a tumblr book
This book takes an extensive look at the many different types of users and cultures that comprise the popular social media platform Tumblr. Though it does not receive nearly as much attention as other social media such as Twitter or Facebook, Tumblr and its users have been hugely influential in creating and shifting popular culture, especially progressive youth culture, with the New York Times referring to 2014 as the dawning of the “age of Tumblr activism.” Perfect for those unfamiliar with the platform as well as those who grew up on it, this volume contains essays and artwork that span many different topics: fandom; platform structure and design; race, gender and sexuality, including queer and trans identities; aesthetics; disability and mental health; and social media privacy and ethics. An entire generation of young people that is now beginning to influence mass culture and politics came of age on Tumblr, and this volume is an indispensable guide to the many ways this platform works.

Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief
The Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief is a scholarly work of social criticism, richly grounded in personal experience, evocative case studies, and current multicultural and sociocultural theories and research. It is also consistently practical and reflective, challenging readers to think through responses to ethically complex scenarios in which social justice is undermined by radically uneven opportunity structures, hierarchies of voice and privilege, personal and professional power, and unconscious assumptions, at the very junctures when people are most vulnerable—at points of serious illness, confrontation with end-of-life decision making, and in the throes of grief and bereavement. Harris and Bordere give the reader an active and engaged take on the field, enticing readers to interrogate their own assumptions and practices while increasing, chapter after chapter, their cultural literacy regarding important groups and contexts. The Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief deeply and uniquely addresses a hot topic in the helping professions and social sciences and does so with uncommon readability.

With Wings Extended
A century ago, many people had given up on the wood duck, dooming it to extinction along with the passenger pigeon and Carolina parakeet. Today, it’s one of the most familiar and most harvested ducks in the eastern half of the country, and one of America’s great conservation success stories. In With Wings Extended, Minnesota conservationist Greg Hoch introduces readers to a duck they probably recognize but may not know well. This book shows how almost anyone can get involved in conservation and do something for wildlife beyond writing checks to conservation organizations. Hoch illustrates the complexities of wildlife and habitat management that landowners as well as state and federal wildlife agencies deal with on a daily basis, and takes readers through the life stages of what is largely considered the most beautiful duck in the world. In this fascinating and practical read, Hoch blends the historical literature about the species with modern science, and also shows how our views of conservation have changed over the last century.
Es Geht Auch Anders
Sommer 2005: Bausparberater Simon-Moritz Lüdenscheidt ist seit über zwanzig Jahren mit seiner Frau, der dominanten, extrovertierten Lehrerin Carla verheiratet. Tochter Lena ist aus dem Haus und Alex, der pubertierende Sohn, zieht sich immer mehr in seine eigene Welt zurück. Auf Carlas jährlicher Party glaubt Simon ein eindeutiges Angebot einer unbekannten, attraktiven Frau empfangen zu haben und beginnt darüber nachzudenken, ob das Leben nicht noch mehr bereithält, als die eingefahrene Ehe mit Carla, die ihrerseits auch nichts anbrennen lässt und mehr Zeit mit ihrer Freundin Rita verbringt, als mit ihrem Mann. Nach einer Gardinenpredigt seines cholerischen Chefs kündigt Simon spontan seinen ihn schon längere Zeit anödenden Job und nimmt noch am selben Tag und ohne Carla davon in Kenntnis zu setzen das Angebot seines Freundes Andy an, Geschäftsführer von dessen Kneipe zu werden. Ausgerechnet dort macht er eines Tages eine überraschende Entdeckung, die ihn endgültig beflügelt, seines Lebensentwurf noch einmal neu zu entwickeln. Er ahnt nicht, dass sein gesamtes Leben schon nach kurzer Zeit vollkommen auf den Kopf gestellt wird.
