Book SynopsisLearn how Trump is making America great again—and why government and media elites attack his vision—in this 'inspiring and informative' book from one of his key political advisors (Sean Hannity). Donald Trump is unlike any president we've ever had. The only person ever elected to be commander in chief who has not first held public office or served as a general in the military, Trump's principles grow out of five decades of business and celebrity success—not politics. The president owes his position to the people who believed in him as a candidate, not to the left-wing government and media who have expressed contempt for him since his first day on the campaign trail. Trump has enacted policies and set goals that send our country in a bold new direction—one that is 'unreasonable' to Washington elites but sensible to millions of Americans outside the Beltway.

Little, Brown & Company Trump vs. China: Facing America's Greatest Threat
Book SynopsisEvery American needs to understand the threat to America's safety and prosperity posed by China's reemergence as a world power. Unlike our other economic and military rivals, China is the only country big enough and with enough human resources to compete with us everywhere in the world. From the point of view of Beijing, China has a long history of dominating the world, and the past century of Western dominance is only a temporary blip.Their strategy to overtake America involves using spying, extortion, lawsuits, economic infiltration, intellectual property theft, propaganda and sabotage to weaken the United States and strengthen China. Gingrich's research will show that it is clear Chinese leaders are following this strategy to the letter, and that it is working as planned.It is possible for America to respond to the Chinese effort but doing so will require many big changes and hard choices for our leaders in government and private sector. That is why it is vital to build an understanding of the China challenge so there is consensus and political support to be what must be done.Newt Gingrich's TRUMP VS CHINA will serve as a rallying cry for the American people and a plan of action for our leaders in government and the private sector.

Rowman & Littlefield Publishers Winning the Long War
Book SynopsisWinning the Long War is a trenchant examination of the past seven years of the Global War on Terror, the future battlegrounds that will confront the United States in the struggle against radical Islam in the years ahead, and how America can reclaim the initiative in what has become the defining struggle of the twenty-first century. Middle East expert Ilan Berman offers new thinking on counterterrorism strategy and provides the new administration with ways to close the gaps in current American counterterrorism strategy. While there are many books about fighting terrorism, none offer Berman''s approach of integrating diplomatic, legal, economic, military, and theoretical strategies into a comprehensive national security action plan. Using cutting edge analysis of current terrorism trends, Winning the Long War identifies three central failings that triggered the West''s retreat and radical Islam''s simultaneous advance: the failure to properly define the enemy, the inability to dominate Trade ReviewThe struggle against radical Islam is not limited to al-Qaeda or confined to Afghanistan and Iraq. The enemy is global. The challenge is multi-generational. The outcome remains uncertain. Ilan Berman argues persuasively that our strategic approach must be revisited and the rules of engagement changed. He offers a provocative, insightful, and scholarly blueprint for defeating the enemy in the intellectual, economic, diplomatic, and political theaters of this confrontation. -- Thomas J. Ridge, Former U.S. Secretary of Homeland SecurityBerman is right when he writes that military force alone will not be enough to defeat this enemy; we must also employ economic and ideological tools. Sadly, when we have used these tools, we have usually failed to do so effectively. Winning the Long War shows policymakers across the political spectrum what to do to win this war. -- Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., U.S. Senate Minority WhipBerman’s careful analysis and thoughtful conclusions are a welcome addition to the ongoing debate about the way forward. * Publishers Weekly, May 2009 *Berman offers a complete and coherent strategy for the so-called Long War, a struggle against radical Islam that will last decades. Most importantly, he has put forth a vision for countering our adversaries by demonstrating to their target audience that the jihadist ideology is an illegitimate interpretation of Islam and offers a bankrupt future. Very few writing in this area have tied together all the elements of a successful counter-terrorism strategy—political, diplomatic, law enforcement and especially economic. Berman has. -- Brad Sherman, D-Calif., Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Terrorism, Nonproliferation and TradeIslam is undergoing what once in America was called a 'revival,’ the outcome of which will determine whether the overwhelming majority of moderate Muslims remain so. This global struggle for the heart and soul of Islam bodes fair to change the course of history—and thus far we in the West are losing. In this absorbing and rigorous examination of where we stand in this battle of ideas, Ilan Berman documents an alarming litany of failures on our side. The power of this remarkable book lies, however, in Berman’s prescriptions which, if adopted, are a basis for optimism that it’s not too late. Read it. -- Robert C. McFarlane, Former National Security Advisor to President Ronald ReaganMr. Berman has written a compact, swift-moving book in which he seeks to set the agenda for future strategic frameworks that will better address both the root causes of Islamic radicalism and the ongoing struggles we face with its most dogmatic and violent adherents. Mr. Berman has done great work in identifying the gaps in American strategy and proposing some solutions, and policymakers would do well to consider them. The book does not (nor does it claim to) have all the answers, but it asks all the right questions. -- James S. Robbins * The Washington Times, July 17, 2009 *The book lays out a must-read plan for tackling some of America's thorniest foreign policy challenges. . . . It is an excellent review of the challenges we have faced since the fall of the World Trade Center towers in 2001, and a succinct synopsis of the prevailing diplomatic and military thinking on how ultimately to win the war. -- Jonathan Schanzer, Former US Treasury Intelligence Analyst, Deputy Editor of the Jewish Policy Center * gem *Ilan Berman's new book, Winning the Long War, Retaking the Offensive Against Radical Islam , catalogues American successes and failures to defeat radical Islam post-9/11. In its quiet, meticulously researched way, it is a powerful call to action in the war against radical Islam-especially the war of ideas. * The Huffington Post, October 14, 2009 *Berman's chapter titled "Messaging to the (Muslim) Masses" is a damining, and convincing, indictment of US public diplomacy in the Islamic world. . . . Winning the Long War is a valuable contribution to the policy literature, containing many ideas that merit further discussion and exploration. Moreover, its brevity makes it accessible even for those with little time for reading. It is to be hoped that many policymakers, academics, and others will do so. * Comparative Strategy, October 2009 *Our country has been waiting for a creative yet realistic approach to foreign policy. One Middle East expert, Ilan Berman, has developed a moderate, non-polemic approach with his new book, Winning the Long War: Retaking the Offensive against Radical Islam . . . His suggestions merge military, diplomatic, economic, theoretical, and legal strategy into an easily readable blueprint that outlines the 'vastness' of our national security plan in an ultimately bipartisan manner. . . No matter what your politics are on issues such as national security, you will find that this book actually offers a non-apologist, non-obstructionist view of how the United States may go about winning the long war. I might be too hopeful a citizen, but Berman's thoroughly less militarized approach to the war on terror may help re-establish not only this country's safety, but also perhaps its honor. * The Humanist, November-December 2009 *Ilan Berman . . . goes straight to the philosophical nub of the problem. . . . Mr. Berman provides a compelling argument that it is time for the U.S. to enter the debate, not with a megaphone but with a steady voice, and back its ideas with money and sustained commitment. * The Far Eastern Economic Review, November 2009 *Table of ContentsForeword Introduction Chapter 1.

