Information Wars, by former Time editor and Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Richard Stengel, provides a first-hand account of the challenges faced by the U.S. in combating the rise of global disinformation, which played a significant role in the 2016 election.

Disinformation is not a new phenomenon, but social media has amplified its reach and effects. Stengel's narrative, both dramatic and enlightening, takes readers through the front lines of the global information war during the last three years of the Obama administration. As the single person in the U.S. government responsible for addressing ISIS's messaging and Russian disinformation, Stengel's insights are crucial for understanding the current landscape.

The book delves into regions such as Russia, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, featuring key figures including Putin, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, and Mohamed bin Salman. It examines how ISIS utilized social media to instill terror and how Russia's disinformation campaign during the annexation of Crimea became a template for future operations, including interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

Information Wars is an urgent call to action, emphasizing the need for democratic societies to develop effective strategies to counteract the growing threat of disinformation and protect the integrity of their institutions.

Indistractable provides a framework that will deliver the focus you need to get results. International bestselling author, former Stanford lecturer, and behavioral design expert, Nir Eyal, wrote Silicon Valley's handbook for making technology habit-forming. Five years after publishing Hooked, Eyal reveals distraction's Achilles' heel in his groundbreaking new book.

In Indistractable, Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving us to distraction. He describes why solving the problem is not as simple as swearing off our devices: Abstinence is impractical and often makes us want more. Eyal lays bare the secret of finally doing what you say you will do with a four-step, research-backed model. Indistractable reveals the key to getting the best out of technology, without letting it get the best of us.

Inside, Eyal overturns conventional wisdom and reveals: Why distraction at work is a symptom of a dysfunctional company culture—and how to fix it; What really drives human behavior and why "time management is pain management"; Why your relationships (and your sex life) depend on you becoming indistractable; How to raise indistractable children in an increasingly distracting world.

Empowering and optimistic, Indistractable provides practical, novel techniques to control your time and attention—helping you live the life you really want.

England, 1879. Annabelle Archer, the brilliant but destitute daughter of a country vicar, has earned herself a place among the first cohort of female students at the renowned University of Oxford. In return for her scholarship, she must support the rising women's suffrage movement. Her charge: recruit men of influence to champion their cause. Her target: Sebastian Devereux, the cold and calculating Duke of Montgomery who steers Britain's politics at the Queen's command. Her challenge: not to give in to the powerful attraction she can't deny for the man who opposes everything she stands for.

Sebastian is appalled to find a suffragist squad has infiltrated his ducal home, but the real threat is his impossible feelings for green-eyed beauty Annabelle. He is looking for a wife of equal standing to secure the legacy he has worked so hard to rebuild, not an outspoken commoner who could never be his duchess. But he wouldn't be the greatest strategist of the Kingdom if he couldn't claim this alluring bluestocking without the promise of a ring...or could he? Locked in a battle with rising passion and a will matching her own, Annabelle will learn just what it takes to topple a duke....

A stunning debut for author Evie Dunmore and her Oxford suffragists in which a fiercely independent vicar's daughter takes on a powerful duke in a fiery love story that threatens to upend the British social order.

The hero hunter is near death when the Monster Association attempts to steal him away, unleashing Centichoro in the process. Bang and company face it head-on before Genos boldly enters the fray!
