Sinopse

Regional Identity Variations explores the diverse experiences of LGBTQ individuals worldwide, highlighting how geography profoundly shapes self-disclosure, policy support, and legal recognition. The book argues that LGBTQ experiences aren't monolithic; instead, they're deeply affected by local cultural norms, political systems, and economic realities, leading to significant regional variations.

 
One intriguing concept discussed is the Visibility Paradox, illustrating how increased public awareness can both empower and endanger LGBTQ individuals based on their socio-political environment. The book examines Policy Diffusion, analyzing how legal advancements in one area influence policy changes elsewhere, or fail to do so.

 
It begins by defining region beyond simple geography and then delves into patterns of public disclosure, policy support, and legal recognition across continents. Utilizing survey data, ethnographic studies, and legal analyses, the book offers a unique perspective by combining quantitative analysis with qualitative insights.

 
The study connects to human rights law, international relations, and public health and aims to inform a broad audience, including policymakers, activists, and anyone interested in the global landscape of LGBTQ rights. By moving beyond surface-level comparisons, Regional Identity Variations provides a holistic understanding of LGBTQ experiences, offering practical implications for promoting equality globally.

    Don't You Ever - My Mother and...

    From a prizewinning journalist, Mary Carter Bishop, a moving and beautifully rendered memoir about the half-brother she didn’t know existed that hauntingly explores family, class, secrets, and fate. 
    Applying for a passport as an adult, Mary Carter Bishop made a shocking discovery. She had a secret half-brother. Her mother, a farm manager’s wife on a country estate, told Mary Carter the abandoned boy was a youthful ""mistake"" from an encounter with a married man. There’d been a home for unwed mothers; foster parents; an orphanage. 
    Nine years later, Mary Carter tracked Ronnie down at the barbershop where he worked, and found a near-broken man—someone kind, and happy to meet her, but someone also deeply and irreversibly damaged by a life of neglect and abuse at the hands of an uncaring system. He was also disfigured because of a rare medical condition that would eventually kill him, three years after their reunion. During that window, Mary Carter grew close to Ronnie, and as she learned more about him she became consumed by his story. How had Ronnie’s life gone so wrong when hers had gone so well? How could she reconcile the doting, generous mother she knew with a woman who could not bring herself to acknowledge her own son? 
    Digging deep into her family’s lives for understanding, Mary Carter unfolds a sweeping story of religious intolerance, poverty, fear, ambition, class, and social expectations. Don’t You Ever is a modern Dickensian tale about a child seemingly cursed from birth; a woman shattered by guilt; a husband plagued by self-doubt; a prodigal daughter whose innocence was cruelly snatched away—all living in genteel central Virginia, a world defined by extremes of rural poverty and fabulous wealth. 
    A riveting memoir about a family haunted by a shameful secret, Don’t You Ever is a powerful story of a woman’s search for her long-hidden sibling, and the factors that profoundly impact our individual destinies.

    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.
