In Defence of Democracy is an essential read for anyone concerned about the state of democratic governance in today's world. This thought-provoking book, authored by the insightful Canadian-Irish writer Roslyn Fuller, boldly tackles pressing issues influencing our democratic institutions. As political events like Brexit and the Trump presidency raise questions about the efficacy of democracy, Fuller passionately argues that it's not 'the people' who are at fault, but rather the elite structures undermining true democratic engagement. With 216 pages of incisive commentary, this enlightening book examines how prominent academics and politicians propose limiting popular participation, undermining the very essence of democracy. In this compelling work, Fuller reveals how ancient democratic practices can be harmoniously integrated with modern technology to rejuvenate the principles of participatory governance. This book is vital for students, political enthusiasts, and those grappling with the complexities of modern democracy. It inspires hope for a future where voters reclaim their power and renew the essence of democratic rule. The book is in brand new condition and published by John Wiley & Sons (UK) in 2019, making it a relevant addition to any bookshelf interested in contemporary political discourse.

Description:
Should Brexit or Trump cause us to doubt our faith in democracy? Are Âthe people™ too ignorant or stupid to rule? Numerous commentators are seriously arguing that the answer to these questions might be Âyes™.
In this take-no-prisoners book, Canadian-Irish author Roslyn Fuller kicks these anti-democrats where it hurts the most “ the facts. Fuller shows how many academics, journalists and politicians have embraced the idea that there can be Âtoo much democracy™, and deftly unravels their attempts to end majority rule, whether through limiting the franchise, pursuing Chinese Âmeritocracy™ or confining participation to random legislation panels. She shows that Trump, Brexit or whatever other political event you may have disapproved of recently aren™t doing half the damage to democracy that elite self-righteousness and corruption are. In fact, argues Fuller, there are real reasons to be optimistic. Ancient methods can be combined with modern technology to revitalize democracy and allow the people to truly rule.
In Defence of Democracy is a witty and energetic contribution to the debate on the future of democracy.

Cariloha pillow cover replacement
Color: White, Size: Queen
I have a queen size Cariloha resort pillow and the zipper on the cover broke. This replacement is SPOT on and fit perfect. Material feels comparable to original very pleased.

The fabric feels soft and noticeably comfortable against the skin
Color: White, Size: Queen
This is a zippered pillow protector made from a bamboo/polyester blend with a quilted surface. I’ve been using it for a few months on a standard queen pillow, including regular washing and everyday use. It’s also been exposed to dog hair, which I’ve been able to manage by vacuuming the surface.
Pros
The fabric feels soft and noticeably comfortable against the skin
Breathable design helps keep the pillow from feeling overly warm
Quilted texture adds a bit of cushioning without changing the pillow’s shape
Zipper closure keeps the pillow fully enclosed and secure
Holds up well after multiple washes
Vacuuming the surface works well for removing pet hair
Cons
White fabric shows dirt and hair more easily between washes
Slightly thicker than a basic pillowcase, which may not suit everyone
Bamboo blend feel is smooth but not identical to 100% natural fabrics
Bottom line:
For me, this has been a comfortable, low-maintenance pillow protector that holds up well over time, especially useful if you want something breathable that can handle regular cleaning and pet hair.

Say goodbye to neck pain
Color: White, Size: Queen
This is a very good product but it takes some time to adjust removable stuffing to accommodate individual sleeping patterns.

Soft and comfortable cooling pillowcase that gets the job done!
Color: White, Size: Queen, Color: White, Size: Queen
I got this quilted bamboo pillow protector (queen size) because I wanted a cleaner, cooler layer between my pillow and pillowcase since I’m always hot. This has been a great solution for that.
The fabric feels soft and smooth, and it doesn’t make that crinkly noise some cooling pillowcases do. I’m a warm sleeper and the “cooling” aspect feels more like breathable than icy-cold, but it definitely sleeps more comfortably than the thick polyester protectors I’ve used in the past. The light quilting adds a little cushion without making my pillow feel bulky or changing the loft much.
I like the fact that if you use a memory foam fill pillow you can add or remove some of the filling to make the pillow as firm or mushy as you want. This is especially helpful for people that are side sleepers vs people that need more neck support.
The zipper is a big plus. Just be careful when zipping it open and closed as these are usually the first point of failure for pillowcases in my experience. It closes fully and keeps the protector snug so it doesn’t shift around inside the pillowcase, and it gives me peace of mind for sweat / oils and everyday wear. I’ve washed it and it came out fine with no weird shrinking, and the stitching still looks clean.
For the price, it feels like good value if you’re trying to extend the life of a nicer pillow while keeping the sleep surface soft and breathable. It’s one of those small upgrades you don’t think about much once it’s on, which is kind of the point. It just works and helps me sleep more comfortably.
