Depression, Mania, and Psychosis as My Path to Wholeness and Well-Being
Mental health issues are a large part of and embedded in our society, and yet it is continually stigmatized. Furthermore, this stigma can create and reinforce mental health issues in itself. In Depression, Mania, and Psychosis as My Path to Wholeness and Well-Being, Paul Rubin is open and honest about his lived experiences with mental health issues, in hopes as a demonstration to destigmatize what he believes are just human experiences. By being able to openly acknowledge these experiences to ourselves, he believes from his own learning that we can then move forward in our own healing towards a sense of wholeness and well-being. Ever since childhood, Paul became aware of his mental processes...

A Student’s Guide to Socialism
Whenever socialism has been tried, it has led to failure, and often, great human misery. Nonetheless, many young people prefer socialism to capitalism. There are dozens of books and articles explaining the failures of socialism, but these do not seem to have an impact on students. One reason for this may be that the books are written in abstract terms, and do not relate to the lives of the readers. This book takes a different approach. It asks the question, “What will my life be like if I live under socialism?” Professor Paul Rubin—a leading expert on socialism and capitalism—shows that under socialism: • People will be poorer • There will be less freedom • Goods will be of low...
The Capitalism Paradox
In spite of its numerous obvious failures, many presidential candidates and voters are in favor of a socialist system for the United States. Socialism is consistent with our primitive evolved preferences, but not with a modern complex economy. One reason for the desire for socialism is the misinterpretation of capitalism. The standard definition of free market capitalism is that it’s a system based on unbridled competition. But this oversimplification is incredibly misleading—capitalism exists because human beings have organically developed an elaborate system based on trust and collaboration that allows consumers, producers, distributors, financiers, and the rest of the players in the capitalist system to thrive. Paul Rubin, the world’s leading expert on cooperative capitalism, explains simply and powerfully how we should think about markets, economics, and business—making this book an indispensable tool for understanding and communicating the vast benefits the free market bestows upon societies and individuals.

Marxist Political Economy
Geoff Pilling’s work shows that Marxist theory is relevant to those struggling to understand the problems of capitalist society today, and that the work not only of Marx and Engels but that of later Marxist theorists, including Lenin is worth studying. It also shows that to understand the problems of today’s society needs more than narrow specialist economic analysis, but a deep awareness of current developments in society.
