tipo convencional: não incendeia cidades nem utiliza bombas e mísseis. Para o consagrado sociólogo Jessé Souza, autor de A elite do atraso, as armas dessa guerra são o racismo, a subserviência da nossa elite econômica, a mentira, o fundamentalismo religioso e o fascismo latente da nossa tradição autoritária. Urdida e testada na sociedade americana, a guerra híbrida de que somos vítimas é uma estratégia baseada na manipulação de informações e na desestabilização de governos populares.

At once an incredible adventure narrative and a penetrating biographical portrait, The River of Doubt is the true story of Theodore Roosevelt's harrowing exploration of one of the most dangerous rivers on earth.

He was a husband, a father, a preacher - and the preeminent leader of a movement that continues to transform America and the world. Now, in a special program commissioned and authorized by his family, here is the life and times of Martin Luther King, Jr. Featuring King's I Have a Dream Speech.

In The War on the West, international best-selling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is a history of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it? It’s become, he explains, perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What’s more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech.

Final Battle exposes the real threat that Democrats pose to freedom. The rise of socialism and critical race theory, coupled with threats to the Electoral College and Senate, an independent judiciary, and the integrity of the electoral system, now threaten to destroy the traditions that bring Americans together—the heart of our democracy.

Through vivid anecdotes and insightful reflections, Roosevelt provides listeners with an intimate glimpse into his experiences, convictions, and the tumultuous events that shaped his era. Written after his presidency, Roosevelt reflects on his upbringing, early life, and political career. He describes his sickly childhood and his intense efforts to strengthen his body through exercise. The book then traces his journey through various roles, including soldier, explorer, conservationist, and statesman—a true story about leadership, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence.

Today’s conservatives know what they’re against. They’re anti-woke, anti-globalist, anti-big government. But what exactly do they stand for? The fact that this is a hard question to answer is a damning indictment of the modern Republican Party which has abjectly failed to articulate an affirmative alternative to the left’s vision. Ramaswamy calls on the conservative movement to articulate exactly what it stands for, or else warns of another illusory “red wave” in 2024.
