GUARDIAN In this exceptional biography, Pulitzer Prize finalist Mary Gabriel chronicles the meteoric rise and enduring influence of the greatest female pop icon of the modern era: Madonna.

Amid the scourge of AIDS, she brought queer identities into the mainstream, fiercely defending a person''s right to love whomever - and be whoever - they wanted. Despite fierce criticism, she never separated her music from her political activism. And as an artist, she never stopped experimenting. Madonna existed to push past boundaries by creating provocative, visionary music, videos, films and live performances that changed culture globally.

Quitting - Julia Keller - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

Do you know when to persevere and when to quit? Jacina Ardern resigned as the prime minister of New Zealand. Simone Biles didn''t compete in the Tokyo Olympics. Prince Harry and Princess Mako both left their royal families. The Great Resignation rages on and even the New York Times is telling us not to ''be a martyr to grit.''In Quitting , Pulitzer prize-winning writer Julia Keller dives deep into ''the neuroscience of nope,'' as well as the social phenomena that drive our reluctance to throw in the towel, to dismantle the myth of perseverance once and for all. Combining reportage from the front lines of neuroscience, pop culture and concrete practical advice for not just why but when and how to quit, Keller gives readers permission to pull the plug, live with intention and shape their own lives without fear and pressure - at work, at home, in our relationships, and beyond. She has spoken to more than 150 experts for this book, from scientists to sociologists to business-psych guru Adam Grant.

But Victor soon becomes a pawn in the raging debate about nature vs nurture, and Itard''s attempts to civilise him bear little fruit.

We Need Snowflakes - Hannah Jewell - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

Is today''s youth over sensitive, mollycoddled and intellectually pathetic? Does the scourge of political correctness threaten the very fabric of our nations? Yes, and yes! comes the cry of the incensed politician, columnist, comedian, disgruntled father, and baby boomer. Dubbed the ''snowflake generation'', these hypersensitive cowards are up in arms about silly things like bathrooms smeared with faeces in the shape of Swastikas, climate change, and statues of colonisers being kept in their natural habitats of universities and town squares. They make obstinate requests like wondering if a vegan option might be available, or if you could (please) use their correct pronouns. In response to this outrage, writer and Washington Post pop culture host Hannah Jewell has decided to write a book to explain why being a snowflake might not be a bad thing. It might even make the world a better place. Subversive, provocative and very funny, Hannah explains how, shockingly, despising the generation that comes after your own isn''t actually a new thing, and why it''s good for students (and indeed the rest of us) to kick off. She shows how you can instill resilience in children without having to live through a war or be made to eat octopus; and provides a handy guide to how you - yes, you! - can also become a snowflake and help to make the world a kinder, more empathetic place.
