Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber

By: Mike Isaac

Now a SHOWTIME® original series starring Emmy winners Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Kyle Chandler and Academy Award nominee Uma Thurman. Now streaming – Only on SHOWTIME. Named one of the best books of the year by NPR, Fortune, Bloomberg, Sunday Times A New York Times Book Review Editor’s Choice “If you want to understand modern-day Silicon Valley, you need to read this book.” —John Carreyrou, New York Times best-selling author of Bad Blood Hailed as the definitive book on Uber and Silicon Valley, Super Pumped is an epic story of ambition and deception, obscene wealth, and bad behavior that explores how blistering technological and financial innovation culminated in one of the most catastrophic twelve-month periods in American corporate history. Backed by billions in venture capital dollars and led by a brash and ambitious founder, Uber promised to revolutionize the way we move people and goods through the world. What followed would become a corporate cautionary tale about the perils of startup culture and a vivid example of how blind worship of startup founders can go wildly wrong.

Battle for the Soul

Inside the Democrats' Campaigns to Defeat Trump

By: Edward-Isaac Dovere

An award-winning political journalist for The Atlantic tells the inside story of how the embattled Democratic Party, seeking a direction for its future during the Trump years, successfully regained the White House. The 2020 presidential campaign was a defining moment for America. As Donald Trump and his nativist populism cowed the Republican Party into submission, many Democrats—haunted by Hillary Clinton’s shocking loss in 2016 and the resulting four-year-long identity crisis—were convinced that he would be unbeatable. Their party and the country, it seemed, might never recover. How, then, did Democrats manage to win the presidency, especially after the longest primary race with the biggest field ever? How did they keep themselves united through an internal struggle between newly empowered progressives and establishment forces—playing out against a pandemic, an economic crisis, and a new racial reckoning? Edward-Isaac Dovere’s Battle for the Soul is the searing, fly-on-the-wall account of the Democrats’ journey through recalibration and rebirth. Dovere traces this process: from the early days in the wilderness of the post-Obama era to the jockeying of potential candidates; from the backroom battles and exhausting campaigns to the unlikely triumph of the man few expected to win; and on through the inauguration and the insurrection at the Capitol. Dovere draws on years of on-the-ground reporting and contemporaneous conversations with the key players—whether with Pete Buttigieg in his hotel suite in Des Moines an hour before he won the Iowa caucuses or with Joe Biden in his first-ever interview in the Oval Office—as well as with aides, advisors, and voters. Offering unparalleled access and an insider’s command of the campaign, Battle for the Soul takes a compelling look at the policies, politics, and people, as well as the often absurd process of running for president. This fresh and timely story brings you on the trail, into the private rooms, and along to eavesdrop on critical conversations. You will never see campaigns or this turning point in our history the same way again.

An Invitation to Environmental Sociology

By: Michael Mayerfeld Bell,Loka L. Ashwood,Isaac Sohn Leslie,Laura Hanson Schlachter

If there were ever a time for environmental sociology, it is now. As COVID-19 is spreading across our communities, our countries, our world, we have all become too familiar with maintaining that awful term of "social distance." Yet there can be no true distance from that which is always with us and within us: our social ecology An Invitation to Environmental Sociology invites students to delve into this rapidly changing field. Written in a lively, engaging style, the authors cover a broad range of topics in environmental sociology with a personal passion rarely seen in sociology texts. The book′s unique organization explores three different kinds of questions about interactions between humans and the natural world: the material, the ideal, and the practical. The Sixth Edition of this bestseller comprises 12 chapters instead of 13, making it easier to fit into the normal rhythm of a course. But the result is also an edition that is up-to-date and enriched with much newer material, while continuing to use an inviting tone that the title promises. Included with this title: The password-protected Instructor Resource Site (formally known as SAGE Edge) offers access to all text-specific resources, including a test bank and editable, chapter-specific PowerPoint® slides.

