Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Artificial Gut Feeling explores the traces left in the body by power systems, showing the interrelation between feeling, memory and authority. In search of the most effective self-defence technology, Anna Zett rehearses resistance as a physical practice. Childhood experiences of a sadistic kindergarten teacher and adult experiences of loss traverse the borders between monologue and dialogue. The voices here struggle with the remnants of a masculinist, logocentric state (the German Democratic Republic), and the unfulfilled promises of patriarchal religion. Zett's singular voice appears in many guises, advancing an insistent series of auto-fictions addressing dominance, resistance, artificial feelings and the physicality of language.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Night Philosophy is collected around the figure of the child, the figure of the child not just as a little person under the tutelage of adults, but also the submerged one, who knows, who is without power, who doesn't matter. The book proposes a minor politics that disperses all concentrations of power. Fanny Howe chronicles the weak and persistent, those who never assimilate at the cost of having another group to dominate. She explores the dynamics of the child as victim in a desensitized era, when transgression is the zeitgeist and the victim-perpetrator model controls citizens. Fanny Howe s literary genius envisages the figure of the Child as exemplary of profound knowledge that cannot wield power. Night Philosophy is an echo of all those who continue to refuse to pay the price of dominating others.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Darryl Cook is a cuckold, and that's exactly how he likes it. He has an inheritance that spares him from work, a manageable and seemingly consequence-free drug habit, and a lovely wife called Mindy who's generally game for anything - and for as much of it as she can get. But after an accidental overdose and some serious over-sharing, Darryl's world begins to crack up. Tormented by what seems to be the secret truth in sex, and less assured of that secret's form, Darryl steps into what used to be called real life, as he embarks on a serious if stumbling assessment of himself, and the libertines, lovers and others who make up his world: Bill, a man among men and the last good one; Kit, a good-natured and practical lesbian; Greg, the bully turned bull; Oothoon, his trans poet pen-pal; a polyamorous pair of expert meditators called Satori and Moonbeam; a hamburger; a drop of water; and Clive, an ersatz Englishman, ersatz psychologist, and perhaps an ersatz human being. Darryl is a disarmingly funny and unabashedly intelligent look at a community of people parsing masculinity, marriage, sex (and love) on their own terms.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Carla Lonzi's Self-portrait transforms traditional conceptions of linear art historical thinking, reimagines the role of the critic, as well as the role of women in the world of art. For the first time now, Carla Lonzi can speak for herself in English, inviting readers to engage in her experimental writing and feminist thinking. Self-portrait is one of the earliest examples of an art critic focusing on artists' processes and subjectivity and transforming herself then, into an artist. This translation brings Carla Lonzi's work to an international audience and forces us to reconsider the trajectory of modern art in Italy and beyond since the 1960s.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. What is the relation between family misfortune and desire? Why must we bury the dead? What is to come for those unburied? How to distinguish the endless stream of graphic violence from violence that goes straight to the bone? How does language make up not only the law, but also unwritten laws? In Let Them Rot Alenka Zupancic takes up the ancient figure of Antigone and finds a blueprint for the politics of desire. Not desire as consumption, enjoying what is offered, but desire s oblivion to what came before. Such politics says: 'No, this world must end and I will be the embodiment of that end.' This is not self-satisfied destruction for destruction's sake; it is existence with consequences beyond the predictable. Zupancic asks: 'Why desire?' And this question of desire, which may be the only question, takes the form of a 'no' that is also an 'I.' 'Writing my book on Antigone, I thought: 'There we go, the subject is closed - let's go to sleep.' And then along came Zupancic with her take and compelled me to rethink everything I did. In other words - and this is difficult for me to say - she is better than me here.' - Slavoj Zizek Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The case of a psychotic 14 year-old boy presented in its full form by the renowned French psychoanalyst. With transcription of comments and reactions made by the child, his parents and the therapist. Francoise Dolto stands alongside Jacques Lacan as a leading light of the Other French school, but is little translated and curiously unknown in the English-speaking world. In her lifetime, Dolto's research was integrated into schools, hospitals and popular media at a national level. First published in 1971, reading Dominique now gives a granular portrait of an adolescent's subjectivity and its familial and state inheritance. As such the book is an historical example of how the secular Republic of Metropolitan France produced forms of thought. trans.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Violence is arrayed against us because we're Black, or female, or queer, or undocumented. There is no rescue team coming for us. With that knowledge, we need a different operational base to recreate the world. It is not going to be a celebrity savior. Never was, never will be. If you're in a religious tradition that is millennia-old, consider how the last savior went out. It was always going to be bloody. It was always going to be traumatic. But there's a beauty to facing the reality of our lives. Not our lives as they're broken apart, written about, and then sold back to us in academic or celebrity discourse. But our lives as we understand them. The most important thing is showing up. Showing up and learning how to live by and with others, learning how to reinvent ourselves in this increasing wasteland. That's the good life. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. A ground-breaking document of the life and work of Catalan psychiatrist Francesc Tosquelles. With many texts translated for the first time in English, Healing Institutions is a direct encounter with his clinical, intellectual and political writings, assembled by Joana Maso. Exiled at the end of the Spanish Civil War, Tosquelles joined the Saint-Alban psychiatric hospital in Vichy France, carrying out a transformative clinical practice there until the 1960s. He worked with and against what he had, so that the hospital he helped to create was also the destitution of the structure that was there before. Saint-Alban was an extraordinary political event, a commune, an informal refuge in a time of extreme danger, a sort of upwelling spread through word of mouth. When someone arrived at the asylum, they were welcomed and that welcome never stopped, it was reinforced throughout their stay. This was Tosquelles' notion of hospitality. Each patient was necessary to what was called Saint-Alban. Care happened through a broad range of communal activities for staff and patients: theatre, cinema, collective writing, horticulture, the sorting of coloured pearls, gymnastics, singing, a monthly newspaper. Given state coercion, here the issue was above all the survival of dignity for every patient. The idea of combative asylums is not far-fetched, considering our own conditions: the generalised pathology in society at large, neoliberal governance, technical geopolitics willing to slaughter without blinking, to poison the atmosphere, to extract the minds along with the minerals, to make all of life, human and not human, quite difficult.
