The Library of Contemporary Thought is a groundbreaking series that tackles today’s most provocative, fascinating, relevant issues. Original and daring, creative and important, these respected voices on matters political, social, economic, and cultural will enlighten, comfort, enrage, and entertain.Each book is long enough to get to the heart of the subject, short enough to read in one sitting. Some are think pieces. Some are research oriented. Some are journalistic in nature. The form is wide open, but the aim is the same: to say things that need saying. Appearing on a monthly basis, the titles in The Library of Contemporary Thought will excite anyone interested in the most pressing issues of the day.'I cannot credit the Court with balancing the interests of Paula Jones and the public without thereby convicting them of something more damning. Because if this is true, their sense of importance and priorities, their sense of values and balance is so askew, so defective, that they think one citizen’s right to have her day in court, not just eventually but right now, is absolute and more important than the rights of the 260,000,000 people of this nation to have the Office of the Presidency functioning effectively every day of the year'.

Trump’s presidency is not just an indictment of our political system—it’s an affront to our core values as a nation. How could such an ignorant autocratic buffoon claim to represent such a diverse, open, and free society? A majority of ...
