One of the most talked-about scholarly works of the past 50 years, Judith Butler's Gender Trouble is as celebrated as it is controversial. Arguing that traditional feminism is wrong to look to a natural, "essential" notion of the female, or indeed of sex or gender, Butler starts by questioning the category "woman" and continues in this vein with examinations of "the masculine" and "the feminine." Best known however, but also most often misinterpreted, is Butler's concept of gender as a reiterated social performance rather than the expression of a prior reality.

Der Zufall regiert unsere Welt. Mit welchen Zahlen man morgen im Lotto gewinnt oder wo es in zwei Jahren regnen wird, ist reine Glückssache. Trotzdem gehen wir davon aus, dass sich die Welt an berechenbare Naturgesetze hält wie eine Uhr, in der ein Zahnrad das nächste bewegt. Wenn man sich auf die Suche nach den wissenschaftlichen Wurzeln des Zufalls begibt, stößt man auf Schmetterlinge, die mit einem Flügelschlag den Lauf der Welt verändern, auf winzige Teilchen, die ihre Eigenschaften ganz zufällig festlegen, und auf genetische Mutationen, die das Leben in neue Bahnen lenken.

On the shores of Lake Tanganyika, Gombe is a community where the principal residents are chimpanzees. Through Jane Goodall's eyes we watch young Figan's rise to power and old Mike's crushing defeat. We learn how one mother rears her children to succeed, and another dooms hers to failure. We witness horrifying murders, touching moments of affection, joyous births, and wrenching deaths. As Goodall compellingly tells the story of this intimately intertwined community, we are shown human emotions stripped to their essence. In the mirror of chimpanzee life, we see ourselves reflected.
