Destiny offers the vision of a positive future for humanity and a practical blueprint for how to achieve a sustainable, peaceful, and just global community. At this most important moment in human history, technology is giving us the power to remake the world into a garden of plenty. At the same time, we face dark, existential crises—climate catastrophe, the continuing threat of nuclear weapons, and futile reliance on achieving “security” through military escalation, as examples.

Nowadays, people increasingly subscribe to cultural bubbles that stand in juxtaposition with the ideas of globalization and diversity. This book explores some of the reasons for the resistance to opening up to other cultures and proposes alternatives to cultural isolation, in particular, throughout the K-12 journey of American students.

The purpose of this book, and that of others that will follow in the ARS, is to shed light on certain practices, structures, systems, and institutions that we have adopted in Africa and that we continue to follow, even though they may not be tangibly furthering our progress and development as individuals, as communities, as nations, and as a Continent.

What is love? In poetry, songs, fiction, movies, psychology, and philosophy, love has been described, admired, lamented, and dissected in endless ways. Is love based on physical attraction? Does it bring out our better selves? How does it relate to sex? Is love divine? Plato's Symposium is one of the oldest, most influential, and most profound explorations of such questions—it is even the source of the idea of "Platonic love."

While medicine and science have obviously changed enormously since the classical world, and some Greco-Roman beliefs about diet now appear hilariously off the mark, How to Eat reveals that much of their advice still resonates—and all of it is fascinating.

Imagine this: You’ve just hired someone for a job, but instead of showing initiative, they spend more time scrolling on their phone, wondering why they’re not the boss yet. Or perhaps you’ve seen a viral video of someone celebrated for doing… absolutely nothing. Meanwhile, your own hard work feels undervalued in a culture that rewards mediocrity. Sound familiar? In today’s world, intelligence, skill, and grit seem to take a back seat to viral fame and unearned entitlement. You’re left wondering: When did ambition become a dirty word?

For 2500 years people have been debating how literature changes lives, and versions of those debates continue today in classrooms, school and library boardrooms, and state legislatures. The life-transforming potential of books caught the attention of Dante, Cervantes, Jane Austen, Percy Shelley, and many others. Better Living through Literature surveys what the great thinkers have said on the subject, from Plato and Aristotle to Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud to W. E. B Du Bois, Harold Bloom, and Martha Nussbaum.

In The Shape of Change, Dynamic Materialism and Adaptive Realism are introduced as complementary frameworks that redefine how we understand and navigate the complexities of interconnected systems in a rapidly changing world. Dynamic Materialism emphasizes the material and structural forces that drive systemic behavior, focusing on feedback loops, constraints, and emergent properties that govern the evolution of ecosystems, economies, and technologies.

Com um toque de irreverência, boas histórias e muitos questionamentos, eles falam de temas de ontem, hoje e sempre, que fazem parte do cotidiano de todos nós: justiça, sabedoria, felicidade, bem x mal, ética, educação, liberdade e amizade.
