In this landmark, character-driven history, Greg Behrman tells the story of the Marshall Plan, the unprecedented and audacious policy through which America helped rebuild World War II-ravaged Western Europe. With nuanced, vivid prose, Behrman recreates the story of a unique American enterprise that was at once strategic, altruistic and stunningly effective, and of a time when America stood as a beacon of generosity and moral leadership. When World War II ended in Europe, the continent lay in tatters. Tens of millions of people had been killed. Ancient cities had been demolished. The economic, financial and commercial foundations of Europe were in shambles. Western Europe's Communist parties -- feeding off people's want and despair -- were flourishing as, to the east, Stalin's Soviet Union emerged as the sole superpower on the continent. The Marshall Plan was a four-year, $13 billion (more than $100 billion in today's dollars) plan to provide assistance for Europe's economic recovery. More than an aid program, it sought to modernize Western Europe's economies and launch them on a path to prosperity and integration; to restore Western Europe's faith in democracy and capitalism; to enmesh the region firmly in a Western economic association and eventually a military alliance. It was the linchpin of America's strategy to meet the Soviet threat. It helped to trigger the Cold War and, eventually, to win it. Through detailed and exhaustive research, Behrman brings this vital and dramatic epoch to life and animates the personalities that shaped it. The narrative follows the six extraordinary American statesmen -- George Marshall, Will Clayton, Arthur Vandenberg, Richard Bissell, Paul Hoffman and W. Averell Harriman -- who devised and implemented the Plan, as well as some of the century's most important personalities -- Winston Churchill, Josef Stalin, Joseph McCarthy -- who are also central players in the drama told here. More than a humanitarian endeavor, the Marshall Plan was one of the most effective foreign policies in all of American history, in large part because, as Behrman writes, it was born and executed in a time when American foreign policy was defined by its national interests and the very best of ideals.Binding Type: Paperback

One of the Most Promising NAD Serums I’ve Tried
Scent: Red Effect Serum, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Red Effect Serum, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
At 52, post-menopausal, with mature dry skin, I pay close attention to ingredients that may support healthier-looking skin over time. I’ve been using topical NAD-related products for a couple of years now, so this category is not new to me. I’ve tried more expensive options, including brands like Aramore, and until recently many NAD-focused products were priced much higher than this.
That’s one reason this serum immediately caught my attention.
Abib has been around for years and has built a very strong reputation in Korean skincare. They are known for quality formulas, thoughtful textures, and products that feel modern without being gimmicky. Seeing a trusted Korean brand working with NAD made trying this an easy decision for me.
It’s important to be realistic and informed here. There is still limited scientific evidence specifically around topical NAD/NMN use compared with more established skincare ingredients. I think honesty matters. This is not a miracle ingredient that instantly transforms skin. But it is absolutely one of the ingredients to watch as skincare continues evolving.
What matters most to me is how a product performs in real life, and this one performs well.
The serum feels lightweight, smooth, and easy to use without any heavy fragrance. It absorbs nicely without heaviness or stickiness and layers well with the rest of a routine. That matters because the best serum is the one you’ll actually use consistently.
And consistency is the key with products like this. You should not expect dramatic overnight changes. This is more about steady long-term support: helping skin look smoother, fresher, more hydrated, and better maintained over time.
I also like that this formula includes astaxanthin, a respected antioxidant often discussed for helping defend against environmental stress and supporting overall skin vitality. Paired with NAD-focused ingredients, it gives the formula a more complete feel rather than relying on one trend ingredient.
With regular use, my skin looks healthier, more even, and well cared for. It gives that subtle polished effect I value more than exaggerated promises.
Who is this best for? Ingredient-conscious skincare users, people interested in newer longevity-style skincare trends, mature skin, anyone wanting antioxidant support, or those curious about NAD products without paying luxury prices.
Who may not love it? If you only want ingredients with decades of established topical data, you may prefer more traditional actives. If you expect dramatic overnight changes, this is not that kind of product.
What stands out most is that this makes a newer category feel accessible. Trusted brand, smart formula, fair price, and the kind of steady results that come with consistent use. A very impressive serum from a brand that continues to do things well.

High Concentration PDRN
Scent: PDRN, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: PDRN, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love K-Beauty skincare, and Abib is one of those brands I am genuinely obsessed with. They consistently focus on thoughtful formulations and skin-friendly ingredients, which is exactly what I look for.
I’m in my early 30s with combination skin, and since I use a lot of actives (acids, retinol, etc.), I need products that support my skin without feeling heavy or clogging.
This PDRN booster cream is such a standout:
✔ PDRN (15,000 ppm) – Helps with skin repair and gives that subtle plumping effect over time.
✔ Peptides – Support firmness and elasticity, especially in areas like smile lines and forehead.
✔ Retinal – A more advanced vitamin A that helps smooth texture and fine lines.
✔ Barrier-supporting ingredients – Keeps skin comfortable and balanced despite active ingredients.
The texture surprised me — it’s richer than a serum but still absorbs beautifully without feeling greasy.
💭 My experience:
This makes my skin feel instantly smoother and more hydrated, but the real magic is how it improves texture over time. My skin looks more refined and slightly plumper, especially in areas where I tend to lose hydration.
✔ No heaviness
✔ No breakouts
✔ Works well in an active-heavy routine
Abib just gets it — effective ingredients, elegant formulas, and results you can actually see.

Gentle but powerful serum!
Scent: Bright Force, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Soo gentle, moisturizing and it works! So true to its name, its a bright force after first use! This was such a pleasant surprise to me. I did some light research on this product and was confident after reading the ingredient list that it would help my post acne hyperpigmentation and even tone concerns. Im slowly increasing use and only starting in my nighttime routine as instructed. No irritation or break outs. I use almost 2 pumps and it’s enough to easily spread out on my whole face and absorbs nicely without greasiness. It has a very mild scent but it’s barely there. I have sensitive acne prone skin and it worked for me so i would highly recommend to anyone wanting to try the benefits of higher niacinamide concentrations.

Zero stars smells like chicken bullion maybe I got a bad one
Scent: PDRN, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My husband even commented on the smell when he kissed me goodnight after I put this on, thinking I was crazy for thinking it smelled horrible. In the pictures online it shows it a clearish pink hue even in large puddles in their marketing. One pump of this comes out a gross cloudy salmon orange color, nothing like the picture. Maybe a bad batch?

Definitely worth a try
Scent: Red Effect Serum, Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Absorbs well without leaving any sticky feel. I’ve noticed that my skin has better evenness and smoother texture. Starting to see less fine lines and a more hydrated and tightened complexion.
