Americans are losing touch with reality. On virtually every issue, from climate change to immigration, tens of millions of Americans have opinions and beliefs wildly at odds with fact, rendering them unable to think sensibly about politics. In How America Lost Its Mind, Thomas E. Patterson explains the rise of a world of “alternative facts” and the slow motion cultural and political calamity unfolding around us.

Bastardmoderne ist keine theoretische Abhandlung, sondern wortgewaltige Polemik. Jan A. Karon enthüllt uns den Westen als einen „Bastard", als eine ungewollte Kreuzung aus postmodernem Relativismus, entfesselten Kapitalströmen, zivilreligiöser Hölle und migrationsextremistischen Auswüchsen. Die übergeordnete Frage ist: Wie wurden wir das, was wir nie sein wollten?

Alan Dershowitz has been called “one of the most prominent and consistent defenders of civil liberties in America” by Politico. Yet he has come under partisan fire for applying those same principles to Donald Trump during the course of his many appearances in national media outlets as an expert resource on civil and constitutional law. The Case Against Impeaching Trump seeks to reorient the debate over impeachment to the same standard that Dershowitz has continued to uphold for decades: the law of the United States of America, as established by the Constitution.

If anyone doubted the potential political power of the Millennial generation, Bernie Sanders' campaign put it in the spotlight. Are We Screwed? makes clear that the ardour for change defines this generation, especially when it comes to climate change, and they are willing to consider options that their elders might think naïve and impractical....
