The Andromeda Evolution (9780008389581)



Fifty years after The Andromeda Strain made Michael Crichton a household name - and spawned a new genre, the technothriller - the threat returns, in a gripping sequel that is terrifyingly realistic and resonant.

THE EVOLUTION IS COMING
In 1967, an extraterrestrial microbe-designated the Andromeda Strain-came crashing down to Earth and nearly ended the human race. A team of top scientists assigned to Project Wildfire worked valiantly to save the world from an epidemic of unimaginable proportions. In the ensuing decades, research on the microparticle continued. And the world thought it was safe....

Deep inside Fairchild Air Force Base, Project Eternal Vigilance has continued to watch and wait for the Andromeda Strain to reappear. For years, the project has registered no activity-until now. A Brazilian terrain-mapping drone has detected a bizarre anomaly of otherworldly matter, and, worse yet, the tell-tale chemical signature of the deadly microparticle.

With this shocking discovery, the next-generation Project Wildfire is activated, and a diverse team of experts hailing from all over the world is dispatched to investigate the potentially apocalyptic threat.

But the microbe is growing-evolving. And if the Wildfire team can't reach the quarantine zone, enter the anomaly, and figure out how to stop it, this new Andromeda Evolution will annihilate all life as we know it.

'A meticulously crafted adventure story, packed with action, mystery, wonder, and just enough hard science to scare the hell out of you. So good!' Ernest Cline, author of Ready Player One

Aufstand aus der Küche : Reproduktionsarbeit im globalen Kapitalismus und die unvollendete feministische Revolution (9783942885324)

In dem Band formuliert die feministisch-marxistische Theoretikerin und Aktivistin Silvia Federici eine aktuelle Kritik der Reproduktionsarbeit im globalen Kapitalismus und plädiert für eine feministische Politik der Commons. Neben zwei neuen Beiträgen wird auch die bereits 1974 verfasste Kritik Counter-Planning from the Kitchen erstmals in deutscher Sprache veröffentlicht. Federici erinnert an die unerledigte Revolution des Feminismus und plädiert für deren Aktualisierung in der Gegenwart. Queer-Feminismus und Ökonomiekritik schließen einander nicht aus (wie in letzter Zeit immer wieder behauptet), sondern müssen verbunden werden. Das Buch, das unsere Reihe eröffnen wird, ist gleichzeitig eine Intervention in einen queeren wie feministischen Diskurs, der sich um eine Kritik des Kapitalismus zu wenig bemüht und andererseits eine Intervention in den ökonomiekritischen, marxistischen Diskurs, der leider immer noch sehr androzentrisch (männerdominiert) funktioniert und Geschlechterverhält
