Albæk og Hylleberg har ved flere lejligheder debatteret deres egen generations samfundsmæssige ansvar - eller mangel på samme. »Min generation er den mest ansvarsløse, navlebeskuende og egocentriske generation, der nogensinde er blevet sat på Moder Jord,« lyder opsangen fra Morten Albæk. »Det er ikke de unge, som svigter de politiske institutioner og andre folkelige fællesskaber, men de eksisterende fællesskaber, som svigter de unge,« lyder Rasmus Hyllebergs svar. Denne bog er opbygget som en brevveksling mellem to meget uenige unge mennesker. Om forfatterne: Morten Albæk, født 1975, cand.mag. i historie og filosofi fra Aarhus Universitet. Morten Albæk var medstifter af og formand for Kulturselskabet Stilling (1999-2004) og har siden 2002 været ansat som chef for afdelingen Interessentrelationer i Danske Bank-koncernen. Han er fast kommentator ved Berlingske Tidende og P1 Morgen og er manden bag begreber som Generation fucked up og Græshoppegenerationen. Han var medlem af Højskoleudvalget under Undervisningsministeriet (2003-2004), er medinitiativtager til VallekildeRådet og en af landets mest efterspurgte foredragsholdere. Rasmus Hylleberg, født 1974, BA scient.pol. fra Aarhus Universitet. Rasmus Hylleberg har været engageret i dansk foreningsliv gennem mange år, bl.a. som spejderleder og formand for Dansk Ungdoms Fællesråd (1999-2003). Han er næstformand i Dansk Flygtningehjælp, styrelsesmedlem i Folkekirkens Nødhjælp og Kirkernes Verdensråd. Han har tidligere været ansat som politisk konsulent for Det Radikale Venstre og er p.t. medlem af partiets hovedbestyrelse. Han er derudover en aktiv samfundsdebattør og har skrevet en lang række artikler, især om demokrati og unge og om international politik (www.hylleberg.info).

Frustrated by her parents' decision to tuck her away, Meghan arrives at the academy burdened with secrets and a past she longs to escape. She must confront the truth about her family and her own abilities. As she struggles to fit in among her magical peers and conceals her true abilities, Meghan becomes entangled in a web of corruption and danger. With unexpected allies and a menacing threat lurking in the shadows, Meghan's journey at the academy will test her resilience and reveal her true power. In a world of secrets and shadows, protection comes at a price. Cody, a skilled bodyguard assigned to protect Meghan, daughter of influential council members, finds himself drawn into a web of secrets and shadows at the Academy of Ancients. As he keeps a watchful eye on Meghan, he begins to uncover the truth about her past, her struggles with magic, and the dark forces lurking within the academy. As danger lurks around every corner, Cody must confront his own past and navigate the treacherous landscape of power and deception to keep Meghan safe. Will they uncover the truth together, or will the shadows consume them both? Inheritance When the past haunts and the present hunts, only the truth can set them free. Cody thought he knew Meghan, but after a shocking revelation, he's left grappling with questions about her rare magical abilities. But there's no time for answers - the villain who terrorized them in the previous semester is back. This time, vengeful spirits of the past are rising, and they're coming for Meghan. As the chilling winter sets in, Cody and Meghan find themselves in a fight for survival against an unseen enemy and their own haunted pasts. Meghan's magic may be their only hope, but she's terrified of her own power. As Cody struggles with his own burgeoning feelings for Meghan, he must help her harness her powers and confront the wraiths hell-bent on her destruction. But with the threat of his own past rising, can he protect Meghan, or will their intertwined destinies lead to their downfall? In a world where magic is as deadly as it is beautiful, Cody and Meghan must face their pasts, their fears, and their feelings to uncover the truth and conquer the terror that stalks them. Time is running out, and in their darkest hour, they'll learn that only the truth can set them free.

Simultaneously, Meghan grapples with her blossoming magical powers, never knowing she's walking into a deadly trap. An urgent message from her parents lures Meghan into the summoner's cruel clutches. Held hostage along with her parents, she must rely on her burgeoning magical strength to save them all. While time is running out, Cody races against the clock to save the woman he swore to protect, knowing that her survival is key to their shared destiny. As Meghan fights to defeat the enemy who haunts her past, and Cody battles to reach her before it's too late, they both discover the true meaning of power, sacrifice, and love. Mysterious necromancers. Wicked summoners. Fierce witches. Occasional familiars. Military experiments. Secret councils. Forbidden alliances. The Academy of Ancients will suck you in.

The 1990s was the decade in which the Soviet Union collapsed and Francis Fukuyama declared the 'end of history'. Nelson Mandela was released from prison, Google was launched and scientists in Edinburgh cloned a sheep from a single cell. It was also a time in which the president of the United States discussed fellatio on network television and the world's most photographed woman died in a car crash in Paris. Radical pop band The KLF burned a million quid on a Scottish island, while the most-watched programme on TV was Baywatch. Anti-globalisation protestors in France attacked McDonald's restaurants and American survivalists stockpiled guns and tinned food in preparation for Y2K. For those who lived through it, the 1990s glow in the memory with a mixture of proximity and distance, familiarity and strangeness. It is the decade about which we know so much yet understand too little. Taking a kaleidoscopic view of the politics, social history, arts and popular culture of the era, James Brooke-Smith asks – what was the 1990s? A lost golden age of liberal optimism? A time of fin-de-siècle decadence? Or the seedbed for the discontents we face today?

