With an introduction read by Max Hastings. An exhilarating and uplifting account of the lives of 16 ‘warriors’ from the last three centuries, hand-picked for their bravery or extraordinary military experience by the eminent military historian, author and ex-editor of the Daily Telegraph, Sir Max Hastings. Over the course of 40 years of writing about war, Max Hastings has grown fascinated by outstanding deeds of derring-do on the battlefield (land, sea, or air) - and by their practitioners.

In The Management of Savagery, Max Blumenthal excavates the real story behind America's dealings with the world and shows how the extremist forces that now threaten peace across the globe are the inevitable flowering of America's imperial designs. Washington's secret funding of the mujahedin provoked the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. With guns and money, the United States has ever since sustained the extremists, including Osama Bin Laden, who have become its enemies.

You are possessed. A being outside yourself has taken control of your mind, body, and soul. It commands you to do things against your will, and torments you with feelings of guilt and pain. This being is not a demon, or a ghost, though it might as well be. This being is an ideal. Your ideals, whether thrust upon you by society or adopted out of a sense of duty, your ideals put you in bondage and make your life miserable. They haunt your head, as sure as any spook could do.

What if politics as we know it is about to end? What if humanity soon organizes itself not in hierarchies, but in hive minds? Should we fear the robot apocalypse? Welcome to The Social Singularity. In this decentralization manifesto, futurist Max Borders shows that humanity is already building systems that will “underthrow” great centers of power. With lively prose, Borders takes us on a tour of modern pagan festivals, cities of the future, and radically new ways to organize society. In so doing, he examines trends likely to revolutionize the ways we live and work.

Stephen C. Richards, an ex-convict who served time in nine federal prisons before earning his PhD in criminology, argues the supermax prison era began in 1983 at USP Marion in southern Illinois, where the first "control units" were built by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The Marion Experiment, told from a convict criminology perspective, offers an introduction to long-term solitary confinement and supermax prisons, followed by a series of first-person accounts by prisoners....

Willkommen bei Somebody Cares – dem Podcast, in dem drei Typen versuchen, die Welt zu verstehen. Jede Woche sprechen wir über Politik und Gesellschaft, die kleinen und großen Fragen des Lebens – und immer wieder wird gerätselt: Was treibt Deutschland da eigentlich? Klar, manchmal kommen wir vom Thema ab (okay, meistens), aber wir versprechen, zumindest halbwegs zu wissen, wovon wir reden. Somebody cares – du hoffentlich auch! Es könnte politisch werden. Oder einfach nur chaotisch. Aber hey, Hauptsache unterhaltsam.

The Boeing 737 MAX. A Saga of Innovation, Tragedy, and Corporate Responsibility The Boeing 737 MAX, once heralded as a groundbreaking innovation in commercial aviation, has become synonymous with controversy, tragedy, and corporate scandal.

Max Czolleks legendäre Bücher "Desintegriert Euch!" und "Gegenwartsbewältigung" streuten lustvoll Zweifel an den deutschen Narrativen von Integration bis Leitkultur. Scharf, gewitzt und an jeder Stelle überraschend, schließt Versöhnungstheater diesen Kreis, wenn es nach der aktuellen Erinnerung an die Verbrechen der Vergangenheit fragt. Nach weltweit bewunderten Gesten der deutschen Selbstvergewisserung vom Warschauer Kniefall bis zum Holocaust-Mahnmal hat sich in letzter Zeit einiges verändert.

Als Max Schrems von Facebook alle über ihn vorliegenden Daten verlangte, bekam er 1.200 A4-Seiten, darauf auch viele von ihm gelöschte Informationen. Mit seinem daraufhin angestrengten Verfahren gegen Facebook wurde er zum international beachteten David, der gegen die Goliaths des Internets antritt. Er erklärt in Kämpf um deine Daten den Datenwahnsinn so einfach wie Jamie Oliver das Kochen: Wie Konzerne ihre Kunden durchleuchten, auch ohne dass diese ihre Daten offenlegen. Wie aus harmlosen Daten neue, hoch persönliche Informationen oder sogar unsere zukünftigen Gedanken hochgerechnet werden.

Max Czollek's De-Integrate! is a polemical, often humorous examination of Jewish life in contemporary Germany that speaks to the position of minorities the world over. Rooted in sociological theory, the book offers an engaging and approachable critique of Germany's much-lauded traditions of memory culture and Vergangenheitsbewältigung—its "successful" negotiation of its Nazi past.
