Stop letting your phone rule your life. Phone Rules will help you break the cycle. Your phone is bad for you. It is harming your mental and physical health, ruining your sleep and limiting true human connection. We all know we need to get off our phones, but most of us are overwhelmed by the scale of the problem and by the many highly addictive ways in which our devices are designed to distract us, delight us and pull us back in. But here is the solution: a set of simple, sensible principles to govern the way we navigate our phone use. On his journey to break up with his smartphone, investigative journalist Luc Rinaldi hits the road and speaks to people at the forefront of the movement, from reformed social media addicts and digital defectors, to tech researchers and phone-free school children. Rinaldi has devised five insightful rules to resist our phones, along with helpful strategies to put them into action, including how to: - Stop obsessing over your screen time, find new mental space and improve your overall health - Protect your children against the harms of the digital world - Deepen your relationships with real people and the things that matter most. Rooted in on-the-ground research and written from the perspective of a tech-savvy, video-game playing millennial, Phone Rules offers a way forward for parents rearing digital natives, children navigating their first phones and anyone perpetually tethered to their devices. There is a way out. This is your invitation to scroll less, and to live more.

Five simple steps to save yourself, your family and the planet

Phone Rules

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER'S GUIDEWe vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?So why - in the privacy of the therapy room - does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?In MONEY: A USER'S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff - a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a "right" way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don't we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people's modern money and relationship dilemmas.Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?

These political, philosophical, and literary essays mark the first collection of theoretical writing from the acclaimed novelist and French feminist writer Monique Wittig. “Among the most provocative and compelling feminist political visions since The Second Sex. These essays represent the radical extension of de Beauvoir’s theory, its unexpected lesbian future. Wittig’s theoretical insights are both precise and far-reaching, and her theoretical style is bold, incisive, even shattering.” —Judith Butler, Johns Hopkins University

 ***Leseprobe***

 

 Obwohl er nicht fest zudrückte, fühlte sich mein Hals auf einmal ganz eng an, das Blut rauschte lauter in meinen Ohren, und mir wurde schummrig zumute. Ich wollte wütend auf ihn sein, ihn hassen für das falsche Spiel, das er mit mir spielte, doch zu meiner Überraschung konnte nicht einmal der verfluchte Teil von mir solche Gefühle für ihn empfinden. Genauso wenig konnte er verhindern, dass mein Blick wie von selbst hinab zu Spades' Lippen wanderte ...

 

 Eine Reaktion, die ihm nicht entging. Ein verführerisches Lächeln umspielte seine Mundwinkel, und mit seinem Griff zwang er meinen Kopf in den Nacken, sodass es nur noch eine winzige Bewegung gebraucht hätte, um unsere Münder miteinander verschmelzen zu lassen. 'Und die zweite Regel lautet', raunte er. 'Je mehr du mich von dir wegstößt, desto härter werde ich in dich stoßen, sobald sich mir die Gelegenheit dazu bietet.'

 

 Mein Fluch setzte sofort ein, und ich verengte die Augen. 'Du wirst niemals die Gelegenheit bekommen.'

 

 Spades verzog keine Miene. 'Mach dir nichts vor. Ich kann deine Seele sehen. Und ich sehe, wie sie anfängt zu glühen, wenn du mit mir sprichst. Wenn ich dich berühre. Ich weiß genau, was du willst, und ich werde es dir geben. Früher oder später.' Seine Lippen teilten sich leicht, als sein Blick über meine glitt. 'Ich werde mich in dir versenken. Ich werde in dir untergehen.'
