E. P. Sanders

    18 aprile 1937 – 21 novembre 2022

    Ed Sanders è un poeta e musicista americano, spesso descritto come un ponte tra le generazioni Beat e Hippie. Il suo lavoro esplora frequentemente temi di giustizia sociale e attivismo ambientale, caratterizzato da una cruda onestà e uno stile d'avanguardia. Possiede un approccio distintivo e non convenzionale che sfuma i confini tra poesia, musica e giornalismo. La scrittura di Sanders riflette il suo spirito attivista e la sua visione, affrontando senza paura temi provocatori e gli aspetti più oscuri della società.

    • Do you still need your psychiatric diagnosis? This book will help you decide. A revolution is underway in mental health, as even the authors of diagnostic manuals acknowledge that psychiatric diagnoses lack solid evidence. Consequently, individuals should not be compelled to accept these labels. With many mental health professionals questioning the validity of diagnoses and advocating for a better system, service users and caregivers deserve the same opportunity. This book emphasizes choice, providing essential information for individuals to make informed decisions and explore alternatives if they wish. Rigorously researched and powerfully argued, the book empowers readers with knowledge and resources often absent in statutory care, enabling informed choices. Eleanor Longden from the Psychosis Research Group at the University of Liverpool highlights its value. Lucy Johnstone emphasizes that understanding personal experiences fosters hope and recovery, as she deconstructs psychiatric diagnosis and incorporates personal stories as evidence. Dirk Corstens, a psychiatrist and Chair of Intervoice, praises the book’s message. Gail A. Hornstein, a psychology professor at Mount Holyoke College, describes it as a balanced and clear introduction to the realities of psychiatric diagnosis and the viable alternatives available for those in distress.

    • In August of 1969, during two bloody evenings of paranoid, psychedelic savagery, Charles Manson and his dystopic communal family helped to wreck the dreams of the Love Generation. At least nine people were murdered, among them Sharon Tate, the young, beautiful, pregnant, actress and wife of Roman Polanski. Ed Sanders' unnerving and detailed look at the horror dealt by Manson and his followers is a classic of the true-crime genre. The Family was originally published in 1971 and remains the most meticulously researched account of the most notorious murders of the 1960s. Using firsthand accounts from some of the family's infamous members, including the wizard himself, Sanders examines not only the origins and legacy of Manson and his family, but also the mysteries that persist. Completely revised and updated, this edition features 25 harrowing black and white photos from the investigation. "One of the best-researched, best-written, thoroughly-constructed, and eminently significant books of our times…. A masterpiece."—Boston Phoenix
