Cities were crushed by the falling spacecraft—but one ship didn’t crash. It remained intact, and disgorged hordes of alien soldiers determined to fight to the death. The abandoned vessels also contained a wealth of advanced technology. Led by David Levinson, the greatest minds of our world developed deadly new hybrid weapons. Bases were built on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. A new generation of defenders had to be trained, for the invaders would return. In the headlong rush to prepare, however, not everyone would survive…

Early review."Good look at the Levinson family. They really played a key role in the War of 1996. I always wanted to know more details! David got a 36 of 36 on the ACT test? Cool. I truly enjoyed reading this book."Here it is my dear friends. This is probably the greatest story ever told by someone (me) who had a front row seat to the most historic events of the War of 1996.Read how the aliens surprised all of us on July 2, 1996.Then read how we launched a counterstrike against the alien race. This book contains up close and personal stories of David Levinson, my son, and the man who planned our successful counterstrike.This book takes you along to never-before-told stories of some of the behind-the-scenes thinking of President Thomas Whitmore as well as Gen. William Grey. There were 48 hours of planning at Area 51 that we used to save the world. Yes, I had a main role in that and you can read all about it in "How I saved the World."This book contains the action and drama of the War of 1996 and how David and I escaped New York and Washington before the destruction from the alien craft.I also give background on my life and my son, David Levinson. Take a look at the reconstruction efforts of our nation and the world in the aftermath of the war. This book gives a compelling reason why we survived, faith and a belief in God.

What does it mean to live dangerously? This is not just a philosophical question or an ethical call to reflect upon our own individual recklessness. It is a deeply political issue, fundamental to the new doctrine of ‘resilience’ that is becoming a key term of art for governing planetary life in the 21st Century. No longer should we think in terms of evading the possibility of traumatic experiences. Catastrophic events, we are told, are not just inevitable but learning experiences from which we have to grow and prosper, collectively and individually. Vulnerability to threat, injury and loss has to be accepted as a reality of human existence. In this original and compelling text, Brad Evans and Julian Reid explore the political and philosophical stakes of the resilience turn in security and governmental thinking. Resilience, they argue, is a neo-liberal deceit that works by disempowering endangered populations of autonomous agency. Its consequences represent a profound assault on the human subject whose meaning and sole purpose is reduced to survivability. Not only does this reveal the nihilistic qualities of a liberal project that is coming to terms with its political demise. All life now enters into lasting crises that are catastrophic unto the end.
