Описание:
When faced with complex challenges or uncertain outcomes, many leaders believe that if they are smart enough, work hard enough, or turn to the best management tools, they will be able to find the right answer, predict and plan for the future, and break down tasks to produce controllable results. But what are leaders to do when this isn't the case?
Rather than offering one-size-fits-all tips and tricks drawn from the realm of business as usual, Simple Habits for Complex Times provides three integral practices that enable leaders to navigate the unknown. By taking multiple perspectives, asking different questions, and seeing more of their system, leaders can better understand themselves, their roles, and the world around them. They can become more nimble, respond with agility, and guide their organizations to thrive in an ever-shifting business landscape. The more leaders use these simple habits, the more they enhance their performance and solve increasingly common, sticky business issues with greater acumen.
Whether in large or small organizations, in government or the private sector, in the U.S. or overseas, leaders will turn to this book as a companion that helps them grow into the best version of themselves.

Описание: On the evening of March 28, 1956, Steve Garvey's father, a Greyhound bus driver in the Tampa Bay area, asked his young son if he'd like to accompany him as he drove the Brooklyn Dodgers to a spring-training game with the New York Yankees. For Garvey, a baseball card collector and an aspiring Little Leaguer, the opportunity stretched beyond his wildest imagination and marked the beginning of a legendary career and life in baseball. Garvey spent five years (1956-1961) as a bat boy, mostly for the Brooklyn Dodgers and briefly for the New York Yankees and the Detroit Tigers. The fact that he would go on to become a first baseman with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and one of the most successful players of his era, is like something out of a Hollywood script. My Bat Boy Days is his moving collection of indelible memories, fascinating profiles, and lessons learned -- about the game and about life -- from heroes such as Jackie Robinson, Sandy Koufax, and Mickey Mantle. My Bat Boy Days is for the generation of fans who remember the Boys of Summer and for the generation who grew up watching Steve Garvey play for the love of the game. Garvey's story is perfect for sharing with children and grandchildren who are just now getting to know and love the game.

Going beyond discussions of legal justice, Stephen Garvey argues for actus reus and mens rea as necessary conditions, among others, for the legitimacy of state punishment.

Описание: On the role smartphones play in the lives of the aging in contemporary Ireland. This volume documents a radical change in the experience of aging. Based on two ethnographies in Dublin, Ireland, the book illustrates how smartphones enable old people to focus on crafting a new life in retirement. For some, the smartphone is an intimidating burden linked to being on the wrong side of a new digital divide. But for most, however, it has become integral to a new trajectory towards a more sustainable life, both for themselves and their environment. The smartphone has reunited extended family and old friends, helped resolve intergenerational conflicts though new forms of grandparenting, and has become a health resource. This is a book about acknowledging late middle age in contemporary Ireland and examines how older people in Ireland experience life today.

Описание: A look at the adoption of smartphones by older people across the globe. The smartphone is often literally right in front of our nose--but do we really know what it is, or what its consequences are for people's lives around the world? This volume presents the findings of eleven anthropologists in Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America on the adoption of smartphones by older people. Their research reveals that smartphones are a technology for everyone, not just for the young. The Global Smartphone presents a series of original perspectives deriving from a comparative research project on the ways that people use smartphones. The smartphone is unprecedented in the degree to which the user can transform it. It follows that in order to comprehend it, we must take into consideration a range of national and cultural nuances, such as visual communication in China and Japan, mobile money in Cameroon and Uganda, and access to health information in Chile and Ireland--all alongside diverse trajectories of aging in Al Quds, Brazil, and Italy.

Описание: Many Beaucoup Magics is unusual on many levels. It's The Red Badge of Courage of The American War in Vietnam. It's actually a memoir presented as a novella written in the third person. It is real. A true story and not merely "based on a true story," Here is it's Kirkus Review. Kirkus is the oldest, largest and most prestigious reviewer of books in America and arguably, the world. "Debut novelist Garvey, a Vietnam veteran, focuses on one man, Lt. John McManus, in a tale based on a true story. McManus grows up with his uncle's war stories and years later, in 1965, he impulsively joins the Army. In his last weekend stateside, he chances upon a book by astrologer Sydney Omarr. A random opening of the text gives him a page on "August The 17th" and he becomes hooked by the carefully ambiguous entry, which says that the day calls for, among other things, "an interrogated act of courage, and that he would have to pass some cosmic test." ( this conceit may sound hokey, but readers will find that Garvey manages to pull it off.) The 17th of August, as a concept, "crawled inside his head, made a nest, and fouled it." The story then marches inexorably to its fiery climax, when McManus' men find themselves camped on the Cambodian Border outnumbered by perhaps 20-to-1. His outfit is composed of Montagnards - fierce, and fiercely independent, mountain people whom McManus comes to respect deeply and even love. They, like him, are avid believers in dreams as omens, which fosters a very strong bond between the young lieutenant and his grunts. Garvey does a good job of building suspense - one can almost see the calendar pages flip by - as August 17th, 1968 looms, the exact day when the North Vietnamese military plans to launch a massive assault. McManus, as Garvey portrays him, is far from gung-ho; in fact, he's very ambivalent about the war and very terrified most of the time, but he has a job to do, and he does it honorably. The climax is a scene which begs for the big screen treatment. Overall, Garvey writes tightly and economically with hardly a wasted word, when so many Vietnam books tend to scrawl. And at the end, he includes a poem which does credible homage to Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "Ulysses." A slightly different kind of Vietnam take by a gifted writer. "Jim Morris, with solid Special Forces "chops" four purple hearts, three tours, blown out of country twice, reviewed over 1500 manuscripts for a publisher in New York, stated Many Beaucoup Magics is "One of the finest novels of the Vietnam War."
