Описание: In June 2013, reporter and political commentator Glenn Greenwald published a series of reports in the Guardian which rocked the world.
The reports revealed shocking truths about the extent to which the National Security Agency had been gathering information about US citizens and intercepting communication worldwide, and were based on documents leaked by former National Security Agency employee Edward Snowden to Greenwald.
Including new revelations from documents entrusted to Greenwald by Snowden, this essential book tells the story of Snowden and the NSA and examines the far-reaching consequences of the government's surveillance program, both in the US and abroad.

But after a life-changing summer at camp, Ari feels torn between Kaylan and her camp friends. And as she faces down everything from boys to bat mitzvahs, Ari needs to figure out how to be her best self--before her friends come together at her thirteenth birthday party.
Or the big win she and Kaylan were hoping for may become an epic fail.
Описание: Jeff Greenwald's classic travelogue takes the reader on a journey across the Himalayan peaks and through the rustic lanes of Kathmandu in search of the "perfect" Buddha statue. At turns hilarious and moving, his quest features a cast of amazing characters--from a passionate palmist to a flying lama --who provide unforgettable glimpses into the daily life and culture of the former kingdom (including a wild rise on Kathmandu's very first escalator). Nor does Greenwald shy away from Shangri-la's darker side. Along with colorful descriptions of Hindu and Buddhist mythology, the book tells of the rampant corruption, art smuggling, assassination attempts and human right abuses that would ignite Nepal's violent "People Power" Revolution in April 1990. (The subject of Greenwald's most recent book, "Snake Lake.") A new Afterword by the author recounts Nepal's tumultuous recent history--including the massacre of the Royal Family--in vivid detail. And a new Preface introduces this 25th Anniversary Edition with some thoughts about how Nepal, and travel writing, have evolved since the book's first publication. Winner of the Lowell Thomas Gold Award for Best Travel Book, "Shopping for Buddhas" remains a must-read for anyone who has visited, or plans to visit, Nepal.

Описание:
Daughters of 1968 is the story of French feminism between 1944 and 1981, when feminism played a central political role in the history of France. The key women during this epoch were often leftists committed to a materialist critique of society and were part of a postwar tradition that produced widespread social change, revamping the workplace and laws governing everything from abortion to marriage.
The May 1968 events—with their embrace of radical individualism and antiauthoritarianism—triggered a break from the past, and the women’s movement split into two strands. One became universalist and intensely activist, the other particularist and less activist, distancing itself from contemporary feminism. This theoretical debate manifested itself in battles between women and organizations on the streets and in the courts.
The history of French feminism is the history of women’s claims to individualism and citizenship that had been granted their male counterparts, at least in principle, in 1789. Yet French women have more often donned the mantle of particularism, advancing their contributions as mothers to prove their worth as citizens, than they have thrown it off, claiming absolute equality. The few exceptions, such as Simone de Beauvoir or the 1970s activists, illustrate the diversity and tensions within French feminism, as France moved from a corporatist and tradition-minded country to one marked by individualism and modernity.
