Modern Relationships

Recognizing the power of the new and trying to understand and promote the conditions that make it possible, the Greeks were the first to write about innovation and even the first to record a word for forging something new. In short, the Greeks "invented" innovation itself - and they still have a great deal to teach us about it. How to Innovate is an engaging introduction to key ideas about - and examples of - innovation and creative thinking from ancient Greece. Armand D'Angour provides lively new translations of selections from Aristotle, Diodorus, and Athenaeus.

Dass unter diesem Druck das Wohlbefinden von Müttern leidet, ist kein Wunder. Mareice Kaiser schreibt poetisch und politisch, faktenreich und persönlich, modern und mutig über Mutterschaft und zeigt, wo Mütter heute stehen: noch immer öfter am Herd als in Entscheidungspositionen. Und, wo sie stehen sollten: dort, wo sie selbst sich sehen, frei und selbstbestimmt.
