AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The bestselling author of The Parasitic Mind shows why empathy in politics leads to civilizational collapse. What happens when a society elevates victimhood to a virtue and decides that punishment is cruel? You get the disease Dr. Gad Saad calls suicidal empathy. And the West may be terminally infected. In his new book, Suicidal Empathy, Saad unleashes a blistering critique of maladaptively irrational altruism that has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. The results are everywhere: from coddling violent criminals to protecting rapists to branding self-defense as toxic behavior. We are witnessing a civilization in rapid decline. Lunatic policies are instituted because we prioritize the feelings of ostensibly marginalized groups over The Truth, criminals over victims, and squatters over homeowners. This is not humane; it’s an active dismantling of the pillars that keep us safe and free. This crisis of empathy creates a horrifying system of inverse morality where the strong and successful are demonized, and the destructive are celebrated. Just look at the insane inversions we tolerate daily: we prefer illegal migrants over our own legal citizens and veterans, permit drug addicts to threaten children’s safety in parks, and elevate transgender 'women' above biological women in sports and safe spaces. Common sense is dying in a deluge of misguided compassion. Suicidal Empathy is your wake-up call. Stop ignoring your survival instincts in the name of political correctness. This isn't just misguided policy; it is the ultimate expression of a culture actively choosing its own demise.

A FOREIGN POLICY MAGAZINE BOOK TO READ Less than a decade after Washington endorsed a fraudulent case for invading Iraq, similarly misinformed and politically motivated claims are pushing America toward war with Iran. Challenging the daily clamor of American saber rattling, Flynt and Hillary Mann Leverett argue that America should renounce thirty years of failed politics, diplomacy and strategy and engage with Iran―just as Nixon revolutionized U.S. foreign policy by going to Beijing and realigning relations with China. In Going to Tehran, former analysts in both the Bush and Clinton administrations, the Leveretts offer a uniquely informed account of Iran as it actually is today, not as many have caricatured it or wished it to be. They show that Iran's political order is not on the verge of collapse, that most Iranians still support the Islamic Republic, and that Iran's regional influence makes it critical to progress in the Middle East. Drawing on years of research and access to high-level officials, the Leveretts' indispensable work makes it clear that America must "go to Tehran" if it is to avert strategic catastrophe.

