Beat Gender Bias - Karen Morley

Bias might be built in to how our brains work, but that doesn''t make it acceptable. Recent advances in psychology and neuroscience have given us unprecedented insight into how biases interfere with good decision-making. When it comes to leadership, biases create a ''sticky floor'', making it hard for women to rise to the top. The good news is that the change to gender balance can be accelerated if you know more about how bias works.In this book, Dr Karen Morley explains how biases, particularly the insidious unconscious ones, trip us up. She outlines an approach for minimising their impact in organisations, with Bias Busters - specific actions you can take with the goal of making it easier to notice, talk about and overcome bias.Beat Gender Bias is for leaders and all men and women who want a better working world. By creating an inclusive culture, organisations create personal, social and economic value that will sustain future success.This book makes it clear how you can make a difference and play a bigger, more satisfying part in creating a more inclusive world.

Breaking Through Bias - Alton B. Harris, Andrea S. Kramer

Fully Revised Second EditionSince Breaking Through Bias was published in 2016, the #MeToo movement has exposed just how pervasive sexual harassment is in the workplace; the increase in public misogynistic comments has made clear that explicit gender bias is not a thing of the past; and stay-at-home orders and school closings due to Covid-19 have brought into even sharper focus the discriminatory impact of the unequal division of child care and household responsibilities between most couples. In this Second Edition of Breaking Through Bias, the authors, Kramer and Harris, explain how these recent developments fit into a larger pattern of implicit or unconscious gender bias that imposes serious obstacles to women''s career advancement. They argue persuasively, however, that while this bias is the result of deeply rooted gender stereotypes, women can avoid or overcome its discriminatory consequences by the effective use of "attuned gender communication" to manage the impressions other people have of them. Kramer and Harris illustrate the use of attuned gender communication in each of the contexts in which gender bias manifests itself: negative bias (women are not as talented as men), benevolent bias (women need men''s support), age bias (older women are not effective workers), motherhood bias ...

Defending Women's Spaces - Karen Ingala Smith

Who counts as a woman? This question lies at the heart of many public debates about sex and gender today. While we increasingly recognise the desire of some to eliminate the sex binary in law, a particular boiling point emerges through conflicting demands over women’s spaces. Which should govern access to these – sex or gender identity? Karen Ingala Smith, a veteran campaigner for women’s and girls’ rights, opts for the former. In this trenchant critique of inclusivity politics, she argues that we cannot ignore the wealth of evidence which shows that people of the female sex have a unique set of needs which are often not met by mixed-sex spaces. Drawing on her 30 years of experience in researching and recording men’s violence against women and girls, she outlines how certain spaces, including refuges, benefit from remaining single sex – and what they stand to lose. Written with sensitivity and respect for all concerned, this book nevertheless dismantles the idea that we have reached a post-sex utopia.

The North - Paul Morley

A celebratory and beautiful mixture of memoir, social history and cultural observation, Paul Morley''s The North is a unique portrait of Northern England and almost everything within it''Breathtaking tour de force'' Mail on Sunday''Packed with raw emotions and ambivalent passions … Morley writes with care and precision, though, and his rhythm is such that his book is a lively, breezy read'' Sunday TimesPaul Morley grew up in Reddish, less than five miles from Manchester and even closer to Stockport. Ever since the age of seven Morley has always thought of himself as a northerner. What that meant, he wasn''t entirely sure. It was for him, as it is for millions of others in England, an absolute, indisputable truth. Forty years after walking down grey pavements on his way to school, Paul explores what it means to be northern and why those who consider themselves to be believe it so strongly.Like industrial towns dotted across great green landscapes of hills and valleys, Morley breaks up his own history with fragments of his region''s own social and cultural background. Stories of his Dad spreading margarine on Weetabix stand alongside those about northern England''s first fish and chip shop in Mossley, near Oldham. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A Sound Mind - Paul Morley

