Документально-приключенческий роман о радикальных политических экспериментах пиратов на Мадагаскаре XVII–XVIII веков. Цель романа "Пиратское Просвещение" — вернуть фокус антропологии и этнографии в их первоначальное русло, а именно — наблюдение за тем, как развивается культура и общество. Дэвид Гребер критикует европоцентричный подход, по которому "дикие народы" могут стать цивилизованными лишь под пристальным европейским надзором. На самом деле истоки либеральных и демократических идей лежат далеко за пределами "западной цивилизации".

Hendrix, formerly a pilot for the Delta Queen Steamboat Co., has worked on the Mississippi for fifty years.

In The Language Puzzle, renowned archaeologist Steven Mithen puts forward a groundbreaking new account of the origins of language. Scientists have gained new insights into the first humans of 2.8 million years ago, and how numerous species flourished but only one, Homo sapiens, survives today.

"In formula: la geopolitica umana studia l’interazione tra collettività collocate nello spazio geografico calandosi nello sguardo altrui. Oggetto della sua analisi sono le aggregazioni umane, in ogni realizzazione storica. Tribù, póleis, comuni. Fino all’epoca corrente, dominata dagli Stati-nazione, dagli imperi. Mai i singoli individui. Tantomeno i leader. Ritenuti irrilevanti, mero prodotto della realtà che pensano di determinare. Nella migliore accezione, soggetti che incarnano lo spirito del tempo. "

First published in 1979, Joan Didion's The White Album records indelibly the upheavals and aftermaths of the 1960s.

If you are an adult TCK, you probably sense that the multicultural, high mobility experiences of your childhood continue to impact your life in some way now.

My hope is that this collection of my thoughts over the last seven years of working with Third Culture Kids will create space for you to explore and make sense of the incredible life you’ve lived.

Humans have used cannabis for thousands of years, since Neolithic peoples sought out its medicinal benefits. But for the past century, its use has been largely criminalized. Stigma around cannabis has made it difficult for people of all ages to get straightforward answers about how to minimize health risks related to cannabis consumption or to understand how the plant has shaped and continues to shape society today. In Weed: Cannabis Culture in the Americas, culture writer Caitlin Donohue crafts a comprehensive and thought-provoking review of cannabis in the Western Hemisphere.
