NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A graphic edition of historian Timothy Snyder’s bestselling book of lessons for surviving and resisting America’s arc toward authoritarianism, featuring the visual storytelling talents of renowned illustrator Nora Krug “Nora Krug has visualized and rendered some of the most valuable lessons of the twentieth century, which will serve all citizens as we shape the future.”—Shepard Fairey, artist and activist Timothy Snyder’s New York Times bestseller On Tyranny uses the darkest moments in twentieth-century history, from Nazism to Communism, to teach twenty lessons on resisting modern-day authoritarianism. Among the twenty include a warning to be aware of how symbols used today could affect tomorrow (“4: Take responsibility for the face of the world”), an urgent reminder to research everything for yourself and to the fullest extent (“11: Investigate”), a point to use personalized and individualized speech rather than clichéd phrases for the sake of mass appeal (“9: Be kind to our language”), and more. In this graphic edition, Nora Krug draws from her highly inventive art style in Belonging—at once a graphic memoir, collage-style scrapbook, historical narrative, and trove of memories—to breathe new life, color, and power into Snyder’s riveting historical references, turning a quick-read pocket guide of lessons into a visually striking rumination. In a time of great uncertainty and instability, this edition of On Tyranny emphasizes the importance of being active, conscious, and deliberate participants in resistance.

*Major New York Times Bestseller *More than 2.6 million copies sold *One of The New York Times Book Review's ten best books of the year *Selected by The Wall Street Journal as one of the best nonfiction books of the year *Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient *Daniel Kahneman's work with Amos Tversky is the subject of Michael Lewis's best-selling The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds In his mega bestseller, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman, world-famous psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The impact of overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives—and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Topping bestseller lists for almost ten years, Thinking, Fast and Slow is a contemporary classic, an essential book that has changed the lives of millions of readers.

The book is packed with local information along the way, invaluable for first-timers unfamiliar with the route or one who has driven the route for many years. Containing no adverts or commercial information, the book makes getting there half the fun - local knowledge, "Insider" & $$$ Saving tips, lodging & restaurant recommendations and mile-by-mile roadside stories of history, geography, geology, flora & fauna - to entertain you and your family along your way. Each of the book's 25 mile-per-page colored strip-maps takes an average of 30 minutes to drive, providing a sense of pacing for your trip - excellent for pre-trip planning or estimating your night stops while on route. The South and Northbound map pages are intuitive - map reading skills are not required. Each 25 mile map is designed to "fit" your direction of travel. As you "drive up" the page in your car, landmarks and features drawn on the right side of the map pass on the right side of your vehicle ... and vice versa. The laminated wrap-around cover and book mark flap has been designed for easy in-car use. A concealed plastic coil binding allows the book to be easily folded back to display the current road map. The book features * 78 colored 25 mile road strip maps (39 for each direction of travel) * 106 colored maps (side-trips and towns) * 196 colored photos * 67 b&w maps and photos * 105 charts and diagrams * 72 restaurant and money-saving tips * and 24 Special Interest reports. Bonus: Once purchased, we keep Along I-75's contents updated through a free and exclusive, "reader's only" Information & Update website. Since driving guides rapidly go out of date after purchase, we regularly post all significant changes, major construction sites and any detour details to this website - for the life of the book. The site also includes a full topical index, town/city maps and other items which could not be included in the printed version of the book. Arguably, we may be the only travel book publisher, providing this level of service to its readers.
