Everywoman - Jess Phillips
SHORTLISTED FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY BOOK AWARDSâ ˜Jess Phillips writes like she talks: brilliantly. Her humour and passion shine through every page. Loved it.â ™ ROBERT WEBB_____________________If youâ ™re thinking, â ˜Jess who?â ™ then Iâ ™m glad that there was something about â ˜Everywomanâ ™ and â ˜truthâ ™ that caught your eye.Or you might already know me as that gobby MP who has a tendency to shout about the stuff I care about. Because Iâ ™m a woman with a cause, I have been called a feminazi witch, a murderer and threatened with rape. The internet attracts a classy crowd. So, speaking the truth isnâ ™t always easy but I believe itâ ™s worth it. And I want you to believe it too. The truth can be empowering, the truth can lead to greater equality, and the world would be incredibly boring if we let all of those people who allegedly know everything, say everything. By demanding to be heard, by dealing with our imposter syndrome, by being cheerleaders, doers not sayers, creating our own networks and by daring to believe that we can make a difference, we can. Weâ ™re women and weâ ™re kick-ass. And thatâ ™s the truth._____________________ Joyfully candid and very funny. Guardian Jess Phillips knows the truth . . . and here she shows how scary and sad as well as joyful and liberating the answers can be. Damian Barr Everywoman has all the laughs [of Lena Dunham and Caitlin Moran] with a backbone of real glinting anger . . .there were so many funny and wise things on each page that whittling them down into a review seemed impossible. Julie Birchill, Spectator As fresh as mountain air amid the Westminster tumbleweed. Metro Arresting.

Seeing Differently: The Phillips Collects for a New Century - David C Driskell, Mary Jane Jacob, Dorothy Kosinski
Top 10 Title, Art/Architecture/Photography, Publishers Weekly Spring 2021 Announcement IssueThe Phillips Collection—America’s first museum of modern art—was founded in Washington, DC, in 1921 by Duncan Phillips as a memorial to his father, Duncan Clinch Phillips, and his brother, James, who died in the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic. Recognizing the healing power of art, Phillips sought to inspire others to “see beautifully as true artists see.” This ground-breaking volume, planned in conjunction with the museum’s centennial, offers an unprecedented breadth of insights and inclusive narratives on the Phillips’s growing art collection from a range of voices, including artists, curators, and critics, who shed light on the museum’s acquisitions since 2000.Seeing Differently features diverse artistic expressions across wide-ranging media by renowned artists from the 19th to the 21st centuries, including John Akomfrah, Benny Andrews, Esther Bubley, Edgar Degas, Anselm Kiefer, Simone Leigh, and Aimé Mpane. This richly illustrated book includes an opening essay by Phillips director Dorothy Kosinski, artist conversations with John Edmonds, Whitfield Lovell, Alyson Shotz, and the late David C. Driskell, and 11 thematic essays by scholars and practitioners across disciplines. Its over 200 plates feature paintings, sculptures, videos, quilts, prints, and photographs, many with object responses by notable contributors, including artists Anthony Gormley, Sean Scully, Renée Stout, and Jennifer Wen Ma, among others.

In Writing - Adam Phillips
Acclaimed author of On Kissing, Tickling and Being Bored and On KindnessA collection of literary essays like no other - exploring the deep connections between literature and psychoanalysis - from Britain s leading psychoanalyst.For Adam Phillips - as for Freud and many of his followers - poetry and poets have always held an essential place, as both precursors and unofficial collaborators in the psychoanalytic project. But the same has never held true in reverse. What, Phillips wonders, at the start of this deeply engaging book, has psychoanalysis meant for writers? And what can writing do for psychoanalysis?Phillips explores these questions through an exhilarating series of encounters with - and vivid readings of - writers he has loved, from Byron and Barthes to Shakespeare and Sebald. And in the process he demonstrates, through his own unique style, how literature and psychoanalysis can speak to and of each other. Adam Phillips is that rarest of phenomena, a trained clinician who is also a sublime writer - John Banville, author of The Sea Reading Phillips, you may be amused, vexed, dazzled. But the one thing you will never be is bored Observer One of those writers whom it is a pleasure simply to hear think Sunday Telegraph

