Why Love Hurts Why Love Hurts
by Eva Illouz

"A tour de force, a thrilling read. Unseating the primacy of individual psychology as the reigning explanation for the travails of modern love, and demonstrating the profoundly social nature of our most intimate feelings, Eva Illouz etches a whole new emotional atlas."
Laura Kipnis, author of Against Love: A Polemic


Climate Wars Climate Wars
What People Will Be Killed For in the 21st Century
by Harald Welzer

"Welzer combines analytical insight with passionate conviction in calling on all of us to help stem the violence that flows from climate change."
Martin Albrow, University of Wales

"Rampant climate change will redraw the geopolitical map of the 21st century. This book asks the uncomfortable but important questions that we will face in the future."
Robert Falkner, London School of Economics and Political Science
