The Quotable Atheist
Surprisingly, no book of quotations on God and religion by atheists and agnostics exists. Luckily, for the millions of American nonbelievers who have quietly stewed for years as the religious right made gains in politics and culture, the wait is over. Bestselling author Jack Huberman's zeitgeist sense has honed into the backlash building against religious fundamentalism and collected a veritable treasure trove of quotes by philosophers, scientists, poets, writers, artists, entertainers, and political figures. His colorful cast of atheists includes Karen Armstrong, Lance Armstrong, Jules Feiffer, Federico Fellini, H. L. Mencken, Ian McKellen, Isaac Singer, Jonathan Swift, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Virginia Woolf and the Marquis de Sade.
100 People Who Are Screwing Up America
The number one New York Times bestselling author of Bias delivers another bombshell—this time aimed at . . . 100 People Who Are Screwing Up America No preaching. No pontificating. Just some uncommon sense about the things that have made this country great—and the culprits who are screwing it up. Bernard Goldberg takes dead aim at the America Bashers (the cultural elites who look down their snobby noses at "ordinary" Americans) . . . the Hollywood Blowhards (incredibly ditzy celebrities who think they're smart just because they're famous) . . . the TV Schlockmeisters (including the one whose show has been compared to a churning mass of maggots devouring rotten meat) . . . the Intellectual...
Jack
What's in a name? Juliet doubted its importance in the matter of her Romeo, but we know what happened to them. Names are important. And first names particularly. People react to them even before meeting their bearers. Parents agonise over their choice. Children agonise over it, too. Small wonder when you remember the challenging time laid on by his dad for the boy named Sue. Jack, though. Always popular, it has become one of the most common names throughout the English-speaking world over the last 25 years, topping lists in most countries. But how much do all these new Jacks know about their name? Charles Nevin has explored history, folklore, legend and fiction to emerge with an enthralling ...
Bushit!
Bushit is the book that Jack Huberman hoped he would never have to write. The author of the hugely successful Bush-Hater's Handbook became an American citizen in order to vote against the loathed administration of Dubya and his cronies. This time, Bush managed what he had failed to achieve in 2000, and did win the election. Huberman reacted to this calamitous news by writing a new, indispensable guide for concerned citizens everywhere. Moving from A through Z, Bushit explores with vitriol and humor the lows of Bush 2004. From the cynical manipulation by the Christian right of the Terry Schiavo tragedy to the alarming rise of the moral values mantra, from the corruption of DeLay to the mean-spiritedness of the bankruptcy bill, from corporate malfeasance to Martha Stewart, Deficit Attention Disorder to Creationism, Bushit catalogues the outrages and scandals of an administration that appears unwilling or unable to learn from the mistakes and deceits of its first term.
Odd Couple
It has become commonplace to think that globalization has produced a race to the bottom in terms of labor standards and quality of life: the cheaper the labor and the lower the benefits afforded workers, the more competitively a country can participate on the global stage. But in this book the distinguished economic historian Michael Huberman demonstrates that globalization has in fact been very good for workers’ quality of life, and that improved labor conditions have promoted globalization.

The authors boldly depart from the...