War and Power - Phillips Payson O
Phillips O Brien is one of the keenest observers of modern strategy, and his new book takes a deep historical look at the evolution of warfare and its implications for conflicts like the ongoing one in Ukraine Francis Fukuyama--------------------War and power are two of the most-widely discussed issues in all of human history, and yet they are, time and again, misunderstood often disastrously so.Whilst we might think the outcome of war is determined by so-called Great Powers who dominate their opponents with their impressive size and military prowess, the reality of modern conflict, as renowned strategic historian Professor Phillips Payson O Brien demonstrates, is very different. He urges us instead to look for Full Spectrum Powers .For if we are considering how powerful a nation is and who will win a war, we need to think less about weapons, and more about the economies and societies that produce them; less about individual battles, and more about sustaining campaigns and alliances in which states operate.Using fascinating examples from the late 19th century to the present day, War and Power explains how misunderstanding war and power has led to terrible, even preventable conflicts such as the war in Ukraine and how more accurate analysis can help us consider the potential conflict between the US and China.War and Power provides a bold new way of understanding the dangerous world around us.-------------------- Phillips O Brien is always fantastic. Heterodox. He s pretty scathing, even about Biden administration policy . . . A really interesting book Paul Krugman, Distinguished Professor of Economics As Phillips O Brien points out in this important book, the character of war evolves, but some of the underlying truths, particularly from the second World War, are still very much with us.

Why Solange Matters - Stephanie Phillips
A ROUGH TRADE, THE TIMES, CLASH BOOK OF THE YEARThe dramatic story of Solange: a musician and artist whose unconventional journey to international success was far more important than her family name. Why Solange Matters is a significant and sober treatise on popular music . . . This book is more than necessary. THURSTON MOORE The author s prose sparkles . . . This is a book about what freedom could look like for Black women. CALEB AZUMAH NELSON, OBSERVER Invigorating . . . much more than a dry thesis and at times something nearer to personal reverie. IAN PENMAN, LONDON REVIEW OF BOOKS A love letter to quirkly black creatives . . . [Phillips ] vibrant writing reminds us how Solange lit the flame of creativity within many Black women. gal-demGrowing up in the shadow of her superstar sister, Beyoncé, and defying an industry that attempted to bend her to its rigid image of a Black woman, Solange Knowles has become a pivotal musician and artist in her own right.In Why Solange Matters, Stephanie Phillips chronicles the creative journey of Solange, a beloved voice of the Black Lives Matter generation. A Black feminist punk musician herself, Phillips addresses not only the unpredictable trajectory of Solange⠙s career but also how she and other Black women see themselves through the musician⠙s repertoire. First, she traces Solange⠙s progress through an inflexible industry, charting the artist⠙s development up to 2016, when the release of her third album, A Seat at the Table, redefined her career. With this record and, then, When I Get Home (2019), Phillips describes how Solange has embraced activism, anger, Black womanhood and intergenerational trauma to inform her remarkable art.Why Solange Matters not only cements the subject in the pantheon of world-changing twenty-first-century musicians, it introduces its writer as an important new voice.

