An Ungovernable Foe: Science and Policy Innovation in the U.S. National Cancer Institute
by Natalie B. AvilesIn American politics, medical innovation is often considered the domain of the private sector. Yet some of the most significant scientific and health breakthroughs of the past century have emerged from government research institutes. The U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) is tasked with both understanding and eradicating cancer—and its researchers have developed a surprising expertise in virus research and vaccine development.An Ungovernable Foe examines seventy years of federally funded scientific breakthroughs in the laboratories of the NCI to shed new light on how bureaucratic organizations nurture innovation. Natalie B. Aviles analyzes research and policy efforts around the search for a viral cause of leukemia in the 1960s, the discovery of HIV and the development of AIDS drugs in the 1980s, and the invention of the HPV vaccine in the 1990s. She argues that the NCI transformed generations of researchers into innovative public servants who have learned to balance their scientific and bureaucratic missions. These “scientist-bureaucrats” are simultaneously committed to conducting cutting-edge research and stewarding the nation’s investment in cancer research, and as a result they have developed an unparalleled expertise. Aviles demonstrates how the interplay of science, politics, and administration shaped the NCI into a mission-oriented agency that enabled significant breakthroughs in cancer research—and in the process, she shows how organizational cultures indelibly stamp scientific work.

And How Does That Make You Feel?: Everything You (N)ever Wanted to Know About Therapy
by Joshua FletcherPsychotherapist Josh Fletcher takes us on a tour of the inner mind of a therapist—revealing a hilariously candid point of view on the therapeutic process, a practical guide to therapy, and maybe a few more cobwebs and dark corners than one might expect. It’s everything you ever wanted to know about therapy (and maybe a few things you didn’t). Trauma, heartbreak, anxiety, and mourning are all parts of the human experience, and Josh Fletcher’s mission in life is to normalize the need to find a trusted professional with whom you can discuss all of life’s scariest aspects. Through the lens of four of his patients—Daphne, a wildly successful actor who still struggles to find contentment; Levi, an intimidating bouncer with obsessive tendencies who’s trapped in a sex cult; Zahra, an anxious, people-pleasing doctor in the midst of unpacking serious trauma; and Noah, a shy newcomer with some major closet skeletons—you’ll share in their self-discovery and recovery as they untangle themselves from an all-too-familiar web of emotions. In between sessions, Fletcher struggles to balance his own well-being with that of his patients as details from his sometimes messy but always heartfelt personal life reveal that therapists aren’t immune to getting tripped up by the same hurdles as the rest of us. And How Does That Make You Feel? is a primer on what to expect from therapy, how to find the right therapist, and the most common afflictions treated in therapy (such as depression, OCD, and panic attacks) as well as a darkly hilarious narrative about what’s going on in your therapist’s mind before, during, and after your session. Above all, it’s filled with the promise that a better future is always possible . . . if we’re willing to seek help and do the work.
Angels and Other Cows: A Celestial Adventure into AI Worlds, the Social Good, and Unknown Connections (Artificial Intelligence, Simulation and Society)
by Petra AhrweilerThis open access novel uses fantasy and romance to pique readers' interest in understanding how AI technologies can be used for social justice across very different political and social terrains. Can you truly reach out to somebody who is in every aspect the direct opposite of yourself? Gabriel and Tilda, the two protagonists of this futuristic novel, are very different people. They work at a Berlin-based international aid company, and the only thing they can agree on is that the world is in a shambles: Scarce public resources, conflict and crises, inequalities, religious and socio-cultural belief systems that cement social injustice, have created a world as deeply divided and set apart as Gabriel and Tilda. They are sent on company business to recruit international partners for a social development project on global justice, and start travelling the world together. On their adventurous journey through many countries, they learn about the impacts of culture on social welfare systems, while trying to define their own relationship, which is intermingled with generational power games and milieu-specific worldview struggles. In Gabriel and Tilda’s attempts to bridge the deep gulf between their personalities, the novel creates a metaphor for finding a cohesive model of global justice using artificial intelligence that can integrate highly contextualized, national value cultures. Gabriel and Tilda are supported by two guardian angels: Assigned to save the planet through interpersonal and intercultural integration, the angels GA and TA team up with English Benedictine monk and mystic guru Bede Griffiths who is very keen to help Tilda and Gabriel in their model pilot of unlikely love.

