As a girl in New York City in the 1940s, Mildred "Millie" Dresselhaus was taught that there were only three career options open to women: secretary, nurse, or teacher. In Carbon Queen, science writer Maia Weinstock describes how, with curiosity and drive, Dresselhaus defied expectations and forged a career as a pioneering scientist and engineer. Dresselhaus made highly influential discoveries about the properties of carbon and other materials and helped reshape our world in countless ways—from electronics to aviation to medicine to energy.

Fearless Women tells the story of women who dared to take destiny into their own hands. They were feminists and antifeminists, activists and homemakers, victims of abuse and pathbreaking professionals. Inspired by the nation's ideals and fueled by an unshakeable sense of right and wrong, they wouldn't take no for an answer. In time, they carried the country with them. Elizabeth Cobbs gives voice to fearless women on both sides of the aisle, most of whom considered themselves patriots.

Lust. Gluttony. Greed. Sloth. Wrath. Envy. Pride. These so-called ‘deadly sins’, consecrated as an essential pillar of divinity, have been used by the patriarchy to control women in particular and keep them small throughout our history. What would happen if we stopped trying to be ‘good’? In On Our Best Behaviour, Elise Loehnen looks at the ways in which women have been penned by the fake morality of the sins, and how we find ourselves complicit in denying ourselves a full existence for fear of crossing some sort of line.

Over the past year, we have seen a profound awakening. Institutions and communities have taken down statues and flags, the names of white supremacists in universities and on buildings have been replaced and as we continue to see action, we are also collectively unlearning incorrect history and leaning hard into the truth. In this radical work, social entrepreneur, philanthropic innovator and public academic, Rachel Cargle breaks down KEA - knowledge, empathy and action - and how these elements serve as a lens to reimagine everything from racial justice to relationships to education and beyond.

We congratulate ourselves when we resist the donut in the office breakroom. We celebrate our restraint when we hold back from sending an email in anger. We feel virtuous when we wake up at dawn to get a jump on the day. We put others’ needs ahead of our own and believe this makes us exemplary. In On Our Best Behavior, journalist Elise Loehnen explains that these impulses—often lauded as unselfish, distinctly feminine instincts—are actually ingrained in us by a culture that reaps the benefits, via an extraordinarily effective collection of mores known as the Seven Deadly Sins.

Le harem et les cousins est un ouvrage remarquable et dérangeant à plusieurs titres. Il dérange par la vigueur de ses hypothèses et l'ampleur des problèmes qu'il soulève, par les liens qu'il établit entre une histoire plurimillénaire et les réalités les plus quotidiennes, enfin par son extraordinaire liberté de ton pour traiter de choses graves. Avec cette œuvre prend véritablement corps en France une anthropologie de la Méditerranée faisant ressortir des parentés structurelles, jusque-là plus ressenties qu'analysées, entre les sociétés établies autour de cette mer.

Tutto è corpo, il corpo è tutto. Il corpo ci rende potenti e vitali, ci umilia e ci offende. Il corpo è una vittima. Il corpo è un oppressore. Il corpo è violato, straziato, ucciso. Il corpo è arma di protesta, strumento di piacere. Il corpo nasce, soffre, gode, muore. Il corpo è vulnerabile; ma la vulnerabilità del corpo è una forza di liberazione. Olivia Laing ha capito di essere corpo innumerevoli volte nel corso della sua vita: ogni volta che è scesa in piazza a manifestare, in ogni rapporto sessuale, ogni volta che ha temuto per la sua incolumità.

The Second World War represents one of humanity’s greatest tragedies. Yet in the thick of cruelty, suffering, and loss, ordinary women secretly stood against the Nazi regime, selflessly serving as bearers of peace and hope.

Il Tantra è la metodologia che permette di purificare l'amore da tutto ciò che lo avvelena. Per capirlo, è essenziale partire da una comprensione fondamentale, ovvero che noi siamo una realtà energetica, ed esiste un'unica energia vitale che opera attraverso di noi. Come Osho spiega, "è la stessa energia vitale che al livello più basso si manifesta come energia sessuale, e al livello più elevato si manifesta come spirituale. Pertanto, secondo me, non esiste opposizione di sorta, nessun conflitto."

In 1977, Bonnie Robichaud accepted a job at the Department of Defence military base in North Bay, Ontario. After a string of dead-end jobs, with five young children at home, Robichaud was ecstatic to have found a unionized job with steady pay, benefits, and vacation time. After her supervisor began to sexually harass and intimidate her, her story could have followed the same course as countless women before her: endure, stay silent, and eventually quit. Instead, Robichaud filed a complaint after her probation period was up.

Fins i tot enmig de la foscor, en un dels llocs més durs del planeta, s’hi poden obrir escletxes d’esperança que transformen vides per sempre. Al camp de refugiats de Xatila, al Líban, la llum va entrar amb en Majdi. Aquest pintor de façanes palestí va formar un equip de bàsquet femení per apartar les nenes d’un destí dramàtic que sovint comença amb un matrimoni infantil i acaba en una espiral de maltractaments, drogues i crims d’honor.

Westover, a girls' high school in Middlebury, Connecticut, has evolved from a finishing school for the Protestant elite, including F. Scott Fitzgerald's first love, to a meritocracy for pupils of many religions and races from all around the world.

Men are responsible for all unwanted pregnancies. Why? Ovulation is involuntary. Ejaculation is not. Yet, it's women who are expected to do the work of pregnancy prevention. Why must women be responsible for men's bodies, as well as their own? Rather than endlessly exploring how and why we control women's bodies in the highly polarised anti-abortion and pro-choice 'debate', Ejaculate Responsibly makes a witty and unflinching case for why men must be held accountable for their reproductive choices.
