Bram Bakker Te zot voor woorden
een kritische kijk op de psyche en de psychiatrie
Te gek om los te lopen, het eerste boek van psychiater Bram Bakker, sloeg op meerdere fronten in als een bom. De frisse, kritische blik van de schrijver en de makkelijk te lezen teksten over ingewikkelde problemen van de psyche werden geroemd. In Te zot voor woorden neemt ' de cowboy in de psychiatrie' (de Volkskrant) opnieuw de wereld van de psyche en de psychiatrie op de schop; met kritische, maar ook geestige kanttekeningen bij zaken die de psychiatrische patiënt aangaan en de mensen die daar...

Roy op het Veld De strijd om energie
hoe de groeiende honger naar olie en gas de wereld in een crisis stort
De wereld loopt langzaam maar zeker vast in een sluipende energiecrisis. Door de snelle en aanhoudende economische groei van China en India stijgt de vraag naar energie. Tegelijkertijd ziet het Westen zijn eigen olie- en gasreserves snel teruglopen. Daardoor wordt het steeds afhankelijker van het Midden-Oosten en landen als Rusland en Venezuela. De eens zo dominante oliereuzen als Shell en ExxonMobil verliezen terrein aan staatsenergiemaatschappijen als Saudi Aramco en Gazprom. Zo langzamerhand krijgen...

R. Widemann Money is a mind thing
Money was a mind thing long before certain goods were used as money and coins started circulating. As it happens money isn't a thing, but an idea, an idea of debt. What we generally take for money, are merely symbols of this idea of money. In this book a reader accompanies the author on a tour along various ideas on value man had from the beginning of time. The result is a colourful description of the historical development of ideas on money and values from ancient history to our present time. Reinold...

Patrick Develtere | Huib Huyse | Jan Van Ongevalle International development cooperation today
a radical shift towards a global paradigm
Over the past 60 years high-income countries have invested over 4000 billion euros in development aid. With varying degrees of success, these investments in low-income countries contributed to tackling structural problems such as access to water, health care, and education. Today, however, international development cooperation is no longer restricted to helping by giving. Instead, it is rather about opportunities, mutual interests, risk taking, and an inclusive societal approach. With the arrival...

Henny Bos If criticism hurts
(or a blessing in disguise)
We all get criticized. That's part of life. Parents, partners, friends, haters, strangers, they all have an opinion on what you do, what you don't do, and what you should do. But if the critique hurts and leads to anger or sadness, it means you are a victim of two unexpected enemies: your ego and your inner critic. If you want to be free from the pain of judgment, you need to say goodbye to your ego and welcome your true Self, the authentic and unique person that you are. Henny Bos links personal...