''Exhilarating'' - Sunday Times''Funny and moving'' - Jarvis CockerMusic critic and writer Paul Morley weaves together memoir and history in a spiralling tale that establishes classical music as the most rebellious genre of all.Paul Morley had stopped being surprised by modern pop music and found himself retreating into the sounds of artists he loved when, as an emerging music journalist in the 70s, he wrote for NME. But not wishing to give in to dreary nostalgia, endlessly circling back to the bands he wrote about in the past, he went searching for something new, rare and wondrous – and found it in classical music. A soaring polemic, a grumpy reflection on modern rock, and a fan’s love note, A Sound Mind rejects the idea that classical music is establishment; old; a drag. Instead, the book reveals this genre to be the most exciting and varied in music. A Sound Mind is a multi-layered memoir of Morley’s shifting musical tastes, but it is also a compelling history of classical music that reveals the genre’s rich and often deviant past – and, hopefully, future. Like a conductor, Morley weaves together timelines and timeframes in an orchestral narrative that declares the transformative and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Cure Your Fatigue, Second Edition - Morley M. Robbins

Being tired all the time is not normal—and it’s not something you just have to power through. Reclaim control of your health with this updated edition of the life-changing guide.Fatigue and lack of energy are one of the top complaints health care professionals hear from their patients. All too often, these individuals are told that “everything looks normal” and sent home with no new information and no way to improve their quality of life. Troublingly, this energy deficiency is also at the root of metabolic syndrome, heart disease, cancer, neurodegeneration, liver disease, PCOS, and more. If only patients and their doctors knew that their ailments could likely be traced to dysregulation in one key mineral—copper—and that feeling better was within reach. After decades of research, Morley M. Robbins wrote Cure Your Fatigue to shed light on the culprit behind chronic fatigue: mineral deficiencies.

Healing Bias - Dana E. Crawford

Everyone has biases, yet most people are unable to discuss them openly without feelings of shame, stigma and defensiveness. Although perceived as flaws or a question of one’s character, these biases should be viewed as socially constructed coping mechanisms shaped by trauma, stress and the need to survive. Only when redefined will we be able to have honest conversations about, and reductions in, bias, race and prejudice.Dana Crawford’s Crawford Bias Reduction Theory & Training (CBRT) invites readers on a transformative journey to understand, research and reduce bias at the internal, relational and systemic levels. Her three-pronged approach starts with the awareness phase which focuses on self-reflection and group interaction through empathy, compassion and accountability. The investigation phase will help readers recognise and dissect bias within themselves, with others and in society.Lastly, the reduction phase further develops skills to confront and mitigate bias with exercises like role-play and real-play scenarios. With reflection prompts, personal stories, actionable advice and examples inspired by actual events, Healing Bias translates complex ideas into relatable, empowering solutions that can be used on your own or in group settings.

The Leader's Guide to Unconscious Bias - PAMELA FULLER, Mark Murphy, Anne Chow

It can look like the disappointment of an HR professional when a candidate for a new position asks about maternity leave.

Ideal for every manager who wants to understand and move past their own preconceived ideas, Unconscious Bias explains that bias is the result of mental shortcuts, our likes and dislikes, and is a natural part of the human condition.

Bias - Thomas J. Kelly

Bias seems to be everywhere. Biased media outlets decisively influence the political opinions and votes of millions of people. Discriminatory policies favor some racial groups over others. We tend to judge ourselves more favorably than our peers, and more favorably than the evidence warrants. But what is it, exactly, for a person or thing to be biased?In Bias: A Philosophical Study, Thomas Kelly explores a number of foundational questions about the nature of bias and our practices of attributing it. He develops a general framework for thinking about bias, the norm theoretic account, and shows how that framework illuminates much that we say and think about bias in both everyday life and the sciences. He argues provocatively that both morality and rationality sometimes require us to be biased; that groups of people can be biased even if none of their members are; that we are often rationally required to believe that those who disagree with us are biased, even if we know absolutely nothing about why they believe as they do or about their psychologies; and that whether someone counts as biased is often a relative matter. He defends the possibility of what he calls ''biased knowing'' and argues that ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Holidays with Hitler - Nathan Morley

Holidays with Hitler tells the story of German leisure time and state-sponsored fun under the Nazi regime. Nathan Morley looks at consumerism, entertainment and travel in German society, and offers a vivid portrait of what it was like to visit as a foreign tourist seeking fun in a totalitarian state.An important part of Nazi policy was the vast Strength through Joy programme, headed by Dr Robert Ley – a brash and fanatical party member. Although Strength through Joy is best remembered for introducing the Volkswagen Beetle, it also allowed fourteen million people to enjoy annual vacations at bargain basement prices while improving the health of the population by encouraging running, hiking, swimming, and active family holidays. With millions of working people paying monthly dues, the organization amassed a hefty fortune. On the island of Rügen in the Baltic Sea, a vast resort capable of accommodating 22,000 holidaymakers began construction in 1937 – the same year the Wilhelm Gustloff, the first Strength Through Joy vessel, was launched in Hamburg. With the arrival of the Second World War, the organisation adapted, the goal being the ‘cultural caretaking of the bomb-battered population and our soldiers’.Nathan Morley, employing meticulous research, tells the story not ...

