The Gehlen Organization and the Nazis (Routledge Studies in Fascism and the Far Right)
by Badis Ben RedjebThis book uncovers the extent to which the Gehlen Organization, the intelligence organization created by the United States at the end of World War Two, recruited and used controversial individuals who had been heavily involved in the atrocities committed by the Nazis. Through an extensive study of records and primary sources, including the archives of the German armed forces during the Nazi era and the declassified files of the U.S. Army, as well as of several intelligence organizations such as the Central Intelligence Agency and the Intelligence Service of the Federal Republic of Germany, the book investigates the war record of individuals who were recruited by the Gehlen Organization. This investigative work proves that several General Staff officers hired had a dark past and that the organization ultimately served as a safe haven for many Nazis. The book provides a new and original perspective on essential events that took place at the end of World War Two, thereby contributing to a new interpretation of history. While all readers interested in historical accuracy will find this book of interest, The Gehlen Organization and the Nazis is crucial reading for students researching Nazi Germany, the early Cold War, intelligence studies, and postwar German history.

Evolution, Feminism, and Romantic Fiction: From Mr. Darcy to Mr. Big.
by Ania GrantRomantic fiction has long been dismissed as trivial and denounced for peddling supposedly oppressive patriarchal myths of heterosexual love and marriage. Despite such criticism, the popularity of romantic fiction has only increased in recent decades.Drawing on research from the evolutionary sciences, Ania Grant proposes that narrative patterns of romantic stories and their enduring appeal reflect the importance of love as a fundamental human drive. She examines two of the most successful and critically scrutinized romantic narratives of the past 200 years, Jane Austen’s classic novel Pride and Prejudice and the hit television series Sex and the City, and argues that such texts simulate the cognitive and emotional complexities of mate choice—one of the most consequential decisions from both a biological and a cultural perspective. Her biocultural analysis aligns the interpretation of romantic fiction with the feminist ideals of female autonomy and gender equality. It also suggests that positive identification with romantic heroines gives audiences the hope and energy to pursue the transformation of gender relations in real life.The book will be of interest to anyone who ever wondered why so many women (and some men) around the world are enthralled by romantic stories. It will also appeal to anyone who has ever been inspired by romantic happy endings to strive for a world in which men and women love and cooperate with each other—even if it seems like a utopian ideal while the war of the sexes rages on.

You'll Like It When You Get There: A Life Lived Reluctantly
by Rhys JamesA refreshingly honest look at modern life, and how to get out of living it.Rhys has lived his entire life with a backdrop of dread.

From the Wild West of early internet chatrooms to the sticky circus of the Kavos strip, from redesigning therapy after completing it in just four sessions, to having a full existential breakdown when a Buddhist monk asks him for 5 stars on TripAdvisor.If you've ever celebrated plans being cancelled with an Andy Murray fist pump, secretly prayed for another lockdown, attempted to start your own nickname, or tried - in vain - to control the outcome of everything you do, then welcome to the club. We close early, obviously.You'll Like It When You Get There is at once hilarious, insightful and inspiring - even if what it's inspiring you to do is absolutely nothing.
