O penězích a trhu - Henry Kaufman

Henry Kaufman, autor knihy O penězích a trhu, která se setkala ve Spojených státech s velmi příznivým ohlasem, byl po mnoho let jedním z nejvlivnějších mužů na Wall Street. Své nejnovější dílo napsal vlastně na sklonku pracovní kariéry, kdy jako majitel menší investiční kapitálové společnosti věnuje nemalé prostředky na subvencování amerických univerzit a vzdělávání mladší generace ekonomů. Velice živě psaná kniha poskytuje v mnoha ohledech nový a neotřelý pohled na Wall Street a lidi, kteří tam podnikají a pracují. Historické souvislosti uvádí do kontextu se současnou globalizací světových financí a podrobně analyzuje důsledky tohoto stavu, z nichž některé mohou být slibné, jiné potenciálně nebezpečné.Téma, které se v knize stále vrací v souvislosti s obchodem s penězi a cennými papíry, tkví ve vnitřním napětí mezi potřebou konkurovat, prosperovat a růst a potřebou zacházet s klienty slušně a respektovat i širší veřejný zájem zosobňovaný regulací a dohledem, jež dnes už také mají globální charakter. Kaufman upozorňuje na slabiny tzv. systému moderního řízení rizik a obchodních strategií založených spíše na matematických konstrukcích než na jasném pochopení specifik finančních trhů a lidského faktoru. Důležitou část knihy představuje rozbor nevídané konjunktury, kterou Wall Street zaznamenala v uplynulých dvaceti letech jako důsledek inovací, deregulací a globalizace, a převratu ve světovém finančnictví, k němuž v souvislosti s ní došlo, ale také příčin dnešních finančních krizí v Jižní Americe, jihovýchodní Asii i celosvětového zpomalení ekonomiky.

The Lost Girls of Autism - Gina Rippon

A truly fascinating must-read â “ Elinor Cleghorn, bestselling author of Unwell Women Powerful and well-researched. The Lost Girls of Autism shines a much-needed spotlight on a critical issue â “ Dr Maureen Dunne, author of The Neurodiversity EdgeThe history of autism is male. It is time for women and girls to enter the spotlight.When autistic girls meet clinicians, they are often misdiagnosed with anxiety, depression, personality disorders â “ or receive no diagnosis at all. Autismâ ™s â ˜male spotlightâ ™ means we are only now starting to redress this profound injustice.In The Lost Girls of Autism, renowned brain scientist Gina Rippon delves into the emerging science of female autism, asking why it has been systematically ignored for so long. Generations of researchers, convinced autism was a male problem, simply didnâ ™t bother looking for it in women. But it is now becoming increasingly clear that many autistic women and girls do not fit the traditional, male, model of autism. Instead, they camouflage and mask, hiding their autistic traits to accommodate a society that shuns them.Urgent and insightful, this is a searching examination of how sexism has biased our understanding of autism. Informed by the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, The Lost Girls of Autism is a clarion call for society to recognize the full spectrum of autistic experience.

Kings of Shanghai - Jonathan Kaufman

A masterpiece of research, The Last Kings of Shanghai is a vivid and fascinating story of wealth, family intrigue, and political strategy on the world stage from colonialism to communism to globalized capitalism Susannah Heschel, Eli Black Professor of Jewish Studies, Dartmouth CollegeAn epic, multigenerational story of two rival dynasties who flourished in Shanghai and Hong Kong as twentieth-century China surged into the modern eraShanghai, 1936. The Cathay Hotel, located on the city s famous waterfront, is one of the most glamorous in the world. Built by Victor Sassoon - billionaire playboy and scion of the Sassoon dynasty - the hotel hosts a who s who of global celebrities: Noel Coward has written a draft of Private Lives in his suite, Charlie Chaplin entertained his wife-to-be, and the American socialite Wallis Simpson reportedly posed for glamour photographs. A few miles away, Mao and the nascent Communist party have been plotting revolution before being forced to flee the city.By the 1930s, the Sassoons had been doing business in China for a century, rivaled in wealth and influence by only one other dynasty - the Kadoories. These two Jewish families, both originally from Baghdad, stood astride Chinese business and politics for more than one hundred and seventy five years, profiting from the Opium Wars; surviving Japanese occupation; courting Chiang Kai-shek; and nearly losing everything as the Communists swept into power. In Kings of Shanghai, Jonathan Kaufman tells the remarkable history of how these families ignited an economic boom and opened China to the world, but remained blind to the country s deep inequality and to the political turmoil on their doorsteps. In a story stretching from Baghdad to Hong Kong to Shanghai to London, Kaufman enters the lives and minds of these ambitious men and women to forge a tale of opium smuggling, family rivalry, political intrigue and survival.

Co vám chce říct vaše dítě s autismem - Maja Toudal

Malé děti s autismem mívají velké problémy s popisováním svých myšlenek, pocitů a zážitků. Vnímají, přemýšlí, učí se a komunikují jiným způsobem a členové rodiny i učitelé musí zjistit, jak s rozdíly nakládat. Časem si dítě může osvojit, jak vyjádřit věci, které by ostatní měli vědět. Mnoho už ale známe díky dospělým lidem s autismem, jako je Maja Toudalová. (z předmluvy Tonyho Attwooda) Maja Toudalová na základě vlastních zkušeností, rozhovorů s dalšími lidmi s autismem i s předními odborníky na poruchy autistického spektra pojmenovává a jasně vysvětluje mnoho aspektů autismu. Zkoumá řadu běžných problémů, kterým může dítě nebo dospívající s autismem čelit v různých (společenských) situacích. Ať se jedná o společné stolování v rodině, kamarádské vztahy, zvládání šikany a tlaku vrstevníků ve škole i na sociálních sítích, předcházení a zvládání záchvatů (meltdown) nebo obyčejné situace, jako je třeba nakupování bot a oblečení. Maja předkládá řadu zajímavých a poutavých rad o tom, co dítě nebo dospívající s autismem potřebuje a proč. Kniha se tak může stát pro rodiče a učitele neocenitelným pomocníkem a základním průvodcem rodičovstvím a světem dětí s PAS.

