Once America’s capitalist dream town, Detroit is our country’s greatest urban failure, having fallen the longest and the farthest. But the city’s worst crisis yet (and that’s saying something) has managed to do the unthinkable: turn the end of days into a laboratory for the future. Urban planners, land speculators, neopastoral agriculturalists, and utopian environmentalists―all have been drawn to Detroit’s baroquely decaying frontier. With an eye for both the darkly absurd and the radically new Detroit-area native Mark Binelli has chronicled this convergence.

Since its foundation in 1948, the NHS has been a cornerstone of British life—we are born into it, we are looked after by it, and quite often we die in it. From the sexual revolution of the '60s to the first test tube baby, from the Mental Health Act to the Coronavirus crisis, it has made history again and again—shaping our society and culture. But the NHS has also become a battleground for some of the fiercest political contests of our time; perceived as a national treasure that needs to be preserved at all costs, and as a lumbering piece of state machinery in need of renovation.

Både velfærds- og konkurrencestaten har som analytiske perspektiver og som fungerende statsformer vist sig utilstrækkelige, når det drejer sig om at handle på klima- og biodiversitetskriserne. De to ideologisk konkurrerende statsformer, der både fylder i den offentlige debat og er på pensumlisterne på alle landets læreanstalter, hverken handler eller svarer på de enorme kriser, men er tværtimod med til at forværre dem. Og de politikere, der bebor de gamle statsformer, virker handlingslammede imens protesterne vokser.

Most of us recognize that climate change is real yet we do nothing to stop it. What is the psychological mechanism that allows us to know something is true but act as if it is not? George Marshall’s search for the answers brings him face to face with Nobel Prize-winning psychologists and Texas Tea Party activists; the world’s leading climate scientists and those who denounce them; liberal environmentalists and conservative evangelicals. What he discovers is that our values, assumptions, and prejudices can take on lives of their own, gaining authority as they are shared.

Una delle poche cose su cui pressoché tutti gli italiani, di qualunque schieramento politico, sembrano essere d’accordo è che l’energia nucleare è una cosa brutta. Le accuse sono note a tutti: il nucleare è pericoloso, costoso, lento da implementare, produce scorie radioattive e comunque non ci serve. Ma l’accusa è solo una parte del processo: se si vuole formulare un giudizio equo, occorre ascoltare anche l’altra campana.

Alle Menschen benötigen Fürsorge. Ohne Fürsorge können Kinder nicht groß werden, können Kranke nicht gesund werden, können ältere Menschen nicht alt werden. Fürsorge hält die Gesellschaft am Laufen. Doch warum wird Fürsorge als gesellschaftlicher Wert oft vernachlässigt? Die Bestseller-Autorin Susanne Mierau schreibt in ihrem neuen Hörbuch darüber, wie wichtig ein gutes Miteinander ist. Ohne Kinder würde später niemand unsere Rente bezahlen; die alten Menschen haben unsere Wohlstand aufgebaut.

Every child deserves to know that a path to a successful life exists and that they have the power to follow it. But many never set foot on that path because they grow up hearing the message that systemic forces control their destinies, or that they are at fault for everything that has gone wrong in their lives. Yet this phenomenon is not universal. Some children thrive where others do not. Why? Are there personal behaviors and institutional supports that have proven to make a difference? Agency answers with a loud and clear "yes!"

Former Minnesota Congressman and broadcast veteran Jason Lewis’s vivid account of the radical left, the media, and politics in the public arena during the Trump presidency. From Washington to Minneapolis; from the White House to the epicenter of the worst rioting since the 1960s; Lewis was in the middle of it all. The early successes, the failed midterms, and his tumultuous campaign for the US Senate in 2020 in the midst of historic chaos in his home state.

Ecological footprint accounting, first introduced in the 1990s and continuously developed, continues to be the only metric that compares overall human demand on nature with what our planet can renew—its biocapacity—and distills this into one number: how many Earths we use.

Children and adults with learning or attention challenges are not broken. They don’t need to be fixed, but they do have some roadblocks to learning as easily and enjoyably as they could. Roadblocks can be removed. A stone can be taken out of a shoe.

Historischer Blick und Zukunftsbild–Bestsellerautor Jeremy Rifkin kann beides. Er zeigt, wie industrielles Effizienzdenken alle Bereiche des Lebens durchdrungen und uns an den Rand des Abgrunds geführt hat. Ist die Menschheit noch zu retten?

American cities are distinct from almost all others in the degree to which freeways and freeway travel dominate urban landscapes. In The Drive for Dollars, Brian D. Taylor, Eric A. Morris, and Jeffrey R. Brown tell the largely misunderstood story of how freeways became the centerpiece of US urban transportation systems, and the crucial, though usually overlooked, role of fiscal politics in bringing freeways about.

For African Americans in the southern United States, the social determinants of health are influenced by a unique history that encompasses hundreds of years of slavery, injustices during the Jim Crow era, the Great Migration, the civil rights era, and contemporary experiences like the Black Lives Matter movement. Black activists, physicians, and communities continue to battle inequities and structural problems that include poverty, inadequate access to health care, incarceration, a lack of transportation, and food insecurity.