Rowman & Littlefield Education for Liberation
Book SynopsisAlmost 650,000 men and women, approximately the size of the city of Memphis, TN, return home from prison every year. Oftentimes with some pocket change and a bus ticket, they reenter society and struggle to find work, housing, a supportive social network. Economic barriers, the stigma of a felony conviction, and mental health and addiction challenges make reentry a bleak picture, leading some to return to a life of crime. A Department of Justice study of 404,638 inmates in 30 states released in 2005, for example, identified that 68 percent were rearrested within 3 years and 77 percent within 5 years of release. Education and workforce readiness programs must be central components in better preparing individuals to successfully reenter society and stay out of prison. This book compiles chapters written by individuals on the right and the left of the political spectrum, and within and outside the fields of prison education and reentry that address this need for reform. Chapters feature Trade ReviewThis book highlights why partnerships between correctional leaders and public, private and faith-based organizations matter to the 650,000 men and women that reenter our communities every year. It exemplifies why we must make prisons more rehabilitative places, and how investing in the education and reentry outcomes of incarcerated individuals supports not only them, but their families, and makes our communities safer. -- Craig DeRoche, Senior Vice President of Advocacy and Public Policy, Prison FellowshipPowerfully written and incredibly timely, Education for Liberation provides the dialogue needed to move our country forward in figuring out how to break the destructive cycle of incarceration and re-incarceration.

The bipartisan collection of contributors demonstrates how cross-collaborative efforts can be leveraged to increase the likelihood of post-release success for returning citizens.

House of Anansi Press Ltd ,Canada Should We Tax the Rich More?: The Munk Debate on
Book SynopsisAs middle-class incomes stagnate in advanced economies while the rich experience record income gains, the eleventh semi-annual Munk Debate pits wealth redistribution supporters Paul Krugman and George Papandreou against Newt Gingrich and Arthur Laffer to debate taxation — should the rich pay more? For some the answer is obvious: redistribute the wealth of the top income earners who have enjoyed, for almost a generation, the lion’s share of all income gains. Imposing higher taxes on the wealthy is the best way for countries such as Canada to reinvest in their social safety nets, education, and infrastructure while protecting the middle class. Others argue that anemic economic growth, not income inequality, is the real problem facing advanced countries. In a globalized economy, raising taxes on society’s wealth creators leads to capital flight, falling government revenues, and less money for the poor. These same voices contend that lowering taxes on everyone stimulates innovation and investment, fuelling future prosperity. In this edition of the Munk Debates — Canada’s premier international debate series — Nobel Prize–winning economist Paul Krugman and former Prime Minster of Greece George Papandreou square off against former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Newt Gingrich and famed economist Arthur Laffer to debate if the rich should bear the brunt of higher taxes. For the first time ever, this stimulating debate, which will take place in front of a sold-out audience, will be available in print. With advanced countries facing overextended social services, crumbling infrastructure, and sluggish economic growth, the Munk Debate on economic inequality tackles the essential public policy issue: Should we tax the rich more?
