Hat deine Ur-Ur-Uroma eigentlich schon an Sex gedacht? Klar, denn sonst wärst du heute wahrscheinlich nicht hier! Sicher hat sie anders geflirtet als die heutige Jugend. Aber die Menschen waren früher längst nicht so prüde, wie wir manchmal denken. Liebe, Sex und nackte Körper gab es schon immer. Aber wie darüber gesprochen, gemalt und geurteilt wurde, das verändert sich im Lauf der Geschichte immer wieder. Die Ethnologin Elin Hägg nimmt uns mit auf eine erstaunliche Reise durch die (abendländische) Geschichte der Ideen, Religionen und Machtverhältnisse – immer in Bezug auf deren Auswirkungen auf das Sexleben.

Über 15 Millionen Mal wurden Kinder in der BRD und der DDR seit 1945 zur Kur geschickt. Für viele von ihnen waren diese Wochen prägend – und doch haben sie kaum darüber geredet. Dieses Buch erzählt die wenig bekannte Geschichte der deutschen Verschickungskinder.

It explains the role of cults, the new definitions of work, play, love, and success. It points toward new forms of 21st-century democracy.

Characterized by petty rivalries, self-indulgence and lack of responsibility, our actions fail to fulfill what Robert Bly describes as our true soul longing. With characteristic irreverence and storytelling from various cultures, Bly tells us what we should be doing about green-haired adolescents and idle elders, not to mention televisions and computers. His insightful focus illuminates the truths and possibilities of a culture caught in an adolescent phase of development.

In her first book of comic strips, Emma reflects on social and feminist issues by means of simple line drawings, dissecting the mental load, ie all that invisible and unpaid organizing, list-making and planning women do to manage their lives, and the lives of their family members. Most of us carry some form of mental load - about our work, household responsibilities, financial obligations and personal life; but what makes up that burden and how it's distributed within households and understood in offices is not always equal or fair.

In Lost Boys, James Bloodworth delves into these underground worlds and asks where have they come from? Why are so many men susceptible to the sinister beliefs these groups promote? What does the emergence of these communities say about Western society? And what can we do about it?

Capitalist ideology wants us to believe that there is an optimal way to live. "Making connections" means networking for work. Our emotional needs are to be fulfilled by a single romantic partner, and self-care equates to taking personal responsibility for our suffering. We must be productive and heteronormative; we must have babies and buy a house. But the kicker is most people cannot and do not want to achieve all or any of these life goals. Instead, we are left feeling atomized, exhausted, and disempowered. Radical Intimacy shows that it doesn't need to be this way.

What is 'woman' if not 'mother'? Anything she wants to be. Foregoing motherhood has traditionally marked a woman as 'other.' With no official place setting for her in our society, she has hovered on the sidelines: the quirky girl, the neurotic career obsessive, the 'eccentric' aunt. Instead of continuing to paint women without kids as sad, self-obsessed, or somehow dysfunctional, what if we saw them as boldly forging a new vision for a fully autonomous womankind? Or as journalist and thought leader Ruby Warrington asks, what if being a woman without kids were in fact its own kind of legacy?

"Verantwortungsvoll ejakulieren" ist der provokante Debattentext für alle, die keine Angst davor haben, patriarchal geprägte Tabus zu brechen. Gabrielle Blair knöpft sich in diesem New York Times-Bestseller den Mythos vor, dass Verhütung Frauensache sei. In 28 bestechenden Argumenten legt sie dar, warum sich Männer darum kümmern müssen – aus physiologischen ebenso wie aus Gerechtigkeitsgründen. Denn Männer können lebenslang 24/7 Kinder zeugen, während Frauen pro Zyklus nur einen Tag fruchtbar sind. Darüber hinaus können Frauen ihren Eisprung nicht verhindern, während Männer ihren Samen durchaus lenken können – und sei es in ein Kondom.

En este libro, el Premio Nacional de Ciencias, Humberto Maturana, nos llevará por un viaje hacia las maneras como se conectan la razón y lo que llamamos realidad, y cómo esto determina, muchas veces, nuestro modo de convivir. Este libro nos invita a reflexionar sobre la aceptación y rechazo del otro, las emociones, la forma como vivimos en el lenguaje, y cómo el observar es el punto de partida para entender que la realidad y la razón son usados como argumentos relacionales del dominio de nuestro convivir humano.