Juan Ramón Rallo reconstruye y destruye en dos tomos el pensamiento económico de Marx Karl Marx es incuestionablemente uno de los pensadores más influyentes de la historia. Ningún otro autor ha logrado un predicamento similar al suyo en disciplinas tan dispares como la Economía, la Filosofía, la Historiografía, la Sociología o las Ciencias Políticas. Sus ideas han alentado movimientos sociales y políticos de masas que en muchos casos llegaron a tomar el poder y a aplicar un programa revolucionario de inspiración marxista. De entre toda la abundantísima literatura que existe sobre Marx, este libro de Juan Ramón Rallo es único por dos motivos. En primer lugar, no hay otra obra que ofrezca simultáneamente una revisión sobre Marx y a la vez contra Marx tan extensa y detallada. En segundo lugar, no existe hasta el momento una crítica integral a la teoría económica marxista tan meticulosa y ordenada como la que presenta Rallo. El primer tomo está dirigido a presentar el pensamiento marxista, especialmente ―aunque no exclusivamente― en su vertiente económica, de un modo sistemático y aséptico: no se pretende ni distorsionar ni caricaturizar a Marx, sino simplemente explicar, del modo más accesible posible, cuáles fueron sus ideas. Con este fin, Rallo revisa, desmenuza e integra la extensa obra de Marx, desde La crítica a la filosofía del derecho de Hegel a las Glosas marginales a Adolf Wagner, pasando por Los Manuscritos económico-filosóficos de 1844, La ideología alemana, La miseria de la filosofía, los Grundrisse, las Teorías sobre la plusvalía, sus artículos en prensa, sus manifiestos políticos, su correspondencia personal y, por supuesto, los tres monumentales volúmenes de El Capital. A través del análisis conjunto de toda esta literatura, auxiliada por el estudio de la obra de Engels y de otros destacados intelectuales marxistas, Rallo consigue exponer de un modo coherente las teorías de Marx sobre el valor, el dinero, el capital, la explotación, los precios, los salarios, las ganancias, las clases sociales, el crecimiento económico, las crisis económicas y el advenimiento del comunismo. En el segundo tomo Rallo hace una crítica exhaustiva y rigurosa del pensamiento marxista: su objetivo es detallar y demostrar todos los errores que cometió Marx al describir la estructura y el funcionamiento del capitalismo para, al mismo tiempo, exponer cuáles son las auténticas anatomía y dinámica de la sociedad moderna. En suma, se pretende rescatar al capitalismo de la crítica marxista a través de la crítica a Marx: una crítica a la crítica.  Con este fin, Rallo desmonta paciente y escalonadamente los pilares que sostienen el edificio intelectual del marxismo. En primer lugar, las mercancías son intercambiables por ser bienes económicos que satisfacen necesidades humanas y se intercambian en función de la importancia relativa de las necesidades que permiten satisfacer. En segundo lugar, valor de uso y valor no son facetas contradictorias de la mercancía, sino facetas que se complementan y potencian mutuamente: el valor no anula al valor de uso, sino que contribuye a multiplicarlo y a desarrollarlo. En tercer lugar, el capitalista no es capitalista por explotar la fuerza de trabajo del obrero, sino por suministrar tiempo, protección e información dentro del proceso de producción, elevando así la productividad social y, por tanto, elevando el bienestar de todos (incluido el del obrero). En cuarto lugar, la circulación del capital no profundiza la separación entre el obrero y los medios de producción, sino que posibilita la capitalización histórica del obrero. En quinto lugar, los precios de producción de las mercancías no guardan ninguna conexión necesaria con sus valores-trabajo sino con sus utilidades marginales para los compradores. En sexto lugar, las clases sociales no están predeterminadas por la posición de cada individuo respecto al control social de los medios de producción, sino que la estructura de control de los medios de producción depende de las funciones económicas que cada individuo desempeñe a través o al margen de esos medios de producción. En séptimo lugar, no hay ninguna tendencia a que la tasa general de ganancia decrezca a largo plazo o, al menos, no por las razones que expone Marx. Y, por último, el comunismo no es una inevitabilidad histórica y su promesa de liberación de la humanidad supondría, en realidad, la supresión de la libertad individual. En su Anti-Marx, Juan Ramón Rallo aborda la titánica tarea de reconstruir y destruir a la vez el pensamiento económico de Marx. Se trata de la más ambiciosa crítica al marxismo escrita hasta la fecha.

La importancia del legado español frente a las atrocidades cometidas por los enemigos de España En este excepcional libro, Marcelo Gullo Omodeo demuestra que, en el «Tribunal de la Historia», España ha sido juzgada por jueces parciales con testigos falsos. Y asevera: Que América, antes de 1492, se asemejaba más al infierno que al paraíso, pues reinaban en el Nuevo Mundo los sacrificios humanos, el canibalismo, la esclavitud, el machismo y la prostitución. Que Bartolomé de las Casas fue un mercenario disfrazado de sacerdote. Que durante cuatro siglos, Gran Bretaña, Holanda, Estados Unidos, Francia y Alemania ―sin ninguna autoridad moral― le han exigido a España que pida perdón por los supuestos pecados cometidos durante la conquista de América, cuando, en realidad, son esas naciones las que deberían hacerlo porque sus manos están manchadas de sangre. Que España no tiene nada por lo que pedir perdón porque la conquista de América fue uno de los mayores intentos que el mundo haya visto por hacer prevalecer la justicia y los valores cristianos en una época brutal y sanguinaria. Que ese intento exitoso convirtió a España en una excepción en la historia de la humanidad porque ni antes ni después una nación se comportó de esa manera. Y que precisamente por eso mismo cuando el papa Francisco era el padre Jorge consideraba que no había nada por lo que pedir perdón.