Angst und Angstpolitik: Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven (Studien zur Inneren Sicherheit)
by Jens Lanfer Martin W. SchnellDieses Buch untersucht das Phänomen der gesellschaftlichen Angst und die hierauf ausgerichtete Angstpolitik. Die Angst in der Gesellschaft wird von vielen sozialwissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen angeführt, bleibt aber theoretisch und vor allem analytisch auffällig unbestimmt. Dies gilt ebenso für gesellschaftliche Diskurse: Ob nun alltägliche Unsicherheiten oder die Furcht, Sorge oder Angst gemeint sind, bleibt entweder unklar oder die Begriffe werden synonym verwendet. Das Buch setzt sich deshalb zum Ziel, verschiedene Formen der Unsicherheit in der Gesellschaft deutlicher zu bezeichnen, um soziale und politische Bedingungen und Folgen von Angst genauer fassen zu können. Die Beiträge der Autor*innen reflektieren aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen (Geschichtswissenschaft, Philosophie, Politikwissenschaft, Soziologie) und über verschiedene Anwendungsgebiete der Sicherheitspolitik das Angstphänomen. Das Buch richtet sich an Forscher*innen, die das Phänomen der gesellschaftlichen Angst theoretisch, analytisch und empirisch untersuchen möchten.

Anthropological Thought: From Evolutionism to Postmodernism and Beyond
by Vijoy S. SahayThe volume explores how anthropological ideas emerged. First, in the writings of the ancient Greek and Roman philosophers; after that, by the Renaissance scholars during the 18th century in Europe; and finally, during the mid-19th century, especially after Charles Darwin's theory of biological evolution. It covers the contributions of all the evolutionists of the 19th century. It explores the evolution of anthropological schools, from 'Evolutionism' to 'Diffusionism' and beyond. It also discusses diverse perspectives, such as 'Historical and Dialectical Materialism,' 'Functionalism,' 'Structural-Functionalism,' 'Cultural Ecology,' and 'Cognitive Anthropology. Concepts like Ethnocentrism and culture provide a rich tapestry of anthropological thought. It discusses the lives and contributions of renowned anthropologists, from E.B. Tylor to Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and instructors in social sciences, offering a nuanced understanding of anthropology, sociology, and psychology.

