Yaa Baa
The abuse of methamphetamines in Southeast Asia has become a major problem over the past decade. Thailand has been particularly hard hit, and methamphetamines abuse now affects all sectors of Thai society. In the early 1990s, manufacturers set up laboratories across the border in Burma and began large-scale production. The new and inexpensive product, known in Thailand as yaa baa or madness medicine, flooded the local market, and has also been found in the United States and Europe. Published in French in 2002 and now made available in an English translation, this book is the first to deal with the rapid spread of methamphetamines in the region and in Thailand in particular, and their impact it has had on local society."

Legal Insanity and the Brain
This landmark publication offers a unique comparative and interdisciplinary study of criminal insanity and neuroscience. Criminal law theories and ideologies which underpin the regulation of criminal insanity have always been the subject of controversy. The history of criminal insanity is characterised by conceptual and empirical tension between two disciplinary realms: the law and the mind sciences. The authors in this anthology explore in depth the state of the art of legal insanity and the numerous intricate, fascinating, pioneering and sophisticated questions raised by the integration of different criminal law and behaviour theories, diverse disciplines and methodologies, in a genuinely interdisciplinary perspective. This volume will serve as a practical guide for the comparative legal scholar and the judge, as well as stimulating scholarly reading for the neuroscientist, the social scientist and the philosopher with interdisciplinary scientific interests.

Defending Civil Society and the State
Charts the origins of the modern human rights discourse in continental Europe, with a focus on France...presents both a chronicle of Rights of Man in Third Republic France, and a day-to-day history of the French League of the Rights of Man. The League derived much of its prestige from the Declaration of the Rights of Man of August 1789, as well as from myths born out of the Dreyfus Affair. Yet, it was primarily French nationalism, imperialism, and corporatism developed by the League in its first fifty years that benefited from the autochthonous language of human rights, not liberalism and individualism. In addition, the interwar European stalemate regarding a range of issues--liberty vs. equality, pacifism vs. militarism, full citizenship vs. stratified kinship--produced an anemic response to the Vichy regime (1940-1944). After the liberation of France, the League never regained its prewar prestige, despite the fact that one of its members, René Cassin, helped draft the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights--from abstract.

Testo Junkie
This visionary book on gender and sexuality weaves together high theory and intimate memoir, with "spectacular" results—"and the gendered body will never be the same again" (Jack Halberstam). What constitutes a "real" man or woman in the twenty-first century? Since birth control pills, erectile dysfunction remedies, and factory-made testosterone and estrogen were developed, biology is definitely no longer destiny. In this penetrating analysis of gender, Paul B. Preciado shows the ways in which the synthesis of hormones since the 1950s has fundamentally changed how gender and sexual identity are formulated, and how the pharmaceutical and pornography industries are in the business of creating desire. This riveting continuation of Michel Foucault's The History of Sexuality also includes Preciado's diaristic account of his own use of testosterone every day for one year, and its mesmerizing impact on his body as well as his imagination.