Americké konspirace - Jesse Ventura, Russell Dick
V tomto výbušném výčtu zločinů a následných maskovacích operací, nabízí Jesse Ventura svým čtenářům odlišný pohled na příběhy, které většina z nás buď slyšela nebo o nich četla v učebnicích historie. Obzvláště ho zajímá ten propastný rozdíl mezi tím, co všechno Americký státní sektor má za informace, a tím co je prezentováno běžným lidem. Ale i média jsou v zatajování reálné historie nápomocna, neboť často odmítají pohlížet na věci z odlišných úhlů pohledu, nebo dokonce aktivně umlčují hlasy lidí, kteří nesouhlasí s názorem širší veřejnosti. Jesse se tedy blíže podívá na všechny ty teorie, které byly během uplynulých let prezentovány, pohlédne jak na pravdu tak i na lži. Bývalý guvernér Ventura se pravdy nebojí. Jak sám říká: Když je mi k něčemu odepřen přístup, nenechám se zastrašit, právě naopak - Naštve mne to. Ve své knize Americká spiknutí, se pouští do hledání odpovědí na otázky: - Proč se tvrdí, že J. F. Kennedy byl zastřelen zezadu, když je na první pohled vidět, že mu kulka trhla hlavou prudce dozadu? - Je pravdou, že banda zlodějů v aféře Watergate úmyslně zpackala své vloupání, a to na základě pokynů CIA? - Jakým způsobem pomohlo použití elektronických hlasovacích přístrojů, Republikánské straně zvítězit ve dvou - a dokonce skoro ve třech - volbách? - Zda mohly pouhé dva Boeingy 757, strhnout toho osudného jedenáctého září onu dvojici mrakodrapů WTC, a to takovým způsobem, že se roztavila jejich nosná ocelová konstrukce, a že byly v sutinách podzemní požáry ještě více jak tři měsíce po celé katastrofě? - Co je pravdy na prohlášení Americké vlády z roku 2008, že některé korporace jsou Too big to fail (Příliš velké, než aby jim mohlo být dovoleno zbankrotovat), a že tedy musejí býti zachráněny, aby nedošlo k ekonomickému kolapsu? - A také se podívá na postupné rozbourávání konceptu občanských svobod, a ukáže vám, jak je toto možné použít pro zavedení stanného práva. Možná, že nebudete věřit všemu, co se v knize Americká spiknutí dočtete, ale alespoň vás tato knížka donutí se hlouběji zamyslet nad všemi těmi věcmi, kterým momentálně věříte. JESSE VENTURA je bývalý guvernér státu Minnesota a autor několika bestsellerů a také má vlastní televizní show Konspirační Teorie (na kanálu TruTV). Žije ve státě Minnesota ale také v Mexiku. DICK RUSSELL je držitel ocenění od společnosti Chevron, ale také autor již deseti knižních titulů, mezi kterými je i jeho předchozí spolupráce s Jesse Venturou, pod názvem Don t start the revolution without me! (Nezačínejte tu revoluci beze mě!, u nás kniha zatím nevyšla)

Ale buďme upřímní, nebyla to zrovna procházka rájem a občas jsme to prostě opravdu pořádně a kvalitně podělali. Od našeho předka, který sletěl z větve, přes rakouskou armádu, jež jedné prochlastané noci zaútočila sama na sebe, až k přední světové supervelmoci, která jako prezidenta zvolila moderátora TV show… je celkem na místě si jako druh říci, že jsme se s věkem rozhodně nestali moudřejšími.

A Brief History of the End of the F*cking World - Tom Phillips
Superb ... entertaining ... Phillips traverses this sprawling terrain with energy and charm Telegraph Exceptionally funny from cover to cover, it is not only an entertaining read but also deeply researched and thoughtful Irish Independent Fans of Phillips s earlier books Humans and Truth will be pleased that the ex-BuzzFeed editor is on form, not letting the grimness of his subject spoil his gagsmithery Guardian A great read ... [Phillips] fills his timeline of unfilled apocalypses with wry humour New ScientistDo you feel like we re living in the end times? Does it seem like everything is on fire, and one disaster follows another? Here s a small comfort: you re not the first to feel that way. If there s one thing that people throughout history have agreed on, it s that history wasn t going to be around for much longer.This book is about the apocalypse, and how humans have always believed it to be very f*cking nigh. Across thousands of years, we ll meet weird cults, failed prophets and mass panics, holy warriors leading revolts in anticipation of the last days, and suburbanites waiting for aliens to rescue them from a doomed Earth. We ll journey back to the worst period to be alive , as the world reeled from a simultaneous pandemic and climate crisis. And we ll look to the future to ask the unnerving question: how might it all end?But it s also a book about how we live in a world where catastrophe is always looming - whether it s a madman with a nuclear button or the slow burn of environmental collapse. Because when we talk about the end of the world, what we really mean is the end of our world. Our obsession with doomsday is really about change: our fear of it, and our desire for it, and how - ultimately - we can find hope in it.Praise for the Brief History series: Uproarious . . . Abundant good humour The Times Witty, entertaining and slightly distressing... You should probably read it Sarah Knight, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck Brilliant.

On Giving Up - Adam Phillips
A wise, generous book Washington PostFrom acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we must give up to feel more alive. To give up or not to give up?The question can feel inescapable but the answer is never simple. Giving up our supposed vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is quite another. One form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to admire and aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not actively undesirable. There are always, it turns out, both good and bad sacrifices, but it is not always clear beforehand which is which. We give something up because we believe we can no longer go on as we are. In this sense, giving up is a critical moment - an attempt to make a different future. In On Giving Up, acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips illuminates both the gaps and the connections between the many ways of giving up, and helps us to address the central question: what must we give up in order to feel more alive?

