Beschreibung

"Amsterdam Tales" explores the remarkable ascent of Amsterdam from a modest settlement to a global powerhouse, focusing on its Dutch Golden Age. The book attributes this transformation to strategic location, innovative economic policies, and a culture of tolerance that attracted diverse populations. Amsterdam's intricate canal system, for instance, wasn't just for aesthetic appeal; it was a carefully engineered network that facilitated trade and transport, crucial for its economic success. The book emphasizes that Amsterdam's story offers valuable lessons on globalization and the power of liberal values.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with Amsterdam's origins and its role in the Hanseatic League. It then delves into the Dutch Revolt and the city's emergence as the capital of the Dutch Republic. A significant portion is dedicated to the Dutch East India Company (VOC) and its impact on Amsterdam's growth, highlighting how the city became a haven for intellectuals and artists. Through primary sources and contemporary analysis, "Amsterdam Tales" reveals the inner workings of Amsterdam's society and economy.

    Feminism in the Wild - How Human...

    In Feminism in the Wild, Ambika Kamath and Melina Packer reveal how scientists studying animal behavior have long projected human norms and values onto animals while seeking to understand them. When scientific studies conclude that these norms and values are natural in animals, it makes it easier to think of them as natural in humans too. And because scientists, historically and to this day, largely belong to elite, powerful segments of society, the norms and values embedded into animal behavior science match those of the already powerful. How can animal behavior science escape this trap of naturalizing dominant culture? 
     
     
     
    Drawing from decades of feminist, antiracist, queer, disability justice, and Marxist contributions—including those of biologists—Kamath and Packer break down persistent assumptions in the status quo of animal behavior science and offer a multitude of alternative approaches. Core concepts in animal behavior science and evolutionary biology are carefully contextualized and critically reexamined. This unique collaboration between an animal behavior scientist and a feminist science studies scholar is an illuminating and hopeful book for anyone who is curious about how animals behave, and anyone who wants to break free from scientific approaches that perpetuate systems of oppression.

    In their search for truth and happiness, the classical philosophers overlooked one of the most important facets of our lives—sexuality. The author rectifies this error by questioning this field of knowledge and practice: What is "good" coitus? What is a "nice" ass? What is a "legal" sexual act? What is universally "true" in sexuality? Who is "perverse?" Does sex represent a momentary pleasure, or could it embody a foundation for happiness? Using concrete examples, Sylvain Bosselet deconstructs the preconceptions that hinder our freedom and hinder sexual happiness. He seeks to lay the foundations for a philosophy of sex.