Hindsight Bias

With hindsight, we tend to exaggerate what we had known with foresight. This phenomenon can be observed in a memory design in which previous judgements have to be recalled after outcome information has been made available, or in a hypothetical design in which participants receive outcome information but are asked to ignore it when subsequently judging what they would have said without this information. Since the introduction of this so-called hindsight bias or knew-it-all-along effect to the psychological literature in the mid-seventies, there has been immense research on this topic. This special issue presents ten articles that describe the most recent theoretical developments and empirical results. After a brief introductory overview of the state of the art, the issue commences with two process models (SARA, Pohl, Eisenhauer & Hardt; and RAFT, Hertwig, Fanselow & Hoffrage), which are formalized enough to allow for computer simulations. Subsequently, Hardt and Pohl demonstrate how the hindsight bias is related to the phenomenon of anchoring, and Schwarz and Stahlberg propose that due to meta-cognitive processes, the outcome information is deliberately chosen as such an anchor. In a variant of the meta-cognitive approach, Werth and Strack argue that ease of retrieval of an answer is used ... Unknown localization key: "more"

This book offers university teachers informed and practical strategies for raising awareness of bias in teaching, learning and assessment practices. Conscious and unconscious biases influence judgements, perceptions, decision making and actions, and societal awareness has now turned the spotlight on how higher education (HE) is addressing bias at institutional and individual levels.

It can be difficult to know where to start and how to sustain effective impact to achieve inclusion, equity and equality of opportunity. This book offers informed and practical strategies for raising awareness of bias in teaching, learning and assessment practices and provides approaches to eliminate, limit and mitigate the negative effects of bias on university students.

Od knihy Johna Locka Esej o lidském rozumu až po nejnovější vydání Diagnostického a statistického manuálu duševních poruch bylo na šílenství pohlíženo jako na směsici pochybených myšlenek podnícených vyšinutou a divokou imaginací. Tato kniha, jež je sborníkem esejů patnácti autorů, dokazuje, že vztah imaginace a patologických jevů je tak různorodý a komplikovaný jako lidská existence samotná. Imaginace má moc nejen reagovat na okolní svět, ale dokáže jej i přetvářet. A tato moc je jako dvousečná zbraň: je zároveň destruktivní i kreativní.Nedávné objevy v oblasti genetiky a věd zabývajících se nervovým systémem posílily empirický přístup v psychiatrii. V důsledku toho se poněkud zapomíná na subjektivní aspekty patologické zkušenosti. V této knize se tvrdí, že zkoumání imaginace a její patologie má ohromné zpoždění a že taková integrace bude velice plodná pro teorii i klinickou praxi. Jelikož imaginace může být kreativně integrační, ale i patologická, zdůrazňuje tato kniha holistický, terapeutický aspekt představivosti stejnou měrou jako její možné destruktivní následky. Kniha pojednává o filosofickém pohledu na patologickou imaginaci, vztahu patologické imaginace a psychodynamické tradice a představuje charakteristické případy patologické imaginace při onemocnění schizofrenií, u mladistvých, u umělců (Václav Nižinský) a v oblasti náboženství (svatý Antonín).

A lively, informative, and engaging guide to gender by an author-illustrator who helps readers understand the multiplicity of answers to “What even is gender?”Queer, cisgender, transgender, nonbinary, androgynous, maverique, intergender, genderfluid. Louie and their cat (a.k.a. “Cat”) take you on a journey through the world of gender—without claiming to have it all figured out or knowing the perfect definition for this widely complex subject. Gender is tricky to understand because it’s a social construct intersecting with many other parts of our identity, including class, race, age, religion. For a long time, people thought of gender as binary: male/female, pirate/princess, sports/shopping. Now, we’re starting to understand it’s not that simple. That’s what this book is about: figuring out what gender means, one human being at a time, and giving us new ways to let the world know who we are.Boy, girl, either/or, neither/nor, everything in between: gender is a spectrum, and it’s hard to know where you fit, especially when your position isn’t necessarily fixed—and the spectrum keeps expanding. That’s where Rethinking Gender can help: it gives you a toolbox for empathy, understanding, and self-exploration.

