What's Love Got to Do with It? – Warum Liebe(n) eine gesellschaftliche Notwendigkeit ist. "Dieses Buch, das sich mit der aktuellen Bedeutung der Liebe im Leben der Schwarzen befasst und eine Vorlage für das Überleben und die Selbstbestimmung der Schwarzen bieten soll, führt uns kühn zum Kern der Sache. Uns selbst mit Liebe zu begegnen, unser Schwarzsein zu lieben, ermöglicht uns allen, zur wahren Bedeutung von Freiheit, Hoffnung und einem Leben voller Möglichkeiten zurückzufinden".

Misinformation affects us daily, from social media to politics and even personal relationships. Policing social media alone cannot solve the complex problem shaped by partisan politics and subjective interpretations of truth. In Misbelief social scientist Dan Ariely explores the behaviour of 'misbelief' that leads people to distrust accepted truths and embrace conspiracy theories. Misinformation taps into something innate in all of us, regardless of political affiliation. By understanding this psychology, we can mitigate its effects.

Cancel culture isn't just a moral panic: it erodes our ability to argue productively, listen generously and to be civil when we disagree. Whether on university campuses, in the workplace or on social media, it is a dysfunctional part of how individuals battle for power, status, and dominance. It's just one symptom of a much larger problem: why bother refuting your opponents, when you can just take away their platform or career? In this book, Lukianoff and Shlott analyze the pervasive effects of cancel culture and present a much-needed antidote for our dangerous and divisive times.

Was ist Ihre größte Schwäche? – Ich bin ein bisschen perfektionistisch. Dies ist die Standardantwort auf die knifflige letzte Frage im Bewerbungsgespräch, steht der Wille zu Perfektion doch allgemeinhin für Motivation, Leistungsbereitschaft und Entschlossenheit. Die Kehrseite: Der Druck zu Selbstoptimierung und Effizienz durchzieht inzwischen alle Lebensbereiche. Unsere Erfolge sollen immer noch größer sein, unsere Partnerschaften glücklicher, unsere Körper sportlicher, unsere Urlaube spektakulärer, unsere Einrichtungen stilvoller. Wir sind: nie gut genug.

From uncertainty and risk to ambiguity, emotion and non-verbal behaviour, life can be like a game of poker. So approach it like one, with every day critical thinking. In The Truth Detective, journalist and competitive poker player Alex O'Brien shows how we can survive and make better life decisions using the rules of the game. In a world full of uncertainty and incomplete information, this is a book about getting to the truth.

It's been said that, after 9/11, the 2008 financial crash and the COVID-19 pandemic, we're a more fearful society than ever before. Yet fear, and the panic it produces, have long been driving forces - perhaps the driving force - of world history: fear of God, of famine, war, disease, poverty, and other people. In Fear: An Alternative History of the World, Robert Peckham considers the impact of fear in history, as both a coercive tool of power and as a catalyst for social change.

In an ideal world, we'd succeed based on our actual skills and performance. But in the real world, subtle perceptions and stereotypes - about appearance, race, gender, experience and more - colour others' perceptions. The result might be that your hard work isn't noticed or appreciated, your effort doesn't lead to proportional rewards and your good ideas aren't taken seriously. But it doesn't have to be that way. As Harvard Business School Professor Laura Huang has discovered, there's a way to flip stereotypes and obstacles in your favour.

¿Sabías que hasta hace un par de siglos sujetar y envolver a los niños para que no pudieran moverse, privarlos de alimento o colgarlos de ganchos en las paredes eran prácticas habituales? ¿O que el infanticidio y la venta de niños para utilizarlos como rehenes políticos o pagar deudas de los padres son infamias que llegan casi hasta nuestros días? Sofía Lewicki, psicóloga especialista en crianza, se propone en este libro rastrear la voz de los infantes, “los que no hablan”, como fueron nombrados en la antigüedad. Para esto se vale de lo que ella llama “la crianza del reconocimiento”.

How do we measure our self-worth? For many of us, it signifies accomplishment, self-reliance, and wealth. Decades of neoliberalism have driven our definition of success. Yet, as we have amassed more achievements, we have been overwhelmed and overworked in a world of growing inequality. Should we start judging others, and ourselves, differently? In this capstone work, acclaimed sociologist Michèle Lamont argues that it is time to move our focus from having to being.

Every day we speak to ourselves and to each other, about ourselves and about others. Whether ruminating on a past event alone or gossiping with a group of friends, we move through life in a state of near-constant chatter - even during those moments we profess to wanting nothing more than some peace and quiet. So, why do we do it, and what purpose does talking serve? In this paean to conversation, neuroscientist Shane O'Mara encourages us to marvel at our brains distinct mechanisms for communicating.
