A masterpiece in intercultural training!Exploring Culture brings Geert Hofstede''s five dimensions of national culture to life. Gert Jan Hofstede and his co-authors Paul Pedersen and Geert Hofstede introduce synthetic cultures, the ten "pure" cultural types derived from the extremes of the five dimensions. The result is a playful book of practice that is firmly rooted in theory. Part light, part serious, but always thought-provoking, this unique book approaches training through the three-part process of building awareness, knowledge, and skills. It leads the reader through the first two components with more than 75 activities, dialogues, stories, and incidents. The Synthetic Culture Laboratory and two full simulations fulfill the skill-building component. Exploring Culture is suitable for students, trainers, coaches and educators. It can be used for individual study or as a text, and it serves as an excellent partner to Geert Hofstede''s popular Cultures and Organizations.

'A marvel of clarity, fluency, and (Morris's favourite word in her final days) kindness.' The Sunday Times'A measured and elegant biography that Morris aficionados will find fascinating.' The TimesThe first full account of a truly remarkable life. When Jan Morris passed away in 2020, she was considered one of Britain's best-loved writers. The author of Venice, Pax Britannica, Conundrum, and more than fifty other books, her work was known for its observational genius, lyricism, and humour, and had earned her a passionate readership around the world. Morris's life was no less fascinating than her oeuvre. Born in 1926, she spent her childhood amidst Oxford's Gothic beauty and later participated in military service in Italy and the Middle East, before embarking on a career as an internationally feted foreign correspondent. From being the only journalist to join the first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953 to covering the trial of Adolf Eichmann, Morris's reportage spanned many of the twentieth century's defining moments. However, public success masked a private dilemma that was only resolved when she transitioned genders in the 1960s, becoming renowned as a transgender pioneer.

Born in 1926, she spent her childhood amidst Oxford’s Gothic beauty and later participated in military service in Italy and the Middle East, before becoming an internationally fêted foreign correspondent. However, public success masked a private dilemma that was only resolved when she transitioned gender in the late sixties.

Here, for the first time, the many strands of Morris’s rich and at times paradoxical life are brought together.Â

"Bregje Hofstede is an extraordinary writer."—Rutger Bregmans, author of Utopia for Realists and Humankind: A Hopeful HistoryJenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing meets Matthew Walker’s Why We Sleep in this fascinating deep-dive into the science and history of sleep.In Search of Sleep is both a self-help manual for insomniacs, and a sweeping critique of the hustle culture that blinds us to the real reasons we lie awake at night: from politics to pandemics to poverty.Amsterdam-based writer Bregje Hofstede struggled with insomnia for 10 years, but advice from doctors and books always felt lacking in perspective. Wasn’t insomnia more than just an individual struggle? Might it also be a rational reaction to our increasingly turbulent world?Unlike the vast majority of books about sleep, In Search of Sleep examines insomnia as both a physical and psychological condition and an early warning sign that something is off in society. As Hofstede points out, studies show that insomnia increased during the pandemic and that people with less money sleep the worst. She also shows that sleeplessness is tied inextricably to loneliness, while meaningful relationships can provide the security we need to slumber.Interweaving neuroscience, cultural anthropology, history, and interviews with experts, In Search of Sleep ...

This new book explores the historical development of mediation (conflict resolution) from a cultural and existential perspective, and considers the cultural challenges involved for a mediator.The author, Monica Hanaway, has been mediating disputes across cultures for several years. She sets the scene for exploring the role culture plays in conflict and its resolution by explaining what mediation is and what we understand by the word ‘culture’. From there she explores what mediators need to keep in mind when considering culture in the context of mediation. Within this, she covers such topics as the merits of using interpreters, and the pros and cons of using mediators from the same culture as the disputants. The final section of the book comments on what mediation professional and training bodies need to do to raise the profile of the cultural aspects in conflict.Written by an experienced practitioner, Exploring the Role of Culture in Mediation will be of particular interest to all mediators, coaches and psychologists, those interested in applying philosophy to resolving conflict, and those considering mediation.

