Writing about the history of medicine, Cleghorn presents us a well-researched work about systemic and cultural prejudices that influence the way female biology, body and illness are perceived and treated since Ancient Greece. Beginning each chapter with a historical figure, she steps through history and explains what misconceptions were widespread by broadening the subject. She enunciates in what way these beliefs still influence modern medicine but also what progress has been made and whom to thank for that.
Compelling, shocking and revelatory!
The memoir of the year!

Read it and rethink the function and purpose of work, respectively non-work.
Something is rotten in the states of the western hemisphere. The rise of populism, the election of Donald Trump and the deepening divide between winners and losers of globalization did not arrive by accident, but as the consequences of an ideology which seems to offer everyone the same possibilities to prosper in liberal democracies: this at least is the diagnosis proposed by Michael Sandel in his latest work. Why a concentration on individual merit falls short of the expectations evoked by this way of thinking is shown in this multidisciplinary research. An elaborate presentation of the philosophical, religious and economic sources that lead to the establishment of meritocracy is followed by a thoroughly examination of current sociological figures and political speeches. Sandel's book doesn't aim at a revolution against the reign of merit, but shows the limits and excesses of its domination and offers some practical hints how to mend the failures of the this government gone wrong.

Eger?s work and general attitude towards life is truly inspiring and every reader will take away a valuable life lesson by reading this book.
Hackes Buch ist ein Plädoyer für mehr Anstand im Leben eines jeden einzelnen. Es regt zum Nachdenken und zur Selbstreflektion an.

Axel Hacke bezeichnet den Anstand als "eine Sache jedes Einzelnen und damit eine Sache von uns allen."

Eine Ethik der sprachlichen Begegnung: linguistische Erkenntnisse (ist Piraha das Hopi des 21. Jahrhunderts?) und eigene Mehrsprachigkeit machen die Welt vielfältiger, relativieren eingewortete Prägungen. Verabsolutierungen werden fragwürdig, Individuen sprengen den Rahmen starrer Kategorien. Die Dekonstruktion der Benennungen öffnet Räume für Ausdruckswandel und Ambiguitäten, für die Utopie eines Sprechens frei von Fesselungen angelegter Maßstäbe.
Mittels zahlreicher Beispiele aus ihrem Leben zeigt Kübra Gümüsay, wie Menschen lediglich als Angehörige einer gesellschaftlichen Gruppierung wahrgenommen werden, Talkshowformate Schubladendenken verstärken und monoperspektivische Erklärungen dem Verständnis für andere entgegenstehen. "Sprache und Sein" ist weniger Sprachstudie als vielmehr ein Eintreten für das Hineinversetzen in die Perspektive des Gesprächspartners und für einen respektvollen Umgang miteinander.
