Political strategists Stan Greenberg and Doug Schoen were Zeligs of the international center-left, with an eerie talent for showing up at just the right moment to see history being made.

But it grew out of a deeper conflict, a clash of political visions that raised fundamental questions about democracy itself, as electorates that were once divided by economics are now more likely to split along cultural lines. 'Left Adrift' is about that battle?and the world it made.

$150 donation. The most urgent story in modern tech begins not in Silicon Valley but two hundred years ago in rural England, when workers known as the Luddites rose up rather than starve at the hands of factory owners who were using automated machines to erase their livelihoods. The Luddites organized guerrilla raids to smash those machines?on punishment of death?and won the support of Lord Byron, enraged the Prince Regent, and inspired the birth of science fiction. This all-but-forgotten class struggle brought nineteenth-century England to its knees. Today, technology imperils millions of jobs, robots are crowding factory floors, and artificial intelligence will soon pervade every aspect of our economy. Brian Merchant intertwines a lucid examination of our current age with the story of the Luddites, showing how automation changed our world?and is shaping our future.

$160 donation. Contrary to the teachings of the church today, in the first several centuries of Christianity's existence, there was no consensus as to who Jesus was or why he had mattered. Instead, there were many different Christs. One had a twin brother and traveled to India; another consorted with dragons. One particularly terrifying Christ scorned his parents and killed those who opposed him. Moreover, in the early years of the first millennium there were many other saviors, many sons of gods who healed the sick and cured the lame. But as Christianity spread, they were pronounced unacceptable ? even heretical ? and they faded from view. In 'Heretic,' Catherine Nixey unearths the different versions of Christ who existed in the minds of early Christians, and the process of evolution?and elimination?by which Jesus became the singular figure we know today.
