Es beginnt mit einem gewaltigen Knall: Der Ausbruch des Vulkans Krakatau 1883 ist wie ein Sinnbild für die ungeheure Kraft der utopischen Energien, die das 20. Jahrhundert prägen werden. Nietzsches Übermensch und Wittgensteins Revolution der Sprache, die bahnbrechende Kunst von Käthe Kollwitz, Freuds Eroberung des Unbewussten und Fukuyamas Traum vom Ende der Geschichte – all dies erweckt Peter Neumann in Geschichten und Porträts meisterhaft zum Leben. Er nimmt uns mit auf eine fesselnde Zeitreise ins Land der Utopien, die mit ihrer disruptiven Energie bis heute faszinieren und Visionen für unsere Gegenwart bieten.

Lindsey Fitzharris' Buch "Der Horror der frühen Medizin" war ein internationaler Erfolg, wurde in 15 Sprachen übersetzt und stand 19 Wochen lang auf der SPIEGEL-Bestsellerliste. Mit ihrem neuen Hörbuch entführt uns die Autorin zu den grausigen Anfänge der Schönheitschirurgie: Als Harold Gillies die Verheerungen des Ersten Weltkriegs mit eigenen Augen sieht, ist er schockiert. Zu viele junge Männer werden nach nur einem falschen Augenblick ihrem Schicksal überlassen: für immer entstellt, für immer Monster in den Augen der Gesellschaft.

Frauen haben schon immer die Welt verändert: Sie haben geforscht, Weltliteratur geschrieben und neue Epochen in der Kunst eingeläutet. Doch die Namen dieser Frauen sucht man vergeblich in unseren Geschichtsbüchern. In Wahrheit hat nicht Walt Disney den Zeichentrickfilm erfunden, sondern eine Frau. Es waren auch Frauen, die die DNA, den ersten Algorithmus und die Kernspaltung beschrieben haben. Dank Vera Weidenbach erfahren wir nun endlich mehr über diese für die Weltgeschichte so wichtigen Frauen – wie Lilly Reich, Clara Immerwahr, Lucia Moholy, Nellie Bly und Margarete Steffin.

Depuis des siècles, nous nous racontons sur les origines des sociétés humaines et des inégalités sociales une histoire très simple. Pendant l'essentiel de leur existence sur terre, les êtres humains auraient vécu au sein de petits clans de chasseurs-cueilleurs. Puis l'agriculture aurait fait son entrée, et avec elle la propriété privée. Enfin seraient nées les villes, marquant l'apparition non seulement de la civilisation, mais aussi des guerres, de la bureaucratie, du patriarcat et de l'esclavage.

Bücher über Atlantis füllen ganze Bibliotheken. Schätzungen gehen von 20 000 Werken aus, die bislang über die Insel verfasst worden sind. Die Karte der Lokalisierungen umspannt nahezu den gesamten Globus von Helgoland über Bolivien bis nach Indonesien und Japan. Als besondere Favoriten der Atlantissucher haben sich die Inseln Santorin und Malta durch ihre geologische Biografie sowie die einzigartigen archäologischen Funde qualifiziert. Platon wäre überrascht, wenn er wüsste, welche Wellen seine Erzählung über die Jahrtausende geschlagen hat.

Por primera vez en milenios vivimos en un mundo sin imperios formales. Pero esto no significa que no sintamos su presencia reverberando a través de la historia. El legado de los imperios examina cómo esa herencia sigue latiendo tras los problemas más espinosos que hoy enfrentamos. Desde las injerencias rusas en Ucrania hasta el Brexit, desde el América primero de Trump a las incursiones de China en África, desde la India de Modi hasta el avispero de Oriente Próximo, Samir Puri proporciona un marco nuevo y audaz para descifrar las complejas rivalidades.

The Persian Empire was the world's first hyperpower, with territory stretching from Central Asia to Northeastern Africa and from Southeastern Europe to the Indus Valley. It was the dominant geopolitical force from the later sixth century to its conquest by Alexander in the 330s BCE. Much of the empire's territory was conquered by its founder, Cyrus the Great, who reigned from 559-530 BCE.

In this informative and entertaining mix of narrative history and Simmons' unique philosophy, the Kiss frontman delves deep into the legacy of the oldest profession in the world. From the very first cavewoman to the brothel-women of Rome; from the geishas of Japan to the courtesans of Europe's Renaissance; and from the saloon ladies of the Wild West to today's high-end call girls, Gene covers it all.

Spain's position on Europe's southwestern corner has exposed it to cultural, political and actual winds blowing from all quadrants. Africa lies a mere nine miles to the south. The Mediterranean connects it to the civilisational currents of Phoenicians, Romans, Carthaginians and Byzantines as well as the Arabic lands of the Near East. Hordes from the Russian steppes were amongst the first to arrive. They would be followed by Visigoths, Arabs, Napoleonic armies and many more invaders and immigrants.

The rise of human civilization and all of recorded history occurred in this warm period, known as the Holocene. Until very recently, we had no detailed record of climate changes during the Holocene. Now we do. In this engrossing and captivating look at the human effects of climate variability, Brian Fagan shows how climate functioned as what the historian Paul Kennedy described as one of the “deeper transformations” of history—a more important historical factor than we understand.

The Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome tells the stories of the people who built their political and literary careers around promises of Roman renewal as well as those of the victims they blamed for causing Rome's decline. The story begins during the Roman Republic just after 200 BC. It proceeds through the empire of Augustus and his successors, traces the Roman loss of much of western Europe in the fifth century AD, and follows Roman history until its fall in 1453.
