There is no shortage of opinions on the legacy that George W. Bush
will leave as 43rd President of the United States. Recognizing that
Bush the Younger has been variously described as dimwitted,
opportunistic, innovative, and bold, it would be presumptuous to
draw any hard and fast conclusions about how history will view him.
Nevertheless, it is well within academia's ability to begin to make
preliminary judgments by weighing the evidence we do have and
testing assumptions.
In the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks and the initially
successful military campaign in Afghanistan, Bush and his
administration enjoyed nearly unprecedented popularity. But after
failures in Iraq and in the federal government's response to
Hurricane Katrina, Bush's approval ratings plummeted. Guided by a
new framework, "Judging Bush" boldly takes steps to evaluate the
highs and lows of the Bush legacy according to four types of
competence: strategic, political, tactical, and moral. It offers a
first look at the man, his domestic and foreign policies, and the
executive office's relationship to the legislative and judicial
branches from a distinguished and ideologically diverse set of
award-winning political scientists and White House veterans. Topics
include Bush's decision-making style, the management of the
executive branch, the role and influence of Dick Cheney, elections
and party realignment, the Bush economy, Hurricane Katrina, No
Child Left Behind, and competing treatments of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan.

No doubt the 21st century will continue to surprise us, but the
battle for the soul of humanity appears to be quickening. Do we
have what it takes to save ourselves from ourselves? The internet
has fundamentally changed our experience of shared life, for good
and bad. The spiritual and ecological exhaustion of modernity is
watched and discussed in a public realm mostly controlled by
private interests, where our attention is easily hijacked and
vulnerable to manipulation. There is joy and hope in life as
always, but our species faces a capricious future. This anthology
is an attempt to perceive our contexts and opportunities more
clearly with an exploration of the metamodern sensibility: a
structure of feeling, cultural ethos, epistemic orientation and
imaginative outlook that is coalescing into an important body of
theory and practice. Leading metamodern writers, including Zachary
Stein, Bonnitta Roy, Lene Rachel Andersen, Hanzi Freinacht, Minna
Salami and John Vervaeke, reflect upon the conjunction of
premodern, modern and postmodern influences on the present to help
contend with our plight in the 2020s and beyond. Fourteen chapters
traverse a range of disciplines and domains to help the reader move
beyond critique into vision and method. The aim is to create and
inspire viable and desirable futures in this time between worlds,
where one pattern of collective life is dying and another needs our
help to be born.

Moonlight is a book about over coming a broken relationship. It's
how a person feels when they lose the person they love most and how
they cope with such loss. I searched long and hard to find the
perfect words to describe every emotion, every downfall, and every
happy moment in such a situation.
Another Piece of the Puzzle is the third installment in my line of
poetry from the abused point of view. It shows the stages of
acceptance and finding strength to move past that stage of your
life.
This book is a collection of poetry about love and how it can
change. It contains an array of dark, beautiful, and enchanting
emotions. Through the eyes of the author, to your understanding.
