Hardback. Condition: Good. ? Human Rights ? Equality ? Free Speech ? Privacy ? The Rule of Law These five ideas are vitally important to the way of life we enjoy today. The battle to establish them in law was long and difficult, and Anthony Lester was at the heart of the thirty-year campaign that resulted in the Human Rights Act, as well as the struggle for race and gender equality that culminated in the Equality Act of 2010. Today, however, our society is at risk of becoming less equal. From Snowden?s revelations about the power and reach of our own intelligence agencies to the treatment of British Muslims, our civil liberties are under threat as never before. The internet leaves our privacy in jeopardy in myriad ways, our efforts to combat extremism curtail free speech, and cuts to legal aid and interference with access to justice endanger the rule of law. A fierce argument for why we must act now to ensure the survival of the ideals that enable us to live freely, Five Ideas to Fight For is a revealing account of what we need to protect our hard-won rights and freedoms.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. Fasten your seatbelts, America. The electric vehicle is about to take us on one heck of a ride. So states James Billmaier in his groundbreaking book on the impending electric  vehicle (EV) revolution. He argues that in addition to being a blast to drive, EVs will come to dominate the personal auto market in the coming years because they are cheaper to run and cheaper to maintain. Adopting EVs will also allow America to put the brakes on sending hundreds of billions of dollars a year to OPEC, helping us achieve energy  independence within a decade. But that's only part of the story. Billmaier outlines how EVs will propel the coming "electriconomy," a consumer-driven economic boom that will be ignited as our society is  transformed from an oil-based economy to one powered by electricity. The electriconomy will dwarf all previous technology revolutions--it will be bigger than the computer and  Internet markets combined--and will catapult the economy of whichever nation masters it. It's a race we need to win for reasons of national and economic security, Billmaier says,  but we need to move fast. China is determined to own the EV space itself, an outcome that would be as detrimental to U.S. national security as our current dependence on foreign  oil is today. In these pages, he describes what we need to do to win the EV race--what America must do to take charge! &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Shannon Watts was a stay-at-home mom folding laundry when news of the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary flashed across the television screen. In one moment, she went from outraged to engaged and decided to do something about it. What started as a simple Facebook group to connect with other frustrated parents grew into Moms Demand Action, a national movement with millions of supporters and a powerful grassroots network of local chapters in all 50 states. Shannon has been called "the NRA's worst nightmare"--and her army of moms have bravely gone up against the gun lobby, showing up in their signature red shirts, blocking the hallways of congress with their strollers, electing gun sense candidates and running for office themselves, proving that if the 80 million moms in this country come together, they can put an end to gun violence. Fight Like a Mother is the incredible account how one mother's cry for change became the driving force behind gun safety progress. Along with stories of perseverance, courage, and compassion, Watts shines a light on the unique power of women--starting with what they have, leading with their maternal strengths, and doubling down instead of backing down. While not everyone can be on the front lines lobbying congress, every mom is already a multi-tasking organizer, and Shannon explains how to go from amateur activist to having a real impact in your community and beyond. Fight Like a Mother will inspire everyone--mothers and fathers, students and teachers, lawmakers, and anyone motivated to enact change--to get to work transforming hearts and minds, and passing laws that save lives.   This part manifesto, part manual for social change reveals how to: From Outrage to Action: Learn how Shannon Watts went from a stay-at-home mom devastated by the Sandy Hook news to the founder of a national movement in a single afternoon.

A Playbook for Change: Master the tactics that made Moms Demand Action the NRA's "worst nightmare," from organizing locally to showing up in red shirts and making your voice heard. Women's Empowerment: Harness the unique maternal strengths every parent already has--organizing, multitasking, and doubling down instead of backing down--to create lasting social change.…
