The School of Life: The Meaning of Life

The Meaning of Life

The True Ingredients of Fulfilment

Philosophie - Aufklärung - Kritik

What does it mean to know something? What does it mean to prove something? And how are the two connected? Cara-Julie Kather explores Mathematics&nbsp;as a way of thinking and being in the world. She investigates Mathematics&nbsp;in its conceptual relation to Western understandings of the Rational and the Human, and proposes possibilities of subverting Western Mathematics&nbsp;and of forming different mathematical practices. To engage in decolonial-feminist re-writings of the Rational and the Human requires to re-write mathematical practice too. This study seeks to inspire such practices of re-writing thinking and being - in the realm of the mathematical and beyond.

The Epistemic Violence of Mathematics

'Two Women Living Together is a wonderfully calming and cosy read. I always adore stories of women who choose to live beyond the confines of cultural expectation-and this book might just be my new favourite!' - Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of both fiction and non-fiction, and a former judge for the 2025 Women's Prize. 'Everything about this compelling, curious, beautiful story of two women moving in together, in midlife, is delightful ... I loved every moment!' - Clover Stroud, author of My Wild &amp; Sleepless Nights, The Red of my Blood, and The Giant on the Skyline Quietly radical, full of warmth and wit, Two Women Living Together celebrates carving out your own path, cats, female friendship, and found family. At some point between living alone and becoming single, Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana found each other, and decided to live together in a nice apartment where their four cats would finally have the freedom to run around. Together they redefined what family looks and feels like. At a time housing costs have skyrocketed whilst the birth rates plummets, these two independent Korean women in their late forties share their views on society and its expectations of them. And, intent neither to marry or to live alone, they reflect on the comfort of their cohabiting friendship as it blossoms into a life full of joy and meaning. 'Inspiring' - Evening Standard 'Beneath the warmth lies a radical proposition: that their partnership should be treated like any family.' - Guardian

Two Women Living Together

An anthology of unforgettable poems by, for and about parents

Poems About Parents and Parenthood

Family Lines

Over the last twenty-five years, the concept of per-sonhood has become central to many contentious debates. Corporations have won free speech protections, as if they were individuals. The right to life or freedom has been claimed on behalf of fetuses, trees, and elephants. The fund of human rights is spilling over into the nonhuman. The Problem of Personhood reveals the unsettling consequences of granting rights to imagined persons, such as Sophia the robot citizen or New Zealand’s Whanganui River. Synthesizing the political and phil­osophical debates on personhood and drawing on a varied cast of thinkers that includes Simone Weil, Hannah Arendt, and Dr. Seuss, Lisa Siraganian un­covers the disturbing impact of this contemporary development. Awarding rights to robots and rivers all too easily becomes a legal tool to turn people into capital. When robot Sophia is made a citizen, "she" is transformed into a subject in the law without the corre­sponding legal duties that protect us from her. At the root of this trend is the US Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling that grants First Amendment rights to corporations as if they were individuals. The result has not been the transformation of things into humans so much as humans into things, when animals and the environment would be better protected with reference to our humanity rather than to theirs.

Giving Rights to Trees, Corporations and Robots

The Problem of Personhood

You definitely know one. This book is about the poisonous people who walk among us. The romantic partner who twists every conversation, the office bully who keeps being promoted, or the reckless relative who never takes responsibility for their actions.&nbsp; Award-winning researcher Leanne ten Brinke has studied dark personalities for decades, examining their behaviour in settings as varied as prisons, schools and financial boardrooms, even in the United States Senate. Dr ten Brinke uses a mixture of new science and storytelling to: &nbsp;<ul><li>help you identify dark personalities&nbsp;</li><li>understand how they cause so much harm</li><li>take evasive action before you become their target</li><li>prevent bad behaviour&nbsp;</li><li>decide if you should leave</li><li>get out of toxic situations unscathed</li></ul> The latest research shows that a relatively small number of people are bringing the rest of us down. This insightful, humane, optimistic and empowering book gives you powerful, evidence-based tools to neutralise their poison and improve your life.

Poisonous People

When it comes to setting goals, we all know what we want ­- to advance in our career, find a life partner, get in better physical shape, make more money, or live a fulfilling life. So why is it that no matter how hard we try, we never seem to get what we want? Rob Dial, host of the popular podcast The Mindset Mentor, has spent years studying human behaviour and psychology, coaching clients, and interviewing experts in their fields. Along the way, he's discovered that the secret to success isn't such a secret: if we work to get just 1 percent better each day, the compounding steps will take us to the next level. Level Up provides the tools to help break through what's been holding us back, rewire our brain to take action that leads to change, then take concrete steps that help us: ¿ Eliminate distraction ¿ Find greater focus ¿ Create habits that set us up for success ¿ Maintain momentum Combining research-backed science with practical productivity tips, neurohacks and visualization exercises, and journal prompts in every chapter, Level Up is an actionable guide to getting the life you want.

Get Focused, Stop Procrastinating and Upgrade Your Life

Level Up

Inspired by the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, this book shows that for justice to be realised law must be understood to originate in transcendence rather than in violence, conflict and the sacred - prevalent themes in philosophies of law and the political.To this end, the book takes up the case of 'scapegoating': evident in Carl Schmitt's influential theory of the 'friend-enemy' dichotomy as the essence of the political, and here considered as a paradigm of injustice. After considering positivist approaches to the law, as well as a case study that considers the question of what it would mean for Aboriginal people to be treated justly, the book shows that pragmatic, positivist and immanent approaches to the law and the scapegoat cannot deal with 'bad' law and cannot provide an insight into the nature of justice as 'good' law. The book then draws further on Levinas to demonstrate the necessity of law's foundation, not in immanence, as is widely presupposed, but rather in transcendence.Law and Transcendence will appeal to scholars in law, philosophy and political theory and especially to those with interests in sovereignty and power.

The Question of Justice

Law and Transcendence

All of us are familiar with the unsettling sensation of overwhelm: it's as if there's ever more to do, and ever less time in which to do it. The good news is, even if you can't see it yet, there is a way out. In this liberating new book, award-winning writer and presenter of BBC Radio 4's All in the Mind Claudia Hammond helps us to take the pressure off with a psychological toolkit that is both practical and evidence-based. Each chapter addresses a particular problem that can trap us into feeling overwhelmed - from procrastination to the fear of regret, imposter syndrome, perfectionism and a seemingly never-ending to-do list - and offers science-backed solutions. Calm, clear and convincing, Overwhelmed will give you the tools to take on everything life throws at you.