Battleground - Phillips Christopher
The essential guide to geopolitics in the modern Middle East  The Middle East is in crisis. The shocking events of the war in Gaza have rocked the entire region. More than a decade ago, the Arab Spring had raised hopes of a new beginning but instead ushered in a series of civil wars, coups, and even harsher autocracies. Tensions were exacerbated by the meddling of outsiders, as regional and global powers sought to further their interests. The United States, for so long the dominant actor, had stepped back, leaving a vacuum behind it to be fought over.  Christopher Phillips explores geopolitical rivalries in the region, and the major external powers vying for influence: Russia, China, the EU, and the US. Moving through ten key flashpoints, from Syria to Palestine, Phillips argues that the United States⠙ overextension after the Cold War, and retreat in the 2010s, has imbalanced the region. Today, the Middle East remains blighted by conflicts of unprecedented violence and a post-American scramble for power ⠓ leaving its fate in the balance.

Second Chances - Stephen Greenblatt, Adam Phillips
A powerful exploration of the human capacity for renewal, as seen through Shakespeare and Freud  ⠜A compellingly readable and intelligent book. . . . Both authors write with impressive energy.â â ”Rowan Williams, New Statesman  In this fresh investigation, Stephen Greenblatt and Adam Phillips explore how the second chance has been an essential feature of the literary imagination and a promise so central to our existence that we try to reproduce it again and again. Innumerable stories, from the Homeric epics to the New Testament, and from Oedipus Rex to Hamlet, explore the realization or failure of second chancesâ ”outcomes that depend on accident, acts of will, or fate. Such stories let us repeatedly rehearse the experience of loss and recovery: to know the joy that comes with a renewal of love and pleasure and to face the pain that comes with realizing that some damage can never be undone.  Through a series of illuminating readings, the authors show how Shakespeare was the supreme virtuoso of the second chance and Freud was its supreme interpreter. Both Shakespeare and Freud believed that we can narrate our life stories as tales of transformation, of momentous shifts, constrained by time and place but often still possible. Ranging from The Comedy of Errors to The Winterâ ™s Tale, and from D. W. Winnicott to Marcel Proust, the authors challenge readers to imagine how, as Phillips writes, â œit is the mending that matters.â

Invisible Jesus - Scot McKnight, Tommy Preson Phillips
Is Deconstruction A Rebellion Against God or a Prophetic Movement Resisting a Distorted Gospel? In recent years, we ve seen an increase in the number of Christians who are deconstructing their faith—critically analyzing Christianity and the church and finding that it falls short. Many end up leaving behind the beliefs and commitments they formerly held. While many have written on how to reverse this trend, Scot McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips believe that deconstruction isn’t a problem but a voice…And we need to listen to what it is saying to the church.Deconstructors are uncovering serious weaknesses in today s church—a renewed fundamentalism, toxic leadership, and legalistic thinking among them. Utilizing the results of recent studies by Pew, Gallup, and others, McKnight and Phillips take a careful look at what deconstructors are really saying, seeking to better understand why many are shedding elements of the faith and church of their youth but also engaging in a reconstruction process, finding Jesus afresh. They are losing their religion, but not losing Jesus.Filled with stories of those who have walked the path of deconstruction without losing their faith, Invisible Jesus is a prophetic call to examine ourselves and discern if the faith we practice and the church we belong to is really representative of the Jesus we follow. Each chapter looks at a different topic and offers biblical reflections that call for us to not only better listen, but to change how we live out our faith as followers of Jesus today.

The arrival of its 500 passengers, the first generation of Caribbean migrants in the UK, was the initial step in the formation of a new identity: the black Briton.Fifty years later, Mike and Trevor Phillips spoke to those on the Windrush itself, as well as those who followed, to tell the story of Britain in the second half of the twentieth century through the eyes of the outsiders who became insiders.Now updated to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the shipâ ™s voyage and including reflections on its political and cultural legacy in 2023, Windrush is an essential record of this transformative era in British social history.

[Phillips and Elledge] pair the abundant good humour of this book with a warning about the corrosive effects of conspiracy theories The TimesFrom the Satanic Panic to the anti-vaxx movement, the moon landing to Pizzagate, it s always been human nature to believe we re being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we absolutely are).But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the group chat, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own - and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might actually be doing it some damage.In Conspiracy, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on a fascinating, insightful and often hilarious journey through conspiracy theories old and new, to try and answer a vital question for our times: how can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards, and start trusting hard evidence again?Praise for the Brief History series: Witty, entertaining and slightly distressing...

