Identity Theft, Second Edition - Debra E. Meyerson, Steve Zuckerman
Identity Theft, Second Edition is an award-winning book that follows Stanford professor Debra Meyerson’s journey to recover from a severe stroke that initially left her physically incapacitated and unable to speak. In addition to providing realistic expectations for the hard work needed to regain everyday capabilities, Meyerson and Zuckerman focus on the less frequently documented emotional journey as she and her family rebuild identity in recovery. Virtually every stroke survivor is haunted by questions like “Who am I now?” and “How do I rebuild a meaningful and rewarding life?” after losing so much of what they had before—capabilities, careers and jobs, relationships, and more. This is a book full of hope for survivors—from stroke or other life-changing injuries or illnesses—as well as their care partners, families, and communities. The first edition of Identity Theft centers on Debra’s experience: her stroke, her extraordinary efforts to recover, and her journey to redefine herself. But she also draws on her skills as a social scientist, sharing stories from several dozen fellow survivors, family members, friends, colleagues, therapists, and doctors she has met and interviewed. By sharing this diversity of experiences, Debra highlights how every stroke is different and every recovery is different. She provides a valuable look at the broad possibilities for successfully navigating the challenging physical recovery—and the equally difficult and frequently unspoken emotional journey toward rebuilding one’s identity and a rewarding life after a trauma like stroke. This second edition is written by Debra and her husband, Steve Zuckerman. As they have shared in countless talks, “Just as the original book was headed to the printers, we decided that ‘the finish line had become a new starting line.’” They co-founded the nonprofit Stroke Onward, where they have been working side by side to build an organization that can catalyze change in the healthcare system to better integrate the emotional journey of rebuilding identity into a lifelong recovery process. This edition draws on five more years of experience as a post-stroke couple and what they’ve learned from thousands more survivors, family members, and healthcare professionals. They’ve added new insights about the long-term recovery process and how we can change the stroke system of care to better support all survivors and their families. Their 4,500-mile bike ride called Stroke Across America in 2021 helped raise awareness for Stroke Onward and stroke suvivorship care.

Kdyby zdi promluvily - Ášapúrna Debí
Výbor z povídkové tvorby bengálské spisovatelky Ášápúrny Debí (1909-1995). Psycholožka bez diplomu, laureátka literárních cen bez základního školního vzdělání - tak lze nazvat tuto největší bengálskou spisovatelku 20. století. Patřila k poslední generaci indických žen, u nichž se školní docházka považovala za nepatřičnost; číst a psát se naučila od matky. Navazuje na domácí kořeny, především na prozaické dílo Rabíndranátha Thákura, a to nejen bohatým jazykem, ale hlavně nezpochybňujícím humanismem. K thákurovskému klasickému odtažitému (a mužskému) postoji, jenž lidské bolesti monumentalizoval a poetizoval, vytvořila současný (a ženský) protiklad: věcný pohled zblízka, zaměřený na detail, obyčejnost, každodennost. Celý život prožila v tradiční hinduistické velkorodině a rodinné vztahy jsou také dominantním tématem její tvorby. V mikrosvětě rodiny objevila zákonitosti lidského soužití platné i pro celospolečenský makrosvět. Do zahraničí proniká její dílo jen omezeně především pro těsnou závislost na indickém hinduistickém prostředí se spoustou reálií. Právě to, co by bylo pro neindické čtenáře "exotické" a tedy přitažlivé, je pro překlad velmi obtížné. Naše publikace je prvním českým knižním výborem, nahlížejícím za zdi vnitřních - ženských - částí hinduistických domovů.

Základní element - Debra Silverman
Živlová charakteristika je jednou z nejstarších, nejjednodušších a nejužitečnějších typologií osobnosti. Vědomá práce s živly nám může pomoci lépe pochopit, kdo jsme a jakou úlohu v životě máme na tomto světě sehrát. Prostřednictvím zkoumání elementů se můžeme vrátit k moudrosti předků a stejně jako oni ctít posvátnou podstatu života. Astroložka a terapeutka Debra Silverman představuje v Základním elementu svět živlů a nabízí rovněž mapu, která nám pomůže se v tomto světě zorientovat. Na příkladech reálných lidí vysvětluje, jak se oheň, vzduch, voda a země mohou projevovat v povaze člověka, jak poznáme, zda jsou naše živly v rovnováze a také učí, jak případnou nerovnováhu vybalancovat. V Základním elementu se mimo jiné dozvíte: Jaká je vaše živlová povaha? Které živly jsou ve vás silné a který je nejslabší? Projevují se vaše živly zdravě, nebo nezdravě? Jak je můžete uvést zase do rovnováhy? Jak se chovají typické ženy a typičtí muži pod vládou vody, země, vzduchu a ohně? Poznáváte se v tomto popisu? Rozumíte díky tomu lépe někomu z vašich blízkých? Čeho lze při mistrném zvládnutí primárního živlu v životě dosáhnout?

