Описание:

"No one can understand how feminism has evolved without reading this radical, inflammatory second-wave landmark." -Naomi Wolf

Originally published in 1970, when Shulamith Firestone was just twenty-five years old, and going on to become a bestseller, The Dialectic of Sex was the first book of the women's liberation movement to put forth a feminist theory of politics.

Beginning with a look at the radical and grassroots history of the first wave (with its foundation in the abolition movement of the time), Firestone documents its major victory, the granting of the vote to women in 1920, and the fifty years of ridicule that followed. She goes on to deftly synthesize the work of Freud, Marx, de Beauvoir, and Engels to create a cogent argument for feminist revolution. Identifying women as a caste, she declares that they must seize the means of reproduction-for as long as women (and only women) are required to bear and rear children, they will be singled out as inferior.

Ultimately she presents feminism as the key radical ideology, the missing link between Marx and Freud, uniting their visions of the political and the personal.

In the wake of recent headlines bemoaning women's squandered fertility and the ongoing debate over the appropriate role of genetics in the future of humanity, The Dialectic of Sex is revealed as remarkably relevant to today's society-a testament to Shulamith Firestone's startlingly prescient vision. Firestone died in 2012, but her ideas live on through this extraordinary book.

Описание:

For the believing Jew today, no less than for those in the past, the study of the weekly Torah portion is a religious experience. For this reason it is customary to consider the section along with its traditional commentaries. It is important to know not only what the Torah meant when it was written, but also what it has meant within Judaism since then. It is also important for intellectual honesty to distinguish between the two. Moderns also have the advantage of using the results of linguistic studies and comparative studies of other ancient texts as well as archaeological finds to help us better understand the text. The Torah reflects an entire worldview concerning the nature of God and of human beings, the task of Israel and the way in which we are to live. Thus it is an ancient text that is ever new and always renewing itself. One studies it not only to learn what was, but also to discover what we are and how we are to live. These prefaces are meant to complement and enrich your study of the portion by pointing out important ideas found therein and raising problems and questions for consideration. Enter into the Torah text with this insightful companion and experience the full impact of the age-old and totally new weekly portion

Описание: From the daughter-father duo that created Brooklyn's beloved live pun competition, this "punderful card game" (Mashable) is perfect for friends and families.

- One part game, one part conversation starter, you don't need to be a pun master to master Punderdome: the goal is to make bad jokes and have fun along the way.

- The prompter for the round draws two prompt cards from the deck, then reads the prompts to the rest of the group. The other players have 90 seconds to combine the two prompts into a single, groan-worthy pun.

- When time is up, pun makers share their puns with the prompter, who awards the prompt cards to the player with the best pun. The winner then draws the next pair of prompt cards and the process repeats.

- The first player to obtain 10 pairs of prompt cards wins the game.

- Easy to play and enjoy in person or over video chat!

Punderdome includes:
- 200 double-sided cards (100 White and 100 Green)
- 2 Mystery Envelopes with fill-in prize slips
- 2 80-page pads for drafting puns
- 1 instruction card and 1 pun example card
- A stu-PUN-dous time for 3 or more players
