  When he became an undertaker, Rupert Callender undertook to deal with the dead for the sake of the living. This book is his brilliant, unforgettable story—the life and work of the world’s ?rst punk undertaker—but it's also about ordinary, everyday humanity and our capacity to face death with courage and compassion, to say goodbye to the people we love in our own way. In becoming the world’s first “punk undertaker” and establishing the Green Funeral Company in Devon, UK, Ru Callender and his partner Claire challenged the stilted, structured world of the funeral industry—fusing what he had learned from his own deeply personal experiences with death with the surprising and profound answers and raw emotion he discovered in rave culture and ritual magick. From his unresolved grief for his parents and his cultural ancestors to political and religious non-conformists, social outlaws, experimental pioneers, and acid-house culture, Ru Callender has taken to a “DIY” ethos to help people navigate grief. He has carried coffins across windswept beaches, sat in pubs with caskets on beer-stained tables, helped children fire flaming arrows into their father’s funeral pyre, turned occult rituals into performance art, and, with the band members of KLF, is building the People’s Pyramid of bony bricks in Liverpool. What Remains? is a profound, deeply moving, and politically charged book that will change the way listeners think about life, death, and the all-important end-of–life experience.

  A detailed exploration of parents' fight for a safe environment for their kids, interrogating how race, class, and gender shape health advocacy 
   
   
   
  The success of food allergy activism in highlighting the dangers of foodborne allergens shows how illness communities can effectively advocate for the needs of their members. In Food Allergy Advocacy, Danya Glabau follows parents and activists as they fight for allergen-free environments, accurate labeling, the fair application of disability law, and access to life-saving medications for food-allergic children in the United States. At the same time, she shows how this activism also reproduces the culturally dominant politics of personhood and responsibility, based on an idealized version of the American family, centered around white, middle-class, and heteronormative motherhood. 
   
   
   
  By holding up the threat of food allergens to the white nuclear family to galvanize political and scientific action, Glabau shows, the movement excludes many, including Black women and disabled adults, whose families and health have too often been marginalized from public health and social safety net programs. Further, its strategies are founded on the assumption that market-based solutions will address issues of social exclusion and equal access to healthcare.

  Using textiles to understand gender and economy in Norse societies 
   
   
   
  This groundbreaking study is based on the author's systematic comparative analysis of the vast textile collections in Iceland, Greenland, Denmark, Scotland, and the Faroe Islands, materials that are largely unknown even to archaeologists and span 1,000 years. Through these garments and fragments, Hayeur Smith provides new insights into how the women of these island nations influenced international trade by producing cloth (vaðmál); how they shaped the development of national identities by creating clothing; and how they helped their communities survive climate change by reengineering clothes during the Little Ice Age. She supplements her analysis by revealing societal attitudes about weaving through the poem "Darraðarljoð" from Njál's Saga, in which the Valkyries—Óðin's female warrior spirits—produce the cloth of history and decide the fates of men and nations. 
   
   
   
  Bringing Norse women and their labor to the forefront of research, Hayeur Smith establishes the foundation for a gendered archaeology of the North Atlantic that has never been attempted before. This monumental and innovative work contributes to global discussions about the hidden roles of women in past societies in preserving tradition and guiding change.

  The Magna Carta Libertatum, commonly known as the Magna Carta, is a royal charter of rights that was signed by King John of England on June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, near Windsor. This historic document was initially drafted by Archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton in response to escalating tensions between King John and a group of discontented barons. The Magna Carta sought to resolve these tensions by outlining a series of promises and protections, aimed at securing peace between the monarchy and the nobility. 
  At its core, the Magna Carta addressed several critical grievances, promising protection for the rights of the Church, safeguarding barons from illegal imprisonment, guaranteeing access to swift justice, and imposing limitations on feudal payments to the Crown. These promises were to be enforced through the creation of a council of 25 barons, which would oversee the king's adherence to the terms. However, the charter's effectiveness was short-lived. Within a few months, Pope Innocent III annulled the document, declaring it void, as neither King John nor the rebel barons honored their commitments. This revocation led directly to the First Barons' War, a conflict that further destabilized the kingdom.
