Mohawk Interruptus is a bold challenge to dominant thinking in the fields of Native studies and anthropology.

Il totemismo, ossia il particolare fenomeno per cui un uomo o un gruppo di uomini si legano con un rapporto di parentela e di mutua protezione a una specie animale - o a piante e fenomeni naturali -, è stato variamente considerato: gli sono stati di volta in volta riconosciuti e negati carattere religioso e carattere universale; a volte è stato considerato tipico di una fase del progresso culturale; altre volte se ne è constatata l'assenza nei popoli più primitivi.

En "Atapuerca", Eudald Carbonell y Rosa M. Tristán repasan con exhaustividad y contagiosa fascinación la historia del yacimiento, sus claves y su relevancia, y los detalles de su formación y de los trabajos que en él se han realizado y se realizan en la actualidad. Con todo ello, nos sumergen en un mundo prehistórico explicado con tanta precisión que llegan a hacernos sentir parte de él.

El intenso y poderoso lenguaje de Gabriela Mistral queda de manifiesto en las vivenciales páginas de estos sorprendentes Cuadernos de asuntos varios de la autora: las lucideces, los ánimos, las desventuras, las alucinaciones, las verdades muchas y de siempre, ¿por qué no las fabulaciones? Con esa donosa manera de contar–“mi bendita lengua”, “mi lengua viva”–, nos revela ahora su vida desde ella misma, “echando a la hoguera cuanto es mío”.

Il y a environ 4 000 millions d'années, la vie est apparue sur la Terre. Mais quelle est l'histoire de son évolution ? La vie était-elle inévitable ? La race humaine, telle que nous la connaissons, était-elle prévisible ? Quels autres êtres intelligents auraient pu la remplacer ? À partir de questionnements comme ceux-ci et des réponses scientifiques qui existent déjà, Juan Luis Arsuaga nous présente les découvertes-clés de la théorie de l'évolution et nous élève vers un questionnement plus vaste encore : pourquoi sommes-nous ici ?

Wie Männer sich die Macht über Frauen nahmen und warum das jetzt aufhört. In der Natur kontrollieren Weibchen den Zugang zu Sex. Die Biologie nennt das FEMALE CHOICE. Bis zur Sesshaftwerdung galt das auch für den Menschen. Doch dann schufen die Männer eine Zivilisation unter Ausschluss der Frauen. Doch die finden langsam zu ihrer natürlichen Stärke zurück. Uralte Geschlechterverhältnisse sind endlich in Bewegung. Die Zeit ist reif, das Zusammenleben von Frauen und Männern neu zu denken.

Arbeit ist der Kern unserer modernen Gesellschaften. Das hat die Corona-Krise eindrücklich vor Augen geführt. Doch warum überlassen wir ihr einen so großen Teil unseres Lebens? Und warum arbeiten wir immer mehr, obwohl wir so viel produzieren wie noch nie? Entspricht das unserer Natur? Warum fühlen sich dann immer mehr Menschen überlastet und ausgebrannt? James Suzman legt eine andere Geschichte der Menschheit vor, die zeigt, wie die Arbeit von uns Besitz ergreifen konnte.

Face is a book of fictional vignettes that examines the fear and vestigial evolutionary habits that have caused women and men to cultivate the imagined reality that older women’s faces are unattractive, undesirable, and something to be "fixed".

Esta obra clássica, foi revisitada por seu autor, José de Souza Martins, que incorporou novos trechos e atualizou a discussão sobre as questões tratadas. O cativeiro da terra é a matriz estrutural e histórica da sociedade que somos hoje. Ele condenou a nossa modernidade e a nossa entrada no mundo capitalista a uma modalidade de coerção do trabalho. Aí encontramos a explicação de nossa lentidão histórica e a postergação da ascensão social dos condenados à servidão.

Com som els barcelonins del segle xxi? Som gent extremadament acollidora i orgullosa de la bellesa de la nostra ciutat, com diu Dan Brown a la seva última novel·la, elegants i cosmopolites (els dos últims adjectius ja no són seus), o més aviat resultem gent prudent i recelosa dels seus costums i espais? Som tan moderns, tolerants i avantguardistes com ens pensem, o el nostre progressisme acaba allà on comença el desordre d’aquest turisme que ens envaeix i ens atabala?

Nada «se vuelve viral». Si crees que una película, canción o app popular surgió de la nada para convertirse, de boca en boca, en un éxito, te estás perdiendo la historia real. Cada éxito de taquilla tiene una historia secreta de poder, influencia, emisoras oscuras y cultos apasionados que convierten algunos productos nuevos en fenómenos culturales. Incluso las ideas más brillantes se marchitan en la oscuridad si no se conectan a la red correcta.

La historia evolutiva del ser humano es relativamente reciente, nace en el S. XIX con la teoría de la evolución de Darwin. Además, ha tenido que sortear no pocos obstáculos doctrinales, ha tenido que chocar con los más aferrados dogmas religiosos y con las teorías científicas más reaccionarias. Breve Historia del Homo Sapiens nos presenta dos epopeyas paralelas, la aventura de la evolución humana desde los primates hasta la actualidad y la aventura de la investigación paleontológica. La investigación sobre los orígenes del hombre nunca está exenta de controversia.

In 1950, before Montgomery, Alabama, knew Martin Luther King Jr., before Rosa Parks refused to surrender her seat to a White passenger, before the city's famous bus boycott, a Negro man named Hilliard Brooks was shot and killed by a White police officer in a confrontation after he tried to board a city bus. Thomas Gray, who had played football with Hilliard when they were kids, was outraged by the unjustifiable shooting. Gray protested, eventually staging a major downtown march to register voters and standing up to police brutality.

Ezra Pound referred to 1922 as year one of a new era. It was the year that began with the publication of James Joyce's Ulysses and ended with the publication of TS Eliot's The Waste Land, two works that were arguably 'the sun and moon' of modernist literature, some would say of modernity itself. In Constellation of Genius, Kevin Jackson puts the titanic achievements of Joyce and Eliot in the context of the world in which their works first appeared.

This audiobook examines the media and cultural responses to the awful crimes of Brady and Hindley, whose murders provided a template for future media reporting on serial killers. It discusses the nature of evil and psychopaths and how they are represented in film, drama, novels and art. It also questions the ethics of the 'serial killing industry' and how the modern cultural fixation on celebrity has extended to serial killers and it explores the impact on the journalists and police officers from being involved in such cases including some interviews with them.

Thrive or die: That's the rule of evolution. Despite this brutal logic, some species have learned to survive in even the most hostile conditions. Others couldn't - and perished. While incremental genetic adaptations hone the physiology of nearly every creature on this planet, there's another evolutionary force that is just as important: the power of choice. In this explosive investigation into the limits of endurance, journalist Scott Carney discovers how humans can wedge control over automatic physiological responses into the breaking point between stress and biology.

The fear of campus sexual assault has become an inextricable part of the college experience. But why is sexual assault such a common feature of college life? And what can be done to prevent it? Drawing on the Sexual Health Initiative to Foster Transformation (SHIFT) at Columbia University, the most comprehensive study of sexual assault on a campus to date, Jennifer S. Hirsch and Shamus Khan present an entirely new framework that emphasizes sexual assault’s social roots
