The Politics of Digital...

Felix Heidenreich, Florian...

Digitization is transforming our world economically, culturally, and psychologically. The influx of new forms of communication, networking, and business opportunities, as well as new types of distraction, self-observation, and control into our societies represents an epochal challenge. Following Bernard Stiegler's concept of pharmacology, Felix Heidenreich and Florian Weber-Stein propose to view these new forms as digital pharmaka. Properly dosed, they can enable new self-relationships and forms of sociality; in the case of overdose, however, there is a risk of intoxication.
In this essay, Felix Heidenreich, Florian Weber-Stein, and, in a detailed interview, Bernard Stiegler analyze this complex change in our world and develop new skills to use digital pharmaka.

How to Lose Yourself - An...

The Buddha and His Followers

Inviting new translations of classical Buddhist texts about why the self is an illusion—and why giving it up can free us from suffering 
 
 
 
From self-realization and self-promotion to self-help and the selfie, the modern world encourages us to be self-obsessed. We are even told that finding ourselves is the key to happiness. Better to lose yourself! More than 2,500 years ago, the Buddha argued that the self is an illusion—and that our belief in it is the cause of most, if not all, of our suffering. How to Lose Yourself presents lively, accessible, and expert new translations of ancient Buddhist writings about the central, unique, and powerful Buddhist teaching of "no-self." 
 
 
 
Drawn from three important Buddhist traditions, these essential Indian, Tibetan, and Chinese writings provide a rich sampling of the ways Buddhist philosophers have understood the idea that we are selfless persons—and why this insight is so therapeutic. When we let go of the self, we are awakened to the presence of all things as they truly are, and we let go of the anxiety, fear, greed, and hatred that are the source of all suffering.

Sex without Regrets - Learning...

Nora Fozard

Is sexual sin sabotaging your best life? (Is sexual sin sabotaging your quest for love?)
Who ever imagined that sexually transmitted disease would be on the rise in the 21st century? That as teen pregnancies declined, pregnancies of unmarried women would increase? That 20th century shock at a leader’s hidden sexual sin would dissolve into 21st century indifference about a leader’s public bragging?
This update of Nora Fozard’s Christian classic about the secrets of sex and marriage examines the root causes of sexual sin and offers practical solutions from the Bible for women, men, and church leaders. It recommends specific steps regain to regain the Godly intimacy lost in marriages to the sexual sins of pornography, lust, fornication, and adultery. It guides parents with tools for leading their children to healthy, Godly ways of relating, and encourages unmarried people, from teens to senior adults, to experience the dignity of God’s way of living.
Each chapter includes specific challenges for women, men, and the Christian church. Nora speaks directly to married people tempted to sin as well as those unmarried struggling to overcome lust and be faithful to God. Powerful examples from more than 40 years of ministry reveal the consequences sexual sin has had in the lives of people from teenagers to senior citizens. And equally powerful examples from her own life show how these Bible principles work when they’re put to the text.
Sexual sin traumatizes children. It undermines church and community leadership. It undermines the happy, healthy families we all want. Learn to enjoy the happy, healthy families and relationships we all want.
Here’s strength to resist sexual sin!

Downtown Juárez - Underworlds of...

Howard Campbell

At least 200,000 people have died in Mexico's so-called drug war, and the worst suffering has been in Ciudad Juárez, across the border from El Paso, Texas. How did it get so bad? After three decades studying that question, Howard Campbell doesn't believe there is any one answer. Misguided policies, corruption, criminality, and the borderland economy are all factors. But none of these reasons explain how violence in downtown Juárez has become heartbreakingly "normal." 
 
 
 
A rigorous yet moving account, Downtown Juárez is informed by the sex workers, addicts, hustlers, bar owners, human smugglers, migrants, and down-and-out workers struggling to survive in an underworld where horrifying abuses have come to seem like the natural way of things. Even as Juárez's elite northeast section thrives on the profits of multinational corporations, and law-abiding citizens across the city mobilize against crime and official malfeasance, downtown's cantinas, barrios, and brothels are tyrannized by misery.

A Modest Proposal

Jonathan Swift

'I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.'

One of the most-studied pieces of satire in history, 'A Modest Proposal' is a darkly funny yet scathing critique of British colonialism from an Irish lens.

First published in 1729 to much backlash, Swift goes to great lengths to illustrate a potential solution to poverty and overpopulation in Ireland: parents undergoing economic hardship ought to sell their children as food for the upper classes. A masterclass in irony, Swift delves into the financial benefits of his suggestion, even offering numerous ways to prepare babies for consumption. A powerful and shocking criticism of the dire conditions of Ireland and indifference of the British government at the time, 'A Modest Proposal' remains widely read to this day. This audiobook edition is narrated by the talented Malk Williams.
Jonathan Swift (1667 – 1745) was an Irish writer and satirist, famed for his deadpan style of writing. He is best remembered for his satirical works 'A Modest Proposal (1729) and Gulliver's Travels (1726). A master in the art of irony, future works of satire in his style of hyperbole have subsequently been classed as 'Swiftian'.
