Profiles in Courage: JFK's Pultizer Prize-Winning Classic

John F. Kennedy

THE PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING CLASSIC OF POLITICAL INTEGRITY With a foreword by Robert F. Kennedy and introduction by Caroline Kennedy John F. Kennedy’s enduring classic resounds with timeless lessons on leadership and the most cherished of virtues―courage and patriotism―and remains a moving, powerful, and relevant testament to the indomitable American spirit. During 1954-55, Kennedy, then a junior senator from the state of Massachusetts, profiled eight American patriots, mainly United States Senators, who at crucial moments in our nation’s history, revealed a special sort of greatness: men who, in an ultimate act of moral courage, disregarded dreadful consequences to their public and private lives to do that one thing which seemed right in itself. They were men of various political and regional allegiances―their one overriding loyalty was to the United States. Courage such as these men shared, Kennedy makes clear, is central to all morality―a man does what he must in spite of personal consequences―and these exciting stories of American history suggest that, without in the least disparaging the courage with which men die, we should not overlook the true greatness adorning those acts of courage with which men must live. As Robert F. Kennedy writes in the foreword, Profiles in Courage "is not just stories of the past but a book of hope and confidence for the future. What happens to the country, to the world, depends on what we do with what others have left us." This special "P.S." edition of the book commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the book's publication. It includes vintage photographs and an extensive author biography, and features Kennedy's correspondence about the writing project, contemporary reviews of the book, a letter from Ernest Hemingway, and two rousing speeches from recipients of the Profile in Courage Award, making it an essential volume for any fan of John F. Kennedy. What makes a leader risk everything for what they believe is right? Principled Stands: Discover the stories of eight United States Senators who, at pivotal moments, chose national interest over party loyalty and personal ambition. A Study in Leadership: Written by JFK during his own senatorial career, this book offers a unique and personal exploration of what it means to lead in times of crisis. Presidential Biography: Gain insight into the principles that guided a future president, with a foreword by Robert F. Kennedy and a new introduction by Caroline Kennedy. A Pulitzer Prize-Winning Classic: Explore the special "P.S." edition of this celebrated work, featuring vintage photographs, author correspondence, and a letter from Ernest Hemingway.

Altered Carbon (Takeshi Kovacs)

Richard K. Morgan

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW AN EXCITING SERIES FROM NETFLIX • The shell that blew a hole in his chest was only the beginning in this “tour de force of genre-bending, a brilliantly realized exercise in science fiction.”— The New York Times Book Review In the twenty-fifth century, humankind has spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person’s consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or “sleeve”) making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen. Ex-U.N. envoy Takeshi Kovacs has been killed before, but his last death was particularly painful. Dispatched one hundred eighty light-years from home, re-sleeved into a body in Bay City (formerly San Francisco, now with a rusted, dilapidated Golden Gate Bridge), Kovacs is thrown into the dark heart of a shady, far-reaching conspiracy that is vicious even by the standards of a society that treats “existence” as something that can be bought and sold.
