Japans geografi
Japan är ett land som, trots sin ofördelaktiga placering och de minst sagt ogynnsamma naturförhållandena, har en stark ekonomi och en hög materiell standard. En del av förklaringen till det japanska undret ligger utan tvekan i den ömsesidiga anpassningen av människan till miljön och miljön till människan. Bokens fyra delar tar upp: (1) Naturförhållanden såsom klimat, jord och vegetation, (2) människans anpassning till miljön (3) de många sätten att tämja naturen och (4) de olika regionernas ojämna utveckling. Japans Geografi är en bok för den som är intresserad av Japan i allmänhet eller geografi i synnerhet, då den visar hur japanerna på ett framgångsrikt sätt lyckats hitta lösningar på både specifika och universella problem.

Jacques Lacan
Jacques Lacan: The Basics provides a clear and succinct introduction to the work of Jacques Lacan, one of the key thinkers of the twentieth century. Lacan’s ideas are applied in the study of the humanities, politics, and psychology as well as contemporary media and the arts, but their complexity makes them impenetrable to many. This book is unique in explaining the key concepts and context, from Lacan’s understanding of psychoanalysis to drive and desire, in an accessible way without diluting them beyond meaning. Examples from popular culture are used throughout to emphasise the ideas being discussed and a full glossary and list of resources for further reading encourages additional exploration. This engaging and accessible text is essential reading for all those interested in Lacan and his work, as well as students of psychology, psychoanalysis, literature, politics, cultural studies, film studies, and more.
