Fewer Rules, Better People by Barry Lam (.ePUB)
đź Fewer Rules, Better People by Barry Lam (.ePUB) A philosopher argues that the proliferation of rules and mandates is making us dumber, less moral, more deceptive, and less able to govern important institutions. Wherever there's a rule, there is someone with the power to apply or ignore itâor add to it, in the interest of justice. From enforcing chores to issuing life sentences, decision-makers deliver flawed and sometimes arbitrary outcomes. But is their use of discretion good or bad overall? As a society, should we seek to minimize or maximize discretion, with all its potential for bias and other kinds of human error? Reframing our understanding of justice and ethics, philosopher Barry Lam argues that while use of discretionâwhether by a sports referee, a parent, a police officer, or a judgeâcan never be perfect, removing it has even more problematic effects. Mandatory arrests and sentencing laws have not eliminated bias, but have corrupted the courtroom, institutionalized lying, and brought about even more unjust and arbitrary results. Fewer Rules, Better People is a bold, riveting treatise that sheds new light on political debates about law and justice while aiming to prepare us for the imminent threat of more "perfect," discretion-less rule enforcement by AI. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Barry Lam Size 670KB Category Non-Fiction > Faith, Beliefs & Philosophy File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/3S5JuFg3DBTb https://devuploads.com/upicrxpkt5tg

You Didn't Hear This From Me by Kelsey McKinney (.ePUB)
đź You Didn't Hear This From Me by Kelsey McKinney (.ePUB) ONE OF LITHUBâS MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2025From the host of the Normal Gossip podcast, a delightfully insightful exploration of our obsession with gossip that weaves together journalism, cultural criticism, and memoir. As the pandemic forced us to socialize at a distance, Kelsey McKinney was mourning the juicy updates and jaw-dropping stories sheâd typically collect over drinks with friendsâand from her hunger, the blockbuster Normal Gossip podcast was born. With listenership in the millions, Kelsey found herself thinking more critically about gossip as a form, and wanting to better understand the role it plays in our culture. InYou Didnât Hear This From Me, McKinney explores the murkiness of everyday storytelling. Why is gossip considered a sin, and how can we better recognize when itâs being weaponized? Why do we think weâre entitled to every detail of a celebrityâs personal life? And how do we define âgossip,â anyway? As much as the book aims to treat gossip as a subject worthy of rigor, it also hopes to capture the heart of gossiping: how enchanting and fun it can be to lean over and whisper something a little salacious into your friendâs ear. With wit and honesty, McKinney unmasks what weâre actually searching for when we demand to know the truthâand how much the truth really matters in the first place. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Kelsey Mckinney Size 1.3MB Category Non-fiction > Biographies / Memoirs File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/gRoB0JQp3SaJ https://devuploads.com/1iza0uf386pm

In this modern translation by acclaimed Elena Ferrante translator Ann Goldstein, Forbidden Notebook Forbidden Notebook centers the inner life of a dissatisfied housewife living in postwar Rome. Valeria Cossati never suspected how unhappy she had become with the shabby gentility of her bourgeois lifeâuntil she begins to jot down her thoughts and feelings in a little black book she keeps hidden in a closet. This new secret activity leads her to scrutinize herself and her life more closely, and she soon realizes that her individuality is being stifled by her devotion and sense of duty toward her husband, daughter, and son. As the conflicts between parents and children, husband and wife, and friends and lovers intensify, what goes on behind the Cossatisâ facade of middle-class respectability gradually comes to light, tearing the familyâs fragile fabric apart.

Later, she is sent away to live with her fatherâs relatives in the country, in the hope sheâll finally learn to submit herself to the patriarchal system and authority. But at the farm, Alessandra grows increasingly rebellious, conscious of the unjust treatment of generations of hardworking women in her family. When she refuses the marriage proposal from a neighboring farmer, she is sent back to Rome to tend to her ailing father. In Rome, Alessandra meets Francesco, a charismatic anti-fascist professor, who ostensibly admires and supports her sense of independence and justice. But she soon comes to recognize that even as she respects Francesco and is keen to participate in his struggle to reclaim their country from fascism, this respect is unrequited, and that her own beloved husband is ensnared by patriarchal conventions when it comes to their relationship.

