Army veteran Graham Allen, one of today's most popular conservative voices, pulls no punches as he lays out the future and strategy of a movement to save America.President Trump's 2024 election marked the greatest political comeback in American history, halting left-wing efforts to fundamentally transform the United States. But in his most important book yet, Graham Allen makes clear that the fight is far from over. As Trump passes the baton to a new generation of fighters, the battle for America's future is only just beginning.In this unapologetic but forward-looking political manifesto, Graham examines the most critical issues facing the nation and argues that we are engaged not only in a political struggle, but in a spiritual battle for our future.He also explores the revival taking root across the country in the wake of the martyrdom of his friend Charlie Kirk and explains how to carry on the torch.Ultimately, Graham shows readers how to:- Stand: Refuse to bow to cultural bullies, left-wing media activists, and political elites who believe they own this country.- Fight: Not with blind rage, but with conviction, courage, organization, and faith-at the ballot box, in your community, in your church, and in your home.- Win: Not just elections, but hearts and minds-reclaiming a future where America is once again the greatest force for freedom the world has ever known. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2008

The 21st-century has witnessed rapid advances in artificial intelligence, giving rise to a society at once hopeful but also mistrustful of the possibilities that this technology offers. Our hopes and anxieties have played out across a variety of media in recent times, but arguably nowhere more significantly than on our screens.This book explores a phenomenon, which it calls the new AI cinema and television, arguing that since the mid-2010s, a distinctly new phase in the representation of AI has occurred. Discussing films such as Blade Runner 2049, Ex Machina and Ghost in the Shell alongside television series such as Westworld and Humans, it argues that they have moved away from apocalyptic scenarios towards questions of personhood, consciousness, and social inclusion and exclusion. In doing so, it intervenes in some of today's most pressing debates, including gender representation, AI ethics, climate catastrophe, and the rights of artificially intelligent beings. - E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2025

Graham Allen, a U.S. Army veteran and a rising star in the conservative movement, makes the case that the United States should look to the country as it was on September 12th, 2001 for lessons about our future. On the day after the World Trade Center was attacked, Americans came together regardless of color, religion, or sexual orientation. We were united. On that day, nearly every store in the country sold out of American flags.After the events of the last eighteen months, from the Covid-19 pandemic to the constant attempts to divide us by race, Graham Allen believes that we should all look back on the events of 9/12 and remember what unites us. He believes that we do not all have to be the same, that it's okay not to agree on everything, but that we share a common history and a set of values.Just as the year 1776 serves as a reminder of our beginning, 9/12 will serve as a reminder of our present and future. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2011
