Dan Wang is a research fellow at Stanford University's Hoover History Lab, and previously a fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center. Before that, he was an analyst focused on China's technology capabilities at Gavekal Dragonomics, based across Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai. Dan is perhaps best known for a series of annual letters, published between 2017-2023, which encapsulate his reflections on Chinese society; his writing has also appeared in other outlets including Foreign Affairs, The Atlantic, The New York Times, and beyond. In this New Books Network Episode, Dan discusses his debut book Breakneck: China's Quest to Engineer the Future (Norton, 2025). Styled as an aggregation of seven of his famed annual letters, Breakneck presents a dichotomy of China and the US as an “engineering state” and "lawyerly society” respectively, and traces how China's “engineering state” has shaped Chinese society over the last decade. Breakneck is now available for purchase online and in physical bookstores.

FASHION IS CIVILIZATION. 1/4: Liberty Equality Fashion: The Women Who Styled the French Revolution Hardcover – by Anne Higonnet (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Liberty-Equality-Fashion-Styled-Revolution/dp/0393867951 Joséphine Bonaparte, future Empress of France; Térézia Tallien, the most beautiful woman in Europe; and Juliette Récamier, muse of intellectuals, had nothing left to lose. After surviving incarceration and forced incestuous marriage during the worst violence of the French Revolution of 1789, they dared sartorial revolt. Together, Joséphine and Térézia shed the underwear cages and massive, rigid garments that women had been obliged to wear for centuries. They slipped into light, mobile dresses, cropped their hair short, wrapped themselves in shawls, and championed the handbag. Juliette made the new style stand for individual liberty. The erotic audacity of these fashion revolutionaries conquered Europe, starting with Napoleon. Everywhere a fashion magazine could reach, women imitated the news coming from Paris. It was the fastest and most total change in clothing history. Two centuries ahead of its time, it was rolled back after only a decade by misogynist rumors of obscene extravagance. New evidence allows the real fashion revolution to be told. This is a story for our time: of a revolution that demanded universal human rights, of self-creation, of women empowering each other, and of transcendent glamor 120+ full color illustrations throughout 1789

The story of Micah and the tribe of Dan in Judges 17-18 illustrates a dark period in Israel's history where "every man did that which is right in his own eyes." Pastor Dorrell examines this sobering narrative of stolen silver, household idols, and a priest-for-hire to reveal the profound dangers of a faith based on personal convenience. This message challenges us to consider our own motives, asking whether our spiritual lives are truly guided by the authority of Scripture or if we have created a customized Christianity that suits our personal preferences.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

A year ago, I was right on the edge.Smiling. Hopeful. Nervous as hell. I had just started my business. My marriage was shifting in big, uncomfortable ways. I had a closet full of cute outfits but still didn't feel at home in my body.And even though I looked like I had it together, I was scared to be seen. Really seen.Since then? I've said yes to the wildest invitations life had for me. I've walked through sacred plant medicine journeys that cracked me open in ways I can't unsee. I've sat with the hard truths in my relationship—and started telling the truth in all the places I used to stay quiet.And somewhere in the middle of all that unraveling... I stopped hiding.In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my personal evolution over the past year: → what shifted in my energy → how I moved from self-conscious to self-led → what it really took to become the woman I am now (and why it wasn't just about outfits or confidence—but about truth, nervous system healing, and full-body reclamation)If you're standing on the cusp of your own becoming—this one's for you.

Hey friend! Have you ever wondered what what REALLY goes into having a well styled home - like all those pretty pictures you see on Instagram or Pinterest? Yes...cohesiveness matters. Yes...being in tune with your design style is important. Yes...finding and buying the right things can pull a room together. What's really at the heart of a well styled home? These 5 elements: 1. Proportion/scale/balance: Not too big, not too small. Things that fit and fit appropriately from ground up, wall inward. 2. Textured lighting: Forget the overhead lighting and opt for layered lighting - table lamps and floor lamps that work harmoniously to cast a cozy glow. 3. Layers & texture: intentionality in home design is ensconced in all the layers! 4. Repetition: the goldilocks rule applies here. Not too much repetition and not too little - just enough. The more subtle the repetition of design elements the better! 5. Negative space: even artists and photographers employ the idea of having negative space in their compositions. The same is true in our homes. Negative space allows your home to shine with all of the intentional decisions you've made. Join THE COLLECTIVE Have a question YOU want answered on the show?

3/4: Liberty Equality Fashion: The Women Who Styled the French Revolution Hardcover – by Anne Higonnet (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Liberty-Equality-Fashion-Styled-Revolution/dp/0393867951 Joséphine Bonaparte, future Empress of France; Térézia Tallien, the most beautiful woman in Europe; and Juliette Récamier, muse of intellectuals, had nothing left to lose. After surviving incarceration and forced incestuous marriage during the worst violence of the French Revolution of 1789, they dared sartorial revolt. Together, Joséphine and Térézia shed the underwear cages and massive, rigid garments that women had been obliged to wear for centuries. They slipped into light, mobile dresses, cropped their hair short, wrapped themselves in shawls, and championed the handbag. Juliette made the new style stand for individual liberty. The erotic audacity of these fashion revolutionaries conquered Europe, starting with Napoleon. Everywhere a fashion magazine could reach, women imitated the news coming from Paris. It was the fastest and most total change in clothing history. Two centuries ahead of its time, it was rolled back after only a decade by misogynist rumors of obscene extravagance. New evidence allows the real fashion revolution to be told. This is a story for our time: of a revolution that demanded universal human rights, of self-creation, of women empowering each other, and of transcendent glamor 120+ full color illustrations throughout 1812 Madam Hortense Beauharnais in Revolution fasshion

Andrew Browning and the 9 Pound Hammers dive into the raw, gritty landscapes of California with their upcoming album, Love is a Beautiful Thing, set for release on November 22nd. With a sound steeped in the raw energy of '70s rock and Americana, and storytelling that echoes the messiness of real life, this album brings listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of love, framed by Browning's distinctly Californian lens. The lead single, “Econoline,” kicks off this journey with electrifying energy, capturing the untamed spirit of life on the road. It's a raucous anthem that blends hard-driving guitar riffs with evocative lyrics, telling tales of roaming, survival, and finding moments of warmth and love in the most unexpected places. Love is a Beautiful Thing the groups latest release stands as a testament to Andrew Browning's evolution as an artist, bringing together his love for narrative songwriting with his Californian rock influences. Since their inception, Andrew Browning and the 9 Pound Hammers have been known for creating a sound that is uniquely theirs—gritty, narrative-driven, and unapologetically raw.