The Politics of Race

Canada, the United States, and Australia

By: Jill Vickers,Annette Isaac

The Politics of Race is an excellent resource for students and general readers seeking to learn about race policies and legislation. Arguing that 'states make race,' it provides a unique comparison of the development and construction of race in three white settler societies — Canada, the United States, and Australia. This timely new edition focuses on the politics of race after 9/11 and Barack Obama's election as president of the United States. Jill Vickers and Annette Isaac explore how state-sanctioned race discrimination has intensified in the wake of heightened security. It also explains the new race formation of Islamophobia in all three countries, and the shifts in how Hispanics and Asian Americans are being treated in the United States. As race and politics become increasingly intertwined in both academic and popular discourse, The Politics of Race aids readers in evaluating different approaches for promoting racial justice and transforming states.

Never Ending

By: Isaac M. Flores

Suddenly, after more than half a century of antagonism, the great American democracy of the United States and the communist dictatorship of the Castro brothers is on its way to a friendlier relationship. But many question whether they can and whether they should. This is an up-to-date inside look at what's going on now and, significantly, what has gone before. An engrossing tale of two different societies taking another giant leap into their long, often-perilous, history. It shows in compelling detail how Cubans have fared under a regime imposed with an iron fist by Fidel Castro since the 1960s. It graphically depicts Cuban prisons and the tortures of thousands of inmates, the frantic efforts of many of its people to seek exile or death at sea, the many exile incursions into their homeland and the frequent attempts at assassination of their "Maximum Leader.

Volunteers in the Desert

By: Sergio Ralon,Isaac Ben-Halom

A summer night, June 12th, 2014, three Israeli adolescents returning home after attending their religious studies are kidnapped by Arab Palestinian terrorists on a bus stop in an area historically known as Judea and Samaria, crib to the Hebraic Culture. The event shook a country tired of the downward spiral of violence and deceit. Their parents’ anguish, the Israeli society’s worries and adding the international Jewish community a whole state mobilized their entire army with the only objective to find them alive; they were a sample of the suffering of our nation in this part of the world. That night and the next two months represented a piece of the tragedy of our history: the peace that is so wished for that it is only seen from afar even though of all the effort that is put in to achieve it. The war in Gaza that trailed this event demonstrated another face of the enemies of peace, the Gaza Extremist who does not care to sacrifice his own nation and used them as human shields while their highest level of palestinian government maintains their comfort and status quo. Taking advantage of the innocence of multiple international relief agencies, HAMAS has successfully used these platforms to attack Israel from every vantage point whether it is militarily, diplomatic and/or culturally sphere. The tenacity of the Israeli Society and the international Jewish community also demonstrated that good will prevail over evil, the justice against the transgressor and that after 2000 years of not having a country we come back to stay there forever.

Arendt, Camus, and Modern Rebellion

By: Jeffrey C. Isaac

Arendt, Camus, and Modern Rebellion

By: Jeffrey C. Isaac

The works of Hannah Arendt and Albert Camus--two of the most compelling political thinkers of the "resistance generation" that lived through World War II--can still provide penetrating insights for contemporary political reflection. Jeffrey C. Isaac offers new interpretations of these writers, viewing both as engaged intellectuals who grappled with the possibilities of political radicalism in a world in which liberalism and Marxism had revealed their inadequacy by being complicit in the rise of totalitarianism. According to Isaac, self-styled postmodern writers who proclaim the death of grandiose ideologies often fail to recognize that such thinkers as Camus and Arendt had already noted this. But unlike many postmodernists, these two sought to preserve what was worthy in modern humanism--the idea of a common human condition and a commitment to human rights and the dignity of individuals. Isaac shows that both writers advanced the idea of a democratic civil society made up of self-limiting groups. Although they criticized the typical institutions of mass democratic politics, they endorsed alternative forms of local and international organization that defy the principle of state sovereignty. Isaac also shows how Arendt's writings on the Middle East, and Camus's on Algeria, urged the creation of such institutions. The vision of a "rebellious politics" that Arendt and Camus shared is of great relevance to current debates in democratic theory and to the transformations taking place in Europe and the states of the former Soviet Union.
