Summary

The treatment of sexual minorities—whether lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender—varies significantly in different parts of the world. In some countries, equal rights have been achieved and progress is being made against discrimination; in others, being gay still incurs the death penalty. 
This guide examines all the colors of the sexual rainbow, unearths hidden histories, and looks at contributions from medicine and science. It also includes a unique global survey of laws that affect sexual minorities. 
 Vanessa Baird has been co-editor at New Internationalist magazine since 1986. Her previous books include, as compiler and editor, Eye to Eye Women.
Available since: 10/01/2007.

    In World War C (2021), neurosurgeon and renowned medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta explores the Covid-19 pandemic from every angle, including the mental and physical repercussions the virus has left on people of all ages. 
    As a frontliner who directly dealt with the crisis, Gupta provides key solutions to cope with Covid-19, given that the virus is likely to persist in the environment indefinitely, and explains its behavior inside the human body. He compares the Covid-19 pandemic with previous outbreaks, such as SARS and Ebola, and thoroughly describes how certain health conditions, especially obesity, make the human body more vulnerable to the virus. He affirms that the world must learn from Covid-19 to prepare for future pandemics and better handle them.

    Disclaimer: This is NOT the official book. This is a Summary Book & it does NOT accompany the official book. 
    In our compelling summary, we distill the critical insights from Pluckrose and Lindsay's rigorous investigation into this often-radical activist scholarship. Highlighting the inconsistencies and illiberal ethics of these theories, we underscore the need for a thorough understanding of their origins and evolution to effectively challenge their influence in academia, culture, and beyond. 
    Our summary of "Cynical Theories" presents a complex network of ideologies in an accessible and digestible manner. This book is not just an exploration of the evolution of contemporary thought but a call to action for those who value science, reason, and consistently liberal ethics to question and challenge the spread of this potentially harmful orthodoxy. Step into our summary and arm yourself with the knowledge needed to navigate and confront the ideological challenges of the modern world.
