The nation has transformed. The calls for racial equity are loud
and insistent and they are now being listened to. And yet,
companies across the country are still far behind when it comes to
equity in the workplace. For decades, we've heard variations on the
same theme on how to increase diversity and inclusion and we have
still not moved. If we want equity to matter inside and outside the
workplace, if we want to be real allies for change, then we need a
new approach. We need to stop following trends. We need to lead
change. In Authentic Diversity, culture change expert and diversity
speaker, Michelle Silverthorn, explains how to transform diversity
and inclusion from mere lip service into the very heart of
leadership. Following the journey of a Black woman in the
workplace, leaders learn the old rules of diversity that keep
failing her and millions like her again and again, and the new
rules they must put in place to make success a reality for
everyone. A millennial, immigrant, and Black woman in America,
Michelle will show you how to lead a space centered on equity,
allyship, and inclusion and how together we can build a new
organization, and nation, centered on justice.

Francis Bacon's New Organon, published in 1620, was revolutionary in its attempt to give formal philosophical shape to a new and rapidly emerging experimental science. It challenged the entire edifice of the philosophy and learning of Bacon's time, and left its mark on all subsequent discussions of scientific method. This volume presents a new translation of the text into modern English by Michael Silverthorne, together with an introduction by Lisa Jardine that sets the work in the context of Bacon's scientific and philosophical activities.
Spinoza's Ethics is one of the most significant texts of the early
modern period, important to history, philosophy, Jewish studies and
religious studies. It had a major influence on Enlightenment
thinkers and the development of the modern world. In Ethics,
Spinoza addresses the most fundamental perennial philosophical
questions concerning the nature of God, human beings and a good
life. His startling answers synthesize the longstanding traditions
of ancient Greek and Jewish philosophy with the developments of the
emerging scientific revolution. The resulting philosophical system
casts out the willing, personal God of Abrahamic religions and
takes up the challenge of reconceiving the natural world and human
beings in an entirely secular way. This volume offers a new
translation based on a new critical edition, reflecting the state
of the art in Spinoza scholarship, and also includes an
introduction, chronology and glossary to help make this notoriously
difficult text accessible.
Spinoza's Theological-Political Treatise (1670) is one of the most
important philosophical works of the early modern period. In it
Spinoza discusses at length the historical circumstances of the
composition and transmission of the Bible, demonstrating the
fallibility of both its authors and its interpreters. He argues
that free enquiry is not only consistent with the security and
prosperity of a state but actually essential to them, and that such
freedom flourishes best in a democratic and republican state in
which individuals are left free while religious organizations are
subordinated to the secular power. His Treatise has profoundly
influenced the subsequent history of political thought,
Enlightenment 'clandestine' or radical philosophy, Bible
hermeneutics, and textual criticism more generally. It is presented
here in a new translation of great clarity and accuracy by Michael
Silverthorne and Jonathan Israel, with a substantial historical and
philosophical introduction by Jonathan Israel.

De Cive (On the Citizen) is the first full exposition of the political thought of Thomas Hobbes, the greatest English political philosopher of all time. Professors Tuck and Silverthorne have undertaken the first complete translation since 1651, a rendition long thought (in error) to be at least sanctioned by Hobbes himself. On the Citizen is written in a clear, straightforward, expository style, offering students a more digestible account of Hobbes' political thought than even Leviathan itself. This new translation is itself a very significant scholarly event.

Samuel Pufendorf is one of the most important moral and political philosophers of the seventeenth century. His theory, which builds on Grotius and Hobbes, was immediately recognized as a classic and taken up by writers as diverse as Locke, Hume, Rousseau, and Smith. Over the past twenty years there has been a renaissance of Pufendorf scholarship. On the Duty of Man and Citizen is Pufendorf's own epitome of his monumental On the Law of Nature and of Nations, and it served as a basic text in European universities throughout the Enlightenment. This edition has a lucid and historically sensitive translation by Michael Silverthorne, the first since the early twentieth century. James Tully's introduction sets the text in its context, summarizes the main arguments, surveys recent literature on Pufendorf, and shows how Pufendorf transformed natural law theory into an independent discipline of juristic political philosophy that dominated reflection on politics until Kant.
