This book presents a comprehensive theory of why human freedom gave way to increasing oppression since the invention of states - and why this trend began to reverse itself more recently, leading to a rapid expansion of universal freedoms and democracy. Drawing on a massive body of evidence, the author tests various explanations of the rise of freedom, providing convincing support of a well-reasoned theory of emancipation. The study demonstrates multiple trends toward human empowerment, which converge to give people control over their lives. Most important among these trends is the spread of 'emancipative values', which emphasize free choice and equal opportunities. The author identifies the desire for emancipation as the origin of the human empowerment trend and shows when and why this desire grows strong; why it is the source of democracy; and how it vitalizes civil society, feeds humanitarian norms, enhances happiness, and helps redirect modern civilization toward sustainable development.

This is the first study to demonstrate the role of cultural change in the global rise of freedoms. In multiple ways, the author illustrates how emerging "emancipative values" intertwine technological and institutional changes into a single trend toward human empowerment. The author interprets his broad and far-reaching findings from societies around the world in a new and coherent framework: the evolutionary theory of emancipation.

In this luminous portrait of wartime Washington, Ernest B. Furgurson–author of the widely acclaimed Chancellorsville 1863, Ashes of Glory, and Not War but Murder--brings to vivid life the personalities and events that animated the Capital during its most tumultuous time. Here among the sharpsters and prostitutes, slaves and statesmen are detective Allan Pinkerton, tracking down Southern sympathizers; poet Walt Whitman, nursing the wounded; and accused Confederate spy Antonia Ford, romancing her captor, Union Major Joseph Willard. Here are generals George McClellan and Ulysses S. Grant, railroad crew boss Andrew Carnegie, and architect Thomas Walter, striving to finish the Capitol dome. And here is Abraham Lincoln, wrangling with officers, pardoning deserters, and inspiring the nation. Freedom Rising is a gripping account of the era that transformed Washington into the world’s most influential city.

Joan Rosen is pregnant with a Cambion, A half demon creature that will tear her apart when it's born and bring untold evil into the world. Fearing the consequences of this she runs away, intending to hide in Avalon, a land created by Myrddin the magician fifteen centuries ago, hidden beyond time to await the second coming of Arthur, a place where her husband is already a prisoner. A place where Satan rules and every scrap of passion, of imagination, of hope and inspiration is stolen from the people, leaving them compliant pets. In an effort to help her distraught daughter, Misha Heath tracks down the mysterious, near-immortal Myrddin, once known as Merlin the Magician, himself a Cambion, in the hope that he will know something that will change Joan's future and bring her home to her family. But Myrddin is not the kindly magician of the stories, he is someone twisted by a life of pain and loneliness who serves only himself. Martina Liciardello longs for the days when the only things she had to worry about were how fat she was and her boring job. Life as Mavet's consort is exhausting but leaving the Angel of Death would be unimaginable. Mavet's jealousy is matched only by his cruelty and Martina has no way out, not even suicide. Everywhere she looks, Martina sees impossible situations and unhappy people, whether their problems are as surreal as hers or more mundane, people still hurt and lives are still ruined. But there is an answer to impossible situations. There is always an answer, and the answer is not found in Myrddin, or in Arthur's Avalon, or in any other clumsy human attempt to change circumstances. The answer, as always, is the King.

Jocko Willink's methods for success were born in the SEAL Teams, where he spent most of his adult life, enlisting after high school and rising through the ranks to become the commander of the most highly decorated special operations unit of the war in Iraq.

Many books offer advice on how to overcome obstacles and reach your goals--but that advice often misses the most critical ingredient: discipline. Without discipline, there will be no real progress. Discipline Equals Freedom covers it all, including strategies and tactics for conquering weakness, procrastination, and fear, and specific physical training presented in workouts for beginner, intermediate, and advanced athletes, and even the best sleep habits and food intake recommended to optimize performance.

By the winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize in Economics, an essential and paradigm-altering framework for understanding economic development--for both rich and poor--in the twenty-first century. Freedom, Sen argues, is both the end and most efficient means of sustaining economic life and the key to securing the general welfare of the world's entire population. Releasing the idea of individual freedom from association with any particular historical, intellectual, political, or religious tradition, Sen clearly demonstrates its current applicability and possibilities. In the new global economy, where, despite unprecedented increases in overall opulence, the contemporary world denies elementary freedoms to vast numbers--perhaps even the majority of people--he concludes, it is still possible to practically and optimistically restain a sense of social accountability. Development as Freedom is essential reading.
