Clear Bright Future
Penguin UK, 2019. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 368. A passionate defence of humanity and a work of radical optimism from the international bestselling author of PostcapitalismHow do we preserve what makes us human in an age of uncertainty? Are we now just consumers shaped by market forces? A sequence of DNA? A collection of base instincts? Or will we soon be supplanted by algorithms and A.I. anyway?In Clear Bright Future, Paul Mason calls for a radical, impassioned defence of the human being, our universal rights and freedoms and our power to change the world around us. Ranging from economics to Big Data, from neuroscience to the culture wars, he draws from his on-the-ground reporting from mass protests in Istanbul to riots in Washington, as well as his own childhood in an English mining community, to show how the notion of humanity has become eroded as never before.In this book Paul Mason argues that we are still capable - through language, innovation and co-operation - of shaping our future. He offers a vision of humans as more than puppets, customers or cogs in a machine. This work of radical optimism asks: Do you want to be controlled? Or do you want something better?.

Closing the gap: exploring the history of gender relations
Amsterdam University Press. Hardcover. Pp: 287. Pleidooi voor een betere machtsverdeling tussen man en vrouw op basis van historische analyse Een mannelijke overheersing staat een duurzame ontwikkeling van de menselijke samenleving in de weg, meent voormalig topman Allerd Stikker. Het is van levensbelang dat schijnbare tegenpolen als vrouw en man, natuur en cultuur, ecologie en economie in de toekomst hun onderlinge evenwicht hervinden omdat beide uiteindelijk meer baat zullen hebben bij interactie dan bij isolatie. Aan de hand van een encyclopedisch en rijk geļllustreerd overzicht van de verhouding tussen man en vrouw door de eeuwen heen, bepleit Allerd Stikker een gedeelde machtsstructuur waarin zowel mannen als vrouwen hun aandeel hebben. Zijn analyse van vaak vooringenomen overwegingen en omgevingsfactoren die tot de ondergeschikte positie van de vrouw in de samenleving hebben geleid, bieden aanknopingspunten voor ondernemingen en instituten die de carričre van vrouwen in hun organisatie willen bevorderen.

Combineer wat je hebt. Duurzaamheid door het verbinden van maatschappelijke functies
Eburon Uitgeverij B.V. Paperback. Pp: 150. Zorg in de eigen woning ontvangen is prettiger en goedkoper. Een snelweg die energie opwekt en transporteert is beter voor het milieu en goedkoper. Onder steeds meer mensen groeit het inzicht dat dergelijke combinaties inkomsten opbrengen en kosten besparen. Onder steeds meer professionals zijn begrippen als de combinatie van maatschappelijke functies en multifunctioneel bouwen gemeengoed. Niet eerder is een diepgaande analyse gemaakt van wat (re)combineren nu werkelijk is. In dit boek is een methode gevonden en worden aanknopingspunten gegeven om combinaties te kunnen beoordelen: economisch, bestuurskundig, moreel en politiek. Daarmee is dit boek de eerste systematische analyse van combinatie en kan het zo een bijdrage leveren aan wetenschap en praktijk. Het is geschreven door een groep auteurs met kennis van uiteenlopende sectoren als zorg, energie, mobiliteit en gebiedsontwikkeling. Zij zijn afkomstig uit wetenschap en praktijk. Door in dit boek hun kennis te bundelen ontstaat een overzicht over de opkomst van de combinatie van maatschappelijke functies, en over de betekenis daarvan voor een duurzame samenleving.

