A masterwork by one of the great thinkers of our time. - Dani ShapiroAdeliriously smart and empathetic book that makes a match between the way you love and the way you were loved: sparks ensue. - Joshua CohenWhat keeps us from having the relationships we want?Why cant we find the right partner?Why do we repeat the same painful patterns?How can we keep love alive? The children we once were live inside us, and our early relationships are the templates for our later emotional and sexual attractions. Although they try to protect us, they are also the source of our relational struggles, awakening our fears and longings, and constructing our love life, often without our permission.Diving deep into patients intimate lives, as well as her own, here psychoanalyst Dr Galit Atlas exposes our most private desires, unmet needs, yearnings and pain. Through her intricate portrayal of lives as complex as our own, we uncover the frightened child, the melancholic child, the ashamed child, the invisible child and the guilty child, and are gifted a nuanced understanding of the link between our childhood wounds and our adult love. By inviting our childhood selves to have a seat at the table, we learn to work through our past instead of playing it out in our relationships.This therapeutic journey is an emotional, multi-dimensional understanding of intimacy, offering a transformative path to healing.

Over 50% of Irish people under 40 are either living with their parents or in share accommodation, unable to live either by themselves or with partners despite that being their preference. The housing crisis is often spoken of as a bubble, but economics professor Ronan Lyons argues that this metaphor is outdated. Rather, Ireland suffers from a brittle housing system, one that has lost the ability to respond to change. This groundbreaking book shows what that brittleness is doing to society, how it emerged and, most critically, how a healthier housing system can be built.

Museums are anything but wild. Historically, museums have functioned as key sites for the production of boundaries between nature and culture. Nature might be presented in form and image, but its processes must not be allowed to take hold within museum architecture. In a warming world, climate-controlled interiors are increasingly vulnerable to floods, fires, and power failures. In an effort to address environmental crises, artists chop through walls, fill them with dirt, and bring in insects, plants, and animals, while others leave the institution altogether to embrace the specificity of site. Audiences are drawn outside and off-screen, into zones that recalibrate norms of aesthetic attention. Rewilding the Museum explores a paradox that also lurks at the heart of restoration ecology: We cannot return to past fantasies of "nature." Rather, we must foster ecologies that support biodiversity and stable geophysical cycles. This book asks how artists and curators are working with and against exhibition infrastructures to elaborate contemporary ideas of nature.
