Testosterone
An Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medal Winner A Progressive Book of the Year A TechCrunch Favorite Read of the Year “Deeply researched and thoughtful.” —Nature “An extended exercise in myth busting.” —Outside “A critique of both popular and scientific understandings of the hormone, and how they have been used to explain, or even defend, inequalities of power.” —The Observer Testosterone is a familiar villain, a ready culprit for everything from stock market crashes to the overrepresentation of men in prisons. But your testosterone level doesn’t actually predict your appetite for risk, sex drive, or athletic prowess. It isn’t the biological essence of manliness...

The Wellness Trap
AS SEEN ON CBS MORNINGS, THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE CUT, AND MORE SELF MAGAZINE’S #1 WELLNESS BOOK OF 2023 A NEXT BIG IDEA CLUB MUST-READ BOOK FOR APRIL 2023 A searing critique of modern wellness culture and how it stands in the way of true well-being that "will change the way you think about your health—in all the best ways.” (Casey Gueren) “It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle.” You've probably heard this phrase from any number of people in the wellness space. But as Christy Harrison reveals in her latest book, wellness culture promotes a standard of health that is often both unattainable and deeply harmful. Many people with chronic illness understandably feel dismissed or abandoned by...
On Hunting
Hunting is our heritage, our heart, and our future. Where does hunting fit in the modern world? To many, it can seem outdated or even cruel, but as On Hunting affirms, hunting is holistic, honest, and continually relevant. Authors Grossman, Miller, and Cunningham dive deep into the ancient past of hunting and examine its position today, demonstrating that we cannot understand humanity without first understanding hunting. Readers will · discover how hunting formed us, · examine hunting ethics and their adaptation to modernity, · understand the challenges, traditions, and reverence of today’s hunter, · identify hunting skills and their many applications outside the field, · learn why hunting is critical to ecological restoration and preservation, and · gain inspiration to share hunting with others. Drawing from ecology, philosophy, and anthropology and sprinkled with campfire stories, this wide-ranging examination has rich depths for both nonhunters and hunters alike. On Hunting shows that we need hunting still—and so does the wild earth we inhabit.

A economia XX
Um dos Melhores Livros de 2020, segundo o The Guardian Finalista do Prémio Royal Science Society 2020 Nomeado para Melhor Livro do Ano pelo Financial Times e a McKinsey O século XX foi repleto de conquistas para um género que até pelo direito ao voto teve de lutar. Mas o caminho ainda é longo e cheio de adversidades. Os homens têm duas vezes mais hipóteses de ocupar uma posição de liderança do que as mulheres e, nas economias mais avançadas, ser mulher significa receber apenas 62% do salário de um homem, para um trabalho e posição iguais. Estamos a negar a metade da humanidade o direito à emancipação plena e a causar danos sociais, económicos e até ambientais irreparáveis. As páginas deste livro desenham uma história feita de violência, escravidão e marginalização. Desigualdades com um custo humano incalculável, mas que segundo o Banco Mundial também retiram 160 mil milhões de dólares todos os anos à economia. Esta é a Economia XX: uma fonte incomparável de bem-estar e que é desperdiçada por preconceito. Linda Scott recorda-nos o caminho a trilhar para um mundo melhor. Porque a mudança não é só possível: é necessária.
Les Quatre Accords du Couple
Tout ou presque a déjà été dit sur l’amour. Et pourtant, rarement la relation amoureuse est abordée dans son ensemble. Dans ce livre, elle est décryptée comme un « accord » riche et complexe entre quatre dimensions fondamentales : biologie, psychologie, culture et spiritualité. Pourquoi s’obstine-t-on à vivre en couple et à construire une famille ? Comment la relation peut-elle être une source d’épanouissement pour l’un et pour l’autre ? Et surtout, comment résoudre le paradoxe entre notre besoin de sécurité et notre envie de liberté ? Que ce soit le rôle des neurotransmetteurs dans notre désir sexuel, l’écho de nos liens transgénérationnels et de notre enf...
