Story
What makes “cults” so intriguing and frightening? What makes them powerful? The reason why so many of us binge Manson documentaries by the dozen and fall down rabbit holes researching suburban moms gone QAnon is because we’re looking for a satisfying explanation for what causes people to join - and more importantly, stay in - extreme groups. We secretly want to know: could it happen to me? Amanda Montell’s argument is that, on some level, it already has.

Story
Amanda Montell, feminist linguist and features editor at online magazine Byrdie, explains why words matter and why it’s imperative that women embrace their unique relationship with language. Drawing on fascinating research, and moving effortlessly between history and pop culture, Montell deconstructs language - from insults and cursing to grammar and pronunciation - to reveal the ways it has been used for centuries to gaslight women and keep them from gaining equality.

Story
Utilizing the linguistic insights of her “witty and brilliant” (Blyth Roberson, author of America the Beautiful?) first book Wordslut and the sociological explorations of her breakout hit Cultish, Amanda Montell now turns her erudite eye to the inner workings of the human mind and its biases in her most personal and electrifying work yet. Montell delves into a cornucopia of the cognitive biases and argues that in the modern information age, our brain’s coping mechanisms have been overloaded, and our irrationality turned up to an eleven.

Story
Sinn, wo steckst du? – Warum wir über die falschen Dinge zu viel nachdenken. Jede Generation hat ihre eigene Krise.Um die Last des Informationszeitalters zu bewältigen, riskiert unser Verstand so manches Ausweichmanöver: Wir lassen uns von Online-Astrologen in Jobfragen beraten, vergöttern (oder verdammen) Taylor Swift, als sei sie unsere eigene Mutter, klicken uns paranoid durch Insta-Profile und bringen unser Weltbild durch Algorithmen ins Wanken.