Autism and the Empathy Epidemic - Janet Harbord

Threading an enquiry through debates in neurodiversity scholarship and disability studies as well as film theory, this open access book challenges the widespread idea that autism is an epidemic characterised predominantly by a deficit of empathy, arguing that the reverse is true: we are living through an empathy epidemic in which autism is the outcast. In 1908, the British psychologist, Edward Titchener, translated the German term Einfühlung into the English language as ⠘empathy⠙, around the same time that Eugen Bleuler coined the term ⠘autism⠙ for a group of symptoms subset to an emerging classification of schizophrenia. Empathy became a useful tool to describe relations between people in a clinical context, but in the process of its incorporation into psychology, it shed its rich sensory meaning from Einfühlung as ⠘feeling-into⠙ weather systems, architectural forms, and artworks. A remarkable reversal takes place in the first part of the twentieth century whereby empathy becomes an intra-human ethical act, and autism emerges as its inverse. Digging up and examining the buried relation between autism with an earlier form of ⠘empathy⠙, this book argues that autism, like cinema, models an ethical apprehension of the more-than-human world.The eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by The Wellcome Trust.

Autism in Heels - Jennifer Cook O

Autism in Heels, an intimate memoir and Wall Street Journal bestseller, reveals the woman inside one of autismÂ’s most prominent figures, Jennifer O Toole. At the age of thirty-five, Jennifer was diagnosed with Asperger s syndrome, and for the first time in her life, things made sense. Jennifer exposes the constant struggle between carefully crafted persona and authentic existence, editing the autism script with wit, candor, passion, and power. Her journey is one of reverse-self-discovery not only as an Aspie but--more importantly--as a thoroughly modern woman.Beyond being a memoir, Autism in Heels is a love letter to all women. ItÂ’s a conversation starter. A game changer. And a firsthand account of what it is to walk in Jennifer s shoes (especially those iconic red stilettos).Whether it s bad perms or body image, sexuality or self-esteem, Jennifer s is as much a human journey as one on the spectrum. Because autism looks a bit different in pink, most girls and women who fit the profile are not identified, facing years of avoidable anxiety, eating disorders, volatile relationships, self-harm, and stunted independence. Jennifer has been there, too. Autism in Heels takes that message to the mainstream.From her own struggles and self-discovery, she has built an empire of empowerment, inspiring women the world over to realize they aren t mistakes. They are misunderstood miracles.

Turn Autism Around - Dr. Mary Barbera

This practical guide for parents of young children with autism or developmental delays outlines simple and effective practices for developing communication, social and behavioural skills.Developmental delays and signs of autism usually show up before 18 months of age, yet children are often not diagnosed until they are four or five years old. In Turn Autism Around, Dr Mary Barbera explains why parents canâ ™t afford to worry and wait in long lines for evaluations and treatment while not knowing how to help their children. She empowers parents, caregivers and early intervention professionals to regain hope and take back control with simple strategies to dramatically improve outcomes for their children.Dr Barbera has created a new approach to teaching kids with developmental delays that uses the science of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) married with a positive, child-friendly methodology that any parent can use â “ whether or not their child has delays. This approach teaches communication skills and socialization strategies, as well as tackling sleep, eating, potty training and behaviour challenges in a positive, effective and lasting way. Turn Autism Around is the first book of its kind that calls attention to an important fact: parents can make a tremendous impact on their childâ ™s development through behavioural practices taught at home, in as little as 15 minutes a day. This programme shows that developmental delays can be remediated, and in some cases, delays can be caught up altogether, if parents intervene while the child is young. This book is for parents of young children aged one-to-five years who are passionate about helping their child as well as learning how they can change the trajectory of their childâ ™s and familyâ ™s life.

Autism Is Not A Disease - Hare Jodie

Neurodiversity is one of the most urgent political issues of our time. As the number of diagnoses of autism, ADHD, and other types of neurodivergence rises, we are starting to understand that there is no such thing as a normal brain. But society is still organised around neuronormativity, and autism is treated as a disease.Jodie Hare, diagnosed with autism at twenty-three, argues it is time to redefine the politics of who we are. She calls for the recognition of diversity as part of natural variation, rather than a departure from sameness. This will have an impact on the places where we learn, work, and socialise - and Hare shows how these can be adapted to be more inclusive and accessible. She shows how we might commit to building a world where we can all thrive, one that works to combat discrimination based on race, class, gender, and disability.

AUTISM - ONE FAMILY

This book sensitively describes the journey of an autistic boy named Zeke, his parents and his siblings. This book also exposes elements of medical negligence concerning an ASD boy. My hope in doing this is to encourage parents of children with learning difficulties to follow my example in order to ensure their children are treated fairly by receiving the best medical intervention for their medical condition. It would appear that certain types of medical professionals will cut corners when providing medical care for some children or subjects with a disability in order to save the National Health Service money. Everyone deserves to have the best medical treatment available and have their lives prolonged as long as possible. This book also reveals that due to new initiatives in the education and training of teachers and support workers of ASD children/young people, the taboo and stigma that existed about autism worldwide, is now significantly reduced. This acceptance is due to the fact that many ASD people are making good progress in education. Some are holding down professional and skilled employment. Some are even falling in love and raising their own children.
