In this new edition, Steve Bruce discusses the continuing arguments for social egalitarianism, considering issues such as gay marriage, women in combat roles, and the 2010 Equality Act to debunk contemporary arguments against parity. As gender divisions are increasingly questioned, he looks ahead to the likely consequences of this for society.

Since the original publication of Nudge more than a decade ago, the title has entered the vocabulary of businesspeople, policy makers, engaged citizens, and consumers everywhere. The book has given rise to more than 200 "nudge units" in governments around the world and countless groups of behavioral scientists in every part of the economy. It has taught us how to use thoughtful "choice architecture" - a concept the authors invented - to help us make better decisions for ourselves, our families, and our society.

In the twenty years following Hu AnYan’s high school graduation, he has held nineteen different jobs. He’s been a convenience store clerk, a bicycle salesman, a security guard and a delivery driver (among many other things). He moves from city to city in China, slipping away any time the work gets too punishing or the bosses too bossy, carrying with him nothing but his copies of Chekhov and Carver. A million-copy bestseller in China, I Deliver Parcels in Beijing is Hu’s account of his life as a low-wage labourer working to live, not living to work.

Luca Rohleder schildert einen persönlichen Wachstumsprozess, den er in verschiedene Lebensphasen aufteilt. Dabei beginnt er schon mit der empathischen Prägung kurz nach der Geburt, veranschaulicht dann die ersten Liebeserfahrungen und endet mit der Liebe im fortgeschrittenen Alter.

Der Ostjude weiß in seiner Heimat nichts von der sozialen Ungerechtigkeit des Westens; nichts von der Herrschaft des Vorurteils, das die Wege, Handlungen, Sitten und Weltanschauungen des durchschnittlichen Westeuropäers beherrscht; nichts von der Enge des westlichen Horizonts, den Kraftanlagen umsäumen und Fabrikschornsteine durchzacken; nichts von dem Hass, der bereits so stark ist, dass man ihn als daseinerhaltendes (aber lebentötendes) Mittel sorgfältig hütet, wie ein ewiges Feuer, an dem sich der Egoismus jedes Menschen und jedes Landes wärmt.

In Original Sin, Kathryn Paige Harden weaves together insights from her own experience as a daughter, mother, wife, and scientist with cutting-edge research in genetics and psychology to grapple with some of the most important questions in modern life: How do we take responsibility for the people we become, knowing how we are shaped by both biology and experience? How should we respond when people hurt each other—or themselves? And has science made guilt obsolete?

The Communist Manifesto, written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels and translated into English by Samuel Moore in 1888 under Engels’ supervision, is one of the most influential political texts in modern history. Originally published in 1848, this concise manifesto lays out the principles of communism, the theory of historical materialism, and the role of class struggle as the driving force of history. Marx and Engels call for the working class to unite against capitalist oppression and envision a future society free from class divisions.

Pero hoy, cuando la imparable globalización que todo lo homogeneiza ha suscitado como reacción la reivindicación de indigenismos agraviados, ningún debate cultural es más candente y delicado que el de la apropiación cultural. En este pertinente ensayo, Jens Balzer plantea este complejo debate ilustrándolo con experiencias generacionales y con la historia contemporánea de la música ligera, que a cualquier lector le resultarán familiares.

La dopamina es la sustancia que permitió que nuestros ancestros pervivieran. Hoy en cambio, es la responsable de nuestro comportamiento, adicciones y del progreso humano. Es la molécula del deseo, la que controla nuestros impulsos y la que nos incita a buscar siempre nuevos estímulos.

When actor, playwright and comedian Seamus O'Rourke first published Standing in Gaps in 2020 it found a wide audience amongst readers in rural Ireland. With a distinct talent for seeing the absurd in the ordinary, mundane lives of people who 'had nothing better to be at' and making it hilarious, Standing in Gaps manages to turn back time and transport the listener to a place where everything moved slowly – and in the Leitrim of the '60s, '70s and '80s, that means really slowly.

Con una mirada esclarecedora, Óscar Rosa explora el origen de la profesión, los cambios en la legislación que han marcado su evolución y los secretos mejor guardados detrás de las puertas de las agencias de detectives. La figura del detective privado ha cautivado al público desde el siglo XIX, envuelta en un halo de misterio y riesgo inmortalizado por la literatura y el cine.

Max Weber, Gründer der modernen Soziologie, nahm es 1919, kurz nach dem ersten Weltkrieg, auf sich, in Zeiten von politischem Chaos und Revolutionsphantasien nicht nur das politische Geschehen in Deutschland zu analysieren, sondern die grundsätzliche Frage zu beantworten, welche Charaktereigenschaften und Ansichten für einen Menschen, der die Politik als Berufung sieht, nötig sind. Besonders interessant und geradezu zeitlos in der Analyse ist Webers Unterscheidung zwischen "Gesinnungsethik" und "Verantwortungsethik" - Begriffe, die noch heute Politiker in wahre Zwickmühlen bringen können.

もう二度と日本にこんな兄弟が現れることはないだろう。狂乱のバブルに踊り、栄光と挫折の物語を生きた2人は、時代が求めた最後のアンチヒーローだった!

In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner.
