Educator and neuroscientist Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath reveals why digital tools in school consistently undermine learning--and what parents, teachers, and schools can do to push back with purpose. Our children are struggling. Schools, once alive with deep learning born of human connection, are now dominated by screens and digital tools. The result is unmistakable: falling performance, fractured attention, and the slow erosion of rigorous thought. For the first time in the history of standardized cognitive measurement, children are consistently scoring lower on key measures of cognitive development. We were told that classroom technology was progress. It wasn't. In The Digital Delusion, neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath shows how the widespread use of laptops, tablets, and educational software in classrooms is quietly undermining how children learn, think, and develop. Drawing on decades of neuroscience and education research, Horvath dismantles the core myths driving

When Kiss Me, Kate premiered in its first try-out performance, its future was anything but certain. Conceived and staged in just nine months of intense, sometimes chaotic collaboration, the show was a bold experiment: a backstage musical built around a Shakespearean comedy. But once the reviews rolled in, all doubts vanished. The production was a triumph, becoming the most successful stage work of both Cole Porter and the writing duo Sam and Bella Spewack. Yet Kiss Me, Kate has never been without controversy. At its heart, the show is a backstage comedy built around a play-within-a-play adaptation of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. That choice has long invited scrutiny. From its earliest performances to its most recent revivals, Kiss Me, Kate has sparked discussion about adaptation, gender politics, and the evolving tastes of audiences. From its 1948 debut to its 75th anniversary revival, the musical has been both celebrated and critiqued, reflecting shifting cultural attitudes

Each chapter illuminates how artists from Latin America, the Caribbean, and their diasporas have transformed this ubiquitous commodity into a complex visual metaphor that speaks

Dribbling Divides: Football, Islam, and Identity offers a compelling view of how global football intersects with Muslim identity, faith, and politics in an era shaped by migration, digital media, and rising populism. Drawing from rich case studies of elite Muslim footballers, this book examines how players navigate racism, Islamophobia, and national belonging while maintaining visible piety and engaging in activism. From fasting on match days to taking public stands on global Muslim issues, these athletes challenge dominant narratives about loyalty, integration, and modernity. Sociologist Kamaludeen Nasir brings a unique perspective as both a football fan and a scholar, offering insights into the lived realities of Muslim players in Europe, the Middle East, and beyond. He unpacks how club ownership, digital performance, gender politics, and faith-based practices shape the contemporary sporting landscape. By shifting the analytical gaze from fans to players, Dribbling Divides invites re
