Story
Free speech is indispensable on college campuses: allowing varied views and frank exchanges of opinion is a core component of the educational enterprise. But free speech does not mean a free-for-all. The First Amendment prohibits "abridging the freedom of speech," yet laws against perjury or bribery, for example, are still constitutional. In the same way, valuing freedom of speech does not stop a university from regulating speech when doing so is necessary for its educational mission. So where is the dividing line? How can we distinguish reasonable restrictions from impermissible infringement?

A lot has been written about the time contractor Raymond Davis spent in a Pakistani jail in 2011. Unfortunately, much of it is misleading—or downright false—information. Now, the man at the center of the controversy tells his side of the story for the very first time. In The Contractor: How I Landed in a Pakistani Prison and Ignited a Diplomatic Crisis, Davis offers an up-close and personal look at the 2011 incident in Lahore, Pakistan, that led to his imprisonment and the events that took place as diplomats on both sides of the bargaining table scrambled to get him out.

Story
Omo Moses deftly interweaves his own life story with excerpts from both his great-grandfather's sermons and the writings of his father, the civil rights activist Bob Moses. The result is a powerful chorus of voices that spans 3 generations of an African American family, all shining a light on the Black experience, all calling fiercely for racial justice. This book is at once a coming-of-age story, a multigenerational family memoir, an epic father-son road trip, a searing account of the Black male experience, and a work that powerfully revives Rev. Moses’s demand for liberation.

La libertad es la idea que subyace a las sociedades occidentales, pero de un tiempo a esta parte su significado se ha desplazado: la libertad es la libertad de las empresas para contaminar, la de las grandes tecnológicas para escapar de cualquier control y la de los políticos para mentir y fomentar la crispación. ¿Cómo hemos llegado hasta aquí? ¿De qué libertad estamos hablando? ¿Y de qué libertad deberíamos hablar?

Story
For forty years, hundreds of African American men in Tuskegee, Alabama, believed they were receiving medical care from trusted doctors. Instead, they were subjects of one of the most infamous and morally reprehensible experiments in American history. Under the guise of "free medical treatment," these men were deliberately left untreated for syphilis, even as a cure became widely available. Their suffering, exploited in the name of science, shattered lives and left an indelible scar on American medicine.

Story
More than a century of civil rights activism reached a mountaintop with the arrival of a Black man in the Oval Office. But hopes for a unified, post-racial America were deflated when Barack Obama’s presidency met with furious opposition. A white right-wing backlash was brewing, and a volcanic new movement—a second civil rights movement—began to erupt. In New Prize for These Eyes, award-winning author Juan Williams shines a light on this historic, new movement. Who are its heroes? Where is it headed? What fires, furies, and frustrations distinguish it from its predecessor?

Begin your exploration into the new wave of terrorism. Experience the book that challenges conventional wisdom on contemporary terrorism. Beyond the religious wave...terrorism appears to have moved into new, uncharted waters...and we are now witnessing a new wave of terrorism. Several terrorist groups continue to exist even though the conflict they formed to participate in is (essentially) over. Individuals within the groups pursue personal gain (utilizing organized crime) through the cachet and fear of their group’s histories.