A Humument - Tom Phillips
The final edition of the late Tom Phillipsâ ™s â ˜defining masterpiece of postmodernismâ ™. In 1966 the artist Tom Phillips discovered A Human Document (1892), an obscure Victorian romance by W.H. Mallock, and set himself the task of altering every page, by painting, collage or cut-up techniques, to create an entirely new version. Some of Mallockâ ™s original text remains intact and through the illustrated pages the character of Bill Toge, Phillipsâ ™s anti-hero, and his romantic plight emerges. First published in 1973, A Humument â “ as Phillips titled his altered book â “ quickly established itself as a cult classic. From that point, the artist worked towards a complete revision of his original, adding new pages in successive editions. That process is now finished. This final edition presents an entirely new and complete version of A Humument. It includes a revised Introduction by the late artist, in which he reflects on the 50-year project, and 92 new illustrated pages.

He co-created fan-favourite characters Devlin Waugh and Armitage as well as drawing for classic strips Judge Dredd and Sinister/Dexter. This collection forms a retrospective of Phillips work for 2000 AD and shows how his art evolved from the fully painted work and collage of the early 1990s, to the familiar style he employs on hit books today.

Monogamy - Adam Phillips
A couple is a conspiracy in search of a crime. Sex is often the closest they can get. All the present controversies about the family are really discussions about monogamy. About what keeps people together and why they should stay together. Now, in a book of 121 aphorisms, Adam Phillips asks why we all believe in monogamy, and why we find it so difficult to think about. Everyone knows that most people, however much they may love their partner, are capable of loving and desiring more than one person at a time. It may be reassuring, but it is in fact very demanding -- and often cruel -- to assume that only one person can give us what we want. At least in sexual matters, sharing seems to go deeply against the grain. Monogamy is so much taken for granted as the foundation of the family and of family values that, as with anything that seems essential, we are very wary of being critical of it. But, as Adam Phillips suggests, it is surely worth wondering why the faithful couple has such a hold on our imagination, and how it has come to be such an ideal.

Všechny tři děti se posléze dostanou k otcovým rodičům, jejichž milující, ale tvrdá výchova brzy vyvolá první konflikty. Celý dům i paměť všech členů rodiny navíc bez ustání trýznivě prostupuje duch Jesseho drogově závislého otce. Jesse se ve snaze vyrovnat s minulostí propadá do sebedestruktivního cyklu drogové a alkoholové závislosti a drobných zločinů, v důsledku nichž stráví s krátkými přestávkami víc než deset let na ulici. Teprve pak si uvědomí, že jestli nezačne žít jinak, zemře.Ve svých dojemně lidských, srdceryvných pamětech se Thistle upřímně a nebojácně svěřuje se svou problematickou minulostí, píše o ústrcích, které zažil, i o tom, jak se dozvěděl pravdu o svých rodičích. Díky své vytrvalosti a touze po vzdělání – a také nově nalezené lásce – si našel cestu zpět do kruhu domorodé rodiny a kultury, z níž pochází.Kniha je ale nejen výmluvným líčením následků, které přinášejí předsudky a rasismus – jejím hlavním poselstvím je uvědomění, že láska a podpora nás mohou dovést ke štěstí i navzdory okolnostem.

Taking as its starting point the first-ever retrospective exhibition (2021) of performance art icon Jess Dobkin, the book reflects on the internationally acclaimed artistâ ™s playful and provocative practice as performer, activist, curator, and community leader. At the same time, it grapples with a question that is vital for art and performance studies: How do archives perform?More than a discrete showing of a single artistâ ™s work, the exhibition, including its new staging in book form, is a large-scale research experiment in performance curation, investigating what it might mean for art institutions to take seriously the embodied and communal nature of performance art in their practices of archiving and museological display. In Jess Dobkinâ ™s Wetrospective, a cast of renowned international performance theorists and artists dive into this exploration alongside Dobkin, curator Emelie Chhangur, and performance theorist and dramaturg Laura Levin. These contributions appear alongside a riot of full colour photographs, providing access to Dobkinâ ™s celebrated artistic productions from the last 30 years.
