Was sind Psychosen? Wie funktioniert Sucht? Und was haben Bären mit alldem zu tun? »Irre schön« gibt Antworten und lässt Betroffene zu Wort kommen. Psychologisch fundiert und poetisch gleichermaßen, gehen in diesem Buch erklärende und erlebende Perspektiven zu psychischen Erkrankungen Hand in Hand. Mit Sachkenntnis, Charme und Humor räumen die Psychologin Bonny Lycen und der selbst erkrankte Slampoet Stef mit überholten Stigmatisierungen und gefährlichem Halbwissen auf.

Germany has been infamously dubbed the "Brothel of Europe," but how does legalized prostitution actually work? Is it empowering or victimizing, realistic or dangerous? In Legalized Prostitution in Germany, Annegret D. Staiger's ethnography engages historical, cultural, and legal contexts to reframe the brothel as a place of longing and belonging, of affective entanglements between unlikely partners, and of new beginnings across borders, while also acknowledging the increasingly exploitative labor practices. By sharing the stories of sex workers, clients, and managers within the larger legal system—meant to provide dignity and safety through regulation—Staiger skillfully frames the economic aspects of commercial sex work and addresses important questions about sexual labor, intimacy, and relationships. Weaving insightful scholarship with beautiful storytelling, Legalized Prostitution in Germany provides readers with a deeper understanding of the complexities of legalized prostitution.

When an X-ray of a sore arm quickly leads to a diagnosis of Stage IV kidney cancer—one which would soon affect his bones, his lungs, lymph nodes, and brain—Peter Rooney’s life will never be the same.

Peter’s story, both humble and human, showcases the heights of medical science and the depths of human endurance, proving that anything is possible as long as you keep moving forward.
