...an intelligent take-down, but funny tooThe TimesHow To Be Well was made Welldoings Book of The Month.Peloton. Pilates. Biohacking. Colonics. Ashwagandha. How did we get here and how did the idea of wellness become integrated with womens lives?Penetrating and thought-provoking, this will cause readers to think twice before reaching for the latest purported cure-all. Publishers WeeklyA rollicking exploration of our desperation for wellness, our devotion to CBD, (and) self-care...deftly separating the gobbledygook from the truly transformative. Ariel Levy, author of The Rules Do Not ApplyToday, the wellness industry is a $3.7 trillion behemoth that touches us all. Amy Larocca takes readers into the communities that swear by their activated charcoal toothpaste and green juice enemas, explaining what each of these practices really is, and what the science says.Larocca holds a magnifying glass to alternative medicine and nouveau lifestyle prescriptions and tries a lot herself along the way ultimately delivering an assessment of how the wellness industry embodies our (gendered, class-based, racialised) perceptions of care and self-improvement, and how it preys on our unshakable fear of the unknown. She traces the history of how the beauty and fashion industries have peddled snake oil to women for decades, and why we keep coming back for more.

Un bambino morto a cinque anni osserva il mondo da un altrove misterioso. È uno spirito senza pace, ma non malvagio, legato indissolubilmente alla famiglia che, senza saperlo, ha determinato il suo destino. Attraverso i suoi occhi e la sua voce tenera, ironica e malinconica vengono ricostruiti cento anni di drammi, amori, partenze e ritorni: la storia dei Moranda, una famiglia calabrese attraversata da sciagure e da unumanita ruvida ma autentica. Dal crollo di un orfanotrofio nel 1887 che da il via a un legame invisibile quanto potentissimo fino alle conseguenze delle due guerre mondiali, passando per il terremoto di Messina del 1908, lemigrazione, la poverta, la vergogna, la speranza. Il romanzo segue generazioni di uomini e donne segnati da lutti improvvisi, fallimenti, solitudini e partenze, capaci sempre di rialzarsi. Al centro di tutto ce il mistero di quel bambino: chi era? Perche osserva e racconta proprio questa famiglia? Qual e il filo che lo lega a loro, e cosa cerca nel raccontare ogni dettaglio delle loro vite? Ispirato a una storia vera, con uno stile vibrante e intimo, e venature di umorismo amaro, la narrazione intreccia realta storica e memoria personale, affidando a un narratore non vivente il compito piu difficile: dare voce allassenza e rendere eterno il ricordo.

The Hamamatsu Deaf Killer: Seisaku Nakamura and Wartime Japans Systemic FailuresIn 1938, a fourteen-year-old deaf boy named Seisaku Nakamura began a four-year killing spree that would claim at least nine lives in wartime Japan, including members of his own family. This meticulously researched historical true crime narrative examines how a mathematically gifted student at a school for the deaf transformed into a serial killer, revealing the catastrophic convergence of disability stigma, familial abuse, and state-sanctioned violence that characterized Japanese society during the Pacific War.Drawing on police records, psychiatric evaluations, and contemporary newspaper accounts, this book traces Nakamuras trajectory from his birth in 1923 through his execution in 1944, situating his case within broader patterns of juvenile delinquency that contradicted wartime propaganda about social cohesion and moral virtue. The narrative explores how the suppression of crime reporting enabled his violence to continue, how the Wartime Criminal Special Law stripped away juvenile protections to ensure his swift execution, and how his case illuminates persistent patterns of ableism in Japanese society from the concept of spiritual pollution to the 2016 Sagamihara massacre. This is a story about what happens when disability meets stigma rather than support, when law serves state power rather than justice, and when societies suppress uncomfortable truths about their own failures.
