A compelling and deeply felt exploration and defense ofliberalism: what it actually is, why it is relevant today, and howit can help our society chart a forward course. The Future of Liberalism represents the culmination of fourdecades of thinking and writing about contemporary politics by AlanWolfe, one of America’s leading scholars, hailed by one critic as“one of liberalism’s last and most loyal sons.” Wolfe mines thebedrock of the liberal tradition, explaining how Immanuel Kant,John Stuart Mill, John Dewey, and other celebrated minds helpedshape liberalism’s central philosophy. Wolfe also examines thosewho have challenged liberalism since its inception, fromJean-Jacques Rousseau to modern conservatives, religiousfundamentalists, and evolutionary theorists such as RichardDawkins. Drawing on both the inspiration and insights of seminal workssuch as John Locke’s Second Treatise on Government, Adam Smith’sTheory of Moral Sentiments, Kant’s essay “What is Enlightenment?,”and Mil

Roosevelt's Secret War is crowded with remarkablerevelations: -FDR wanted to bomb Tokyo before Pearl Harbor -A defector from Hitler's inner circle reported directly to theOval Office -Roosevelt knew before any other world leader of Hitler's plan toinvade Russia -Roosevelt and Churchill concealed a disaster costing hundreds ofBritish soldiers' lives in order to protect Ultra, the Britishcodebreaking secret -An unwitting Japanese diplomat provided the President with adirect pipeline into Hitler's councils Roosevelt's Secret War also describes how much FDR had beentold--before the Holocaust--about the coming fate of Europe's Jews.

Capitalism has never been a subject for economists alone.Philosophers, politicians, poets and social scientists have debatedthe cultural, moral, and political effects of capitalism forcenturies, and their claims have been many and diverse. The Mindand the Market is a remarkable history of how the idea ofcapitalism has developed in Western thought. Ranging across an ideological spectrum that includes Hobbes,Voltaire, Adam Smith, Edmund Burke, Hegel, Marx, and MatthewArnold, as well as twentieth-century communist, fascist, andneoliberal intellectuals, historian Jerry Muller examines afascinating thread of ideas about the ramifications of capitalismand its future implications. This is an engaging and accessiblehistory of ideas that reverberate throughout everyday life.

This book builds on institutionalist theory in both economicsand political science to offer a general political economyframework for the study of welfare capitalism. Based on the keyidea that social protection in a modern economy, both inside andoutside the state, can be understood as protection of specificinvestments in human capital, the book offers a systematicexplanation of popular preferences for redistributive spending, theeconomic role of political parties and electoral systems, and labormarket stratification (including gender inequality). Contrary tothe popular idea that competition in the global economy underminesinternational differences in the level of social protection, thebook argues that these differences are made possible by a highinternational division of labor. Such a division is what allowsfirms to specialize in production that requires an abundant supplyof workers with specific skills, and hence high demand forprotection.

In business and in life, these principles, among others, directly affect who we are and the way in which we conduct ourselves publicly and privately. Simply, they are both guidelines for and predictors of success, as they were for the man who was arguably the greatest American leader of the twentieth century--Franklin Delano Roosevelt. In Nothing to Fear, the bestselling author of Elizabeth I,CEO and Patton on Leadership, Alan Axelrod, examines the unparalleled leadership qualities of FDR, a man who would come to exemplify the kind of decency,bravery, and relentless courage it took to lift America out of the Great Depression and steer it through the darkest days of World War II, even as he battled a debilitating illness on the public stage. The leadership of FDR transformed the most perilous years of the twentieth century into what many Americans regarded as their finest hour. Axelrod distills Franklin Delano Roosevelt's life and career into fourteen themes containing a wealth of practical lessons for
