In Why Are Health Disparities Everyone's Problem? Dr. Lisa Cooper shows how we can work together to eliminate the injustices that plague our health care system and society. The book follows Cooper's journey from her childhood in Liberia, West Africa, to her thirty-year career working first as a clinician and then as a health equity researcher at Johns Hopkins University. Drawing on her experiences, it explores how differences in communication and the quality of relationships affect health outcomes.

What if everything we thought we knew about conflict and cooperation was backwards? For centuries, philosophers, economists, and scientists have asked: why do humans cooperate? The question assumes that conflict is natural and cooperation is the puzzle requiring explanation. This groundbreaking book inverts that assumption entirely. Drawing on evolutionary game theory, Nobel Prize-winning research on commons governance, and evidence from biology to artificial intelligence, A Unified Theory of Self-Organizing Systems presents a radical reframing.

Auch Tülin, geboren in Berlin-Neukölln, steht von Kindheit an vor der Frage: Wie (viel) deutsch kann und muss ich sein? Jede Begegnung verschiebt die Antwort auf dieser Suche nach Identität. Tülin lebt im ständigen Spagat zwischen der Berlinerin mit Migrationshintergrund in Deutschland und dem Almanci-Mädchen in der Türkei. Mit Humor und feinem Gespür für Menschen erzählt sie von den Momenten, die sie prägten, stärkten oder auch verletzten – und ihren Blick schärften für Charaktere, Eigenheiten und Klischees.

La tesi di Murgia è che l'odio possa essere una virtù, dipende da come lo pratichiamo. Per esempio, con Odio gli indifferenti Antonio Gramsci ha mostrato che, se riconosciuto e disciplinato, questo sentimento non è per forza distruttivo. Passando dalle maledizioni sarde ai salmi biblici, da Grazia Deledda alle lettere di san Paolo, Murgia smonta i nostri pregiudizi e rivendica il diritto di odiare – specialmente i prevaricatori, i prepotenti, tutti coloro che non credono nella responsabilità collettiva del bene.

Un giorno non ci saremo più. Ma rimarranno online tutte le tracce che abbiamo lasciato, la nostra storia a portata di click: dai profili social ai nostri ricordi più intimi. Senza accorgercene, Internet si è riempito di fantasmi digitali, account inattivi pronti a ricordarci la loro esistenza: ecco cosa significa vivere (e morire) nell'era social. Il lutto non è più un'esperienza privata: si è espanso nel mondo virtuale esattamente come tutto il resto, ridefinendo la nostra relazione con la perdita e la memoria.

In Sweatshop Capital, Beth Robinson examines the brutal sweatshop labor conditions that produced American consumer goods from the late nineteenth through the early twenty-first centuries, as well as the labor and social movements that contested them. Arguing that sweatshop labor is a persistent feature of capitalism, she shows how manufacturers used both their influence in government and their mobility to sidestep US labor laws, maximize profits, and perpetuate abuses.

Daniel Mansuy analiza el gobierno de Gabriel Boric y repasa la década del Frente Amplio en el poder.

Diffidate di chi propone soluzioni facili. Per i problemi seri ne esistono poche e la disuguaglianza economica alle stelle è senz'altro un problema serissimo. Eppure, se non soluzioni, almeno strade giuste da percorrere se ne intravedono rispetto a quelle sbagliate imboccate sin qui. Tra le più ovvie ci sarebbe quella di ripensare il sistema fiscale in modo che torni, come prevede la nostra Costituzione, a chiedere di più a chi ha di più per alleggerire il carico di chi ha di meno. Questo libro prova a raccontarla meglio per far capire che sarebbe nell'interesse di tutti, ricchi compresi.

In Der Frauen Natur und Recht (1876) widerlegt Hedwig Dohm, Vordenkerin der frühen Frauenbewegung, die angeblich naturgegebenen Unterschiede zwischen den Geschlechtern – scharfsinnig, humorvoll und mutig. Mit beeindruckender Klarheit analysiert sie psychologische, gesellschaftliche und politische Argumente gegen die Gleichberechtigung – und entlarvt deren ideologische Grundlagen. Ein prägender Text der feministischen Literaturgeschichte. Ein kraftvoller Appell für Gleichberechtigung – unbequem, scharfsinnig und erstaunlich zeitgemäß.

You pay for mistakes you never made. You carry guilt that was planted on your shoulders long before you had the chance to question it. You get blamed for problems created by people you will never meet. And you were trained to accept all of it without asking why. The Root of Deception exposes the design behind this quiet manipulation. Fear is crafted with precision. Shame is assigned like a tax. Blame is redirected until ordinary people absorb the damage for the system that claims to protect them.
