Book excerpt: From Academy Award-nominee Emily V. Gordon, creator of the blockbuster movie The Big Sick, comes a super-powered guide-to-life with comic-book flair and real-world wisdom for living your best life Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes, and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves - for the benefit of themselves and others. Super You is a fun, friendly, and unabashedly geeky guide to becoming the superhero of your own extraordinary life. Author Emily Gordon examines comic book tropes to find lessons that anyone can apply toward overcoming tragic events and adversity in their own lives. With activities in every chapter to help identify each person's superpowers, special tools, personal kryptonite -- and weapons against it -- Super You is the perfect sidekick for every growing hero, empowering everyday people to transform into the most kick-ass versions of themselves.

Book excerpt: Roberto entra al consumo de las drogas de la forma en que TODOS lo hacen; "Gradualmente", no se trata de una narración de hechos externos solamente, Roberto narra sus experiencias psíquicas, emocionales y sobre todo espirituales, en un drama de prostitución, homicidio, narcotráfico, corrupción, alcoholismo, drogadicción y espiritualidad. El alimento a sus apetitos perversos son satisfechos a su antojo pero, el espíritu también reclama su alimento que lo encuentra al alcance de su respiración, solo que al inhalarlo lo exhala rápidamente, los fantasmas de su mente nacieron en su infancia traumatizada por el abuso sexual, el alcoholismo de su padre y la drogadicción de sus hermanos mayores. La miseria interna es mezclada con la divinidad de su espíritu llevando en sus poros la lucha eterna del amor y el odio, la paz y la guerra, la muerte y la vida, la condena y la emancipación. La novela es narrada con lenguaje cotidiano e intencionalmente prosaico tocando la vulgaridad para remontar en la belleza de la descripción subjetiva y refinada para el disfrute de la lectura. En ningún momento es tediosa o predecible, contrario a esto va de un drama catastrófico familiar hasta llegar al culmen de la perversión individual en un intenso desarrollo existencial. Su vida se desarrolla en la ciudad de México encontrando su desenlace en un país tan lleno de paradojas sin sentido y que irónicamente es ahí donde el final se desarrolla. Los hijos de Dios... no es una novela religiosa, tampoco es una novela de superación personal, es una novela de realidad subjetiva vista desde un mexicano Drogadicto. A pesar de ello no deja de ser una historia ficticia mezclada con elementos reales, aunque los escépticos pueden muy bien leerla tendrán que responder a muchas preguntas que surgirán en su mente en el transcurso de la lectura. Por lo tanto la novela no busca dar solución a problemas existenciales, plasma los problemas existenciales más comunes para provocar empatía y analizar las alternativas de clarificación so pretexto de las adicciones. La motivación surgió después de muchos años de escuchar historias de adictos y, que a pesar de la diversidad de experiencias y que muchas de ellas son sorprendentes, todos ellos tienen algo en común: "El adicto usa droga por que busca algo", los adictos son buscadores y muchos de ellos se pierden en esa búsqueda. Su búsqueda no se centra en cosas tangibles, como posesiones económicas o materiales a pesar de las apariencias, su deseo de encontrar va mas allá de lo físico, por eso la mayoría de los drogos son metafísicos, su atención se detiene en lo misterioso, en la subjetividad y sobre todo en lo espiritual. Lo más curioso es que cada adicto encuentra su propio camino de búsqueda, los expertos opinan que la puerta de entrada al universo de las drogas inicia casualmente con el uso de una droga legal para terminar con las ilegales, sin embargo; se observa que hay un comportamiento previo a esto, conducta dirigida a la obtención del placer proporcionado por los instintos en el cuál el mas destacable es el sexual, cosa que no es de sorprenderse porque el efecto de cualquier droga es orgiástica...y es así querido lector que esta obra esta impregnada de erotismo pero descrita desde el interior del protagonista sin acudir a la descripción literal.