Jan Paul je výrazným solitérem současného českého malířství. V galerii představil výběr z obrazů, které vytvořil po roce 2004, kdy se prožitek z doprovázení umírající matky hluboce vepsal do jeho myšlení i přístupu k tvorbě. Autor se rozhodl malovat prsty. Obrazy figurální, zabývající se tíživými tématy života, i díla nefigurativní, v nichž světlo symbolizuje naději, vyjadřují duchovní celek ve snaze konfrontovat pomíjivé a věcné. Pro jejich obsahovou výstižnost i specifické světelné podání autor obrazy nepojmenovává. Další autorovu polohu najdeme v triptychu Vzkříšení. Triptych, zamýšlený jako oltářní obraz, začal vznikat koncem roku 2010, a autor ho dokončil koncem roku 2020. Jeho smyslem je vyjádření vztahu a úcty nejen ke Kristu a jeho vykupitelskému dílu, ale k celému křesťanství, které významně ovlivnilo světové myšlení a kulturu. Tento postoj podstatně ovlivňuje po roce 2004 jeho malířskou tvorbu, v níž se zabývá existenciálními tématy. Fyzická konečnost člověka však pro něho není otázkou definitivnosti lidské existence, ale východiskem k tomu, co člověka přesahuje. Triptych Vzkříšení tak zcela logicky právě toto téma vyjadřuje.text: Jan Kapusta, Jan Kříž, Jan Paul fotografie: Martin Polák

Malíř, výtvarný kritik, a prozaik Jan Paul vydává novou sbírku povídek nazvanou Mrkací panenka. Po své literární prvotině Deník pošetilého milence (2006) a knize O štěstí v umírání (2011) se v novém titulu zabývá tématem lásky, nenávisti a smrti. Autor předkládá čtenáři příběhy současných lidí vystavených těžkým životním situacím. Jsou to lidé mnoha profesí, různosti věku i odlišné sexuální orientace, kteří se často ocitají v mezních a tragických okolnostech života. Autor líčí s jistou dávkou soucitu i pochopení příběhy člověka ve chvílích váhání i vážných rozhodnutí, která nezvratně změní či v některých případech dokonce ukončí jeho život. Paula zajímá nevyhnutelná osudovost existenciálně dramatických chvil, přičemž nevyhnutelná je tato osudovost do té míry, do jaké protagonisté povídek sami svými životy a rozhodováním určují a ovlivňují vývoj událostí, v jejichž pasti se nakonec ocitnou. Bezdomovec, státní úředník, podnikatel, důchodce, šestnáctiletý mladík, žena novináře a mnozí jiní jsou aktéři povídek, které emocionálně vypjaté okolnosti života vystavily náročné osobní zkoušce. Jan Paul s literární imaginací i realistickou přesvědčivostí popisuje osobní, partnerské, a společenské konflikty, na jejichž konci sice čeká hrdiny povídek smrt fyzická, profesní i duchovní, nicméně přesah knihy zřetelně odkazuje k naději.

Geert Mak spent the year 1999 criss-crossing the continent, tracing the history of Europe from Verdun to Berlin, St Petersburg to Auschwitz, Kiev to Srebrenica. He set off in search of evidence and witnesses, looking to define the condition of Europe at the verge of a new millennium. The result is mesmerising: Mak's rare double talent as a sharp-eyed journalist and a hugely imaginative historian makes In Europe a dazzling account of that journey, full of diaries, newspaper reports and memoirs, and the voices of prominent figures and unknown players; from the grandson of Kaiser Wilhelm II to Adriana Warno in Poland, with her holiday job at the gates of the camp at Birkenau. But Mak is above all an observer. He describes what he sees at places that have become Europe's well-springs of memory, where history is written into the landscape. At Ypres he hears the blast of munitions from the Great War that are still detonated twice a day. In Warsaw he finds the point where the tram rails that led to the Jewish ghetto come to a dead end in a city park. And in an abandoned creche near Chernobyl, where tiny pairs of shoes still stand ...