Gender History - Antoinette Burton

Antoinette Burton argues that gender history is hiding in plain sight, at work everywhere we look.This volume introduces the field of gender history--its origins, development, reception, recalibrations, and frictions. It offers a set of working definitions of gender as a descriptive category and as a category of historical analysis, tracing the emergence, usage, and applicability of these entwined subjects across a range of times and places since the 1970s.Inevitably political, gender history has taken aim at the broader field of historical narrative by asking who counts as a historical subject, what difference gender makes, and how attention to it subverts reigning assumptions of what power, culture, economics, and identity have been in the past--and what they are today. The book explores how gender analysis has changed interpretations of the histories of slavery, capitalism, migration, and empire. As a field, gender history has been extraordinarily influential in shaping several generations of scholars and students. The fact that its early emphasis on the relationship between masculinity and femininity was part of a larger set of challenges to universal history by poststructuralism, postmodernism, and postcolonialism positions it at the heart of some of the most fractious intellectual debates of the late twentieth and ...

Gender-Critical Feminism - Holly Lawford-Smith

The expectation used to be that men would be masculine and women would be feminine, and this was assumed to come naturally to them in virtue of their biology. That orthodoxy persists today in many parts of society. On this view, sex is gender and gender is sex.A new view of gender has emerged in recent years, a view on which gender is an ''identity'', a way that people feel about themselves in terms of masculinity or femininity, regardless of their sex. On this view, sex is dismissed as unimportant, and gender is made paramount.In the rush to celebrate this new view of gender, we have lost sight of a more powerful challenge to the traditional orthodoxy, namely the feminist sex/gender distinction according to which sex is biological and gender is social. On this view, gender is something done to people on the basis of sex. Women are socialised to conform to norms of femininity (and sanctioned for failure), and masculinity and femininity exist in a hierarchy in which femininity is devalued. This view helps us to understand injustice against women, and what we can do about it.Holly Lawford-Smith introduces and defends gender-critical feminism, a theory and movement that reclaims ...

Heteronormative Bias

Sexuality and Gender Now uses a psychoanalytic approach to arrive at a more informed view of the experience and relationships of those whose sexuality and gender may not align with the heterosexual "norm". This book confronts the heteronormative bias dominant in psychoanalysis, using a combination of theoretical and clinical material, offering an important training tool as well as being relevant for practicing clinicians. The contributors address the shift clinicians must make not only to support their patients in a more informed and non-prejudicial way, but also to recognise their own need for support in developing their clinical thinking. They challenge assumptions, deconstruct theoretical ideas, extend psychoanalytic concepts, and, importantly, show how clinicians can attend to their pre-conscious assumptions. They also explore the issue of erotic transference and countertransference, which, if unaddressed, can limit the possibilities for supporting patients more fully to explore their sexuality and gender. Theories of psychosexuality have tended to become split off from the main field of psychoanalytic thought and practice or read from an assumed moral high ground of heteronormativity. The book specifically addresses this bias and introduces new ways of using psychoanalytic ideas. The contributors advocate a wider and more flexible attitude to sexuality in ...

Gender - Raewyn Connell

How can we understand gender in the contemporary world? What psychological differences now exist between women and men? How are masculinities and femininities made? And how is gender entwined in global politics and debates over trans issues? Raewyn Connell – one of the world's leading scholars in the field – answers these questions and more. Her book provides a sophisticated yet accessible introduction to modern gender studies, covering empirical research from all parts of the world, in addition to theory and politics. As well as introducing the field, Gender provides a powerful contemporary framework for gender analysis with a strong and distinctive global awareness. Highlighting the multidimensional character of gender relations, Connell shows how to link personal life with large-scale organizational structures, and how gender politics changes its form in changing situations. The fourth edition of this influential book brings the statistical picture of gender inequalities up to date, and offers new close-focus case studies of gender research. Like previous editions, it examines gender politics and global power relations, but with added discussion around contemporary issues of intersectionality, populism, gender-based violence, trans struggles and environmental change.
