Dignity and Decency
The freedom movement has taught countless people that human society does not need monarchs, politicians, bureaucrats, presidents, or government functionaries to operate. It has taught everyone that ideas should be accessible to the masses and that no one should have a monopoly on information. At its heart, this is what Dignity & Decency is about. Dignity and Decency is about unleashing the courage to challenge the status quo. Dignity & Decency is about sedition and treason, but also about warmth and compassion. Reviews: "Anarchy isn't about wearing masks or throwing bombs. It's about treating others with dignity and decency. For those lucky enough to know him, Sterlin Lujan has already been showing us by example. Now the rest of us can learn directly from his words collected in one place. Dignity and Decency is a great place to start for anyone interested in using voluntary human interaction to build a better world." -Roger Ver "In Dignity and Decency, Sterlin reminds those familiar with his work why his message is so memorable and so necessary at this moment. Readers who are new to his writing will have the joy of discovering his vision of compassionate anarchism - a world where rationality, morality, psychedelics, and anarchism collide. This collection introduces his insatiable desire to reduce violence and promote peace while offering practical solutions to those who can feel that something is amiss in our world. Sterlin has an inimitable ability to communicate the message of anarchism, simplify the intricacies of cryptocurrency, and explain the psychology of spanking in a way that tends to build bridges and open hearts. The world is better thanks to his articulations of the concepts of liberty." -Derrick Broze Publisher's note for the printed edition: in order to be more enjoyable during reading, this book is in 6" x 9" format.

Raw Thought, Raw Nerve

In late 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded a large number of academic journal articles through MIT's computer network. At the time, Aaron was a research fellow at Harvard University, which provided him with an authorized account. Aaron's motivation for downloading the articles was never fully determined. However, friends and colleagues reported that Aaron's intention was either to publicly share them on the Internet or uncover corruption in the funding of climate change research. Faced with prosecutors being overzealous and a dysfunctional US criminal justice system, Aaron was charged with a maximum penalty of $1 million in fines and 35 years in prison, leading to a two-year legal battle with the US federal government that ended when Aaron took his own life on January 11, 2013. Aaron taught himself to read when he was three. At twelve, he created a user-generated encyclopedia, which he later likened to an early version of Wikipedia. He then turned his computer genius to political organizing, information sharing and online freedom. Aaron was on to making a better world for us all; a freer world. Raw Thought, Raw Nerve: Inside the Mind of Aaron Swartz contains the life's work of one of the most original minds of our time.
Bringing the World Home

Bringing the World Home sheds new light on China’s vibrant cultural life between 1895 and 1919—a crucial period that marks a watershed between the conservative old regime and the ostensibly iconoclastic New Culture of the 1920s. Although generally overlooked in the effort to understand modern Chinese history, the era has much to teach us about cultural accommodation and is characterized by its own unique intellectual life. This original and probing work traces the most significant strands of the new post-1895 discourse, concentrating on the anxieties inherent in a complicated process of cultural transformation. It focuses principally on how the need to accommodate the West was reflected in such landmark novels of the period as Wu Jianren’s Strange Events Eyewitnessed in the Past Twenty Years and Zhu Shouju’s Tides of the Huangpu, which began serial publication in Shanghai in 1916. The negative tone of these narratives contrasts sharply with the facile optimism that characterizes the many essays on the "New Novel" appearing in the popular press of the time. Neither iconoclasm nor the wholesale embrace of the new could square the contradicting intellectual demands imposed by the momentous alternatives presenting themselves.
