Over the past several decades, debt has skyrocketed across the world, creating a complex web of financial obligations that have far-reaching consequences. As debt levels soar, the very foundations of economic stability are being threatened, with severe implications for future generations. This book seeks to explore the various dimensions of the global debt crisis and its impact on societies and economies. 
    At the heart of the issue lies the interconnectedness of global economies. In today’s world, financial markets, international trade, and political systems are all intricately linked. A debt crisis in one country can quickly spread to others, as seen in past global financial meltdowns. The global economy operates as a delicate balance, where debt plays a central role in fueling growth. However, when debt becomes excessive, it can destabilize entire financial systems, leading to recessions, defaults, and social upheaval. This is particularly true for countries and corporations that rely heavily on borrowing to maintain their operations and growth. 
    This book will provide an in-depth look at the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to the global debt crisis. From national debt and the borrowing practices of governments to the rising levels of consumer and corporate debt, each section will explore the different aspects of debt that contribute to this growing problem.

    An incisive and deeply candid account that explores autistic women in culture, myth, and society through the prism of the author's own diagnosis. 
     
     
     
    Until the 1980s, autism was regarded as a condition found mostly in boys. Even in our time, autistic girls and women have largely remained undiagnosed. When portrayed in popular culture, women on the spectrum often appear simply as copies of their male counterparts—talented and socially awkward. 
     
     
     
    Yet autistic women exist, and always have. They are varied in their interests and in their experiences. Autism may be relatively new as a term and a diagnosis, but not as a way of being and functioning in the world. It has always been part of the human condition. So who are these women, and what does it mean to see the world through their eyes? 
     
     
     
    In The Autists, Clara Törnvall reclaims the language to describe autism and explores the autistic experience in arts and culture throughout history. From popular culture, films, and photography to literature, opera, and ballet, she dares to ask what it might mean to re-read these works through an autistic lens—what we might discover if we allow perspectives beyond the neurotypical to take center stage.
