Sinopse

Genre Cross Points explores the increasing integration of LGBTQ+ themes within genre fiction, particularly in graphic novels and comics. It investigates how these narratives reflect and influence societal perceptions of identity, sexuality, and representation. The book demonstrates how LGBTQ+ representation has evolved from early, often coded, appearances to today's diverse and explicit narratives, highlighting how genre fiction offers a unique space for exploring complex issues and challenging heteronormative assumptions. For instance, the book analyzes how LGBTQ+ characters, often relegated to the sidelines, take center stage in these narratives, subverting expectations. The book examines specific examples across genres like fantasy, science fiction, romance, and horror, critically analyzing narrative strategies and character development. It also considers the social and political contexts shaping these representations, such as the impact of the AIDS crisis and the fight for marriage equality. Structured in three sections, Genre Cross Points first introduces key concepts, then offers detailed analyses of specific works, and finally synthesizes findings to discuss implications for LGBTQ+ visibility and social change. The book approaches information with an academic yet accessible tone, making it valuable for scholars, educators, creators, and anyone interested in the power of storytelling.

    The Seed

    Notes on desire, reproduction, and grief, and how feminism doesn't support women struggling to have children 
       
    In pop culture as much as in policy advocacy, the feminist movement has historically left infertile women out in the cold. This book traverses the chilly landscape of miscarriage, and the particular grief that accompanies the longing to make a family. Framed by her own desire for a child, journalist Alexandra Kimball brilliantly reveals the pain and loneliness of infertility, especially as a lifelong feminist. Her experience of online infertility support groups - where women gather in forums to discuss IVF, surrogacy, and isolation - leaves her longing for a real life community of women working to break down the stigma of infertility.
       
    In the tradition of Eula Biss's On Immunity and Barbara Ehrenreich's Bright-sided, Kimball marries perceptive analysis with deep reportage - her findings show the lie behind the prevailing, and at times paradoxical, cultural attitudes regarding women's right to actively choose to have children. Braiding together feminist history, memoir, and reporting from the front lines of the battle for reproductive rights and technology, The Seed plants in readers the desire for a world where no woman is made to feel that her biology is her destiny.

  • Free Thought and Official Propaganda - cover

    Free Thought and Official...

    Bertrand Russell

    Russell discusses how governments and institutions use propaganda to shape the beliefs and actions of citizens. He argues that propaganda is often used to create a sense of unity and to suppress dissent, rather than to inform and educate the public. This can lead to a situation where people are unwilling or unable to question the status quo, which can be detrimental to the progress of society. Overall, "Free Thought and Official Propaganda" is a powerful critique of the use of propaganda in society and a passionate defence of free thought. It remains a relevant and thought-provoking essay in today's world, where propaganda and the manipulation of information continue to be pressing issues. Read in English, unabridged.

    How children engage with technology at each stage of development, from toddler to twentysomething, and how they can best be supported. 
     
     
     
    What happens to the little ones, the tweens, and the teenagers, when technology—ubiquitous in the world they inhabit—becomes a critical part of their lives? This timely book brings much-needed clarity to what we know about technology's role in child development. Better yet, it provides guidance on how to use what we know to help children of all ages make the most of their digital experiences. 
     
     
      
    From toddlers who are exploring their immediate environment to twentysomethings who are exploring their place in society, technology inevitably and profoundly affects their development. Drawing on her expertise in developmental science and design research, Katie Davis describes what happens when child development and technology design interact, and how this interaction is complicated by children's individual characteristics and social and cultural contexts. Critically, she explains how a self-directed experience of technology—one initiated, sustained, and ended voluntarily—supports healthy child development, especially when it takes place within the context of community support.
