A constant stream of impoverished women and girls have been, and are being, enslaved and abused in the Asia Pacific region. Slavery is not a historical issue – it’s happening today. History is repeating itself. Through Sylvia Yu Friedman’s work in journalism, counter-trafficking and philanthropy, she has had rare and incredible access to victims of sex trafficking and modern slavery in China, Thailand, Cambodia, North Korea, South Korea, Myanmar and Indonesia.

In "Wie fühlst du dich?" geht es um die Erkenntnis, dass man Gefühl und Vernunft nicht einfach trennen kann, vor allem aber um unsere Eigenständigkeit, um die Fähigkeit, sich zu wehren gegen jene, die uns so gern am Nasenring unserer Affekte durch die Welt führen würden. Überlassen wir unsere Gefühle nicht den Falschen, sondern fragen wir uns lieber selbst: Wie gehen wir mit der Angst um, die uns alle in Atem hält?

Manchmal braucht es nur einen Satz–und das Leben nimmt eine Wendung. Das kann ein einfacher Satz sein, ein Alltagssatz. Einer, der politisch ist, Mut macht oder verletzt. Amonte Schröder-Jürss hat 24 Lebenssätze aus den Erinnerungen prominenter und nicht-prominenter Menschen zusammengetragen. Die Geschichten, die sich dahinter verbergen, sind schön und traurig, stimmen mal hoffnungsvoll, mal wütend. Und: Sie alle sind einzigartig.

Elegantly covering topics such as the nature of reality, the power of memory and the priceless value of literature, in this sophisticated collection of essays, Woolf more than ever focuses her attention on the fleeting moments of life that meaningfully shape the human experience.

How do you raise children in a world rapidly being reshaped by climate change? How do our narratives about climate change and care help us or hinder us in our efforts to get it right? Little Apocalypses seeks to explore these urgent questions, helping us navigate the existential predicament of parenting on a planet in crisis.

The concept of motherhood, often idealized as the epitome of unconditional love and nurturing, has been twisted and perverted in various cinematic works to explore darker, more complex human dynamics. Led by Bram Stoker, Shirley Jackson Award, and two-time World Fantasy Award winning editor and acclaimed film professor Danel Olson, the essayists introduce listeners to traditional portrayals of mothers in film and literature, establishing a baseline for understanding how diabolical motherhood deviates from the norm.

In this sharply observed and wryly funny collection of essays on identity, family, and belonging, Mary Walsh takes readers on a rollicking—and sometimes difficult, but never boring—journey through her life. Her subjects range from the heartbreak of growing up next door to her family, to Newfoundland’s vibrant and not altogether happy entry into the Canadian confederation, to the behind-the-scenes of her wildly popular CBC shows.

From the award-winning, New York Times best-selling author of Cod and Salt, To Catch a Fish is an entertaining and beautifully written illustrated collection of essays that explore a lifetime fascination with fishing. For as long as there have been humans, there have been humans trying to...

Leopold's essays on conservation will open the mind of any listener who gives them a chance. The first part uses essays for each of the 12 months to share the rhythm of life on his restored Wisconsin farmland, and uses the stories to branch into eye opening lessons on the history of man's use and abuse of it. The second part continues using stories from Leopold's experiences in wild places across North America to expand the lessons to a much wider view. The final part of the work seeks to lay out a better path for humanity, using solid logic and deep philosophical questioning.

Nicolas Krastev-Mckinnon propose dans cet ouvrage une lecture littéraire et philosophique de l'univers du rappeur. Sous une forme fragmentaire, l'écrivain décrit les lignes de force d'une discographie aussi complexe que brillante, qui a marqué le paysage musical français de son empreinte. Dans cette version enrichie, toutes les entrées du dictionnaire ont été revues et augmentées. Au fil de vingt nouvelles sections, Nicolas Krastev-Mckinnon intègre également les deux derniers albums de Damso - J'ai menti & BĒYĀH - à son analyse.

In der Schule, in der Arbeit, unter Freunden, in der Zeitung, am Handy – überall und ein Leben lang begegnen uns Gerede und Gerüchte. Aber warum fällt es manchmal so schwer, pikante Neuigkeiten für sich zu behalten? Woher kommt unsere Faszination für das Leben anderer und warum reden wir so gerne über andere? Und sind wir deshalb schlechte Menschen? McKinney verwebt persönliche Erlebnisse, Medienereignisse, Studien und popkulturelle Phänomene zu einer ehrlichen und erfrischenden Gegenwartsanalyse.
