What if the greatest threat to America isn't a missile but a strategy?

Written by a team of real researchers and strategic advisors, this 367-page book offers a comprehensive, human-curated account of China's rise and what it means for America's future.
 
With 23 insightful chapters and nearly 500 citations, including congressional reports, this book offers a sweeping, well-researched account of China-U.S. relations, connecting pivotal historical moments to today's most pressing challenges. China's rise isn't accidental-it's a calculated, long-term plan to shift global power while America bears the cost.
 
In this urgent exposé, eye-opening book, the authors reveal how the Chinese Communist Party is using trade policy, tech theft, and geopolitical strategy to undermine U.S. leadership, fuel a semiconductor war, and tilt the global economy in its favor. Whether you're worried about where your medicines are made, why your industry is shrinking, or what China's next move might be, this book delivers a clear, no-spin account of the mounting crisis between the world's two superpowers.

Key Topics Explored in China's Secret Strategy:China's economic history from the Qing dynasty to the present
US-China relations and the digital Cold War
Economic warfare and national security strategy
The global chip war and China's semiconductor ambitions
Belt and Road Initiative's hidden geopolitical goals
Trade war consequences for U.S. workers and industries
Human rights and global reactions
Food and drug safety risks from U.S.-China trade



Why This Book Matters:
Packed with investigative insights and clear analysis, China's Secret Strategy goes beyond headlines to expose the long-game tactics Beijing uses to gain influence across the globe-often at&amp;

China's Secret Strategy

Capitalism has resulted in stupendous growth and prosperity in the Western world, underlining its importance as an engine for creation and innovation. Communism arose to counter capitalism's ills as a method of wealth distribution, as manifested through the increasing gap between the rich and poor even in the most prosperous nations. Yet no country is either truly capitalist or communist, and the simplistic polarization of the world into two camps ignores the vital importance of systems that promote both innovation and equitable distribution. This book offers an insightful discussion on the ills that capitalism and communism have meant to address, and the pitfalls of the two approaches, most importantly with regards to the misconceptions of "profit," the misfit child of economics and accounting. Analysis is also extended to consider behavioral theories from a needs perspective, including marginal theory and behavior based on fear. Finally, the concept of the new, "middle way" of entrepreneurism is advocated, in which the voices of all stakeholders (including the environment and the earth itself) are considered in any endeavor, thereby addressing the iniquities in distribution, while emphasizing the creative and innovative needs of all individuals.

Residual: A Sub-distributive System For The Market Economy

This book presents a critical and philosophical analysis of Islamic law (Sharia), focusing on its legal structure. The work argues that Islamic jurisprudence should be understood as a human interpretive endeavour, shaped by its historical and social contexts rather than as a fixed divine code. 
The book is organised into two chapters and a conclusion:Chapter One presents the foundational perspectives on Islamic law, examining both traditional and rational approaches and clarifies their practical implications.
Chapter Two offers a critical reassessment of the traditional concept of Islamic law, arguing that it no longer adequately addresses the complexities and challenges of the modern world.
The conclusion synthesises the key findings and proposes a new interpretive framework for understanding and applying Islamic law in today's context.

For the first time, THE BUSINESS INVESTOR explains in practical terms how to apply Warren Buffett's investment hurdle rate, using Buffett's own words as the foundation.

The book lays out the Warren Buffett path to financial freedom in a groundbreaking, step-by-step guide that takes you from mindset to methodology and is designed for investors who want to think and act like long-term business owners. Building on Benjamin Graham's original foundation in The Intelligent Investor, the book expands it with Warren Buffett's principles of owning great businesses-run by excellent management-and investing only when the odds are clearly in your favor. The focus is on achieving attractive, long-term returns based on a company's underlying earnings.

The book also introduces a powerful new tool that enables investors to analyze and optimize their own investment profile and circle of competence. This tool was developed by Peter Gustafson through his lectures in Omaha, Nebraska, at the executive management seminar The Genius of Warren Buffett.

