He was a well-traveled, good-looking male model in an industry full of insatiable and insecure beautiful women. Women who adored him and were willing to do almost anything to prove it. He liked it that way. And he had become accustomed to it. Then it happened. One of his beautiful women fell over the cuckoo`s nest and shattered his peace of mind.

What Was Socialism, and What Comes Next?

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Among the first anthropologists to work in Eastern Europe, Katherine Verdery had built up a significant base of ethnographic and historical expertise when the major political transformations in the region began to take place. In this collection of essaysdealing with the aftermath of Soviet-style socialism and the different forms that may replace it, she explores the nature of socialism in order to understand more fully its consequences. By analyzing her primary data from Romania and Transylvania and synthesizing information from other sources, Verdery lends a distinctive anthropological perspective to a variety of themes common to political and economic studies on the end of socialism: themes such as `civil society,` the creation of market economies, privatization, national and ethnic conflict, and changing gender relations. Under Verdery`s examination, privatization and civil society appear not only as social processes, for example, but as symbols in political rhetoric. The classic… [detailed...]

What We Believe Together: Exploring the `Shared Convictions` of Anabaptist-related Churches

2008 y.
Publisher: Good Books
Description: Today, more than 1.5 million Christians are members of Mennonite-related churches. They are scattered in 67 countries. They trace their history to the Anabaptist movement, a part of the 16th century Radical Reformation in Europe. So what beliefs do these heirs of the free-church movement, only loosely connected to each other, hold in common today? This first-of-its-kind book explores seven convictions shared by these churches, now on six continents, who have always insisted that what they believe will be reflected in how they live. Mennonite World Conference commissioned this project and asked theologian and teacher Alfred Neufeld, of Asunci?n, Paraguay, to write this commentary on the shared convictions. In a rich and readable style, he fills out their meaning and significance, drawing upon Old and New Testament Scriptures, as well as examples and stories from history and current church life around the world. Very engaging! Writing as a member from the Southern… [detailed...]

Description: Book Description“Why am I a punk? Because I wasn’t anything before, except different. And now it’s like I’m different, but with a vengeance.” It’s been months since the suicide of Darby Crash, L.A. punk rock icon and lead singer of the Germs. He checked out on the same day John Lennon was shot: December 8, 1980. But for Rockets Redglare, it feels like yesterday. Darby was the hot-as-sun center of Rockets’s world. Part ringleader, part god, and all charismatic manipulator, Darby was as close to family as a hustler and street kid like Rockets might ever get. Now, as Rockets amps up for another night looking for tricks and scrounging a meal, Sex Pistols and X lyrics on repeat in his head, he knows he’s come to a turning point–the scene is changing, and nothing’s as easy as it was when Darby brought him into the fold.

What We Know About Cscl: And Implementing It in Higher Education (Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, V. 3)

Publisher: —
Description: This book is the first that presents an overview of the main topics involved in the study and implementation of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) from a learning viewpoint. It is also one of the few - or the only one - that does this from a research and practical instructional design perspective. Too many books begin with the medium and/or the environments used for CSCL, as if you would write a book on building a house by focusing almost primarily on hammers, saws and screwdrivers. The main topics are clustered in four sections that are derived from reverse ordering the CSCL acronym, because CSCL is all about learning through collaboration that is supported by computers. Although CSCL is increasingly advocated in higher education, specificCSCL implementations - i.e. something more than providing technology without a well developed educational rationale - are uncommon in higher education. The topics covered in this book, each including a review and several examples of… [detailed...]

What We Learned in the Rainforest: Business Lessons from Nature

Publisher: —
Description: What We Learned in the Rainforest teaches that nature isn?t just a source of resources for business ?it is a powerful model for superior business performance in the emerging economy. The authors show that the old model of business?the machine model that pitted business against nature?is growing obsolete. In the emerging economy, businesses excel when they emulate what they once sought to conquer. They maximize performance as they become like nature, like a complex living system. By moving beyond the industrial machine model, and applying the dynamic principles of the rainforest instead, business can learn how to create more profit than ever, and to do so more sustainably. What We Learned in the Rainforest presents examples from leading companies ?business strategies and management practices that maximize business performance by all measures: economic, social, and environmental. It shows, for instance, how Coca-Cola CEO Doug Daft uses diversity to drive sales,… [detailed...]

What We Want : Landscape as a Projection of People`s Desires

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn our times, cityscapes are no longer dictated from above, by urban planners, architects, engineers— or even by geography — but `from below,` by how the people live and work in groups. By simple, aggregated acts, people become spontaneous city planners: their urban design incorporates grafitti and street restaurants, makeshift homes that take their own formal pattern of development, ads and neon lights that become an integral part of the `natural` landscape, as they have beenfor decades in Las Vegas. Even civic monuments can emerge, like the hundreds of names of desaprecidos `the disappeared` scratched in dirt in Buenos Aires. These changes are not accidents: they are `What We Want.` This kind of global transformation is not a dramatic force compared to erecting a skyscraper or residential housing – sometimes it is not even quite visible. But this force operates in strikingly similar ways in cities around the world, it is a profound… [detailed...]

What Were They Thinking?: When Organizations Say One Thing But Do Another

Description: The research question for this study was, ?What are the cognitive or emotional mechanisms that enable people to pursue strategy that is contrary to their stated goals, even in light of evidence that suggests that their strategy is failing to achieve those goals?? The phenomena under study were people in systems that pursued strategies contrary to their desired goals. The people under study were driven by activities contrary to their own self-interest?until massive failure occurred. An examination of each of these cases revealed what the participants were thinking as they rushed to their own demise. The study identified 6 patterns of thinking that were present in the cases. These error-prone patterns were the magic answer, tyranny of the immediate, strategic inertia, strategic muddling, wooden-headedness, and invulnerability. A common fundamental error was found to underlie each of the patterns. The fundamental error was the denial of complexity?reducing the complex issues into… [detailed...]