A top cybersecurity journalist tells the story behind the virus that sabotaged Iran’s nuclear efforts and shows how its existence has ushered in a new age of warfare—one in which a digital attack can have the same destructive capability as a megaton bomb.  “Immensely enjoyable . . . Zetter turns a complicated and technical cyber story into an engrossing whodunit.”—The Washington Post   The virus now known as Stuxnet was unlike any other piece of malware built before: Rather than simply hijacking targeted computers or stealing information from them, it proved that a piece of code could escape the digital realm and wreak actual, physical destruction—in this case, on an Iranian nuclear facility.   In these pages, journalist Kim Zetter tells the whole story behind the world’s first cyberweapon, covering its genesis in the corridors of the White House and its effects in Iran—and telling the spectacular, unlikely tale of the security geeks who managed to unravel a top secret sabotage campaign years in the making.   But Countdown to Zero Day also ranges beyond Stuxnet itself, exploring the history of cyberwarfare and its future, showing us what might happen should our infrastructure be targeted by a Stuxnet-style attack, and ultimately, providing a portrait of a world at the edge of a new kind of war.

"You will find lots of jewels in these pages that may do as much for you as they have for me."-from the Introduction by Kenneth L. Fisher Forbes columnist Widely respected and admired, Philip Fisher is among the most influential investors of all time. His investment philosophies, introduced almost forty years ago, are not only studied and applied by today's finance professionals, but are also regarded by many as gospel. He recorded these philosophies in Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits, a book considered invaluable reading when it was first published in 1958, and a must-read today. Acclaim for Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits "I sought out Phil Fisher after reading his Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits...When I met him, I was impressed by the man as by his ideas. A thorough understanding of the business, obtained by using Phil's techniques...enables one to make intelligent investment commitments."-Warren Buffett "Little known to the public, rarely interviewed and accepting few clients, Philip Fisher is nevertheless read and studied by most thoughtful investment professionals . . . everyone will profit from pondering-as Warren Buffett has done-the investment principles Fisher espouses."-James W. Michaels Editor, Forbes "My own copy [of Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits] has underlinings and marginal thoughts throughout."-John Train Author of Dance of the Money Bees

The classic history of the political and economic devastation wrought by runaway inflation in Weimar Germany—“brilliant” (Guardian)   In 1923, with its currency effectively worthless (the exchange rate in December of that year was one dollar to 4,200,000,000,000 marks), the German republic was all but reduced to a barter economy. Expensive cigars, artworks, and jewels were routinely exchanged for staples such as bread; a cinema ticket could be bought for a lump of coal; and a bottle of paraffin for a silk shirt. People watched helplessly as their life savings disappeared and their loved ones starved. Germany's finances descended into chaos, with severe social unrest in its wake.   Money may no longer be physically printed and distributed in the voluminous quantities of 1923. However, "quantitative easing," that modern euphemism for surreptitious deficit financing in an electronic era, can no less become an assault on monetary discipline. Whatever the reason for a country's deficit— necessity or profligacy, unwillingness to tax or blindness to expenditure—it is beguiling to suppose that if the day of reckoning is postponed economic recovery will come in time to prevent higher unemployment or deeper recession. What if it does not? Germany in 1923 provides a vivid, compelling, sobering moral tale.

Bitcoin was promised to be a liberating technology, a free market alternative to state-controlled money. But that promise was broken after a small group of insiders took over the project and fundamentally changed Bitcoin's design. Few people know the true history of Bitcoin and its original design due to years of heavy censorship, social media engineering, and tight information controls online. Hijacking Bitcoin destroys the most popular narratives that surround Bitcoin and sets the historical record straight. Roger Ver's passion and pain come through as he tells the story of a beloved project corrupted in front of his eyes. Written by one of the most prominent figures in the cryptocurrency industry, this book is impossible to ignore. From the inside flap: Bitcoin has been captured and changed for the worse. That's the undeniable conclusion of Hijacking Bitcoin. Chocked full of history and inconvenient truths, this book goes on a myth-busting rampage against the most popular narratives that surround BTC. Is Bitcoin truly decentralized? Is it supposed to be digital gold or digital cash? Did the original design really have scaling problems? Roger Ver addresses these questions head-on and provides uncomfortable answers. Roger Ver is the world's first investor in Bitcoin startups and has been a prominent name in the cryptocurrency industry since the beginning. Yet, as he confesses in the introduction, this book is not a love story. It's a devastating exposé of the corruption, propaganda, and centralization of power in Bitcoin.
