"Bestselling author and popular Fox News contributor Joe Concha returns with the inside story of Donald Trump's 2024 campaign"--

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!VIBE SHIFT! National Bestselling author Joe Concha hip checks the mainstream media to deliver the juicy truth about this important moment in history. Lawfare. Assassination attempts. Kamala’s coronation. Nearly $3 billion in campaign cash. Liberals were so scared of Trump that&nbsp;they threw everything they had at him. They're even more scared now.&nbsp;In The Greatest Comeback Ever, Concha roasts the wildest anti-Trump flops from the prediction race. Walz and Biden swore they were the happy-go-lucky crew, but Trump was the one dancing his way to the YMCA while Kamala screeched about the end of days. She stumbled over unburdening her past while Trump nailed it on groceries and borders—stuff folks actually care about. Tons of books will miss the mark because they're written by clueless hacks who didn’t see Trump coming, but Concha’s got the real scoop:<ul><li>Who is responsible for the Democrats’ utter collapse</li><li>How the Republicans took the winning side on every key issue</li><li>Why the media stepped on every rake</li><li>How Trump sailed into office ready for the most consequential second term ever</li></ul>It’s no wonder the American people chose to reelect him. Everyone should have seen it coming.&nbsp;The Greatest Comeback Ever&nbsp;illustrates how Trump pulled off the art of the comeback—in the biggest, most beautiful, most terrific campaign of the century.

A fascinating biography of the Marquis de Sade's wife Renée-Pélagie de Montreuil and a portrait of their surprisingly happy decades-long marriage. FOR FANS OF WOMEN'S HISTORY: A witty and compassionate look at the woman behind one of literature's most scandalous figures. The Marquis de Sade, infamous for his obscene writing and his cruelty to women, nonetheless lived a life dominated by them - his charismatic mother, iron-willed mother-in-law, and his wife. A wife who, despite her husband's peccadilloes, and although their marriage was arranged in order for their families to combine financial and social capital, loved him devotedly for thirty years, through betrayal, imprisonment, and national turmoil. This biography reveals how Renée-Pélagie de Montreuil, Marquise de Sade, endured the chaos caused by her frenetically dissolute husband with grace, and how she carved out her own independence in an era when women were entitled to little of their own. She bore the Marquis three children, loved him, put up with his wild behavior, edited his manuscripts for him, tried to help him escape prison by means legal and illegal, and acted throughout the decades of their marriage as his only reliable friend. Their complex relationship, set against the last years of the Ancien Régime in France, the Revolution and its aftermath, are brought to life with humor and compassion by Margaret Crosland, also the translator of Sade's Gothic Tales. She shows how the Sade marriage symbolized the decay of the old aristocracy and conveys the struggle of one individual to establish her personal identity at a time when women in France had virtually no rights of their own.

Sade's Wife

The Achilles Trap masterfully untangles the people, ploys of power and geopolitics that led to America's disastrous war with Iraq and, for the first time, details America's fundamental miscalculations during its ruinous, decades-long relationship with Saddam Hussein. Beginning with Saddam's rise to power in 1979 and the birth of Iraq's secret nuclear weapons programme, Steve Coll traces Saddam's motives through understanding his inner circle. He brings to life the diplomats, scientists, family members and generals who had no choice but to defer to their leader - a leader directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, as well as the torture or imprisonment of many more. This was a man whose reasoning was impossible to reduce to a simple explanation, and the CIA and successive presidential administrations failed to grasp critical nuances in his paranoia, resentments and inconsistencies - even when the stakes were incredibly high. Using unpublished and underreported sources, interviews with surviving participants, and Saddam's own transcripts and audio files, The Achilles Trap is a remarkable picture of a dictator who was convinced the world was out to get him and acted accordingly. A work of great historical significance, it is the definitive account of how corruptions of power, lies of diplomacy and vanity - on both sides - led to avoidable errors of statecraft: ones that would enact immeasurable human suffering and forever change our political landscape.

A clear-eyed look at thinking straight in a world crowded with noise, bias, and misinformation."Fake news." "Alternative facts." "Post-truth." Misinformation is everywhere, sparking public confusion and polarization. In Truth, best-selling author Michael Shermer cuts through the noise to argue that not only does truth still matter--but also that it's essential to our individual and collective flourishing. This sharp-sighted and accessible book provides a framework for thinking more clearly in an age clouded by doubt and distortion.Shermer, the author of Conspiracy: Why the Rational Believe the Irrational, explores why truth deserves our attention, how falsehoods take hold in the public's imagination, and how we can resist manipulation through reason, evidence, and open inquiry. This book introduces powerful tools for evaluating claims, including the concepts of causality, correlation, and Bayesian reasoning. Beyond these abstract ideas, he also examines how we determine truth in specific domains--such as science, history, and religion--and brings clarity to hot-button topics like UFOs, conspiracy theories, miracles, mystical experiences, consciousness, morality, God, and even existence. With his trademark wit and intellectual rigor, Shermer reveals how even the most intelligent among us fall prey to such pitfalls as "myside bias" and motivated reasoning and how a commitment to universal realism can help push back against tribalism and misinformation.Truth offers a timely antidote to cynicism and confusion. It emphasizes critical thinking and urges readers to rebuild the intellectual foundations of a functioning democracy by embracing the pursuit of truth, however complex or inconvenient it may be.

From the popular and award-winning staff writer for The Atlantic, an eye-opening look at how the current media landscape has incentivized us to see our fellow citizens as characters in an ongoing entertainment—and how we can fight back against this phenomenon.Whether it’s our reality-television-star President or our expertly curated Instagram feeds, the line between fact and fiction—between what’s real and what’s fabricated for entertainment—has never been more blurred. Screen People explores what happens when we cede our reality to spectacle. Megan Garber explains how today’s internet-inflected culture conditions us to see one another not as people but as characters in an ongoing show, and how some of our most chronic and harmful social conditions—loneliness, depression, mistrust, misinformation, cynicism—stem from our demand for diversion.In ten chapters, each themed around an element of entertainment—from “The Producers,” who edit our reality, to “The Extras,” the strangers we turn into objects of our amusement, to “the Haters,” the worshipful Qanon-types who expect the prophecies of their anonymous leader to play out on live television—Garber argues that this comedy of our daily lives is quickly becoming tragedy. And we can’t understand our politics without first understanding our culture.Like The Anxious Generation but about our media diet, Screen People shows why Megan Garber is one of the most respected and widely-read journalists of our day. It is an urgent, page-turning, and dazzling look at how we entertained ourselves into our current predicament, and how we might find our way out of the maze of misinformation and chaos.
