Free Download Alexandra Stark, Emily Durante (Narrator), "The Yemen Model: Why U.S. Policy Has Failed in the Middle East"
English | ASIN: B0CZSD29SF | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~08:44:00 | 240 MB
A close look at failed US policies in the Middle East, offering a fresh perspective on how best to reorient goals in the region.
In this book, Alexandra Stark argues that the US approach to Yemen offers insights into the failures of American foreign policy throughout the Middle East. Stark makes the case that despite often being drawn into conflicts within Yemen, the United States has not achieved its policy goals because it has narrowly focused on counterterrorism and regional geopolitical competition rather than on the well-being of Yemenis themselves.
She offers recommendations designed to reorient US policy in the Middle East in pursuit of US national security interests, and to support the people of these countries in their efforts to make their own communities safe, secure, and prosperous.

Free Download The Wolves of K Street: The Secret History of How Big Money Took Over Big Government (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CLHHKWXK | 2024 | 19 hours and 54 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 546 MB
Author: Brody Mullins, Luke Mullins
Narrator: Jacques Roy
Two veteran investigative journalists trace the rise of the modern lobbying industry through the three dynasties-one Republican, two Democratic-that have enabled corporate interests to infiltrate American politics and undermine our democracy. On K Street, a few blocks from the White House, you'll find the offices of the most powerful men in Washington. In the 1970s, the city's center of gravity began to shift away from elected officials in big marble buildings to a handful of savvy, handsomely paid operators who didn't answer to any fixed constituency. A dazzling and infuriating portrait of fifty years of corporate influence in Washington, The Wolves of K Street is a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction-irresistibly dramatic, spectacularly timely, explosive in its revelations, and absolutely impossible to put down.

Free Download The White Bonus: Five Families and the Cash Value of Racism in America (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CY7GZ6C5 | 2024 | 11 hours and 50 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 342 MB
Author: Tracie McMillan
Narrator: Tavia Gilbert
In The White Bonus, McMillan asks a provocative question about racism in America: When people of color are denied so much, what are white people given? And how much is it worth-not in amorphous privilege, but in dollars and cents? McMillan begins with her family, tracking their modest wealth to its roots: American policy that helped whites first. Simultaneously, she details the complexities of their advantage, exploring her mother's death in a nursing home, at forty-four, on Medicaid; her family's implosion; and a small inheritance from a grandfather. In the process, McMillan puts a cash value to whiteness in her life and assesses its worth. She expands her investigation to four other white subjects of different generations across the United States. McMillan shows how, and to what degree, racial privilege begets material advantage across class, time, and place. McMillan brings groundbreaking insight on the white working class. And for fans of Tara Westover's Educated and Kiese Laymon's Heavy, McMillan reckons with the connection between the abuse we endure at home and the abuse America allows.

An engaging exploration of the wondrous social webs that permeate life in animal societies around the world. It's all about who you know. Whether vampire bats sharing blood meals for survival, field crickets remembering champion fighters, macaque monkeys forming grooming pacts after a deadly hurricane, or great tit birds learning the best way to steal milk-it pays to be well connected. In this tour of the animal kingdom, evolutionary biologist Lee Alan Dugatkin reveals a new field of study, uncovering social networks that existed long before the dawn of human social media. He accessibly describes the latest findings from animal behavior, evolution, computer science, psychology, anthropology, genetics, and neurobiology, and incorporates interviews and insights from researchers he finds swimming with manta rays, avoiding pigeon poop, and stopping monkeys from stealing iPads. With Dugatkin as our guide, we investigate social networks in giraffes, elephants, kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, whales, bats, and more. From animal networks in Australia and Asia to Africa, Europe, and the Americas, The Well-Connected Animal is an eye-opening expose of wild friends, enemies, and everything in between.
