Querdenken-Demos, gewaltbereite Reichsbürger, Verschwörungstheoretiker - immer mehr Menschen driften auf der Suche nach Halt und Orientierung in radikale Ideen- und Vorstellungswelten ab, finden Antworten in Chat-Gruppen, Internetforen und auf fragwürdigen Webseiten. Immer häufiger wissen Freunde und Angehörige sich im Umgang mit Betroffenen nicht mehr zu helfen, fehlen Strategien, um miteinander im Kontakt und Gespräch zu bleiben. Wie können wir diesen Entwicklungen begegnen? Dana Buchzik erklärt die Psychologie hinter dieser Entfremdung.

Self-help today is a multibillion-dollar global industry, one often seen as a byproduct of neoliberalism and capitalism. Far from being a recent phenomenon, however, the practice of self-improvement has a long and rich history, extending all the way back to ancient China. For millennia, philosophers, sages, and theologians have reflected on the good life and devised strategies on how to achieve it.  

How did the shift from matriarchy to patriarchy come about? In fascinating detail, Merlin Stone tells us the story of the Goddess who reigned supreme in the Near and Middle East. Under her reign, societal roles differed markedly from those in patriarchal Judeo-Christian cultures: women bought and sold property, traded in the marketplace, and inherited title and land from their mothers.

Vitality floods its pages. Philosophers and kings, warriors and merchants, poets and financiers come alive as the story ranges across time and the globe. From ancient Palestine through Europe and the Orient, to America and modern Israel, Max Dimont shows how the saga of the Jews is interwoven with the history of virtually every nation on earth.

We are taught to treat innocence as a phase. It is the thing the world is supposed to take from us, the softness we are expected to outgrow on the way to becoming serious, competent, unfoolable adults. To be called innocent, past a certain age, is to be gently insulted. This book argues that we have misread one of the rarest and most valuable capacities a human being can possess.

Dos hermanas. Una invitada. Una decisión silenciosa que, en silencio, marca el rumbo de toda tu vida. Conocemos la escena sin necesidad de que nos la cuenten. Una hermana se esfuerza al máximo para preparar la cena. La otra simplemente se sienta y escucha. Durante siglos, a la hermana trabajadora se la ha regañado y a la callada se la ha elogiado, y la mayoría hemos asentido con la cabeza, sintiéndonos vagamente culpables, para luego volver a poner la mesa. Este libro afirma que la interpretación tradicional ignora por completo la herida. Martha no es perezosa. No es cruel.

Three men are handed a fortune and told nothing. Two put the money at risk. One buries his share, keeps it perfectly safe, and returns every coin of it. He is the only one condemned — and he is the only one who lost nothing. Most of us spend a third of our waking lives inside arrangements we rarely examine: an agreement to give hours in exchange for money, made with someone who holds more power than we do, governed by rules that are mostly unwritten. We know when something has gone wrong in such an arrangement. We are far less certain what would make it right.

In autumn 1942, Anna Goldenberg's great-grandparents and one of their sons are deported to the Theresienstadt concentration camp. Hans, their elder son, survives by hiding in an apartment in the middle of Nazi-controlled Vienna.

Bücher zum Thema Lebenshilfe treffen heute offensichtlich auf ein großes Bedürfnis der Menschen. Wir sehnen uns danach, dass unser Leben gelingt. Und immer mehr erkennen, dass ein Gelingen des Lebens ohne den Bezug zu Gott kaum möglich ist. Auf unserem Weg zu einem gelingenden Leben, auf dem Weg zu uns selbst und zu Gott sind wir nicht allein auf uns gestellt und nicht nur auf unsere eigene Erfahrung angewiesen. Wir dürfen aus den reichen Quellen schöpfen, die uns die christliche Tradition anbietet.

Twenty years since its first publication, this new anniversary edition of the Holocaust memoir of George Salton (then Lucjan Salzman), gives listeners a personal and powerful account of his survival through one of the darkest periods in human history. With heartbreaking and honest reflection, the author shares a gripping first-person narrative of his transformation from a Jewish eleven-year-old boy living happily in Tyczyn, Poland, with his brother and parents, to his experiences as a teenage victim of growing persecution, brutality, and imprisonment as the Nazis pursued the Final Solution.

Jan Gross' hugely controversial Neighbors was a historian's disclosure of the events in the small Polish town of Jedwabne on July 10, 1941, when the citizens rounded up the Jewish population and burned them alive in a barn. The massacre was a shocking secret that had been suppressed for more than 60 years, and it provoked the most important public debate in Poland since 1989. Part history, part memoir, The Crime and the Silence is the journalist's account of these events.
