In 1987, somebody shoved a flyer into the hand of Peter Staley: Massive AIDS demonstration, it announced. After four years on Wall Street as a closeted gay man, Staley was familiar with the homophobia common on trading floors. He also knew that he was not beyond the reach of HIV, having recently been diagnosed with AIDS-related complex. A week after the protest, Staley found his way to a packed meeting of the AIDS Coalition To Unleash Power - ACT UP - in the West Village. It would prove to be the best decision he ever made. 

In Feminist, Queer, Crip, Alison Kafer imagines a different future for disability and disabled bodies. Challenging the ways in which ideas about the future and time have been deployed in the service of compulsory able-bodiedness and able-mindedness, Kafer rejects the idea of disability as a predetermined limit. 

Die Nutzung fossiler Energieträger wie Kohle und Öl verschärft den Klimawandel, und wir müssen sie so schnell wie möglich ersetzen. Nur, was sind gute Alternativen? Und schaffen erneuerbare Energien es, unseren Energiehunger in Zukunft zu stillen? Sind sie so verlässlich wie die alten Energielieferanten? In diesem gemeinsam mit Studierenden gestalteten Hörbuch untersuchen die Autoren kurz, anschaulich und verständlich, was erneuerbare Energien aus Sonne, Wasser oder Erdwärme energietechnisch schaffen und wie sie sich im Vergleich untereinander bewerten lassen.

If American government is to work, it must do so in the center - where open discussion, hard negotiation, and effective compromise take place. No living politician knows this better than former Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, who served for 40 years in state and national government, including 24 in the United States Senate and a campaign for the vice presidency. In this vivid account of his political life, Senator Lieberman shows how legislative progress and all-inclusive government occurs when politicians reject extremism and embrace productive compromise.

Noch nie wurden Impfstoffe so schnell zugelassen und so wenig getestet. Noch nie wurden genbasierte, experimentelle Substanzen so vielen gesunden Menschen verabreicht. Noch nie gab es so viele Todesfälle und Nebenwirkungen im Zusammenhang mit einer Impfung. Und das ist erst die Spitze des Eisberges, denn die Langzeitfolgen könnten noch wesentlich gravierender ausfallen. Das Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, zuständig für die Erfassung von Nebenwirkungen bei Impfschäden, ist mit der Bearbeitung der gemeldeten Verdachtsfälle bereits völlig überlastet.

Based on decades of expertise in envisioning and articulating policy options, Paul Laudicina lays out four vastly different visions for America's future. In Roadmap to a Brighter Future, he outlines why the best version of America will only come about if the correct actions are taken now - and outlines the 10 steps needed to decisively tackle our most pervasive problems and address critical priorities. 

Why a book on health care? Our systems have long been broken, even before the Covid-19 pandemic hit. The great progress in medicine is just not affordable any longer. Widespread frustration prevails and finger pointing in a silo-mentality are dominating the public narrative on the matter. Why have we missed the train of digitalization and value-based principles in health care? Any other industry has long recognized that customer focus is the holy grail to success. But, in health care, why have we so terribly lost focus on our ultimate customer - the patient?

In Your Life Depends on It, Talya Miron-Shatz explores the preventable ways we make bad choices about everything from nutrition to medication, from pregnancy to end-of-life care.

This updated and revised edition of Jett’s classic book not only provides a timely overview of American ambassadorship for Foreign Service Officers, aspiring diplomats, and interested citizens, but also calls for much-needed reform, describing the dire implications of failing to change our ambassadorial appointments process for the future of American diplomatic practice and foreign policy.

Unsere Kinder drohen die großen Verlierer der Corona-Krise zu werden - und zwar aufgrund eines schlechten Krisenmanagements. In diesem Buch zeigt Marita Kühne schonungslos auf, wie die Politik nicht nur in Sachen Schulpolitik versagt. Krisen fordern uns heraus, doch wir drohen an verschiedenen Faktoren zu scheitern. Durch die Wirren der Jahrhunderte haben uns der Verstand, unser Urteilsvermögen und die Vernunft getragen.

Un ensayo que analiza el modo en que el exceso de legislación y el aumento de la burocracia han degradado el papel de los docentes y la calidad de la enseñanza secundaria en España. ¿Han servido ocho leyes generales de Educación para conseguir un sistema inclusivo y de calidad? ¿O, por el contrario, LOGSE, LOE, LOMCE o la reciente LOMLOE han contribuido a consolidar un modelo político populista y neoliberal en nuestro país? ¿Cómo afecta a la calidad educativa la ideología del cambio disruptivo continuo, que practican tanto gabinetes de izquierda como de derecha?

Following his tenure at the FDA, Dr. Williams spent more than a decade investigating new sciences - including genetic and microbial sciences - that are leading to innovative foods and products. With one of the greatest public health crises in American history ongoing, this research aims to solve our issues with food - once and for all.   

The American child welfare system is bent toward protecting adults, not children. Kids in danger are treated instrumentally to promote the rehabilitation of their parents, the welfare of their communities, and the social justice of their race and tribe. It is time to stop letting efforts to fix the child welfare system get derailed by activists who are concerned with race-matching, blood ties, and the abstract demands of social justice, and start asking the most important question: Where are the emotionally and financially stable, loving, and permanent homes where kids can thrive?
