Meet Mike. Mike wants to be a responsible human, but he's buried in student loans and job prospects are bleak in the down economy. What he needs is a well-paying job that provides health care. This is what leads Mike to accepting a job at NEOTAP, a government-run prison.
But NEOTAP is unlike any other prison. NEOTAP is a place where the employees are treated no better than the prisoners. Where your personal conversations are monitored. Wait, do you feel that? That's not the ever-loving presence of God you feel. It's NEOTAP, watching you right now. Worst of all, employees and prisoners alike are disappearing from NEOTAP. People who show up for work one day might be gone the next, their existence erased from all NEOTAP records.
After becoming aware of the string of disappearances, Mike and Monica Whitten, a fellow NEOTAP employee, team up to discover the truth behind NEOTAP. But before Mike and Monica discover the violent uprising on the horizon, they will drink pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks, they will watch movies on Netflix, they will form a meaningful relationship in hopes of one day achieving the five pillars of a happy life.
Repeat after me:
Go to work and do your job. Care for your children. Pay your bills. Obey the law. Buy products.

Описание: When Professor Clare Malley, a medievalist teaching at a Catholic university in New York City, is asked to discover why sixteen-year-old Jonas Crosswell did not die in a drug-related shoot-out at a neighborhood church, the last thing she expects is a modern-day miracle. But how else to explain how the boy survived multiple gunshot wounds? Was it a miracle performed by the mysterious Father Enoch? Or did St. Lazarus himself intervene? And what does Jonas`s experience have to do with Sean, the troubled heir to a pharmaceutical fortune who vanished after he was also-supposedly-miraculously cured? When Clare tries to discover whether there is a connection between Jonas and Sean, she uncovers an all-too-real, unholy conspiracy to use neighborhood drug dealers as unknowing guinea pigs. Sean may be the only one who can answer her questions-and the only one who can truly touch her heart.

It is July of 1865, and, in Saratoga Springs, everyone wants to put the war behind them. Yet, Rose Adair cannot forget Lane Fallon, the Englishman she last saw dragged off to be hanged as a Confederate spy. When Fallon is pulled from Congress Spring, after apparently having killed a man over the same smuggled artifact that nearly killed her father two years ago, Rose is forced to confront the possibility that Fallon was an assassin hired by her cousin Preston, who is attempting to seize control of the family fortune. And when Rose's father suddenly dies, Preston is in a perfect position to finally get what he wants. So Rose plays along with Fallon's impulsive claim that they were secretly wed to discover whether her father's death was the result of an ancient curse or an all-too-real seditious conspiracy.
Rose and Lane's search leads them to Sammy Nunn, the Irishman whom Lane had entrusted with the proof of the conspiracy, which began when Lane offered to sell Adair the bridle of Mananaan mac Lir, with its legendary power to raise a hero, in order to trace a network of smugglers of Irish antiquities. Instead Fallon was approached by a cabal of wealthy New Yorkers to engineer a Fenian atrocity that would allow New York City to be handed over to the Confederacy. But Sammy is intent on playing both sides against the middle, and when he is found dead, Preston blames Cole Washington, a former slave and jockey, claiming he is seeking revenge for his wife, who was killed by the Irish during the New York City draft riots. Suddenly, fresh riots threaten to erupt in Saratoga.
Lane rescues Washington from lynching, and the two make a wild escape on horseback to John Morrissey, the real life bare-knuckles boxer and ex-convict who made Saratoga Springs the most famous resort in the world. Morrissey admits he killed the man found in the spring, who was sent by his wealthy partners to eliminate him. Having proof that many of these wealthy, powerful men were also involved in attempting to deliver New York City to the Confederacy gives Morrissey much-needed leverage over these men.
Lane clinches this proof by setting himself up as bait in the Grandstand at Saratoga, where black people, even jockeys, are not allowed, forcing Preston to reveal himself and betray his co-conspirators. And a fevered vision and mumbled confession after Lane has been shot reveals his surprisingly heroic side, for he took the bridle of Mananaan mac Lir, with its mystical power of raising a hero, to Gettysburg, where he rallied the Irish Brigade for their impossibly valiant last stand on the battleground known as the Wheatfield. The story ends with an epilogue on the Wheatfield, where a black teamster picks up a bridle that was left behind. Is it the bridle of Mananaan mac Lir, now destined to raise a new hero to serve his people in their time of greatest need?

A Profound and Stirring Call to Action in Our Troubled World--from One of America's Great Religious Leaders
"Conscience may be understood as the hidden inner compass that guides our lives and must be searched for and recovered repeatedly. At no time more than our own is this need to retrieve the shards of broken conscience more urgent." --from the Introduction
This clarion call to rethink our moral and political behavior examines the idea of conscience and the role conscience plays in our relationships to government, law, ethics, religion, human nature and God--and to each other. From Abraham to Abu Ghraib, from the dissenting prophets to Darfur, Rabbi Harold Schulweis probes history, the Bible and the works of contemporary thinkers for ideas about both critical disobedience and uncritical obedience. He illuminates the potential for evil and the potential for good that rests within us as individuals and as a society.
By questioning religion's capacity--and will--to break from mindless conformity, Rabbi Schulweis challenges us to counter our current suppressive culture of obedience with the culture of moral compassion, and to fulfill religion's obligation to make room for and carry out courageous moral dissent.

Описание: The Fascist regime under Mussolini regarded its youth as its best hope for the future. Young people were courted more assiduously than any other group in the society and their political socialization became a central concern of the government. <i>Believe, Obey, Fight</i> discusses the various tools used by the Fascist regime from 1922 to 1943 to shape the political values and environment of the young. Tracy Koon focuses on the secondary agents of socialization, including the party, the educational establishment, youth groups, and the media of political communication. She shows that the response to this socialization ranged from apparent consent to dissent and finally to open opposition.<BR><BR>The regime employed several methods to produce consensus among the young. Koon's analysis begins with a discussion of the rhetorical style of Mussolini's message and the key political myths manipulated by his propaganda machine: fascism as continuing revolution and social justice, the glories of ancient Rome, the hygienic function of war and violence, the religious spirit of the new creed, and the omniscience of the leader. She then describes the pre-Fascist educational system, the ""most Fascist"" Gentile reforms of 1923, and the later revision of those reforms by zealous party men engaged in the Fascist regimentation of teachers and students and the militarization and politicization of curricula and textbooks.<BR><BR>Equally important agents of socialization were the Fascist groups organized for young people from their earliest years through the university level, including the annual national competitions and forums in which members could express their ideas on a range of issues. The regime provided physical, military, sports, and political training to strengthen the new Fascist society.<BR><BR>Fascist socialization did for a time create a superficial consensus by appealing to both the love of conformity that marks the very young and the economic fears that caused students to conform in the hope of jobs. But Koon argues that the regime's attempt to exert totalitarian control over the young deprived them of personal identity. As time passed, the contradictions of the regime became clearer, the chasm between Fascist rhetoric and reality more obvious. In the end, the majority of young people came to believe that the regime had given them nothing to believe in, no one to obey, and nothing for which to fight.<BR><BR>A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print.
