If you read the 'business pages' of a newspaper or if you listen to the financial news on the television or radio, you will often hear terms such as 'liability', 'balance sheet' or 'earnings'. These terms turn up in non-financial contexts as well: 'he was more of a liability than an asset'. If you invest in shares, have a building society account, or sit on a committee of the property company which owns your apartment block, you will receive financial statements every year. If you are a manager in a company, a hospital or a school, you will see accounting information often. This Very Short Introduction provides a guide to understanding and using accounting information.

Most Anglo-American readers know Bataille as a novelist. The Accursed Share provides an excellent introduction to Bataille the philosopher. Here he uses his unique economic theory as the basis for an incisive inquiry into the very nature of civilization. Unlike conventional economic models based on notions of scarcity, Bataille's theory develops the concept of excess: a civilization, he argues, reveals its order most clearly in the treatment of its surplus energy. The result is a brilliant blend of ethics, aesthetics, and cultural anthropology that challenges both mainstream economics and ethnology.
The three volumes of The Accursed Share address what Georges Bataille sees as the paradox of utility: namely, if being useful means serving a further end, then the ultimate end of utility can only be uselessness. The first volume of The Accursed Share, the only one published before Bataille's death, treated this paradox in economic terms, showing that "it is not necessity but its contrary, luxury, that presents living matter and mankind with their fundamental problems." This Zone edition includes in a single volume a reconstruction, based on the versions published in Bataille's posthumous collected works, of his intended continuation of The Accursed Share.In the second and third volumes, The History of Eroticism and Sovereignty, Bataille explores the same paradox of utility, respectively from an anthropological and an ethical perspective. He first analyzes the fears and fascination, the prohibitions and the transgressions attached to the realm of eroticism as so many expressions of the "uselessness" of erotic life. It is just this expenditure of excess energy that demarcates the realm of human autonomy, of independence relative to.useful" ends.The study of eroticism therefore leads naturally to the examination of human sovereignty, in which Bataille defines the sovereign individual as one who consumes and does not labor, creating a life beyond the realm of utility.Georges Bataille, a philosopher and novelist sui generis, died in 1962.

"Rousseau procéda à la manière des prédicateurs. Il accusa le mal, pour mieux annoncer le remède. C'est "l'indignation de la vertu", assure-t-il, qui marqua le début de sa vocation "philosophique", lorsqu'un concours d'académie souleva la question des conséquences du "rétablissement des sciences et des arts", c'est-à-dire de la Renaissance. Son indignation, son ressentiment ont alors fait naître en lui une éloquence dont il ignorait encore tout le pouvoir. Il a jugé nécessaire de remonter aux premiers temps de l'histoire humaine, et le modèle qu'il en a proposé lui a valu d'être considéré comme l'un des fondateurs de l'anthropologie. Il parvint à loger dans son roman La Nouvelle Héloïse tout à la fois un lieu où vivre et des voyages couvrant la terre entière. Certains de ses lecteurs furent séduits au point de vouloir tout quitter pour vivre à ses côtés, comme s'il avait fondé un ordre religieux. Ce singulier attrait s'exerce encore." Jean Starobinski.

An engaging exploration of what it means to be asexual in a world that s obsessed with sexual attraction, and what the ace perspective can teach all of us about desire and identity.What exactly is sexual attraction and what is it like to go through life not experiencing it? What does asexuality reveal about gender roles, about romance and consent, and the pressures of society? This accessible examination of asexuality shows that the issues that aces face confusion around sexual activity, the intersection of sexuality and identity, navigating different needs in relationships are the same conflicts that nearly all of us will experience. Through a blend of reporting, cultural criticism, and memoir, Ace addresses the misconceptions around the A of LGBTQIA and invites everyone to rethink pleasure and intimacy.Journalist Angela Chen creates her path to understanding her own asexuality with the perspectives of a diverse group of asexual people. Vulnerable and honest, these stories include a woman who had blood tests done because she was convinced that not wanting sex was a sign of serious illness, and a man who grew up in a religious household and did everything right, only to realize after marriage that his experience of sexuality had never been the same as that of others. Disabled aces, aces of color, gender-nonconforming aces, and aces who both do and don t want romantic relationships all share their experiences navigating a society in which a lack of sexual attraction is considered abnormal. Chen s careful cultural analysis explores how societal norms limit understanding of sex and relationships and celebrates the breadth of sexuality and queerness.
