Participatory Culture, Community, and Play : Learning from Reddit
What does online community look like in the age of social networking?How do participatory culture platforms reflect both their designers’ intentions and the desires of their users?In this incisive and timely work, Adrienne L. Massanari discusses how culture is created and challenged on Reddit.com, the self-proclaimed «front page of the internet».Reddit enables the sharing of original and reposted content from around the web, and provides a platform for like-minded individuals to commune around topics of interest – everything from the joys of drinking beer in a shower (/r/showerbeer) to celebrating the pleasures of tidy penmanship (/r/penmanshipporn).Massanari’s ethnographic work provides a detailed examination of the contradictions that shape Reddit’s culture and how they reflect its role as an epicenter of geek culture.The book explores the ways in which community on Reddit is formed and solidified through play and humor, and the complex ways in which Redditors come together, which demonstrate a deep capacity for altruism and charitable giving, but can easily lapse into mob action.It also explores the community’s troubling gender and racial politics and how some Redditors are carving out their own space on the site to fight back.

Learning to Love
An insightful guide for consciously bringing compassion and love into your life Every person is born with the capacity to love.Over time, however, many of us have built barriers within ourselves as a reaction to painful experiences, and following these, we often develop fears, beliefs, and behaviors that keep these barriers firmly in place. The primary lesson in life is to learn to love, and this starts right on our doorstep.Often it is self-doubt and feelings of unworthiness that hold us back from experiencing all the love around us.Only when we start to love and accept ourselves with all that we are can we love others freely and fully.Learning to love requires an intention to change and a willingness to take action.Once we understand how to work with our doubts and fears and learn how to change our beliefs and behavior, our barriers will melt away and we spontaneously open up to connect deeply and harmoniously with the full flow of the river of life. In this simple yet insightful guide, Eileen Caddy and David Earl Platts detail the down-to-earth practicalities of exploring feelings, attitudes, beliefs, and past experiences that block us from loving and from receiving love.The teachings in the book are based on popular workshops that Eileen, co-founder of the Findhorn Foundation Community, and David facilitated for years in and outside Findhorn.Many of the underlying principles and techniques originate in the system of psychosynthesis, devised by Roberto Assagioli.Learning to Love invites you to make a free and informed choice to bring more love into your life, and then helps you implement this choice step-by-step with confidence and joy.

Learning to Fly, Learning to Love
There is little doubt that back in the 1950's being a fighter pilot was seen as being amongst the most glamorous occupations.These 'knights of the sky' were on a par with modern day pop idols or film stars.To some extent this kudos continues even to this day.However, it was then also one of the most dangerous occupations with many RAF aircrew killed each year due simply to accidents and mechanical equipment failures.No punches are pulled in this book, with much of the text containing detailed and explicit descriptions of flying, some intense sexual activity and the psychological confusion which can arise from falling in love.The story is based on the actual experiences of a real person who lived through these events.

Learning What Love Means
A memoir of a friendship with Michel Foucault that changed the author's life. "I loved Michel as Michel, not as a father. Never did I feel the slightest jealousy or the slightest embitterment or exasperation when it came to him. ... I was intensely close to Michel for a full six years, until his death, and I lived in his apartment for close to a year.Today I see that time as the period that changed my life, my cut-off from a fate leading to the precipice.In no specific way I'm grateful to Michel, without knowing for exactly what, for a better life."-from Learning What Love MeansIn 1978, Mathieu Lindon met Michel Foucault.Lindon was twenty-three years old, part of a small group of jaded but innocent, brilliant, and sexually ambivalent friends who came to know Foucault.At first the nominal caretakers of Foucault's apartment on rue de Vaugirard when he was away, these young friends eventually shared their time, drugs, ambitions, and writings with the older Foucault.Lindon's friend, the late Herve Guibert, was a key figure within this group.The son of the renowned founder of Editions de Minuit, Lindon grew up with Marguerite Duras, Alain Robbe-Grillet, and Samuel Beckett as family friends.Much was expected of him. But, as he writes in this remarkable spiritual autobiography, it was through his friendship with Foucault-who was neither lover nor father but an older friend-that he found the direction that would influence the rest of his life. As Bruce Benderson writes in his introduction, "The book is a collage of free-associated episodes and interpretatons that together compose for the reader a kind of manual about how to love. ... As he runs from apartment to apartment, job to job, or lover to lover, the book becomes a story of conversion testifying to an author's radical change of viewpoint, which leads to his invitation into the social world through lessons about love." A brilliant meditation on friendship, Learning What Loves Means provides an insight into a part of Foucault's life and work that until now, remained unkown.The book won the prestigious Prix Medicis in 2011 when it was published in French.
