Allergic: How Our Immune System Reacts to a Changing World
by Theresa MacPhailAn eye-opening investigation - combining reporting, history and cutting-edge science - into allergies and their rise in recent decadesHay fever. Peanut allergies. Eczema. Billions of people worldwide have some form of allergy; millions have one severe enough to seriously endanger their health. And over the past decade, the number of people diagnosed with allergy has been steadily increasing, an ever-growing medical burden on individuals, families, and our health care system.Medical anthropologist Theresa MacPhail, herself an allergy sufferer whose father died of a bee sting, set out to understand why. The result is a holistic and deeply researched examination of allergies, from their first medical description in 1819 to the mind-bending new treatments that are giving patients hope. MacPhail spent years interviewing hundreds of experts, patients and activists, in an effort to understand how recent changes in our environment and lifestyle are contributing to the dramatic rise in cases globally. Pollution, chemicals, antibiotics and, increasingly, climate change are all making our immune systems become more and more irritated. But, as she shows us in Allergic, understanding what is irritating us and why will help us to craft better environments in the future-so we can all breathe easier.

The Almanac: A Seasonal Guide to 2021
by Lia LeendertzWelcome to The Almanac: A Seasonal Guide to 2021. If you are new to The Almanac then welcome; if you are a regular reader then hello! The Almanac is about celebrating the unfolding year in all its various facets. The old dependables which I include every year are back: moon phases, sun rises and sets, tide time tables and the sky at night. As ever there are seasonal recipes and monthly gardening tips for the flower and vegetable garden too, as well as a bit of folklore, and nature and a song for each month.This year's edition has a theme: movement, migration and pilgrimage. This was not a reaction to the unsettling events of last year - it was half written by the time Covid-19 hit - but writing it from lockdown did give me a heightened appreciation of the way in which Britain and Ireland have always and continue to be places of movement, and are intimately connected to the rest of the world. You will find within this book migration tales for each month of this year, but I have also searched out seasonal tales of human movement, and included a pilgrimage for each month, some ancient, some current, all underlining the spiritual benefits of putting one foot in front of the other. Every month I have included a method of navigating using the stars, sun or moon, so you can find your way around in the dark (or just look out of your window and know where south is). And our monthly folk songs are all shanties this year, work songs with movement at their very heart, created to coordinate muscle power to drive sailing ships backwards and forwards across the Atlantic Ocean, and containing influences from the eastern seaboard of the US down to the Caribbean and beyond mixed with British and Irish folk traditions. These songs are stitched through with movement and travel, as is this Almanac.PRAISE FOR THE ALMANAC: A SEASONAL GUIDE'The perfect companion to the seasons' - India Knight'This book is your bible' - The Independent'An ideal stocking filler' - The English Garden'I love this gem of a book' - Cerys Matthews'Indispensable' - Sir Bob Geldof

Als Gleicher unter Verschiedenen?: Diskriminierung evolutionspsychologisch
by Lydia LangeWarum fallen Menschen in alte, zerstörerische Verhaltensmuster zurück? Wegen schlechten Charakters oder einer schlimmen Kindheit? Wenn wir die evolutionär geformte Natur des Menschen berücksichtigen, erkennen wir Möglichkeiten zur Kooperation und zu regelhaft gestalteter Konkurrenz.Soziale Diskriminierung als Begleiterscheinung der kulturellen Evolution kann kooperatives Verhalten untergraben. Konkurrenz als unverzichtbarer Bestandteil für den Prozess der Evolution muss dem gegenüber nicht notwendig in Feindschaft und Aggression münden, sondern kann menschengemachten Regeln folgen. Dieses Buch versucht zu zeigen, Ansatzpunkte in der frühen Phylogenese zu suchen und nicht zu große Hoffnungen auf unsere neuesten kultur-evolutionären Errungenschaften (gesinnungsethische Empfehlungen, Antidiskriminierungsgesetze, Änderung sprachlicher Symbole) zu setzen. Wenn die evolutionär geformte Natur des Menschen berücksichtigt wird, erkennen wir Möglichkeiten zur Kooperation und zu regelhaft gestalteter Konkurrenz. Dies wiederum kann helfen, dass evolutionspsychologische Erkenntnisse zur Vermeidung oder Verminderung sozialer Diskriminierung beitragen können.

Alternative Healing in American History: An Encyclopedia from Acupuncture to Yoga
by Michael Shally-JensenThis book examines alternative healing practices in American popular culture. From traditional folk approaches to more recent developments, it discusses the rise and fall of more than 100 popular approaches to addressing both physical ailments and mental health needs.Offering insightful accounts of everything from aging prevention to voodoo & Santería, Alternative Healing in American History: An Encyclopedia from Acupuncture to Yoga situates each popular approach in the history and culture of health and wellness in America. Moreover, the book shows that "orthodox" medicine and unconventional approaches may have more in common than many people think, because both are subject to the changing nature of the medical understanding and the strength of their appeal to consumers. While the main focus is on remedies lying outside the medical mainstream, the book also highlights how many widely accepted therapeutic treatments of the past—for example, "the water cure" (hydrotherapy) or lobotomy (psychosurgery)—fell out of favor and were quickly forgotten. Besides examining popular healing techniques, the book also explores the changing nature of the medical marketplace and how once-standard treatments (e.g., leeching, psychoanalysis) have had their ups and downs. The book comprises five chronological sections covering time periods from pre-1900 to the present.