A Woman Is Responsible for Everything - Debra Kaplan, Elisheva Carlebach
A groundbreaking look at the integral role of women in early modern Jewish communal lifeIn small villages, bustling cities, and crowded ghettos across early modern Europe, Jewish women were increasingly active participants in the daily life of their communities, managing homes and professions, leading institutions and sororities, and crafting objects and texts of exquisite beauty. A Woman Is Responsible for Everything marshals a dazzling array of previously untapped archival sources to tell the stories of these woman for the first time. Debra Kaplan and Elisheva Carlebach focus their lens on the kehillah, a lively and thriving form of communal life that sustained European Jews for three centuries. They paint vibrant portraits of Jewish women of all walks of life, from those who wielded their wealth and influence in and out of their communities to the poorest maidservants and vagrants, from single and married women to the widowed and divorced. We follow them into their homes and learn about the possessions they valued and used, the books they read, and the writings they composed. Speaking to us in their own voices, these women reveal tremendous economic initiative in the rural marketplace and the princely court, and they express their profound spirituality in the home as well as the synagogue. Beautifully illustrated, A Woman Is Responsible for Everything lifts the veil of silence that has obscured the lives of these women for too long, contributing a new chapter to the history of Jewish women and a new understanding of the Jewish past.

This is no ordinary data science book. Speak Data is the first pop nonfiction book to explore the definition of data and its impacts on our daily lives. Insightful ideas and colorful data illustrations by award-winning information designer Giorgia Lupi guide you from one observation and revelation to the next."Data is almost anything, because almost anything can get recorded. But it’s kind of a magical thing—potentially one of the most powerful things humans have ever done." —James Clear, author of Atomic Habits Today we are told that data is everywhere, from the smartphones in our pockets to the satellites in space. But what is data, really? What role does it play in our lives? And why should anyone care? Through inspiring illustrations and a fresh, accessible approach, Speak Data invites us to see data differently—not just as numbers on a screen or tick marks in a chart, but as a language to help us better understand each other and the world around us. Seventeen thought-provoking conversations with leaders in business, tech, medicine, psychology, health, art, and more explore the human side of data, unpacking its powerful ability to divulge patterns, tell stories, stir emotion, and illuminate complexity. While often stereotyped as abstract or intimidating, here data is revealed as something far different: personal, nuanced, and above all, human made. Featuring: Tech pioneer John Maeda on the value of data visualization during global emergencies. Marketing legend Seth Godin on how to use data to get people to really care about climate change. Museum curator Paola Antonelli on whether data is art. Atomic Habits author James Clear on the ways data can (and can’t) describe human identity. AI data artist Refik Anadol on how big datasets can dream. And many more. In this uniquely interdisciplinary study, authors Giorgia Lupi and Phillip Cox present data as a vocabulary that anyone can use and that anyone can understand.

Afterlives of Data - Mary F.E. Ebeling
What our health data tell American capitalism about our value—and how that controls our lives. Afterlives of Data follows the curious and multiple lives that our data live once they escape our control. Mary F. E. Ebeling's ethnographic investigation shows how information about our health and the debt that we carry becomes biopolitical assets owned by healthcare providers, insurers, commercial data brokers, credit reporting companies, and platforms. By delving into the oceans of data built from everyday medical and debt traumas, Ebeling reveals how data about our lives come to affect our bodies and our life chances and to wholly define us. Investigations into secretive data collection and breaches of privacy by the likes of Cambridge Analytica have piqued concerns among many Americans about exactly what is being done with their data. From credit bureaus and consumer data brokers like Equifax and Experian to the secretive military contractor Palantir, this massive industry has little regulatory oversight for health data and works to actively obscure how it profits from our data. In this book, Ebeling traces the health data—medical information extracted from patients' bodies—that are digitized and repackaged into new data commodities that have afterlives in database lakes and oceans, algorithms, and statistical models used to score patients on their creditworthiness and riskiness. Critical and disturbing, Afterlives of Data examines how Americans' data about their health and their debt are used in the service of marketing and capitalist surveillance.
