Not all technology is for the benefit of humanity... Mindset is a science fiction thriller about the boundless reaches of the human imagination and the innovations that are best left inside our minds. Jack Cooper is a leading neuroscientist who invents a new wireless mobile device, named the Mindset. This incredible instrument easily converts thoughts into text via smartphone. Without Jack's knowledge, the technology is sold to venture capitalists, who modify it toward their own dark ends. By refusing to let his device be hi-jacked, Cooper is taken on a thrill ride of deception, abduction, and mind-control. Ultimately, Jack learns he is the only one who can navigate this new surreal landscape and stop what never should have started in the first place. Only one question remains - Is it just too late?

Carlos Martinez is an independent researcher and political activist from London, Britain. He is the co-founder of No Cold War and Friends of Socialist China, and the author of The End of the Beginning: Lessons of the Soviet Collapse (LeftWord Books, 2019). In No Great Wall: On the Continuities of the Chinese Revolution, Martinez concisely traces the history of the Chinese revolution from the formation of the Communist Party of China in 1919, to the current Xi Jinping era. Contrary to those who argue there was a betrayal of the revolution in 1978 with Deng Xiaoping's Reform and Opening Up, Martinez lucidly shows how the Chinese revolution has been a continuous process, adjusting its governance in accord to changes in national and geopolitical contexts. This collection also includes the essay "Will China Suffer the Same Fate as the Soviet Union?" which relates the development of the Chinese revolution to the Soviet, and "The CPC: The Most Successful Political Party in History," which reflects on the successes of the Chinese revolution following the 20th National Congress of the CPC.

The essays in this collection reflect the many ways in which women are not just victims of state (and familial) apparatuses of power across South Asia but have also organized and fought back against heteropatriarchal class and caste oppressions, while supporting their communities against the precarity of our neoliberal times. The Humanities and Social Science methodological approaches that frame the essays represent interdisciplinary mappings of women's rights broadly construed, as these intersect with environmental and ecological interventions, land rights, LGBTQI+ identities and concerns, as well as hitherto unforeseen regressive trends regarding the mobilization/weaponization of religion and masculinist nationalisms in a neoliberal world order. The essays demonstrate how our contemporary moment connects colonial and postcolonial realities in South Asia, showing how these historical eras are deeply intertwined and co-implicated in the resultant inequities spawned by neoliberal globalization, reflecting what the late Nawal el Saadawi dubbed, the patriarchal class system.
