A stunning, thought-provoking exploration of how maps shape our understanding of the world.

What Maps Tell Us About Who We Are

Engaging in Everyday Struggle

The Urban Life of Workers in Post-Soviet Russia

America today is being torn apart by the struggle over a single concept, deeply rooted in the country's sense of self: freedom. Battered by wave after wave of crises, ordinary people of all political persuasions have come to feel that their freedom is under threat - and with it, nothing less than the soul of the nation. In The trouble with freedom, journalist and researcher Melissa Butcher takes a trip into the ferociously polarised world of American politics, hoping to find out what's going on beneath the surface. Criss-crossing the country, she talks to a wide range of people: Democrat and Republican, gay and straight, urban and rural, immigrants, First Nations, Black, white, the incarcerated. What she discovers is that political conflict is often the outcome of very personal experiences of managing cultural change. Exploring the different ways freedom has been used to define what it means to be American, Butcher encounters anger and distrust, but also untapped possibilities for empathy and care.

Love, Hate and America's Future

The Trouble with Freedom

What makes reading a poem unlike reading anything else? While there are as many ways to read a poem as there are types of poetry, every poem demands a conscious attention to language. Reading poems forensically helps us bring that attention to our own writing.
In Real Toads, Imaginary Gardens, acclaimed poet and teacher Paisley Rekdal demonstrates how to observe the building blocks of a poem-including its diction, form, imagery and rhythm-and construct an interpretation of its meaning. Through close analyses of contemporary and classic poems as well as creative exercises and specific, skill-based questions, this book shows how a poem takes shape and accrues meaning through the intersection of all its lyric elements. Lucid and generous, Real Toads, Imaginary Gardens reveals how to read and write critically and how to appreciate-and achieve-the exhilarating craft of poetry.

Descriptions of Deviance articulates and publicises what is now a very substantial submerged corpus of ethnomethodological studies that are directly relevant to the sociology of deviance and criminology but which have hardly received any attention from mainstream sociologists and criminologists.

Lessons From Societies Where Women Make the Rules

Herlands

We are living, it is often said, in a golden age of stupidity, in which boneheaded, mendacious politicians get elected by voters who've become too mindless to realise their interests are ill-served by narcissists, while vapid social media influencers corrupt their&nbsp;no-less witless followers with groundless conspiracy theories and eye- wateringly foolish takedowns of scientific expertise. Our time, one might be forgiven for thinking,&nbsp; is one in which the fool's gold of stupidity has become a desirable commodity, a must-have, with bumbling celebrities venerated more than those who have more than two brain cells to rub together.&nbsp; In this book, Stuart Jeffries analyses how we got into this parlous state and wonders if Schopenhauer was right in contending the stupid, like the poor, are always with us, or if rather, stupidity is like Japanese knotweed,&nbsp; difficult to root out but should be exterminated with extreme prejudice. He considers what some of the greatest of human minds - Socrates, Buddha, Voltaire, Arendt and&nbsp; among others - have to tell us about the slippery nature of stupidity.&nbsp; During a narrative that takes us from ancient Greece to artificial intelligence, and accompanied by&nbsp;such heroes of stupidity as Flaubert's double act Bouvard and Pécuchet, Jeffries&nbsp;casts a sceptical eye on attempts to root out stupidity by such means as IQ tests, eugenics, gene editing and racist education policies,&nbsp; finding each attempt to be more stupid than the stupidity they were ostensibly devised to eradicate. If today we are living in a fool's paradise, has our species become too dim to learn anything from its rich history of folly?