This is a book about what many teachers know but are increasingly being prevented from talking about: that real education always involves a risk. The risk is there because, as W. B. Yeats has put it, education is not about filling a bucket but about lighting a fire. It is there because students are not to be seen as objects to be moulded and disciplined, but as subjects of action and responsibility. The Beautiful Risk of Education is organised around a critical discussion of seven key educational concepts: creativity, communication, teaching, learning, emancipation, democracy, and virtuosity. By opposing the risk aversion that characterises many contemporary educational policies and practices, Gert J.J. Biesta makes a strong argument for giving risk a central place in our educational endeavours and brings risk taking to the forefront of a critical pedagogical practice.

A brief but engaging look at the importance of trust. Gert Tinggaard Svendsen explores how to cultivate this elusive feeling—and why developing trust is so important for maintaining a happy, stable, and economically sound society. Without it, societies become more corrupt and legal systems cannot guarantee justice. Why do Nordic countries like Denmark score so highly in trust and happiness levels and so low in levels of corruption—and how can other countries replicate these stats for the good of their people? Higher levels of trust often translate to more cooperation and social responsibility, advantages in economic growth and social stability, and happier workplaces. Tinggard Svendsen's research on trust emphasizes that if we want to build trust, we must minimize control. The fewer resources we expend on surveillance and monitoring, the more resources we can use to improve competition, advance research, and nurture innovation. In Reflections, a series copublished with Denmark's Aarhus University Press, scholars deliver 60-page reflections on key concepts. These books present unique insights on a wide range of topics that entertain and enlighten readers with exciting discoveries and new perspectives.

But embarking on this epic voyage took him to the brink of his sanity, wiped his funds and tested the relationships he held dear.Over the years he faced grave danger, from encounters with drunken armed soldiers to life-threatening illness and even traversing the high seas, with wild waves destabilising the cargo ship he''d hitched a ride on.

Life becomes complicated without the luxury of flying.Yet after years of challenges and milestones, Thor achieved something no other human ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Behind every traditional type of cheese there is a fascinating story. By examining the role of the cheesemaker throughout world history and by understanding a few basic principles of cheese science and technology, we can see how different cheeses have been shaped by and tailored to their surrounding environment, as well as defined by their social and cultural context. Cheese and Culture endeavors to advance our appreciation of cheese origins by viewing human history through the eyes of a cheese scientist.There is also a larger story to be told, a grand narrative that binds all cheeses together into a single history that started with the discovery of cheese making and that is still unfolding to this day. This book reconstructs that 9000-year story based on the often fragmentary information that we have available. Cheese and Culture embarks on a journey that begins in the Neolithic Age and winds its way through the ensuing centuries to the present. This tour through cheese history intersects with some of the pivotal periods in human prehistory and ancient, classical, medieval, renaissance, and modern history that have shaped western civilization, for these periods also shaped the lives of cheesemakers and the diverse cheeses that they ...

ELIOT PRIZELONGLISTED FOR THE CHRISTOPHER EWART-BIGGS MEMORIAL PRIZEI guess I must have been in two mindsabout the new dayas the daylight godsbegan to march in straight linesgoing I don't know where. from 'The Spare Room'In his first collection for more than a decade, Tom Paulin revisits themes of place, occupation, conflict and legacy, primarily in the context of his native Northern Ireland. Stories and memories, even histories, are shown to be both frail and persistent, troubling and vital. There is a powerful austerity in play as he sets aside the rhetorical force and linguistic dazzle for which he is renowned, to speak simply of later life and the losses it brings: 'if only some idea / could find its way / through enemy territory / then I'd at last begin / to look up at the sky.' As outward-looking as ever, he also includes here intimate and resonant versions from Brecht and Ronsard, and from the contemporary Palestinian poet, Walid Khazendar.
