    A leader in the data economy explains how we arrived at AI—and how we can navigate its future. 
     
     
     
    In The Datapreneurs, Bob Muglia helps us understand how innovation in data and information technology have led us to AI—and how this technology must shape our future. The long-time Microsoft executive, former CEO of Snowflake, and current tech investor maps the evolution of the modern data stack and how it has helped build today's economy and society. And he explains how humanity must create a new social contract for the artificial general intelligence (AGI)—autonomous machines intelligent as people—that he expects to arrive in less than a decade. 
     
     
     
    Muglia details his personal experience in the foundational years of computing and data analytics, including with Bill Gates and Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, and others that are not household names—yet. He builds upon Isaac Asimov's Laws of Robotics to explore the moral, ethical, and legal implications of today's smart machines, and how a combination of human and machine intelligence could create an era of progress and prosperity where all the people on Earth can have what they need and want without destroying our natural environment.

    An expansive and accessible account of anarchism as a theory of practice. 
     
     
     
    Means and Ends is a new overview of the revolutionary strategy of anarchism in Europe and the United States between 1868 and 1939. Zoe Baker clearly and accessibly explains the ideas that historical anarchists developed in order to change the world. This includes their views on direct action, revolution, organization, state socialism, reforms, and trade unions. Throughout, she demonstrates that the reasons anarchists gave for supporting or opposing particular strategies were grounded in a theoretical framework—a theory of practice—which maintained that, as people engage in activity, they simultaneously change the world and themselves. This theoretical framework was the foundation for the anarchist commitment to the unity of means and ends: the means that revolutionaries propose to achieve social change have to involve forms of activity which transform people into individuals who are capable of, and driven to, both overthrow capitalism and the state and build a free society. The consistent heart of anarchism was the idea that anarchist ends can only be achieved through anarchist means. Cutting through misconceptions and historical inaccuracies, Baker draws upon a vast assortment of examples to show how this simple premise underpinned anarchist attempts to put theory into action.

    Sustainable living has become one of the most widely discussed topics in modern society. From eco-friendly products and renewable energy to ethical farming and carbon offsetting, the idea of reducing environmental impact has been embraced by individuals, corporations, and governments alike. The push for sustainability is often framed as a moral responsibility—one that promises a better future for the planet and future generations. But beneath the surface of these well-intentioned efforts lies a reality that is far more complex than most people realize.  
      
    This book challenges the widely accepted belief that sustainable living is always beneficial and without trade-offs. While reducing waste, conserving energy, and making mindful consumption choices are undoubtedly valuable, many so-called “green” solutions are not as effective—or as ethical—as they seem. In some cases, the environmental costs of these initiatives may be just as damaging, if not worse, than the problems they aim to solve. The truth is that sustainability has become a multi-billion-dollar industry, driven by marketing strategies that capitalize on people’s desire to do good.  
      
    Consider the rise of organic farming. While it is often marketed as a superior alternative to conventional agriculture, it requires significantly more land to produce the same amount of food, contributing to deforestation and biodiversity loss. Similarly, electric vehicles are widely praised as the key to a cleaner future, yet their production depends on intensive mining for lithium and rare earth metals, which comes with severe environmental and human rights concerns. Even recycling, which many believe to be a simple and effective way to reduce waste, has its own limitations, as much of what is intended for recycling never actually gets repurposed.

    Risqué Business serves up the breastaurant industry, where food service, sex appeal, identity, and gender politics mix. 
    Risqué Business explores the rise and ongoing cultural reckoning of "breastaurants": sports bar–style restaurants like Hooters and Twin Peaks, which have long relied on the sexualized presentation of female servers to attract a mostly straight, male clientele. Ty Matejowsky, professor of anthropology at the University of Central Florida, is uniquely positioned in America's foundational, breastaurant-saturated landscape. From this vantage, he offers a well-balanced account that draws on pop culture, media analysis, and contemporary gender politics. He delivers a smart, layered analysis of how breastaurants commodify youth and femininity, uphold retrograde masculinity, and serve as symbolic battlegrounds in today's highly charged political environments, including America's deeply polarized Red State/Blue State divide. 
    With case studies, cultural critique, and a critical lens on labor and sexuality, Matejowsky reveals how these restaurants are more than just risqué marketing gimmicks. They reflect deeper anxieties about gender, identity, and the uneasy fusion of sex and service in American consumer culture. Risqué Business is a high-spirited study of an industry that thrives at the intersection of appetite and identity.
