FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description WE ALL DESERVE TO BE FREEOnce upon a time, we were free to go wherever we chose. It wasnt so long ago. The history of humanity, is a tale of constant motion.People are supposed to move about. We have imaginations which encourage us to dream about life in other places, bodies which are built to roam, and hands which can make an array of vehicles. A few of us even possess the "Wanderlust Gene", which encourages us to take risks - to sail across unchartered oceans, and launch ourselves towards faraway planets.Some of us are forced to relocate. Lots of us choose to migrate. A few of us belong to nomadic communities.But if one thing is clear, its that mobility improves our societies. Emigrants send back billions in remittances - helping to reduce poverty, and inspiring their peers to upskill. Immigrants do the work that their hosts are unwilling or unable to perform. They sustain economies which have ageing populations. They establish industries, invent products, create jobs, increase wages, fuel growth, pay taxes, and enrich our cultures - enhancing our music, arts, sports, languages and cuisine.Its time to celebrate movement! Its time to demand our freedom! Its time for open borders!This book explains why - making the historical, scientific, economic, cultural, political and philosophical cases for free movement. Author Biography Joss Sheldon is a scruffy nomad, unchained free-thinker, and post-modernist radical. He was raised in one of the anonymous suburbs that wrap themselves around Londons beating heart. Then he escaped!With a degree from the London School of Economics to his name, Sheldon had spells selling falafel at music festivals, being a ski-bum, and failing to turn the English Midlands into a haven of rugby league.Then, in 2013, he stumbled upon McLeod Ganj; an Indian village which is home to thousands of angry monkeys. It was there that Sheldon wrote his debut novel, Involution & Evolution.Eleven years down the line, hes penned eight titles in total, including two works of non-fiction: "DEMOCRACY: A Users Guide", and his latest release, "FREEDOM: The Case For Open Borders". Review Its a manifesto of hope, which encourages the reader to dream of a world in which humans live together as a global family; unhindered by national borders which dictate who can be rich and who must endure a life of poverty. Its thorough; covering everything from genetics to Old Testament scripture, nomadism to fish and chips. And, most importantly, its a pretty entertaining tome; taking a convoluted subject, and breaking it down into bite-sized chunks; telling things in a storybook fashion that will appeal to fans of literature as well as history and politics.*** NEW EDGE TIMES ***Joss Sheldons Freedom: The Case For Open Borders demystifies the benefits of migration and advocates for a borderless world... From studies by the Harvard Medical School and other well-quoted sources, to a logical examination of the benefits of learning from other cultures... the book had me completely intrigued... Forget what the media tells you about immigrants. Freedom: The Case For Open Borders is filled with well-researched facts and logical arguments that will instantly turn antagonists into advocates for open borders.*** READERS VIEWS ***"Freedom: The Case for Open Borders is an examination of freedom, mobility, and emigrant value. Its a thought-provoking, inviting consideration of why the concept of open borders is more sustainable and positive than that of constructing walls to keep people out... The result may be a hard-hitting and perhaps overly idealistic, at times, but its a powerful discussion that deserves a place not only in classrooms considering history and social issues, but in reading groups where debates may swirl around Americas makeup, immigrant influence, and future."*** MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW *** Details ISBN Author Joss Sheldon Pages 710 Publisher Joss Sheldon Edition Description Large type / large print edition Year 2024 ISBN-13 9798869085061 Format Paperback Publication Date 2024-02-29 Imprint Joss Sheldon Subtitle The Case For Open Borders: LARGE PRINT EDITION Audience General UK Release Date 2024-02-29 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