Comics and Columbine
Sparsile Books Limited, 2018. Paperback. Pp: 276. THE SCHOOL SHOOTER WHO DIDN'T SHOOT Growing up an autistic loner, Thomas Campbell's schooldays were a living nightmare of bullying and abuse that saw him in psychiatric care by age 8. The target of entire classrooms, he developed a lifelong hatred of all things educational. This hatred - the shared thinking of the school shooter - has gifted him with a unique insight into the slaughter we are witnessing in our schools now. Written from the perspective of the classroom avenger, it explores their distorted thinking and reveals the 'socially acceptable' evils that provoke such a lethal response. 'In this angry, tender, and extraordinary work, Thomas Campbell writes with fierce immediacy from the cultural ultra-violet of the Asperger spectrum, allowing us a crucial glimpse into the emotional gulag to which we thoughtlessly sentence thousands daily, and perhaps moderating our disingenuous surprise when another awkward loner takes an assault rifle to class for Show and Tell. Written with a lucid honesty, unafraid of its own unavoidable subjectivity. Comics and Columbine is the slap in the face that we badly needed and deserved, delivered in a clear and ringing voice from the white-hot heart of the experience. It is a voice that we ignore to our considerable loss, and at our considerable peril. Campbell has written what in my opinion is a beautiful narrative about an irredeemably ugly subject. I really cannot recommend this vital and necessary book too strongly.' Alan Moore, Author of Watchmen/V for Vendetta/ From Hell. ISBN: 9781999871345. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Comics, Culture, and Religion. Faith Imagined
Bloomsbury Academic, 2023. Hardcover. Pp: 264. This open access book offers an overview of the relations between comics and religion from the perspective of cultural sociology. How do comics function in religions and how does religion appear in comics? And how do graphic narratives inform us about contemporary society and the changing role of religion? Contributing scholars use international examples to explore the diversity of religions, spirituality, and dispersed notions of the sacred, including Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Indian, and Japanese religions. In addition, the rituals, ethics, and worldviews that surface in the comics milieu are discussed. With the growing popularity and influence of comics and graphic novels in contemporary culture, this book provides a valuable addition to the discussion of the medium, focusing on religious and sociological aspects. A rich resource for both students and scholars in popular culture, media studies, and religion. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license on www.bloomsburycollections.com.

The Coming Famine. The Global Food Crisis and What We Can Do To Avoid It
University of California Press, 2010. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 224. In "The Coming Famine", Julian Cribb lays out a vivid picture of impending planetary crisis - a global food shortage that threatens to hit by mid-century - that would dwarf any in our previous experience. Cribb's comprehensive assessment describes a dangerous confluence of shortages - of water, land, energy, technology, and knowledge - combined with the increased demand created by population and economic growth. Writing in brisk, accessible prose, Cribb explains how the food system interacts with the environment and with armed conflict, poverty, and other societal factors. He shows how high food prices and regional shortages are already sending shockwaves into the international community. But, far from outlining a doomsday scenario, "The Coming Famine" offers a strong and positive call to action, exploring the greatest issue of our age and providing practical suggestions for addressing each of the major challenges it raises.

Conceptualising the Social World. Principles of Social Analysis
Cambridge University Press, 2011. Paperback. Pp: 333. This comprehensive and authoritative statement of fundamental principles of sociological analysis integrates approaches that are often seen as mutually exclusive. John Scott argues that theorising in sociology and other social sciences is characterised by the application of eight key principles of sociological analysis: culture, nature, system, structure, action, space-time, mind and development. He considers the principal contributions to the study of each of these dimensions in their historical sequence in order to bring out the cumulative character of knowledge. Showing that the various principles can be combined in a single disciplinary framework, Scott argues that sociologists can work most productively within an intellectual division of labour that transcends artificial theoretical and disciplinary differences. Sociology provides the central ideas for conceptualising the social, but it must co-exist productively with other social science disciplines and disciplinary areas. ISBN: 9780521711364.

De condor en de kolibrie. Oorlog en vrede in 2015
VBK - Houtekiet, 2015. Paperback. Pp: 160. Toen in 1989 de Berlijnse muur viel, was er euforie: nu de Koude Oorlog voorbij was, zou de wereld een stuk vredevoller en idyllischer worden. Maar het ontwaken volgde snel, eerst met de Iraakse inval in Koeweit in augustus 1990, later met de burgeroorlog in het voormalige Joegoslaviė en de genocide in Rwanda. De drie decennia sinds de val van het communisme zijn echter niet alleen een verhaal van geweld en bloedvergieten, want in veel delen van de wereld is het rustiger dan ooit tevoren. In De condor en de kolibrie brengt Mark Heirman, die al zijn hele carričre lang gefascineerd is door het samenspel van conflict en harmonie, een heldere en genuanceerde kijk op de wereld sinds 1989. Een wereld waar wrede oorlogen zijn uitgevochten maar waar ook hoop en vrede is. Een onmisbaar boek om het nieuws van vandaag te begrijpen.ISBN: 9789089243324. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Confessions of an Eco Sinner
eden project books, 2009. Paperback. Pp: 400. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Ever wondered if declaring support for fair-trade and then chucking Kenyan beans from your shopping trolley to reduce food miles really added up? Or whether the women in Bangladeshi sweatshops really want you to stop buying the clothes from their sewing machines? Or how the system works when you dump stuff but never buy from a charity shop? While none of us should stop trying, it was never easy being green. Mindful of his footprint, Fred goes in search of the source of the cotton in his shirt, the prawns in his curry and the people who grew, mined or made all his stuff in an attempt to discover the true story behind our everyday things. This compelling story of his travels moves green thinking on to a new, more sophisticated plane. ISBN: 9781905811120. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
