Наличие на складе: Есть (1 шт.) Описание: Millions of years ago, humans just happened. Accidents of environment and genetics contributed to the emergence of sentient beings like us. Today, however, people no longer "just happen"; they are created by the voluntary acts of other people. This book examines several questions about the ethics of human existence. Is it a good thing, for humans, that humans "happened"? Is it ethical to keep making new humans, now that reproduction is under our control? And given that a person exists (through no fault or choice of his own), is it immoral or irrational for him to refuse to live out his natural lifespan? Sarah Perry answers these questions in the negative--not out of misanthropy, but out of empathy for human suffering and respect for human autonomy. "Every Cradle Is a Grave undertakes a difficult task-to write on discomforting matters from a perspective that is socially unsanctioned. Strange as it may seem to some of us, there are scads of volumes that praise the abuses we endure in our lives. Such works have always been well thumbed, though they are only prayer-books for the purpose of worshiping misery. Sarah Perry is more honest and less perverse on the subject of suffering, treating pain as both a philosophical and a practical problem to which, it is admitted, there is no ultimate solution. Nonetheless, in her view there still remains intelligence and compassion as a means for confronting the insoluble. That is what makes this book as much a necessity as it is a rarity." --Thomas Ligotti, author of The Conspiracy against the Human Race Meaning. Value. Birth. Death. Sanctity. These subjects and others are reexamined through the lens of suicide rights and procreation ethics in Sarah Perry's Every Cradle Is a Grave. If you're at all fond of asking the truly Big Questions, this is the read you've been waiting for. Why are we here, and why do we stay? Prepare to have your assumptions dissected and turned on their heads. It's a bumpy ride, but then, so is this little journey we're on as we spin aimlessly around a sun that's destined to burn out, just as surely as each individual life will one day fall back down into the mud from which all life arises. Asking the hard questions is one thing, but hearing answers that might shake us to the core can be something else again. --Jim Crawford, author of Confessions of an Antinatalist "In this eminently rational, clear and serious book, Sarah Perry is courageous and strong enough to confront the forbidden truths of human life. Every Cradle Is a Grave should be mandatory reading for anyone who plans to have children." -Mikita Brottman, author of Thirteen Girls

Описание:
The Covid-19 pandemic presented the biggest world crisis for generations, upending our daily lives and routines. Even as we have started looking forward to a better future once more, the worst may yet be to come.
While few politicians and economists like to admit it, all signs point towards an unprecedented financial crisis, the most dangerous economic phenomenon of them all: stagflation. Caused by the worst possible macro-economic combo - rising unemployment and high inflation - it's a scenario that, until recently, experts insisted cannot happen. You need to prepare. Read The Great Stagflation to:
Understand the who, what, why and when of stagflation
Learn why the response offered by successive governments and economists is flawed and will not work
Face up to the scale of the problem and its impact on every aspect of our lives
Formulate a strategy not just to survive in this new, hostile financial environment, but to thrive
Avoid costly mistakes and investments that will expose you to more risk
Описание: RE:Think Innovation shows how to create a unified, idea-driven employee base that delivers more ideas in a shorter amount of time and ties individual employee competence with innovation techniques to direct corporate outcomes.
Today's leaders are navigating rapidly evolving technology, organisational uncertainty, financial pressure and changing client demands. At the same time employees expect leaders to be purpose-driven, authentic, inspiring, inclusive and to create an environment where they feel safe to discuss mental health. Balancing the many demands on leaders at work, and at home, requires resilience.
Angela defines resilience as the ability to take the challenges and changes of life in your stride and say "yes" to the opportunities that excite you.
The resilience habits in this book are entirely within your control, simple to understand, quick to do, can be done anywhere, cost no money and require no kit.
