Paperback. New York Times bestselling author Charles Graeber tells the astonishing story of the group of scientists working on a code that can enable the human immune system to fight and perhaps even cure cancer.For decades, scientists have puzzled over one of medicines greatest mysteries: why doesnt our immune system fight cancer the way it does other diseases? The answer is a series of tricks that cancer has developed to turn off normal immune responses tricks that scientists have only recently discovered, and now are learning to defeat. We are in the midst of a revolution in our understanding of cancer and how to beat it. Groundbreaking, riveting, and expertly told, The Breakthrough is the story of the game-changing and Nobel Prize-winning scientific discoveries that unleash our natural ability to recognise and defeat cancer, as told through the experiences of the patients, physicians, and immunotherapy researchers who are on the front lines. This is the incredible true story of the race to find a cure, and the definitive account of a historic moment in medical science.

Now in paperback, the updated and expanded edition : David Graeber’s “fresh . . . fascinating . . . thought-provoking . . . and exceedingly timely” (Financial Times) history of debt   Here anthropologist David Graeber presents a stunning reversal of conventional wisdom: he shows that before there was money, there was debt. For more than 5,000 years, since the beginnings of the first agrarian empires, humans have used elaborate credit systems to buy and sell goods—that is, long before the invention of coins or cash. It is in this era, Graeber argues, that we also first encounter a society divided into debtors and creditors.Graeber shows that arguments about debt and debt forgiveness have been at the center of political debates from Italy to China, as well as sparking innumerable insurrections. He also brilliantly demonstrates that the language of the ancient works of law and religion (words like “guilt,” “sin,” and “redemption”) derive in large part from ancient debates about debt, and shape even our most basic ideas of right and wrong. We are still fighting these battles today without knowing it.

It’s the Political Economy, Stupid brings together internationally acclaimed artists and thinkers, including Slavoj Žižek, David Graeber, Judith Butler and Brian Holmes, to focus on the current economic crisis in a sustained and critical manner.In sympathy with the subject matter, the book features powerful original artwork for the cover, and an internal design theme based on the movements of Goldman Sachs stock market values by activist designer Noel Douglas. What emerges is a powerful critique of the current capitalist crisis through an analytical and theoretical response and an aesthetic-cultural rejoinder. By combining artistic responses with the analysis of leading radical theorists, the book expands the boundaries of critique beyond the usual discourse.It’s the Political Economy, Stupid argues that it is time to push back against the dictates of the capitalist logic and, by use of both theoretical and artistic means, launch a rescue of the very notion of the social.

Bullshit Jobs: A Theory Hardcover May 15, 2018by David Graeber (author)

From bestselling writer David Graeber, a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs, and their consequences.Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled “On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs.” It went viral. After a million online views in seventeen different languages, people all over the world are still debating the answer. There are millions of people—HR consultants, communication coordinators, telemarketing researchers, corporate lawyers—whose jobs are useless, and, tragically, they know it. These people are caught in bullshit jobs. Graeber explores one of society’s most vexing and deeply felt concerns, indicting among other villains a particular strain of finance capitalism that betrays ideals shared by thinkers ranging from Keynes to Lincoln. Bullshit Jobs gives individuals, corporations, and societies permission to undergo a shift in values, placing creative and caring work at the center of our culture. This book is for everyone who wants to turn their vocation back into an avocation.

All Things in Common gets behind the "communism of the apostles" passages in Acts 2:42-47 and 4:32-37, using the anthropological categories of ""social relationship"" espoused by David Graeber and other anthropologists. Looking at sources ranging from the Qumran scrolls to the North African apologist Tertullian to the Roman satirist Lucian, All Things in Common reconstructs the economic practices of the early Christians and argues that what is described in Acts 2:42-47 and 4:32-37 is a long-term, widespread set of practices that were taken seriously by the early Christians, and that differentiated them significantly from the wider world. This book takes into account Judean and Hellenistic parallels to the early Christian community of goods, as well as the socioeconomic context from which it came, and traces its origins back to the very teachings and declarations of Jesus. This book will be of interest to anyone interested in Christian history, and especially the socioeconomic aspects of early Christianity, as well as anyone interested in Christian ethics and New Testament studies. It would also be of interest to anyone interested in possible alternatives to the ideology of capitalism.

