Prejudice, Racism, and Tribalism by Anthony M. D'Agostino MD Pdf
This is a thoughtful, frank, and compassionate foray into understanding race and racism in America today. Dr D’Agostino approaches these topics with honesty and wit using research and his own experiences as foundation. Racism, he points out, is profitable. So is fear. Part memoir, part historical survey, he walks the reader through how racism, bias, and tribalism are part of the human experience. The book is for White Americans seeking to understand today’s political and racial divides. His grasp of global history and the actions of all human civilizations from antiquity onward is impressive. He begins with the complexities of finding workable definitions, then explores the historical underpinnings of slavery, colonialism, and xenophobia globally and in the US. Within each chapter he addresses the current moment, particularly how the ideals of liberty and freedom have been perverted to manipulate the fears of White Americans. This book is not an academic study. And there is plenty that the hypersensitive, politically-correct reader will take issue with. If so, that is to their detriment, because this book is a primer for how to do the hard work of examining what it means to be a White American. Not for the sake of feeling guilt or shame over the past, but it’s important to understand how we got to the present so we can avoid being complicit. He invites the reader in by continually asking questions, not in a finger-wagging, preachy way, but as a model for introspection. Throughout the book, he asks himself: What would I have done differently? Many of us like to think we’d have been ardent abolitionists, or righteously denied our privilege, but would we?

The Russian Revolution, 1917–1945 by Anthony D'Agostino Pdf
This book offers a fresh analysis of the Russian Revolution from a global perspective. It stresses the historical role of Soviet Communism in the modernization of the country, the defeat of Nazism, and the rise of American power and world leadership. For students and scholars of the Russian Revolution, there are pivotal questions that merit careful, comprehensive consideration: why did the Tsarist regime unravel in revolution? Why did the Bolsheviks come to power rather than some other party? How did Stalin—rather than a more popular and respected leader—win the mantle of Lenin and gain leadership of the ruling party? How should Stalin's regime be judged by subsequent generations of Russians, and in the context of world history? In Russian Revolution, 1917-1945, author Anthony D'Agostino discusses all these questions. His suggestions for further reading range over decades of writing on Soviet subjects and cite classics, revisionist works, curiosities, and studies done during and since the Gorbachev years. The book explores topics including the modernization of the Tsarist Russian state, World War I, the revolutionary project of Soviet Communism, the nationalist transformation of Soviet Communism under international pressures, the "Big Drive" to modernize Russia by force, and the external threat of fascism.
Inspirational guide to finding angels and feeling the joy they bring, by looking at the beauty of art, music, poetry, and nature, and seeing the goodness that exists in all people.
The Rise of Global Powers by Anthony D'Agostino Pdf
Does a system of great powers necessarily imply a struggle for world primacy? Do great states merely hold onto what is theirs, or do they reach for more? Anthony D'Agostino offers a fascinating new answer to these questions through a fundamental reassessment of the international history of the first half of the twentieth century. From the spatial limits of a purely European great power politics the book looks out to the new horizon of world politics. From the time limits of 1914 to 1945 it considers the interface with nineteenth-century imperialism at one end and the impact of the world wars on the Cold War at the other. This is a global retelling of the expansion of Europe coming up against its limits in the most violent conflicts and explosive social movements yet known to history, the two world wars, the Great Depression, and the Russian and Chinese revolutions.

Father Damien Karras: 'Where is Regan?' Regan MacNeil: 'In here. With us.' The terror begins unobtrusively. Noises in the attic. In the child's room, an odd smell, the displacement of furniture, an icy chill. At first, easy explanations are offered. Then frightening changes begin to appear in eleven-year-old Regan. Medical tests fail to shed any light on her symptoms, but it is as if a different personality has invaded her body. Father Damien Karras, a Jesuit priest, is called in. Is it possible that a demonic presence has possessed the child? Exorcism seems to be the only answer... First published in 1971, The Exorcist became a literary phenomenon and inspired one of the most shocking films ever made. This edition, polished and expanded by the author, includes new dialogue, a new character and a chilling new extended scene, provides an unforgettable reading experience that has lost none of its power to shock and continues to thrill and terrify new readers.
