While COVID-19 is reshaping our lives, this must-read book for 2021 provides some of the answers to our most pressing global challenges. Unless the world is basically peaceful, we will never get the trust, cooperation and inclusiveness to solve these issues, yet what creates peace is poorly understood. Working on an aid program in one of the most violent places in the world, North East Kivu in the DR Congo, philanthropist and business leader Steve Killelea asked himself, ‘What are the most peaceful nations?’ Unable to find an answer, he created the world’s leading measure of peace, the Global Peace Index, which receives over 16 billion media impressions annually and has become the definitive go to index for heads of state. Steve Killelea then went on to establish world-renowned think tank, the Institute for Economics and Peace. Today its work is used by organisations such as the World Bank, United Nations and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and taught in thousands of university courses around the world. Peace in the Age of Chaos tells of Steve’s personal journey to measure and understand peace. It explores the practical application of his work, which is gathering momentum at a rapid pace. In this time when we are faced with environmental, social and economic challenges, this book shows us a way forward where Positive Peace, described as creating the optimal environment for human potential to flourish, can lead to a paradigm shift in the ways societies can be managed, making them more resilient and better capable of adapting to their changing environments.

The major challenges facing humanity are global in nature, including climate change, pandemics, ever decreasing biodiversity, lack of usable fresh water and food security - to name a few. Without a world that is basically peaceful, we will never achieve the level of trust, cooperation and inclusiveness needed to solve these issues, yet what creates peace is poorly understood. In Peace in the Age of Chaos, Steve Killelea, founder of both the Global Peace Index and the world-renowned think tank the Institute for Economics and Peace, tells his personal journey to measure and understand peace. It explores the practical application of Steve's work, which is gathering momentum at a rapid pace, and offers thought-provoking discussion on contemporary issues, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and its likely impact on the world, particularly on peace. In this time when we are faced with environmental, social and economic challenges, this book shows us a way forward where Positive Peace, described as the optimal environment for human potential to flourish, can lead to a paradigm shift in the way societies can be managed, thereby transcending and reinvigorating western democracies.

Politicians of every stripe frequently invoke the Marshall Plan in support of programs aimed at using American wealth to extend the nation's power and influence, solve intractable third-world economic problems, and combat world hunger and disease. Do any of these impassioned advocates understand why the Marshall Plan succeeded where so many subsequent aid plans have not? Historian Nicolaus Mills explores the Marshall Plan in all its dimensions to provide valuable lessons from the past about what America can and cannot do as a superpower.

A tester’s mind is never at rest. It is constantly searching, over populated with information, and continually discovering changes to context. A tester at work is interacting with plenty of people who don’t understand testing, pretend to understand or have conflicting ideas of testing. A combination of all this creates restlessness in a tester’s mind. A restless mind ends up with fragmented learning and chaos. This impacts the quality of life itself. Is this book for you?

Honorable Mention, 2022 Sharon Harris Book Award presented by the University of Connecticut Humanities Institute Focusing on four key Chinese intellectuals of the first half of the twentieth century, Abolishing Boundaries offers new perspectives on modern Chinese political thought. These four intellectuals—Kang Youwei, Cai Yuanpei, Chen Duxiu, and Hu Shi—were deeply familiar with the Confucian and Buddhist classical texts, while also interested in the West's utopian literature of the late nineteenth century as well as Kant and the neo-Kantians, Marxists, and John Dewey and new liberalism, respectively. Although none of these four intellectuals can simply be labeled utopian thinkers, this book highlights how their thinking was intertwined with utopian ideals to produce theories of secular transcendence, liberalism, and communism, and how, in explicit and implicit ways, their ideas required some utopian impulse in order to escape the boundaries they identified as imprisoning the Chinese people and all humanity. To abolish these boundaries was to imagine alternatives to the unbearable present. This was not a matter of armchair philosophizing but of thinking through new ways to commit to action. These men did not hold a totalistic picture of some perfect society, but in distinctly different ways they all displayed a utopian impulse that fueled radical visions of change. Their work reveals much about the underlying forces shaping modern thought in China—and the world. Reacting to China's problems, they sought a better future for all humanity.