Der Dürrnberg bei Hallein. Mit einem Beitrag von Mona Abd El Karem. Das vierte Gräberfeld nach Kammelhöhe, Sonneben [DF 5] und Moserfeld-Osthang [DF 6] liegt unterhalb der Hexenwand am Nordhang des Mosersteines. In den 1930er Jahren wurden von O. Klose die bescheidenen Gräber 15, 103, 104 und 105 sowie das große Wagengrab 112 mit der berühmten bronzenen Schnabelkanne untersucht. Später kam Grab 50 hinzu und fanden Nachgrabungen in bekannten Gräbern statt. 1990-94 erfasste K. W. Zeller im westlichen Teil des Hexenwandfeldes 22 neue Gräber und Siedlungsbefunde. Damit liegen 29 Gräber mit bis zu 8 Toten je Grab und mindestens 72 Bestattungen insgesamt vor, die sich im Zentrum der Mittelterrasse konzentrieren und von Ha D1 bis Lt B2 reichen. Baulich handelt es sich um hölzerne, meist von Steinsetzungen eingefaßte Grabkammern in bis zu drei Ebenen übereinander und unter kleinen Grabhügeln. Bis auf eine altgegrabene Brandbestattung in Grab 50 kommen nur Körpergräber vor, meist in O-W-Ausrichtung. Nachgewiesen sind 22 Frauen, 6 Mädchen, 25 Männer und 2 Jungen. Häufig waren Trachtbestandteile, Speisebeigaben und Trankbeigaben, ein Drittel der Männer hatte Waffen. Die meisten Gräber waren antik beraubt. 260 Seiten mit 145 Textabb., 16 Tab. und 53 Farb- und s/w-Tafeln sowie 7 Falttafeln als Beilagen in Rückentasche, Großformat, gebunden (Dürrnberg-Forschungen; Band 7.

In anthropology as much as in popular imagination, kings are figures of fascination and intrigue, heroes or tyrants in ways presidents and prime ministers can never be. This collection of essays by two of the world’s most distinguished anthropologists—David Graeber and Marshall Sahlins—explores what kingship actually is, historically and anthropologically. As they show, kings are symbols for more than just sovereignty: indeed, the study of kingship offers a unique window into fundamental dilemmas concerning the very nature of power, meaning, and the human condition. Reflecting on issues such as temporality, alterity, and utopia—not to mention the divine, the strange, the numinous, and the bestial—Graeber and Sahlins explore the role of kings as they have existed around the world, from the BaKongo to the Aztec to the Shilluk and beyond. Richly delivered with the wit and sharp analysis characteristic of Graeber and Sahlins, this book opens up new avenues for the anthropological study of this fascinating and ubiquitous political figure.

Pläne und Tafeln [= Teil 4]: Architektur, Darstellungen, Texte, archäologischer Befund und Funde der Gräber QH 24-QH 209. In den Jahren 1959-1984 hat Edel in über 20 Feldkampagnen einen Großteil der Felsgräbernekropole der Qubbet el-Hawa (Aswan) an der Grenze von Oberägypten zu Nubien freigelegt und dokumentiert. Es handelt sich dabei um die Begräbnisstätten der lokalen Elite aus dem Ende des Alten Reiches (ca. 2300 v. Chr.). Deren Hauptaufgabe bestand in der Ausführung und Kontrolle des Afrikahandels mittels mehrmonatiger Expeditionszüge in das umgebende Ausland (Sudan, Rotmeerküsten, aber auch Levante). Dementsprechend manifestieren sich in der Architektur, der Dekorationen (Bild und Text) sowie in den Beigaben der Grabanlagen nicht nur lokale Begräbnissitten, sondern auch die Aneignung des kulturspezifischen Welt- und Jenseitsbildes in selten reicher und gut erhaltener Form. Dazu wird in dieser Quellenpublikation das Material zum größten Teil als kommentierte editio princeps vorgelegt. Einer ausführlichen Einleitung folgt der umfassende Katalog der Gräber. In separatem Schuber beigegeben sind 38 Architekturpläne in 55 Teilplänen sowie 88 Tafeln, die die Texte und dargestellten Szenen der Monumente in hoher Qualität abbilden. - Drei Bände, zus.
