Glasklare Augen, Schlitz im Ohr, seidenweicher roter Pelz und ein starker, gutmütiger Charakter. Das ist Kater Bert! Als seine todbringende Diagnose ausgesprochen wird, ist klar, dass einer der allerbesten Freunde sterben wird. Niemand weiß, wieviel gemeinsame Zeit noch bleibt und wie der Abschied ablaufen wird. Das Sterben und die Sterbebegleitung – auch mithilfe von Tierkommunikation – entpuppen sich am Ende als ein Geschenk.

Gabriele Mönnig, alias Anaya Satya, beschreibt den Moment, in dem alte Muster ihre Kraft verlieren und das System auf „Null" zurückfährt. Authentisch und ungefiltert berichtet sie von der Dekonstruktion übernommener Identitäten und der mutigen Entscheidung für einen vollständigen Systemreset. Es ist die Erzählung eines Erwachens, das jenseits von Optimierungszwängen dort ansetzt, wo die Stille beginnt und echte Autonomie entsteht.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is known around the world as the “Father of Psychoanalysis,” and for good reason. If anything, Freud’s first patient was himself. A sufferer of psychosomatic symptoms, Freud diagnosed himself as having a repressed antagonism against his father. From there, Freud began to build on his now famous concepts of the unconscious, infantile sexuality and repression. And of course, there’s his famous theory on the structure of the mind, which has made Id and Ego a commonly used part of the English lexicon.

In einer biographischen Ideengeschichte wird uns der geniale Forscher von einem genialen Autoren nähergebracht. Unnachahmlich.

The Big Three in Economics reveals the battle of ideas among the three most influential economists in world history: Adam Smith, representing laissez faire; Karl Marx, reflecting the radical socialist model; and John Maynard Keynes, symbolizing big government and the welfare state. History comes alive in this fascinating story of opposing views that continue to play a fundamental role in today's politics and economics.

Until the twentieth century, scientists investigating the effects of drugs on the mind did so by experimenting on themselves. Vivid descriptions of drug experiences sparked insights across the mind sciences, pharmacology, medicine, and philosophy. But after 1900 drugs were increasingly viewed as a social problem, and the long tradition of self-experimentation began to disappear. Mike Jay brilliantly recovers a lost intellectual tradition of drug-taking that fed the birth of psychology, the discovery of the unconscious, and the emergence of modernism.

El psicoanálisis enfrentado a una decisión clave: seguir con los modelos caducos o abrirse a los nuevos planteamientos de la radicalidad político-sexual. En diciembre de 2019 Paul B. Preciado pronunció un discurso ante 3.500 psicoanalistas reunidos para las jornadas internacionales de l’École de la Cause Freudienne en París. Les planteó la disyuntiva ante la que se encuentra el psicoanálisis: continuar trabajando con la antigua epistemología de la diferencia sexual y validar de este modo el régimen patriarco-colonial que la sustenta.
