Sex- and Gender-Based Analysis in Public Health
This book is the first to focus on sex- and gender-based analysis (SGBA) in public health, addressing the dearth of thinking, practice, and publication on SGBA and public health. The Canadian government is a global leader in seeking gender equity and mandating SGBA in federal initiatives, programs, and policies, continuing to advocate for the uptake of SGBA. However, there is differential uptake of SGBA in many fields, and public health is lagging behind.

An international group of experts in the fields of SGBA, public health, pro...

Solo Planet
How can the church do better for its millions of singles? Journalist Anna Broadway traveled around the world to interview nearly 350 Christians for answers. Solo Planet draws on her 17 months of fieldwork to provide a first-of-its-kind account of the single life of Christians from nearly 50 countries. Discussing a variety of topics—loneliness, sexuality, aging, housing, cooking, celebrations, parenting, and many more, it gives us the global-church story of singleness. Because when singles thrive in a church, everyone benefits. But consider these typical barriers within most churches: Singles and marrieds often don’t know how to talk to each other.

Nuckans hjärtespalt
"Jag har stulit era frågor. Förlåt. Men det var det enda sättet att börja reparera de skador som tystnaden har åsamkat oss." När Nuckan går in i rollen som hjärtespaltsrådgivare tar hon sig an läsarnas frågor ur en helt annorlunda vinkel än vanliga relationsspalter. Nuckan vill helt enkelt föra andra samtal om kärlek, makt och relationer än de som ryms i vår tids ideal om romantisk tvåsamhet. För hur kan en samlevnadsform, som gör så många så olyckliga och begränsade, betraktas som ett tecken på normalitet? Här behövs en nucka för att reda ut begreppen. Malin Lindroth fick ett enormt genomslag med Nuckan, och i sin nya bok prövar hon nuckblicken i praktiken. Nuckans hjärtespalt är en bok som tar frågor om kärlek och ensamhet på största allvar, men den är också full av humor. Den är radikalare än vanliga relationsspalter, men också mer innerlig. Kort sagt: Nuckan är tillbaka.
