Olofsson J: The Forgotten Sense / B

The Forgotten Sense

The New Science of Smell

From a leading expert on child development, a radical evolutionary perspective on how childhood experiences shape later life. Children who grow up in troubled circumstances-experiencing deprivation or instability, living in a dangerous neighborhood or an abusive family-are more prone to aggression, recklessness, and sexual promiscuity later in life. To most of us, the lesson is clear: adverse childhood conditions make human development go awry. In The Nature of Nurture, renowned developmental psychologist Jay Belsky challenges this interpretation and offers an exciting alternative based on Darwinian theory. There is no reason to assume, he points out, that the psychology of "well-behaved" people is normal while that of "antisocial" adults is aberrant. Instead, the supposedly dysfunctional behaviors correlated with childhood adversity could well be ingenious adaptations to harsh environments. If you are surrounded by danger and uncertainty, then being quick to lash out at potential threats and having lots of offspring at an early age are good ways to maximize your reproductive chances. From an evolutionary perspective, having just a few children and lavishing care on each works well in a stable world, but not in a perilous one. Belsky exposes the romanticism underlying our idealized notions that "natural" equals "good" and that nature intends to maximize human happiness and well-being. When instead we take seriously the fact that humans, too, have been shaped by evolutionary pressures, we can better understand why, how, and for whom childhood experience shapes later life.

Studies in Education and Religion in Ancient and Pre-Modern History in the Mediterranean and Its Environs

This volume explores educational practices within the three major monotheistic religions, cultures, traditions, and languages. Through case studies, the contributors illustrate how Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions shaped educational ideals, fostered scholarly communities, and guided students through structured curricula. They examine the role of literate elites in transmitting classical knowledge and patristic authority, and how pedagogical legacies contributed to spiritual development and responded to social and religious crises. Aimed at scholars of history, religion, and humanities, students and general readers, this collection of essays offers valuable insights into the enduring and evolving nature of pedagogical values across diverse historical contexts, and features profiles of influential educators such as rabbis, church fathers, exegetes, mystics, jurists, and polymaths.

Zeitschrift für archäologische Aufklärung

Die&nbsp;Zeitschrift für archäologische Aufklärung&nbsp;setzt sich zum Ziel, die Aktualität antiker Artefakte zu demonstrieren. Sie präzisiert Konzepte antiker Dingwelten, ihre Mechanismen sowie Regelsysteme und sucht im Trümmerhaufen der griechisch-römischen Antike nach Lösungen für die Aporien der Gegenwart. Heft 4 widmet sich dem Begriff der Maske, der&nbsp;archäologische und ethnologische Objekte wie Theatermasken, Ahnenmasken und Maskenbilder umgreift. Dabei verweist er auf&nbsp;ein anthropologisches und technologisches Grundphänomen: jene bunte Instanz, die sich zwischen Subjekt und Objekt, zwischen Mensch und Mensch, zwischen Mensch und Maschine schiebt. Welche verschlungenen Pfade führen von den antiken und prähistorischen Masken durch das Labyrinth der westlichen und östlichen Traditionen in unsere digital maskierten Welten? Steckt hinter dem Phänomen der Maske womöglich der Hermes Trismegistos unserer technisierten, materialistischen und gegenwartsverliebten Zivilisation - der uralte, dämonische Ver- und Enthüller in seinem neuesten Kleid, der digitalen Hermeneutik?

Heft 4/2025: Maske

Timeless sculptures between presence and absence - an insight into the unique artistic world of Walter Moroder

 three decades of his artistic career.
 Structured into 16 chapters and enriched with large-format images, it allows readers to experience the depth and uniqueness of Moroder's work.&nbsp;

Markus Klammer lives and works in Bolzano (Italy).Walter Moroder (born 1963) comes from a renowned family of sculptors in Val Gardena (Italy).

Walter Moroder. Figures of Presence and Absence

THE REDISCOVERED JAPANESE CLASSIC Read the original and moving literary gem for fans of Banana Yoshimoto and Kawaguchi's BEFORE THE COFFEE GETS COLD, with stunning illustrated endpapers. What if you could come back after death to watch over your loved one, installing yourself in a treasured mug, for example, or perhaps your mother's hearing aid, a diary, or even a climbing frame, to feel the clambering limbs of a beloved sister? Eleven recently deceased protagonists find themselves floating in the afterlife where a nameless ghost offers them a joyous reunion with their loved ones. But not as you would expect. In a world where souls linger restlessly around after death, unwilling to depart, The Soul Catchers is a comforting, witty, and surprisingly sensual take on the Japanese folk belief that objects can be inhabited by human presences. Utterly charming, Higashi's classic is an original exploration of our eternal reluctance to let go.

The Soul Catchers

From generational icon Brooke Shields comes an intimate and empowering exploration of ageing that flips the script on the idea of what it means for a woman to grow older. Brooke Shields has spent a lifetime in the public eye. Growing up as a child actor and model, her every feature was scrutinised, her every decision judged. Now Brooke is facing a different kind of scrutiny: that of being a 'woman of a certain age'. And yet, for Brooke, the passage of time has brought freedom. At fifty-nine, she feels more comfortable in her skin, more empowered and confident than she did decades ago in those famous Calvin Kleins. In Brooke Shields is Not Allowed to Get Old, she's changing the narrative about women and ageing. This is an era, insists Brooke, when women are reclaiming agency and power, not receding into the shadows. These are the years when we get to decide how we want to live - when we get to write our own stories. With remarkable candour, Brooke bares all, painting a vibrant and optimistic picture of being a woman in the prime of her life, while dismantling the myths that have, for too long, dimmed that perception. By turns inspiring, moving, and galvanising, Brooke's honesty and vulnerability will resonate with women everywhere and spark a new conversation about the power and promise of midlife.

Offering an excellent overview of critical approaches to international payment systems, this open access volume re-introduces the contemporary relevance, origins and aims of the International Clearing Union (ICU), a concept associated with J. M. Keynes and with debates of continued contemporary importance to global political economy. This volume focuses on how ICU proposals interact with economic theory and normative principles of ethics and politics. It examines key contemporary political issues including de-dollarisation, development, overcoming nationalism, principles of fairness in trade and finance, commodity pricing, fixed vs. floating exchange rates, capital controls, the need for planning, and global public investments, as well as urgent issues of climate emergency and ecological breakdown. As such, this important volume provides a wide range of perspectives from both the Global North and Global South, as well as from different disciplines including politics, economics and political theory.

Deweaponizing Interdependence

The Margellos World Republic of Letters

From an acclaimed Ukrainian author, snapshots of a city haunted by war &nbsp; The women, men, and children in Serhiy Zhadan's new collection of stories testify to the dignity of daily life in the war-battered Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. Through a series of powerful vignettes we witness the ordinary experiences of people in extraordinary times-weddings, love affairs, tense visits home from the battlefield, desperate deliveries of humanitarian aid.Highlighting the upheaval since the 2022 Russian invasion, characters from Zhadan's Mesopotamia and The Orphanage reappear, this time with entirely different concerns: evacuating an elderly woman after the bombardment of a residential area; finding a job for someone who returned from the front with significant disabilities; attending the funeral of a colleague who had led a combat unit on the front lines.These stories, composed shortly before the author joined the Ukrainian armed forces, give voice to the vulnerability of those whose lives have been transformed by war, who have come to accept that death lurks around every corner, in every building, and on every square.
