Everyone knows that left-handers are more creative (Leonardo da Vinci), smarter (Ben Franklin), funnier (Carol Burnett), tougher (Billy the Kid), more musical (C.P.E. Bach), more athletic (Martina Navratilova), more adventurous (Buzz Aldrin), more tuned-in (Joan of Arc), handsomer (Cary Grant), more ambitious (Alexander the Great), braver (Lord Nelson), more successful (Bob Dylan), and haughtier (Queen Victoria) than northpaws. The World's Greatest left-Handers is the book that proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Under mitten och senare delen av 1800-talet bildades på Gotland många kyrkliga syföreningar för att bistå organisationer, behövande och sockenkyrkor. Då församlingen inte hade råd att införskaffa inventarier till kyrkan kunde syföreningen bidra. Boken beskriver hur gamla och unga, mest kvinnor, arbetade tillsammans och lyckades skapa så mycket värdefullt. Boken presenterar också många av de kyrkliga föremål som skänkts av syföreningarna till kyrkorna. Två stora utställningar – 1980 och 1993 – uppvisade bredden på syföreningarnas alster.

'Maybe it's in the air. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe it's the pace of life. Maybe it's breathing in that black soot everyday on the tube. Maybe it's commuting. Maybe it's the cultural consciousness. Maybe it's being a millennial. Maybe it's the climate crisis. Maybe it's the patriarchy.'When 'intimidating' Rachel and eternal 'nice guy' Nick meet at an awkward work Christmas party, what was meant to be a one-night-stand becomes a sexual odyssey of self-discovery… and mutual destruction.Adrift, isolated and insecure, they scramble for new ways to connect. Can some playful, passionate pegging provide a pathway through the pitfalls of modern relationships and present the possibility of a deeper bond?A penetrating comedy about the search for sexual knowledge, true love and top-notch Tupperware, Lisa Carroll's play The Misandrist was first produced by Metal Rabbit Productions at the Arcola Theatre, London, in May 2023.

Left-handedness has been connected to many different conditions, traits, and abilities. This is especially true for pathological syndromes, such as schizophrenia, along with learning disabilities and autism. The published research on handedness is vast and frequently contradictory, often raising more questions than providing answers. Questions such as:

Is handedness genetic? Can handedness be changed? Are there consequences to training someone to switch handedness? Are there positive traits associated with left-handedness like creativity? Are there negative traits associated with left-handedness like trouble reading maps? Is it abnormal to do some things right-handed and other things left-handed? Are the brains of left-handers different from the brains of right-handers?

Laterality: Exploring the Enigma of Left-Handedness examines the research conducted over the past 50 years with special emphasis on twenty-first century research on handedness and translates this literature into an accessible and readable form. Each chapter is based on a question or questions covering diverse topics such as genetic and biological origins of handedness, familial and hormonal influences on handedness, and the effects of a majority right-handed world on the behaviors of left-handers.

Summarizes scientific research on laterality Separates fact from fiction in common beliefs about laterality Includes illustrative interviews with left-handers
