PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Arianne Shahvisi is a Kurdish-British writer and academic. She teaches philosophy at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School and has written essays for the London Review of Books, the Guardian, the Independent, and the Economist.
Often entertaining and funny; always concise, exacting, logical, readable, authoritative and un-put-downable. An everyday manual on how oppression came about, how it works, why it persists, and how to defeat it -- Danny Dorling, author of Injustice: Why Social Inequality Still Persists and A Better Politics We live in an age of information overload, and unfortunately, 'information' is often misinformation. We often don't know how to think about social problems, let alone what to think. Arianne Shahvisi's book cuts through the noise with an eminently sensible discussion of key contemporary 'culture war' issues. It shows us how philosophy, far from being irrelevant, is essential for navigating today's world of client journalism-manufactured, social media-manipulated outrage. It also provides much-needed reassurance that in the struggle to create a better world, being able to 'show our workings' is much more important than always being right -- ALISON PHIPPS, author of Me, Not You: The Trouble with Mainstream Feminism
