The international best-selling phenomenon loved by BARACK OBAMA and BILL GATES is now available in a gift edition with the illustrations in color throughout.
"A hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases." --Barack Obama
"One of the most important books I've ever read--an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world." --Bill Gates
"...Explains why progress is so often secret and silent and teaches readers how to see it clearly." --Melinda Gates
Instant New York Times bestseller #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller
FACTFULNESS: the stress-reducing habit of only having opinions for which there are strong supporting facts.
Things aren't as bad as we think. Fact.
When asked simple questions about global trends--why the world's population is increasing; how many young women go to school; how many of us live in poverty--we systematically get the answers wrong. So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers.
In Factfulness, legendary statisticians Hans, Anna, and Ola Rosling offer a radical new explanation of why this happens, and reveal the ten instincts that distort our perspective.
It turns out that the world, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than we might think. But when we let the bad news take on outsize proportions instead of embracing a worldview based on facts, we can lose our ability to focus on the things that threaten us most.
Filled with lively anecdotes and moving stories, Factfulness is an urgent and essential book that will change the way you see the world.
And now, here is this special gift edition: With charts and photographs in color, and a larger format.
"One of the most important books I've ever read--an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world." - Bill Gates
"Hans Rosling tells thestory of 'the secret silent miracle of human progress' as only he can. But Factfulness does much more than that. It also explains why progress is so often secret and silent and teaches readers how to see it clearly." --Melinda Gates Factfulness: The stress-reducing habit of only carrying opinions for which you have strong supporting facts.
When asked simple questions about global trends--what percentage of the world's population live in poverty; why the world's population is increasing; how many girls finish school--we systematically get the answers wrong. So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess teachers, journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers.
In Factfulness, Professor of International Health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two long-time collaborators, Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens. They reveal the ten instincts that distort our perspective--from our tendency to divide the world into two camps (usually some version of us and them) to the way we consume media (where fear rules) to how we perceive progress (believing that most things are getting worse).
Our problem is that we don't know what we don't know, and even our guesses are informed by unconscious and predictable biases.
It turns out that the world, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than we might think. That doesn't mean there aren't real concerns. But when we worry about everything all the time instead of embracing a worldview based on facts, we can lose our ability to focus on the things that threaten us most.
Inspiring and revelatory, filled with lively anecdotes and moving stories, Factfulness is an urgent and essential book that will change the way you see the world and empower you to respond to the crises and opportunities of the future.

"This book is my last battle in my life-long mission to fight devastating ignorance...Previously I armed myself with huge data sets, eye-opening software, an energetic learning style and a Swedish bayonet for sword-swallowing. It wasn't enough. But I hope this book will be." Hans Rosling, February 2017.

Описание: Dear future Pressure Cooker addict, We received our first pressure cooker in November of 2015 and we have been hooked ever since. An electric pressure cooker allows you to cook food under pressure thus reducing the cooking time dramatically. It has been a tool that has completely revolutionized our kitchen. We can make things from scratch in a fraction of the time (so we know what is actually going in to it) and cook big batches in advance so we always have healthy meals at the ready.We really just wanted to create a recipe book that would give people everyday recipes. Recipes that you would actually use, that use everyday ingredients. A book that anyone could pick up, follow along and be confident about cooking food that actually tastes good.We went a step further and included a 7-day challenge and shopping guide so that you can see how versatile this machine is. You can use it for every meal throughout the week. The Pressure Cooker is a tool that you will actually use and is not a gimmick.We wish you the best with your plant-based journey.Hannah & Derek
Автор: Caitlin Howlett Название: Against Sex Education: Pedagogy, Sex Work, and State Violence ISBN: 1350178446 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350178441 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 15840.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com.
Why do we have sex education? For whom does it exist, and who is it against? This book explores these questions, ultimately calling into question the very existence of sex education itself. The analysis is centred on the marginalised lives of sex workers. This focus allows us to see sex education and sex work in a new light and provides insights into the implications of sex education in public schools and teacher education. By considering the relationship between sex education and sex work, Caitlin Howlett reveals the way in which sex education exists as a form of state violence, and continues to maintain close ties to sexism, racism, colonialism, and capitalism. Drawing on Foucauldian genealogy, feminist history, epistemology, post-humanism, and queer of color critique, Howlett calls for an end to sex education as a federally funded project and argues for new pedagogical approaches to educating about sex, gender, and sexuality in schools.