How Leaders Turn GenAI into Exponential Results

Agentic Advantage

Our economic system has changed, and younger generations are being locked out of the opportunities our parents once had. Generation Fcked* exposes how the system broke, why the old rules no longer work, and what Millennials and Gen Z can do to reclaim their financial futures. Cancel your subscriptions. Make coffee at home. Go to college. Don’t rent. Buy a house to build equity. That advice was built for a different economy. Today, those choices come with far less certainty. With rising inflation, unaffordable housing, stagnant wages, and crushing student debt, the traditional ‘rules of success’ for many working- and middle-class young adults no longer lead to the outcomes once promised. This leaves younger generations searching for strategies that actually work in today’s world. Drawing on Freddie Smith’s personal journey and data-driven insights, Generation Fcked* explores the uncomfortable reality of how the American Dream—homeownership, family, and a secure retirement—has become increasingly difficult for people under forty-five. With a frank, solutions-oriented approach, this modern guide to our financially f*cked reality will help you: <ul> <li>Understand how the economy became so unequal and which institutions profit as the cost of living rises</li> <li>Talk about the generational wealth divide with older generations in ways that encourage empathy, understanding, and productive conversation</li> <li>Decide whether renting or homeownership makes sense for your life, and take meaningful steps toward clearing debt, investing, and saving</li> <li>Build a retirement plan without relying on Social Security or sacrificing your work–life balance</li> <li>Stay informed, advocate for change, and redefine success on realistic, modern terms</li> </ul> The current system isn’t sustainable. By pairing big-picture clarity with actionable, ground-level guidance, Generation Fcked* offers a path toward a more stable, fair, and achievable future, serving as a guide for generations navigating a radically different economy.

How Millennials and Gen Z Were Robbed of the American Dream and How We Can Fix Our Futures

Generation F*cked

This short book is intended to be an easy to read reference to a person that is just learning about artificial intelligence and AI Agents It is definitely not for people that know about the subject. The book is not perfect, because who knows where to stop and start in this complicated arena.
There are many people who believe that intelligence is a subject that is related to human being and not to machines. Calling it artificial is not enough. At the Dartmouth conference in 1956, Simon and Newell suggested "Complex Information Processing." Perhaps, that could have been a better name for a new specialist discipline.
There are many books already published on artificial intelligence, and for the most part, they are very good. My guess is that there are about 500 of them, and there is not a bad one in the bunch. The really good books, for the specialist, are hard to read for people not in the field of artificial intelligence. What about the poor joe that just wants to find out what going on and wants to keep his or her job. What about the executive that just wants to make sure his charge is heading in the right direction. What about the person that wants to buy a gift for someone that might want to know about artificial intelligence but is afraid to ask. This book is for you.
This was a difficult book to write because we are at a difficult time in its development. Many thanks to Janice, Kathryn, Karen, and grand kids Sara, Daniel, Leah, Matt, Katie, and Tom for their assistance and kindness.

Agentic Artificial Intelligence with Applications

The go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming accent and linguistic bias in the workplace. The way you speak can determine everything from whether you get hired or promoted, to whether people listen to you in meetings. It can affect the strength of your business relationships and reputation, but also whether people think they can trust you. We hear accents loud and clear, yet often they are quietly derailing our efforts to create inclusive work environments where every voice is heard. Linguistic discrimination is still unrecognized in the great majority of Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DEI) circles, yet it underpins every type of discrimination in the workplace from race and age to gender, neurodiversity and even sexuality. It is the hidden bias that is derailing even the best DEI efforts. Accent Matters is the go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming linguistic bias in the workplace. Through fascinating stories and examples of accent bias from all over the world, you'll find out how you've been conditioned to prefer certain accents over others, and how those preferences interfere with the way you listen to and interact with those around you. For those who have accents, but especially for those who think they don't, this book will be an eye-opening journey into a fundamental bias that affects every aspect of our lives, both professionally and personally.
