Carpenter Murray: Sweet and Deadly

Sweet and Deadly

How Coca-Cola Spreads Disinformation and Makes Us Sick

In Lawyers and Social Movements, Scott L. Cummings explores the role of lawyers in social movements at a moment in which that role has taken center stage in American legal theory and practice. This book is a comprehensive analysis of how lawyers mobilize law to advance movement goals and what impact they have within liberal democracy. Cumimings' central contribution is to show how lawyers act as allies-and sometimes leaders-in struggles for transformative and enduring democratic change.

An innovative approach for understanding how law matters in contemporary social movements that rise to meet the twin challenges of American democracy: promoting liberal values of equality and inclusion, while fortifying the rule of law itself.

Fifty years after the Civil Rights Movement, America confronts a new democratic reckoning. What role do-and should-lawyers play in strengthening collective action at this pivotal moment? In Lawyers and Movements, Scott L. Cummings offers an innovative answer to this age-old question, breaking from the legacy of legal liberalism to reveal the essential, yet underappreciated, work of lawyers in social struggle-redefining legal mobilization in transformative times. Building from a sweeping analysis of progressive legal theory and practice, Cummings challenges foundational critiques of lawyers as inaccurate and ill-suited to the current context. In response, he advances a new theory of legal mobilization in which control over law is at the heart of movements rising to meet the twin challenges of contemporary liberalism: promoting inclusion and equity, while fortifying democratic institutions. A call to radically rethink how lawyers contribute to progressive change, Lawyers and Movements asserts a timely challenge to democracy in crisis.

A fairer, healthier, more caring and sustainable society is entirely within our grasp. This book shows us the way. How do we ensure that everyone has good health and is cared for when in need?How do we provide education that allows every child to flourish?How do we ensure safety, justice and a healthy environment now and for future generations?How can we finally solve the problems of poverty and inequality that drive all the others?Kate Pickett is one of the most renowned thinkers and leaders in social science. Her life's work has been to identify the underlying causes behind society's key challenges and how to solve them. In The Good Society she draws on the deepest insights and the strongest evidence produced by social science over the last three decades to present a roadmap for change. Ultimately, she shows that solving the fundamental problems of poverty and equality would enhance the quality of life for us all.

And How We Get There

The Good Society

Based on up-to-date scientific research from psychology, this book covers topics in hunger, taste, eating, and culture in the context of human behavior.

The Psychology of Eating

Shon Faye grew up quietly obsessed with the feeling that love was not for her. Not just romantic love: the secret fear of her own unworthiness penetrated every aspect and corner of her life. It was a fear that would erupt in destructive, counterfeit versions of the real love she craved: addictions and short-lived romances that were either euphoric and fantastical, or excruciatingly painful and unhinged, often both. Faye's experience of the world as a trans woman, who grew up visibly queer, exacerbated her fears. But, as she confronted her damaging ideas about love and lovelessness, she came to realize that this sense of exclusion is symptomatic of a much larger problem in our culture. Love, she argues, is as much a collective question as a personal one. Yet our collective ideals of love have developed in a society which is itself profoundly sick and loveless; in which consumer capitalism sells us ever new, engrossing fantasies of becoming more loved or lovable. In this highly politicized terrain, boundaries are purposefully drawn to keep some in and to keep others out. Those who exist outside them are ignored, denigrated, exiled. In Love in Exile, Shon Faye shows love is much greater than the narrow ideals we have been taught to crave so desperately that we are willing to bend and break ourselves to fit them. Wise, funny, unsparing, and suffused with a radical clarity, this is a book of and for our times: for seeing and knowing love, in whatever form it takes, is the meaning of life itself.

Love in Exile

Borders and boundaries are being radically challenged by globalization. While states as legal and political entities are more or less fixed, emotional belonging to a political community has become more important. The construction of that belonging consists of several elements; memorialization and discursive practices are among the most relevant. The chapters in this book focus on different regions and different constructions and all relate to the importance of memorializing war.

Futures Theory

What are the most radical transformations on the horizon of our world? Shining a light on the many possibilities of the future from multiple astonishing perspectives, this book explores how new ages are imagined in our century. Bringing together over 20 prominent thinkers from a variety of disciplines, it examines the potential dimensions of the future and how they will affect everything from our culture to our politics, from our bodies to our minds. As future eras remain cloaked in relative obscurity, they compel the invention of new techniques for navigating those realms of visionary speculation. With deeply immersive entries on captivating phenomena occurring across all regions of our global reality, this book brings novel theoretical interpretations of transpiring events and the great ciphers they reveal. This includes hidden questions surrounding artificial intelligence, virtual reality, mass migration, speed, climate, geo-engineering, automation, and many more. Moreover, this book skilfully tethers inexhaustible abstract concepts like the infinite and the illusory to the emergence of new knowledge systems that allow analysis of the unknown, ultimately offering insight on the rarest features of futurity. Filled with original impressions from experts in the domains of literature, philosophy, visual art, architecture, design, media studies, ecology, anthropology, and more, Futures Theory contemplates the new variables that will expand and distort such fields in irreversibly compelling ways, opening up discussion of the steps toward a new atmosphere for thought itself in the epochs to come.

Philosophies of the World to Come

Future's Theory

If you are what you eat, what does that make you? Virtuous? Cool? Immortal? Or deviant, pitiful, ill? Is it useful to make these judgements? Do they help us improve our lives? In a world where it feels as though the value of your life can be gauged by the goodness in your dinner, it is possible, even easy, to lose the will to live. This became particularly obvious to writer Amber Husain when suddenly, despite almost thirty years of practice, it seemed she had forgotten how to eat. Medical wisdom tries fix the problem non-eater by teaching them the rules of Good Diet. But what if the problem is precisely the narrowing of life to questions of personal goodness? Suspecting there might be more to her stand-off with food than matters of identity and diet, Husain embarked on an enquiry into the special role of eating in our relationship with the world. Combining a personal account of modern eating-disorder treatments, from the disturbing to the sublime, with a sprawling collective history of eating in hard times, Tell Me How You Eat unearths the astonishing effect of how we feed ourselves and others, not just on who we are, but on how we perceive our own political power. In doing so, it marks a bold and inspiring confrontation with our very understanding of food.