Anti-Sectarianism and Reconciliation in Northern Ireland: Peace Building Beyond Ethnicity
by Cillian McGrattanThis book addresses the limitations of dominant ways of thinking about and doing politics in Northern Ireland. Arguing for the foregrounding of anti-sectarianism as a way of displacing the divisive dynamics of religion and nationalism, it provides a new lens for studying Northern Ireland. Drawing upon a close reading of the political philosophy of Jacques Rancière, the book aligns anti-sectarianism to the ways that people refuse affiliation with the traditional ethnic values and practices. It describes this refusal as dis-identification, and reveals how dissensus acts as an alternative to the displacing of equality. Returning equality and equality claims-making to a clear position of visibility, the book provides a radical rethinking of Northern Ireland a quarter century beyond the 1998 peace accord. It will appeal to all those interested in politics and peacebuilding studies.
Anti-Semitism at the Limit: Critical Theory and Psychoanalysis (Studies in the Psychosocial)
by Benjamin B. StrosbergIn this book, Benjamin Strosberg explores difficulties and anxieties inherent in studying, defining, and defending against anti-Semitism by tracing a concurrent difficulty in thinking about Jewishness, which has historically served as a limit case for central social categories such as outsider, religion, race, gender, and nation. Dr. Strosberg draws on Zygmunt Bauman’s concept of proteophobia—the anxious fear of what doesn’t fit into clear-cut categories—to think more carefully about anti-Semitism as response to the complex-realities of ambivalence and otherness. The book proposes ‘negative psychology’ as a methodology for studying anti-Semitism and proteophobia rooted in psychoanalysis and Theodor Adorno’s Critical Theory. Drawing from lived experiences, contemporary events, and debates in the field, this compelling work explores the broad implications of the investigation of anti-Semitism for politics, education, and psychoanalysis, as well as the specific implications for Jewish identity and resistance.
Anti-Sexual Harassment Laws in India: Problematising Caste(d), Postcolonial and Neoliberal Policies
by Anukriti DixitThrough a deep dive into specific ‘problem’ representations in the policymaking on anti- sexual harassment at workplaces (SHW) in India, this book makes broader sense of gendered, caste-based and colonial regimes of power. The author takes a poststructuralist feminist approach to illustrate how these policies disregard collective action and function as gendering and caste-ing practices. The book posits that India’s anti-SHW policies produce specific ‘problems’ and subjects while neglecting certain other ‘problem’ and subject formulations. The author offers guidelines for how diverse subjects must be given equal epistemic credibility to make the policy milieu intersectionally equitable. This book will be of interest to scholars and policymakers in the fields of Gender Studies, Law, Sociology, and Organizational Studies.
Antiracism: A Critique
by John SolomosWhile there has been a wealth of research and conversation about the role of racism in shaping our social, political and economic structures, antiracism – its highly publicized counterpart – has been very little studied, discussed or debated. Veteran race scholar John Solomos argues in this slim intervention that we urgently need to re-focus research and activist agendas to address this gap in knowledge. The core questions addressed in the book include: what does antiracism mean in the contemporary environment? How do states, political institutions and civil society define and practise antiracism? What is the role of alliances across race, class and gender in shaping possible futures beyond racism? Moving beyond the valuable work which has already uncovered the ways in which race and racism are made and re-made, these questions cut to how to develop meaningful political and policy initiatives framed by antiracist ideas and values. If we hope to make sense of the evolution of contemporary racisms in the world around us in order to tackle them head on, antiracism needs to be better understood.
Antisemitismus in der Klimabewegung: Zur Bedeutung und zum Diskurs um Antisemitismus in deutschen Klimagruppen (BestMasters)
by Kathrin RenzDer global erstarkende Antisemitismus und seit dem 07. Oktober 2023 insbesondere sein Ausdruck in antiisraelischer Agitation findet sich auch in linken und sich selbst als progressiv verstehenden Bewegungen. In diesem Buch wird untersucht, welche Antisemitismen sich in verschiedenen aktivistischen Gruppen der deutschen Klimabewegung finden lassen, welche Funktionsweisen sie erfüllen, weshalb sie attraktiv sind und auf welche Weise sie sich ausdrücken. Zudem betrachtet die Autorin, wie auftretender Antisemitismus in der Klimabewegung reflektiert und diskutiert wird und welche Positionen dabei von verschiedenen Akteur*innen eingenommen werden. Das Buch diskreditiert die Klimabewegung und ihre klimapolitischen Zielsetzungen dabei keineswegs in toto, aber zeigt Problemfelder und Muster notwendigerweise zu kritisierender Zustände auf.
Antisocial: A Brief Analysis from the Perspective of the "Dark Triad" (essentials)
by Karin MeyerNarcissism is considered a widespread phenomenon at leadership levels, where it is represented disproportionately compared to the general population. Furthermore, younger emerging (leadership) talents exhibit significantly higher levels of narcissism than older generations have shown to date. At the same time, traits of the Dark Triad (narcissism, machiavellianism, and psychopathy) often do not occur in isolation, but rather in combination. For this reason, companies should rethink their personnel selection, management, and development practices today. This analysis will therefore highlight the characteristics and behavior patterns of ruthless individuals from the Dark Triad, as well as possible approaches for intervention and prevention.

Arbeitsgesundheit und Beziehungsqualität durch Mediation: Leitfaden zu Mediation als Soziale Heilkunde für Organisationen mit Praxisanleitung (essentials)
by Thomas SteinManchmal verstehen wir am Arbeitsplatz die Welt nicht mehr. Je besser wir es meinen, desto schwieriger scheint sich oft paradoxerweise das menschliche Miteinander zu entwickeln: Stress und lähmende Blockaden (Konflikte) im Miteinander saugen Energie, die dringend anderweitig gebraucht wird. Dem wirkt Mediation als professionell bewährtes und kulturübergreifend praktiziertes Konfliktlösungsverfahren gezielt entgegen. Denn: Mediation ist zukunftsgerichtet und kann kreative Lösungsansätze zeigen, die bislang kaum vorstellbar waren. Was das mit Arbeitsgesundheit und Beziehungsqualität zu tun hat, lernen Sie in diesem essential.
