Story2
This audiobook examines the media and cultural responses to the awful crimes of Brady and Hindley, whose murders provided a template for future media reporting on serial killers. It discusses the nature of evil and psychopaths and how they are represented in film, drama, novels and art. It also questions the ethics of the 'serial killing industry' and how the modern cultural fixation on celebrity has extended to serial killers and it explores the impact on the journalists and police officers from being involved in such cases including some interviews with them.

As one of the last remaining survivors of the Great Depression and the Second World War, I will not go gently into that good night. I want to tell you what the world looks like through my eyes, so you can help change it.... In November 2013, 91-year-old Yorkshireman, RAF veteran, and ex-carpet salesman Harry Leslie Smith’s Guardian article – "This year, I will wear a poppy for the last time" – was shared almost 60,000 times on Facebook and started a huge debate about the state of society.

Combining political theory with ethnographic research among the Mohawks of Kahnawà:ke, a reserve community in what is now Southwestern Quebec, Audra Simpson examines their struggles to articulate and maintain political sovereignty through centuries of settler colonialism.

Story1
When you think of evolution, the picture that most likely comes to mind is a straight-forward progression, the iconic illustration of a primate morphing into a proud, upright human being. But in reality, random events have played huge roles in determining the evolutionary histories of everything from lions to lobsters to humans. However, random genetic novelties are most likely to become fixed in small populations. It is mathematically unlikely that this will happen in large ones.

Al Qaeda is no longer the central organizing force that aids or authorizes terrorist attacks or recruits terrorists. It is now more a source of inspiration for terrorist acts carried out by independent local groups that have branded themselves with the Al Qaeda name. Building on his previous groundbreaking work on the Al Qaeda network, forensic psychiatrist Marc Sageman has greatly expanded his research to explain how Islamic terrorism emerges and operates in the 21 century.

The fear of campus sexual assault has become an inextricable part of the college experience. But why is sexual assault such a common feature of college life? And what can be done to prevent it? Drawing on the Sexual Health Initiative to Foster Transformation (SHIFT) at Columbia University, the most comprehensive study of sexual assault on a campus to date, Jennifer S. Hirsch and Shamus Khan present an entirely new framework that emphasizes sexual assault’s social roots

Past antidrug campaigns actually encouraged drug use. A few years ago, America stopped dropping acid altogether. The meth epidemic peaked a long, long time ago. NAFTA opened the border and created a bonanza for cocaine and meth traffickers just as President Clinton knew it would. President Reagan may have inadvertently caused the crack epidemic. Kids today are doing fewer illegal drugs than kids from any time in the recent past, and for a surprising reason.

Story2
Are you happy? Right now? Happy enough? As happy as everyone else? Could you be happier if you tried harder? After she packed up her British worldview (that most things were basically rubbish) and moved to America, journalist and documentary filmmaker Ruth Whippman found herself increasingly perplexed by the American obsession with one topic above all others: happiness. The subject came up everywhere: at the playground swings, at the meat counter in the supermarket, and even at the gynecologist.

Wie lebten Frauen in der Stein- und Bronzezeit? Wie waren die Geschlechterverhältnisse in der Zeit vor Erfindung der Schrift? Bis vor Kurzem waren alle Antworten auf diese Fragen mehr oder weniger Spekulation. Doch seit DNA-Analysen für die prähistorische Forschung zur Verfügung stehen, hat sich dies geändert. Die Wissenschaftsjournalistin Karin Bojs trägt die neuesten Ergebnisse zusammen und fragt, wann und warum das Patriarchat entstand. Die Prähistorikerin Marija Gimbutas hatte seit den 50er Jahren eine Theorie entwickelt, nach der in „Alteuropa“ eher friedliche, matrilineare Gesellschaften existiert hätten.

È noto che il mondo sta cambiando. Molto, quasi tutto ci porta a prevedere la fine della vita per come ora la conosciamo sulla Terra. La catastrofe (dal greco katastrophé, ‘rovesciamento’) che il genere umano sperimenta e sperimenterà non è però la prima: tutto quel che conosciamo è nato da una catastrofe, si è andato modificando e assestando attraverso catastrofi, e con una catastrofe andrà a terminare – o a proseguire, ma in modo radicalmente diverso.

In che modo la tv e i social media sono diventati così pervasivi? Come mai si ha la sensazione di vivere in un tempo strano, talvolta estremamente compresso e talvolta profondamente dilatato? E perché ci sembra sempre che ci manchi un quadro generale delle cose, che il nostro sguardo si fissi su alcuni particolari, ingranditi a dismisura?

Un viaggio nel mondo dell'antropologia attraverso dieci parole – essere, convivere, comunicare, dove e quando, crescere, specchiarsi, rappresentarsi, donare, credere, nutrirsi –, per avvicinarsi a una disciplina che può aiutarci a interpretare il rimescolamento sempre più rapido della realtà cui stiamo assistendo e comprendere meglio ciò che accade nelle nostre città, strade e vite. L'antropologia culturale, nata come studio delle culture dei popoli lontani dall'Occidente, oggi ha allargato il suo campo di azione fino a occuparsi del qui e ora.

Abitare è una delle principali caratteristiche dell'essere umano e la casa è il luogo umano per eccellenza. Domandare a qualcuno «dove vivi?» vuol dire chiedere notizie sul posto in cui si svolge la sua attività quotidiana, ma soprattutto su quello che dà senso alla sua vita. Servendosi anche di un suggestivo giro del mondo tra le architetture vernacolari, il libro va in cerca del senso profondo dell'abitare.

Anhand der Produktion von und dem Umgang mit Müll schreibt Roman Köster eine erhellende Geschichte unserer Spezies.

O Brasil atualmente é o segundo país no mundo em número de cirurgias plásticas, só perde para os Estados Unidos. Homens e mulheres em busca da perfeição corporal são cortados, costurados, espetados por agulhas, queimados por raios laser, besuntados e massageados com cremes.

Com base na arqueogenética, cientistas como Johannes Krause traçaram a rota das ondas migratórias que povoaram o mundo, lançando luz sobre aspectos do passado que até então permaneciam um mistério. Krause e o jornalista Thomas Trappe reescrevem um dos capítulos mais interessantes desse percurso: o povoamento da Europa. Além disso, detalham a cultura dos povos que viviam lá no período pré-histórico, formados por hábeis artesãos, por pessoas que enterravam os mortos com joias de ouro muito antes dos faraós do Egito e por caçadores de grandes animais que pereceram na Era do Gelo.
