Discover Red Love, Alexandra Kollontai's groundbreaking novel about love, freedom, and revolution in early Soviet Russia. This powerful work blends political drama with emotional depth and offers one of the most important explorations of relationships in a rapidly changing society. Readers who enjoy feminist literature, Marxist theory, Russian history, and classic revolutionary fiction will find Red Love both inspiring and unforgettable.Set after the Russian Revolution, the novel follows Vasilisa Malygina as she struggles to balance personal desire with the demands of collective responsibility. Kollontai uses Vasya's story to challenge traditional ideas about family, marriage, and intimacy. She argues that a true revolution must reshape not only economic and political life but also the way people love and relate to one another. The result is a bold and modern examination of gender, emotional independence, and social transformation.This Polis and Praxis Red Series edition enhances the original text with valuable reader resources: • A New Introduction that places Red Love in its historical context and explains why Kollontai's ideas on love, labor, and liberation remain relevant today. • A Short Author Bio titled Who Was Alexandra Kollontai? which provides a clear and engaging overview of her life, beliefs, and lasting influence on feminist and socialist thought. • A Curated Further Reading List that highlights the best works to explore next, including Kollontai's own writings, key Marxist texts, and modern scholarship on gender and revolution.Perfect for readers of Emma Goldman, Rosa Luxemburg, Virginia Woolf, and radical political theory, Red Love continues to spark conversations about equality, autonomy, and the human heart in times of upheaval. This edition is ideal for classrooms, book clubs, and anyone searching for classic literature that still speaks powerfully to the challenges of the present.Step into the world of early Soviet Russia and experience a novel that dares to imagine a future where love itself becomes a force for liberation.
Long out of print and impossible to find, The Science of Character was for many years Ludwig Klages' only book translated into English. A tour de force of Nietzschean and vitalist psychology, Klages goes beyond Nietzsche's scattershot aphorisms and attempts to create a system for the understanding of different psychological or characterological types of human beings. The book offers illuminating discussions of Klages' doctrine of Images, and of the opposition between Spirit and Soul, both cornerstones of his biocentric philosophy which he would go on to develop further in later works.
A life-changing message for our lonely age about why we often avoid what makes us happiest—connecting with other people—and how we can build wiser social habits through small and simple acts, from leading behavioral scientist and author of Mindwise.“Dare to Connect explores the power and promise of the human connections that most of us never make—but could make so easily if we just opened our eyes. This is the eye-opener. Insightful, engaging, scientifically grounded and beautifully written, Dare to Connect is one of those rare books that might actually change your life.” —Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling on HappinessThere is a fundamental paradox at the core of human life. We are a highly social species uniquely equipped to connect with other people—and doing so makes us happier and healthier. And yet, we so often choose to be unsocial. We avoid talking to the stranger who sits next to us. We can’t seem to get beyond small talk with an acquaintance. We feel grateful to those we love but are reluctant to express our gratitude. We are constantly presented with opportunities to make a connection—with our fellow commuters, our baristas, our colleagues, our families—yet we don’t take them. Even in a time when loneliness and isolation have reached epidemic proportions, we forfeit these little moments, not realizing how they can add up to a happier, healthier you.In Dare to Connect, renowned University of Chicago psychologist Nicholas Epley breaks down that split-second decision we face countless times a day: do we choose to reach out and connect with someone or hold back and avoid them? The science is resoundingly clear: Our happiness, health, and self-esteem are boosted by social behavior—whether we are introverts or extroverts. Our pessimism about reaching out creates a self-fulfilling prophecy: the less we try, the more likely we are to think we’ll fail. Our social interactions are almost always better than we expect them to be. Social media and texting do not foster strong connections in the way meeting face-to-face or talking on the phone do. While there are many books promising one big fix, lots of small moments of sociality are more likely to improve your life than anything else. Drawing on decades of research, his own life, and stories of people who have transformed their thinking and their social lives, Epley reveals the psychological mechanisms behind our hesitancy to reach out and empowers readers to put science into practice and build wiser social habits.Dare to Connectshows us that changing our thinking about how we approach others can change our lives.

Huey P. Newton was called many things in his time: revolutionary, genius, criminal, even the most surveilled human being in world history. Yet, little is known about him still because of persistent distortions to his name and legacy as co-founder of the Black Panther Party.In this new and much-needed intellectual biography, political theorist Delio Vásquez establishes Newton as a true and original philosopher. Newton's compassion for the suffering of the people of the streets led him to develop innovative theories for how the most oppressed could spearhead revolutionary change against rising technocracy through communal defense of loving communities. The Panthers forged alliances with Black student unions and street gangs, Hollywood elites and poor whites, the gay liberation movement and Third World nations.Newton left behind dozens of unpublished manuscripts analyzing anthropology, politics, feminist thought, education, philosophy, evolutionary biology, and theology - ideas presented here for the first time. Vásquez also puts into proper perspective Newton's late descent into addiction and madness, a direct effect of U.S. government techniques of war that targeted his mind, body, and soul in ways that are still all too relevant. Today, Newton's maxim "I am we," resounds more than ever.
