MedicineMarch 2017The metamorphosis of autism
A history of child development in Britain
by Keir Waddington, Bonnie Evans
This book is available as an open access ebook under a CC-BY-NC-ND licence. What is autism and where has it come from? Increased diagnostic rates, the rise of the 'neurodiversity' movement, and growing autism journalism, have recently fuelled autism's fame and controversy. The metamorphosis of autism is the first book to explain our current fascination with autism by linking it to a longer history of childhood development. Drawing from a staggering array of primary sources, Bonnie Evans traces autism back to its origins in the early twentieth century and explains why the idea of autism has always been controversial and why it experienced a 'metamorphosis' in the 1960s and 1970s. Evans takes the reader on a journey of discovery from the ill-managed wards of 'mental deficiency' hospitals, to high-powered debates in the houses of parliament, and beyond. The book will appeal to a wide market of scholars and others interested in autism.

Towards a just Europe
A theory of distributive justice for the European Union
by João Labareda
This highly original book constitutes one of the first attempts to examine the problem of distributive justice in the European Union in a systematic manner. João Labareda argues that the set of shared political institutions at EU level, including the European Parliament and the Court of Justice of the EU, generate democratic duties of redistribution among EU citizens. Furthermore, the economic structure of the EU, comprising a common market, a common currency and a free-movement area, triggers duties of reciprocity among member states. The responsibilities to fulfil these duties, Labareda argues, should be shared by the local, national and supranational levels of government. Not only should the EU act as a safety net to the national welfare systems, applying the principle of subsidiarity, but common market and Eurozone regulations should balance their efficiency targets with fair cooperation terms. The concrete policy proposals presented in this book include a threshold of basic goods for all EU citizens, an EU labour code, a minimum EU corporate tax rate and an EU fund for competitiveness. Labarada argues that his proposals match the political culture of the member states, are economically feasible, can be translated into functioning institutions and policies and are consistent with the limited degree of social solidarity in Europe. This book is a major contribution to the understanding of what a just Europe would look like and what it might take to get us there. This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 10, Reduced inequalities

The ArtsJanuary 2027Out of the box
How queer TV raised a generation
by Emily Garside
A celebration of queer TV's past, present and exciting future. In Out of the box, Emily Garside takes the reader on a tour through the colourful, complicated world of queer television - where representation is never just entertainment. Examining a wide array of programmes, from Queer as Folk and Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Schitt's Creek and Heartstopper, she explores how queer viewers find themselves in the stories TV tells. Part I dives into the genres that have shaped queer visibility on screen, from the closeted tensions of TV drama to the evolving landscape of sitcoms, musicals, sci-fi and period pieces. Whether it's gay aliens, campy dance numbers or the queerness hidden in historical narratives, these chapters reveal how genre both limits and liberates LGBTQ+ storytelling. Part II turns to the stories themselves: queer teens navigating first love, coming-out arcs, the thorny politics of sex on screen and the lasting need for AIDS narratives. The book also tackles the negative sides of queer TV, from queerbaiting to the 'bury your gays' trope, and looks at how fans push back through creativity and fanfiction.
