Book Description
Albert Tang was only five years old, but he can still vividly recall that day in 1970 when he opened the front door to his home in Cambodia. He saw a group of armed soldiers had arrived to guard the perimeter of the school where he and his family lived. This signaled the beginning of the Cambodian civil war—as well as the atrocities and genocide by dictator Pol Pot’s communist regime. In this memoir, Albert provides the perspective of a young boy who witnessed the brutal Khmer Rouge in action and who suffered under the communists. Their actions not only devastated the adults living under the regime but also the children who were robbed of the opportunity to go to school. Many Cambodians fled their country and became refugees in Thailand. Many of them never returned home. But with determination, perseverance, a positive attitude, hard work, and some luck, some of these refugees found the chance to start a new life. Join Albert as he shares an inspiring story of endurance, courage, and hope in The Road to Freedom.

Book Description
THE attempt to conceive imaginatively a better ordering of human society than the destructive and cruel chaos in which mankind has hitherto existed is by no means modern: it is at least as old as Plato, whose "Republic" set the model for the Utopias of subsequent philosophers. Whoever contemplates the world in the light of an ideal - whether what he seeks be intellect, or art, or love, or simple happiness, or all together - must feel a great sorrow in the evils that men needlessly allow to continue, and - if he be a man of force and vital energy - an urgent desire to lead men to the realization of the good which inspires his creative vision. It is this desire which has been the primary force moving the pioneers of Socialism and Anarchism, as it moved the inventors of ideal commonwealths in the past. In this there is nothing new. What is new in Socialism and Anarchism, is that close relation of the ideal to the present sufferings of men, which has enabled powerful political movements to grow out of the hopes of solitary thinkers.

Book Description
First published in 1996. Bertrand Russell wrote after the dawning of the Russian Revolution, at the time when Europe seemed on the verge of political dissolution. In this powerful work of political and social analysis Russell examines the main roads to freedom that we have constructed for ourselves since the nineteenth century. He discusses the great Utopian and egalitarian movements, ranging from the most moderate and democratic guise of Socialism to the most fanatical embodiment of Anarchism.

Book Description
Mark Landsing is a student in a small northwestern community where his only claim to fame is being a go-fer, a clean-up boy for the football team. One day, one of his classmates, a new kid in town, a bully, goes missing after an altercation with the star quarterback where he nearly breaks the star's neck in a fight. Several days after his disappearance, Mark is strolling down by the river when he comes across the boy's murdered body, hidden in his car under some brush. The police are summoned and while Mark awaits their arrival, he comes across a vital clue that will later enable him to identify the killer, someone that would never be suspected of cold blooded murder. A friend. Presented with the dilemma, does he expose the friend to the authorities or keep the secret?
