Happy to "Graduate Debt Free: Escaping the Student Loan Matrix" by David Shutler! This is one of my favorite books I've narrated and would highly recommend to anyone faced with the prospect of sending a kid to college.
------
In his new book, Dave Shutler analyzes twelve faulty assumptions about obtaining a higher education and shows how they can lead to debilitating college debt. Analogizing to the two realities in the Matrix movies, he reveals underlying facts about the assumptions to high schoolers and their parents.
These assumptions range from deciding whether to attend college in the first place, to the importance of selecting a major, to how to minimize college living costs. This book is a systematic guide to the many misconceptions that students hold in the college application process. Shutler analyzes each misconception, showing how it can lead to debt, and then provides strategies to escape that debt.
Dave Shutler sheds light on scholarships and other significant funding sources that are available for the enterprising student and explores the federal laws that govern student debt. He identifies underlying policy decisions that have contributed to the $1.7 trillion federal debt burden and offers several strategies to help individuals navigate student debt without succumbing to it.
Through planning, students can take charge of their education and escape the matrix of ever-increasing college costs.

... "Shield of David: A History of Jewish Servicemen in America's Armed Forces" by Chaim M. Rosenberg is now available!
----
Since Revolutionary times, Jews have served in the United States armed forces and fought bravely in America's wars.
Jews first arrived in the New World in 1654, seeking religious freedom. Since the beginning of American nationhood, Jewish volunteers and conscripts fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, on both sides of the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, in both World Wars, and in the Korean, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan wars. Over the years, the American military learned to integrate its Jewish servicemen and women by providing Jewish military chaplains, kosher food, religious services, and placing the Star of David on the graves of fallen Jewish soldiers.
The end of conscription and the establishment of the All-Volunteer Force in 1973 offered other paths to serve our country. American Jews have contributed with distinction in the arts and sciences, academia, entertainment, government, and in building the economy. For Jews, America is the Goldene Medinaāthe Golden Country.

... Strategy, Evolution, and War: From Apes to Artificial Intelligence by Kenneth Payne is now available!
-----
Decisions about war have always been made by humans, but now, intelligent machines are on the cusp of changing things, with dramatic consequences for international affairs. This book explores the evolutionary origins of human strategy and makes a provocative argument that artificial intelligence will radically transform the nature of war by changing the psychological basis of decision-making about violence.
Strategy, Evolution, and War is a cautionary preview of how artificial intelligence (AI) will revolutionize strategy more than any development in the last 3,000 years of military history. Kenneth Payne describes strategy as an evolved package of conscious and unconscious behaviors with roots in our primate ancestry. Our minds were shaped by the need to think about warfare, a constant threat for early humans. As a result, we developed a sophisticated and strategic intelligence.
Rather than being just another tool of war, AI will dramatically speed up decision-making and use very different cognitive processes, including when deciding to launch an attack or escalate violence. AI will change the essence of strategy, the organization of armed forces, and the international order.
This book is a fascinating examination of the psychology of strategy from prehistoric times, the ancient world, and into the modern age.

... "Dancing with Monsters: A Tale About Leadership, Success, and Overcoming Fears" by Todd Dewett, PhD
---
Is fear limiting your leadership potential? Dancing with Monsters will inspire you to overcome your fears and optimize your key relationships by leveraging humility, authenticity, and kindness.
Fears and discomfort slow us down and sometimes completely derail our personal progress. As leaders at work, we can similarly be knocked off course by the conflict, personality differences, motivational issues, and performance problems within our teams.

Joe is a depressed vampire at risk of losing his monster status due to poor performance. He is tasked with leading a group of misfit monsters who lack confidence.

... "The Future of the Office" by Peter Cappelli is now available on Audible from G & D Media!
---
The COVID-19 pandemic forced an unprecedented experiment that reshaped white-collar work and turned remote work into a kind of "new normal." Now comes the hard part.
Many employees want to continue that normal and keep working remotely, and most at least want the ability to work occasionally from home. But for employers, the benefits of employees working from home or hybrid approaches are not so obvious. What should both groups do?
In a prescient new book, The Future of the Office: Work from Home, Remote Work, and the Hard Choices We All Face, Wharton professor Peter Cappelli lays out the facts in an effort to provide both employees and employers with a vision of their futures. Cappelli unveils the surprising tradeoffs both may have to accept to get what they want.
Cappelli illustrates the challenges we face by in drawing lessons from the pandemic and deciding what to do moving forward. Do we allow some workers to be permanently remote? Do we let others choose when to work from home? Do we get rid of their offices? What else has to change, depending on the approach we choose?

As Jacobs becomes more at ease with his nickname and starts using his abilities to help others, he finds he is still not done with Malletteās bunch. Or at least what they used to be known as. Lawrence Wiggins, Malletteās lawyer, is found dead, leading the imprisoned crime boss to getting a new attorney appointed from New York. Only this one comes with caveats.
Roger Alexander is not only Malletteās new lawyer, but heās also taking over his organization. But in order to completely take over, he needs Mallette, and the rest of his men, eliminated. He calls for a truce with Jacobs, speaking to him at the cemetery, and offers up the rest of Malletteās men for him on a silver platter. But something isnāt right. Is Alexander really just serving up the rest of Malletteās men, or is he luring Jacobs into a trap to try and get rid of The Eliminator once and for all?

... "In Pursuit of Peace in Israel and Palestine" by Gershon Baskin, now available on Audible!
---
Gershon Baskin's memoir of 38 years of intensive pursuit of peace begins with a childhood on Long Island and a bar mitzvah trip to Israel with his family. Baskin joined Young Judaea back in the States, then later lived on a kibbutz in Israel, where he announced to his parents that he had decided to make aliya, emigrate to Israel. They persuaded him to return to study at NYU, after which he finally emigrated under the auspices of Interns for Peace. In Israel he spent a pivotal two years living with Arabs in the village of Kufr Qara.
Despite the atmosphere of fear, Baskin found he could talk with both Jews and Palestinians and that very few others were engaged in efforts at mutual understanding. For decades he continued to cross borders, often with a kaffiyeh (Arab headdress) on his dashboard to protect his car in Palestinian neighborhoods. Airport passport control became Kafkaesque as Israeli agents routinely identified him as a security threat.
During the many cycles of peace negotiations, Baskin has served both as an outside agitator for peace and as an advisor on the inside of secret talksāfor example, during the prime ministership of Yitzhak Rabin and during the initiative led by Secretary of State John Kerry. Baskin ends the book with his own proposal, which includes establishing a peace education program and cabinet-level ministries of peace in both countries, in order to foster a culture of peace.

Despite the atmosphere of fear, Baskin found he could talk with both Jews and Palestinians, and that very few others were engaged in efforts at mutual understanding. At his initiative, the Ministry of Education and the office of right-wing prime minister Menachem Begin created the Institute for Education for Jewish-Arab Coexistence with Baskin himself as director. Eight years later he founded and codirected the only joint Israeli-Palestinian public policy think-and-do tank in the world, the Israel/Palestine Center for Research and Information. For decades he continued to cross borders, often with a kaffiyeh (Arab headdress) on his dashboard to protect his car in Palestinian neighborhoods.
