Single at Heart

'America's foremost thinker and writer on the single experience ' Atlantic 'Bella DePaulo isn't just a powerhouse, she's a lighthouse ... We need more luminaries like her' Catherine Gray, author of The Unexpected Joy of Being Single All too often, society issues dire warnings about the risks of single living. But is finding a romantic partner really a requirement for a full life? World-leading expert on single life Dr Bella DePaulo argues that a healthy, happy life is possible not in spite of being single - but because of it. DePaulo draws on her research expertise, as well as her own experience as a single woman, to demonstrate how choosing to be single can provide confidence, strength and deep fulfilment. With advice on topics including solitude, freedom, intimacy, children and societal pressure, Single at Heart addresses misconceptions about single life and gives you the tools and self-knowledge to stand up for what is right for you.

The Palgrave Handbook of Family Sociology in Europe

This handbook provides a meaningful overview of topical themes within family sociology as an academic field as well as empirical realities in various societal contexts across Europe. More than sixty prominent European scholars’ original texts present the field’s main theoretical and methodological approaches in addition to issues such as families as relationships, parental arrangements, parenting practices and child well-being, family policies in welfare state regimes, family lives in migration, and family trajectories. Presenting cutting-edge research on findings, theoretical interpretations, and solutions to methodological challenges, it is a timely tool for researchers, teachers, students, and family practitioners who wish to familiarise themselves with the state of family sociology in Europe.

Applicative Constructions in the World’s Languages

This book presents a state-of-the-art cross-linguistic survey of applicative constructions in the functional-typological tradition. An introductory section sets the terminological and analytical stage, presents the methodology used by the different chapters, and provides a typological outlook. The individual contributions address the morphological, syntactic and semantic variation of applicatives, as well as their discourse-pragmatic function. They cover all major language families and some isolates that feature some illuminating version of the phenomenon, paying special attention to language-internal variation and unity. The phenomena surveyed range from those instances usually considered canonical (valency-increasing, syntactically and semantically predictable, productive, dedicated, and optional) to those occasionally understudied in descriptive works and frequently neglected in comparative studies (valency-neutral, rather unpredictable, lexicalized, syncretic, and/or obligatory).

Auf Umwegen. Life is a Story - story.one

Weißt du, wie viele Leben du jeden Tag berührst, ohne es zu bemerken? Ob beim Bäcker, im Bus oder an der Ampel. So berühren sich auch die Leben von Charlotte, Florian, Felicia, Pia, Timea, Knut und Jan wie zufällig in einem Staffellauf der Ängste und Zwänge. So unterschiedlich sie auch sind - eines eint sie auf ihren Umwegen: Sie sind auf dem richtigen Weg. "Richtig" heißt dabei aber alles andere als "leicht".

Die transformative Macht der Demografie

Demografische Erkenntnisse, vorgetragen von einigen der namhaftesten Vertreter aus der Bevölkerungswissenschaft, fundieren die Grundkenntnisse von Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaft, Soziologie, Politikwissenschaft, Geschichtswissenschaft. Das Buch ist ein Plädoyer für eine noch stärkere Beachtung der Demografie in der Politik. Es reflektiert dabei sechs Jahrestagungen der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Demografie zwischen den Jahren 2010 und 2016.Der demografische Wandel ist sicherlich nicht unser Schicksal, aber er erfasst uns alle. Weder kann man sich dem Umbruch der ganzen Gesellschaft noch den Veränderungen im Mikroprozess der Familie entziehen. Die elementaren Veränderungsprozesse haben gesellschaftliche wie politische Folgewirkungen.