You might feel pressured by a partner to "get back to normal," or worry that you're broken, no longer able to connect authentically to your sexuality. You're not broken, and you will feel desire again. In What Happened to My Sex Life?, Dr. Kate Balestrieriâlicensed sex therapist, founder of Modern Intimacy, and host of the podcast Get Naked with Dr. Kateâuncovers the twelve most common causes of a loss of libido. Then she shares what you can do to overcome them and reignite your passion. Sometimes the cause of a dip in desire is obvious: stress at work, a fight with your partner. But often, it's not so clear. Maybe you're struggling with shame, burnout, or feeling disconnected from your body. Or maybe you're dealing with libido-killers like a partner's entitlement, a stagnating long-term relationship, or feelings of objectification. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Kate Balestrieri Size 940KB Category Non-Fiction > Health, Fitness & Self-help File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/tg6n5KpBz8jG https://devuploads.com/wtkkerevknk9

Part boozy lovesick rage and part personal reflection on the nature of fame,Autopsy (of an Ex-Teen Heartthrob)is a sharp, tantalizing collection of poems examining Avanâs relationship with ego, idolatry, love as an act of worship, rage as an act of prayer, and sadness as confession. Through vivid imagery (and sometimes startling honesty) Avan cuts himself open and observes the false gods he has worshipped, the ways he has sinned, and exhumes a version of himself that looks like someone we all know: a person searching for the means to cure pain, mend the wounds of insecurity, and satiate cravings for love. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Avan Jogia Size 1.9MB Category Fiction > Poetry File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/dfFt91a9t2CP https://devuploads.com/phh39rwic2ps

Camp Jeff by Tova Reich (.ePUB)
đź Camp Jeff by Tova Reich (.ePUB) An old New York Catskills hotel is converted into a Reeducation center for star #MeToo offenders in a story full of cunning and craft, double meanings and doppelgangers.A finalist for the National Jewish Book Award strikes again with another brilliant satireâa treat for readers of Philip Roth, Dara Horn, Nathan Englander, and others. Somewhere in the Catskills thereâs a camp, itâs called Camp Jeff. The place is named for Jeffrey Epstein, not that Jeffrey Epstein, this is the good Jeffrey Epstein, a benefactor who wants his name on the building, though the bad oneâs not entirely irrelevant to this story. Tova Reichâs newest novel, on the heels of her award-winningMother Indiais a raucous and biting tale of a reeducation camp for alleged sex offenders. Reichâs verbal blade is sharp and she slashes with it, but not without the sensitivity that such incisiveness requires. Camp Jeff is a work in Reichâs signature satirical mode, an unhindered indictment of both #MeToo and therapeutic culture, and at the same time is also a deeply considered work of psychological portraiture and an examination of love, faith, and affection in American culture. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Tova Reich Size 3.4MB Category Fiction > General/Classics File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/GAzOIpW4NMUZ https://devuploads.com/hkoduj0byhfo

Ibis by Justin Haynes (.ePUB)
đź Ibis by Justin Haynes (.ePUB) A bold, witty, magical new voice in fiction, Justin Haynes weaves a cross-generational Caribbean story of migration, superstition, and a search for family in the novel Ibis. There is bad luck in New Felicity. The people of the small coastal village have taken in Milagros, an 11-year-old Venezuelan refugee, just as Trinidadâs government has begun cracking down on undocumented migrantsâand now an American journalist has come to town asking questions. New Felicityâs superstitious fishermen fear the worst, certain theyâve brought bad luck on the village by killing a local witch who had herself murdered two villagers the year before. The town has been plagued since her death by alarming visits from her supernatural mother, as well as by a mysterious profusion of scarlet ibis birds. Skittish that the reporterâs story will bring down the wrath of the ministry of national security, the fishermen take things into their own hands. From there, we go backward and forward in timeâfrom the townâs early days, when it was the site of a sugar plantation, to Milagrosâs adulthood as she searches for her mother across the Americas. In between, through the voices of a chorus of narrators, we glimpse moments from various villagersâ lives, each one setting into motion events that will reverberate outwards across the novel and shape Milagrosâs fate. With kinetic, absorbing language and a powerful sense of voice,Ibismeditates on the bond between mothers and daughters, both highlighting the migrant crisis that troubles the contemporary world and offering a moving exploration of how to square where we come from with who we become. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Justin Haynes Size 1.1MB Category Fiction > General/Classics File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/9djfm0VCYH3C https://devuploads.com/pcflb3575uss

Mazeltov by Eli Zuzovsky (.ePUB)
đź Mazeltov by Eli Zuzovsky (.ePUB) In a glorious debut, a boy confronts queer lust, shame, the threat of war, and the plague of family on the day he becomes a man. At a banquet hall, at the onset of war, Adam Weizmannâs bar mitzvah party turns into a glorious catastrophe. On the cusp of manhoodâand the verge of a nervous breakdownâAdam has been bracing for his special day, mired in family neuroses and national dysfunction. In a chorus of voices, a fractious cast of well-wishers narrates Adamâs coming-of-age in Israel: his newly devout father and the mystic rituals he practiced on his young son; his best friend, Abbie, who points the way to joyful transgression; Khalil, a Palestinian poet, who offers a glimpse of a different way to be; and Adam himself, filled with shame and desire as he faces the brokenness of his world. At once tender and lustful, a work of scathing satire and piercing insight, Mazeltov is a wholly original vision of a young manâs quest to know his own heart. â»ïž Book's Info: Author Eli Zuzovsky Size 1.3MB Category Fiction > General/Classics, LGBT File Type ePUB đ„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/pEqaunH9hPpl https://devuploads.com/gz7en3l2g925
