Jews Don't Count is a book for people on the right side of history. People fighting the good fight against homophobia, disablism, transphobia and, particularly, racism. People, possibly, like you. It is the comedian and writer David Baddiel's contention that one type of racism has been left out of this fight. In his unique combination of reasoning, polemic, personal experience and jokes, Baddiel argues that those who think of themselves as on the right side of history have often ignored the history of anti-Semitism. He outlines why and how, in a time of intensely heightened awareness of minorities, Jews don't count as a real minority.

'To begin at the beginning: it is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black...' When Richard Burton breathed the opening words of Under Milk Wood into a microphone, broadcasting history was made. For this 'play for voices' conjures up the intimate dreams and waking lives of the inhabitants of a Welsh seaside village in a remarkable way. It is bawdy and beautiful; its colourful characters lust and love, gossip and fantasise. Through the magic of language, Under Milk Wood creates a rich modern pastoral which, once heard, touches the listener with its poetry and haunts the imagination for ever. This radio drama is the completed version broadcast in 1963 which includes several passages that were omitted from the first recording in 1954.
Desde que empezaron publicarse, las obras de Ayn Rand han tenido un notable impacto en la escena intelectual, política y social. Sus ideas se han discutido con pasión y defendido con ahínco durante más de medio siglo.
En el universo randiano el tema subyacente siempre es la filosofía, con una nueva moralidad que aborda el individualismo, la libertad, y el rechazo a la vocación totalitaria de los estados y a los instintos tiránicos de aquellos que quieren imponernos soluciones colectivistas. Un desafío que todavía hoy sigue vigente y nos amenaza.
Conocida como Objetivismo, su filosofía sostiene que la vida humana —la vida apropiada para un ser racional— es la norma de los valores morales y considera que el colectivismo es incompatible con la naturaleza del hombre.
En esta serie de ensayos escritos a lo largo de varias décadas, Rand se pregunta por qué el hombre necesita la moral. Y, su respuesta, define un nuevo código ético basado en la virtud del egoísmo.
