Steffen Mau wächst in den siebziger Jahren im Rostocker Neubauviertel Lütten Klein auf. Als die Mauer fällt, ist er bei der NVA, nach der Wende studiert er, wird schlie�lich Professor. Währenddessen kämpft seine Heimat mit den Schattenseiten der Wiedervereinigung: Statt blühender Landschaften prägen verrostende Industrieruinen die Szenerie. Mit der neuen Freiheit und dem Massenkonsum kommen Erfahrungen sozialer Deklassierung. 30 Jahre nach 1989 zieht Mau mit dem ebenso scharfen wie empathischen Blick eines Lütten Kleiner Soziologen Bilanz. Er spricht mit Weggezogenen und Dagebliebenen, er schaut zurück auf das Leben in einem Staat, den es nicht mehr gibt. Wie veränderte sich die Sozialstruktur, wie die Mentalitäten? Was sind die Ursachen für Unzufriedenheit und politische Entfremdung in den neuen Ländern? Wie wurde aus der Stadt, in der er gemeinsam mit Kindern aller Schichten seine Jugend verbrachte, ein Ort sozialer Spaltung? Viele der Spannungen, so sein Fazit, die sich in Ostdeutschland beobachten lassen, haben ihren Ursprung in der DDR-Zeit. Doch wurden sie durch die Transformation nicht aufgehoben. Vielmehr verschärften sie sich zu gesellschaftlichen Frakturen, die unser Land bis heute prägen.--Verlagstext.

"Mood Matters" makes the radical assertion that all social events ranging from fashions in music and art to the rise and fall of civilizations are biased by the attitudes a society holds toward the future. When the "social mood" is positive and people look forward to the future, events of an entirely different character tend to occur than when society is pessimistic. The book presents many examples from every walk of life in support of this argument. In addition, methods are given to actually measure the social mood and to project it into the future in order to forecast what's likely or not over varying periods of time. Casti's writing is a pleasure to read and its contents an eye-opener. "They [the chapters] tell an engrossing story, and the mystery heightens as it goes. . . . it's chatty and knowing." Greg Benford, Physicist and science-fiction writer, author of "Timescape" and "Deep Time" "I am struck by how thought-provoking it all is. I am sure that your book will draw a lot of attention" Tor Norretranders, Science writer, author of "The Generous Man" and "The User Illusion".

In Bring No Clothes, acclaimed fashion writer Charlie Porter brings us face to face with six members of the Bloomsbury Group, the collective of artists and thinkers who were in the vanguard of a social and sartorial revolution. Each of them offers fresh insight into the constraints and possibilities of fashion today: from the stifling repression of E. M. Forster's top buttons to the creativity of Vanessa Bell's wayward hems; from the sheer pleasure of Ottoline Morrell's lavish dresses to the clashing self-consciousness of Virginia Woolf's orange stockings. As Porter carefully unpicks what they wore and how they wore it, we see how clothing can be a means of artistic, intellectual and sexual liberation, or, conversely, a tool for patriarchal control. Travelling through libraries, archives, attics and studios, Porter uncovers fresh evidence about his subjects, revealing them in a thrillingly intimate, vivid new light. And, as he is inspired to begin making his own clothing, his perspective on fashion - and on life - starts to change. In the end, he shows, we should all 'bring no clothes,' embracing a new philosophy of living: one which activates the connections between the way we dress and the way we think, act and love --
