Resumen del Editor
Why is it no longer worth it to go to college? In this book, you will learn why.
Conducting original research into the rising costs and falling quality of higher education in the US, Professor Braus discovered that there are almost zero new colleges started in the United States, and this lack of new colleges coincided exactly with rising tuition and falling educational quality.
To understand more, Professor Braus dug into the data and started to interview the struggling founders of new non-profit colleges and their lawyers, accreditors, and professors. He discovered the fascinating, untold history of innovation in higher education in the United States. He met and learned the stories of new college founders and their teams who tried to start non-profit colleges but who were shut out or shut down by the corrupt system of private accreditation. He learned that in America today, the system is rigged against even a qualified person trying to start a non-profit college.
Professor Braus now believes the solution to freeing the American mind from the twin crises of rising costs and falling quality in higher education lies in enabling people to start new and innovative non-profit colleges.

It’s not just you. Stress levels are at an all-time high—so much so that a recently convened panel of medical experts in the US has recommended that all adults under the age of 65 be screened for anxiety. In How to Release Anxiety, Gabby Bernstein offers simple, actionable steps for feeling better, living with more ease, and showing up for those around us. Gabby’s unusual advice: Rather than manage your anxiety, what if you befriended it? Gabby posits that what we befriend, we can ultimately be at ease with. So she invites us to get curious.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck. As you will learn, there is a recipe for success, and luck may be the least important ingredient in creating a best seller. No one has cracked the code better than James Scott Bell. A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.