FINALIST FOR THE GOVERNOR GENERAL'S LITERARY AWARD A CBC BEST CANADIAN NONFICTION BOOK OF 2022 AN INDIGO TOP TEN BEST SELF-HELP BOOK OF 2022 "A vital and deeply compelling read.” —Adam McKay, award-winning writer, director and producer (Don’t Look Up) “Britt Wray shows that addressing global climate change begins with attending to the climate within.” —Dr. Gabor Maté, author of The Myth of Normal "Read this courageous book.” —Naomi Klein An impassioned generational perspective on how to stay sane amid climate disruption. Climate and environment-related fears and anxieties are on the rise everywhere. As with any type of stress, eco-anxiety can lead to lead to burnout, avoidance, or a disturbance of daily functioning. In Generation Dread, Britt Wray seamlessly merges scientific knowledge with emotional insight to show how these intense feelings are a healthy response to the troubled state of the world. The first crucial step toward becoming an engaged steward of the planet is connecting with our climate emotions, seeing them as a sign of humanity, and learning how to live with them. We have to face and value eco-anxiety, Wray argues, before we can conquer the deeply ingrained, widespread reactions of denial and disavowal that have led humanity to this alarming period of ecological decline. It’s not a level playing field when it comes to our vulnerability to the climate crisis, she notes, but as the situation worsens, we are all on the field—and unlocking deep stores of compassion and care is more important than ever. Weaving in insights from climate-aware therapists, critical perspectives on race and privilege in this crisis, ideas about the future of mental health innovation, and creative coping strategies, Generation Dread brilliantly illuminates how we can learn from the past, from our own emotions, and from each other to survive—and even thrive—in a changing world.

What can contemporary psychoanalysis bring to the understanding of Generation X, a cohort for whom the trivialization of a dizzying array of possible experiences teamed with the pressure to lead spectacular lives often leads to diffuse feelings of confusion, depression, and disorientation. The Designed Self chronicles Strenger's therapeutic encounters with five extraordinarily gifted young adults for whom the ideal of authenticity long associated with the Baby-Boom generation was supplanted by the need to experiment endlessly with the self. Perpetual self-experimentation, constantly reinforced by the media, came to encompass everything from career choice, to hair color, to body shape, to gender identity. In compelling clinical stories, Strenger introduces us to patients for whom the project of shaping the self had become a cultural imperative no less than an expression of individuality. At once insightful and cautionary, The Designed Self investigates how psychoanalysis must change if it is to claim cultural relevance and therapeutic effectiveness in The Age of the Designed Self.

Suddenly I saw a pale gray shape dart in front of my car. At first I thought it was just a large dog, thin and long-legged. Trapped between the high wall on the left and the unbroken row of parked cars to the right, the animal ran at a relaxed canter directly down the center of the road a few feet in front of me. I slowed even more. The beast was caught in the headlights and I saw it was no neighborhood pooch out for a midnight stroll. It was a coyote and it was hunting.

Russell Simmons, the original and eternal hip-hop mogul, is one of the most innovative and influential figures in modern American business and culture. When no one outside of inner-city New York had even heard of hip-hop, Simmons saw the seeds of a global force that would change the way people talk, dress, listen to music, and choose the heroes they hang on their walls. Today, he oversees a sprawling, multimillion-dollar empire of culture-defining businesses in everything from music to fashion, advertising to film, and media to visual art. At the same time he’s broadened his interests and influence and pushed hip-hop to new plateaus of power and relevance. Life and Def is a one-of-a-kind tale that interweaves the remarkable journey of Russell Simmons with the story of the culture he’s transformed and been transformed by. In his own brash, compelling voice, Simmons chronicles his numerous business successes and occasional failures. He tells the story of the founding of the legendary Def Jam Records, whose roster stretches from original rap icons like L.L. Cool J, Public Enemy, and the Beastie Boys to today’s top stars, including Jay-Z and DMX. He traces the launching of Def Comedy Jam, the long-running hit television series that introduced a new generation of black comedic stars to America, from Martin Lawrence and Bill Bellamy to Bernie Mac and Chris Rock. He spins hilarious tales of his adventures in Hollywood, where he’s produced hit movies like Eddie Murphy’s The Nutty Professor and worked with quirky geniuses like Abel Ferrara. He also tells the story of Phat Farm, the wildly successful pioneering urban clothing label whose origins lay in Russell’s longtime fascination with fashion (and fashion models). Simmons’s story is also one of personal transformation, from the driven man who in the heady days of early success indulged himself with drugs, sex, and world-class decadence to the husband and father he is today, a man who has found meaning in activism, philanthropy, and spiritual practice while never losing his passion for the social, political, artistic, and commercial potential of hip-hop. Through it all he relates telling anecdotes about the characters he’s dealt with: models and gangsters, street poets and gurus, and major players like Donald Trump, Sean Combs, Jon Peters, and Tupac Shakur. Full of advice, opinions, and behind-the-scenes scoop, Life and Def is the story of the quintessential hip-hop life.
