Now a global best seller, the remarkable life of Rigoberta Menchú, a Guatemalan peasant woman, reflects on the experiences common to many Indian communities in Latin America. Menchú suffered gross injustice and hardship in her early life: her brother, father, and mother were murdered by the Guatemalan military. She learned Spanish and turned to catechistic work as an expression of political revolt, as well as religious commitment. Menchú vividly conveys the traditional beliefs of her community and her personal response to feminist and socialist ideas. 

One of the leading authorities on British archaeology, Barry Cunliffe, takes the listener on a fast-paced look at the ever-fascinating story of the Druids, as seen in the context of the times and places in which they practiced.

Von jeher muss der Mensch seinen "Stoffwechsel mit der Natur" organisieren. Für Marx war der wichtigste Faktor dabei die Arbeit. Als Prometheus, dem Mythos zufolge, das Feuer auf die Erde brachte, kam ein weiterer entscheidender Input hinzu. Seit Hunderttausenden Jahren wird es genutzt, um Nahrung zu garen und Werkzeuge zu härten. In diesem Sinne lässt sich sagen: Alle Geschichte bedeutet die Geschichte von Applikationen des Feuers.

R. Andrew Chesnut offers a fascinating portrayal of Santa Muerte, a skeleton saint whose cult has attracted millions of devotees over the past decade. Although condemned by mainstream churches, this folk saint's supernatural powers appeal to millions of Latin Americans and immigrants in the US. Devotees believe the Bony Lady (as she is affectionately called) to be the fastest and most effective miracle worker, and as such, her statuettes and paraphernalia outsell those of the Virgin of Guadalupe and Saint Jude, two other giants of Mexican religiosity. 

"El antropólogo inocente" es un texto ciertamente insólito del que se dijo: "Probablemente el libro más divertido que se ha publicado este año. Nigel Barley hace con la antropología lo que Gerald Durrell hizo con la zoología" (David Holloway). El autor, doctorado en Antropología en Oxford, se dedicó durante un par de años al estudio de una tribu poco conocida del Camerún, lo que constituyó su primera experiencia con el trabajo de campo, y casi la última.

The Subjection of Women is an 1869 essay by the English philosopher and political economist John Stuart Mill, based on ideas he developed jointly with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. At the time of its publication, the essay's argument for equality between the sexes was an affront to conventional norms regarding the status of men and women. Mill contended that the emancipation and education of women would have positive benefits for all people; the companionship of equally educated persons would result in the greater intellectual development of all.