Book excerpt: This book is about transvestism and the performance of gender in Latin American literature and culture. Ben. Sifuentes-Jáuregui explores the figure of the transvestite and his/her relation to the body through a series of canonical Latin American texts. By analyzing works by Alejo Carpentier, José Donoso, Severo Sarduy and Manuel Puig (author of Kiss of the Spiderwoma n), alongside critical works in gender studies and queer theory, Sifuentes-Jáuregui shows how transvestism operates not only to destabilize, but often to affirm sexual, gender, national and political identities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benito Pérez Galdós, considered Spain’s most important novelist after Cervantes, wrote 77 novels, several works of theater and a number of other tomes during his lifetime (1843–1920). His works have been translated into all major languages of the world, and many of his most highly regarded novels, those of the contemporary period, have been translated into English two, three and even four times over. Of the few “contemporary novels” of Galdós that until now have not come to light in English, The Forbidden is certainly among the most noteworthy. The story line concerns a wealthy philanderer, José María Bueno de Guzmán, who attempts to buy the favors of his three beautiful married cousins. He is successful with the first, Eloísa, a grasping materialist who falls deeply in love with him. Then he rejects her in order to attempt to seduce the youngest, Camila. Meanwhile, the third, the pseudo-intellectual María Juana, jealous, seduces José María. But it is Camila, healthy, impetuous and wild, who resists his temptations and holds our attention. The novelist and critic Leopoldo Alas, Galdós’s contemporary, calls her “the most feminine, graceful, lively female character that any modern novelist has painted.” As a naturalistic study, in the manner of Balzac in particular, principal characters of Galdós’s other novels (El doctor Centeno, La de Bringas, La familia de León Roch) become fleetingly visible in The Forbidden. In addition, the entire Bueno de Guzmán family gives evidence of the naturalistic emphasis on heredity: they all display certain physical or mental disorders. Eloísa has a morbid fear of feathers, María Juana often feels that she has a tiny piece of cloth caught in her teeth, José María suffers bouts of depression, an uncle is a kleptomaniac, one of the relatives writes letters to himself, etc. At the same time, this novel shows the foibles of Spanish society where status is determined by one’s associates, by the wearing of finery, and by living on borrowed money. In their history of Spanish literature, Chandler and Schwartz call Galdós “the greatest novelist of the nineteenth century and the only one who deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with great novelists like Balzac, Dickens and Dostoievsky.” The Forbidden, written at the height of the author’s creative powers, is a major work and its publication for an English-speaking audience is long overdue.

Book excerpt: From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.

Book excerpt: The imperative of happiness dictates the conduct and direction of our lives. There is no escape from the tyranny of positivity. But is happiness the supreme good that all of us should pursue? So says a new breed of so-called happiness experts, with positive psychologists, happiness economists and self-development gurus at the forefront. With the support of influential institutions and multinational corporations, these self-proclaimed experts now tell us what governmental policies to apply, what educational interventions to make and what changes we must undertake in order to lead more successful, more meaningful and healthier lives. With a healthy scepticism, this book documents the powerful social impact of the science and industry of happiness, arguing that the neoliberal alliance between psychologists, economists and self-development gurus has given rise to a new and oppressive form of government and control in which happiness has been woven into the very fabric of power.

Book excerpt: This book addresses two significant research areas in an interdependent fashion. It is first of all a comprehensive but concise text that covers the recently developed and widely applicable methods of qualitative choice analysis, illustrating the general theory through simulation models of automobile demand and use. It is also a detailed study of automobile demand and use, presenting forecasts based on these powerful new techniques. The book develops the general principles that underlie qualitative choice models that are now being applied in numerous fields in addition to transportation, such as housing, labor, energy, communications, and criminology. The general form, derivation, and estimation of qualitative choice models are explained, and the major models - logit, probit, and GEV - are discussed in detail. And continuous/discrete models are introduced. In these, qualitative choice methods and standard regression techniques are combined to analyze situations that neither alone can accurately forecast. Summarizing previous research on auto demand, the book shows how qualitative choice methods can be used by applying them to specific auto-related decisions as the aggregate of individuals' choices. The simulation model that is constructed is a significant improvement over older models, and should prove more useful to agencies and organizations requiring accurate forecasting of auto demand and use for planning and policy development. The book concludes with an actual case study based on a model designed for the investigations of the California Energy Commission. Kenneth Train is Visiting Associate Professor in Economics at the University of California, Berkeley, and Director of Economic Research at Cambridge Systematics, Inc., also in Berkeley. Qualitative Choice Analysisis included in The MIT Press Transportation Studies Series, edited by Marvin L. Manheim.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existence of World Literature depends on specific processes, institutions, and actors involved in the global circulation of literary works. The contributions of this volume aim to pay attention to these multiple material dimensions of Latin American 20th and 21st century literatures. From perspectives informed by materialism, sociology, book studies, and digital humanities, the articles of this volume analyze the role of publishing houses, politics of translation, mediators and gatekeepers, allowing insights into the processes that enable books to cross borders and to be transformed into globally circulating commodities. The book focusses both on material (re)sources of literary archives, key actors in literary and cultural markets, prizes and book fairs, as well as on recent dimension of the digital age. Statements of some of the leading representatives of the global publishing world complement these analyses of the operations of selection and aggregation of value to literary texts.
