We are all in the people business. What it takes to lead others is often found in the intangibles – the unseen that has just as much value as what is seen. Without love for other people, we cannot have love for what we do. Purpose and people are always inextricably intertwined.

Job Stress Revisited - Quentin Durand-Moreau

Provides a comprehensive framework for understanding mental health in the workplace Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work offers a critical and much-needed re-evaluation of how job stress is understood, addressed, and managed in modern workplaces. In contrast to popular narratives that individualize stress and recommend surface-level interventions, this resource challenges these assumptions by locating job stress within the very structure and nature of work itself. Drawing on more than a decade of clinical and academic experience, the author underscores how workplace environments and policies—not personal shortcomings—are often the true sources of stress-related mental health issues. Empowering readers to become informed advocates for lasting change, the book offers a multi-dimensional exploration of job stress, informed by biological, epidemiological, and activity-centered approaches. A structured three-part format builds from foundational concepts to actionable solutions, first clearly defining essential concepts—work, health, and their intersections—before delving into critical issues such as burnout, harassment, toxic workplace dynamics, and substance use. In the final section, Durand-Moreau calls for systemic change, advocating for robust policies, workplace inspections, and structural reform rather than temporary fixes. A practical guide for those who seek to make work environments healthier and more equitable, Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work: Challenges prevailing wellness narratives by shifting focus from individuals to systemic workplace factorsIntegrates clinical insights from over 400 work-related mental health casesOffers a comparative international perspective, especially from Canadian and French occupational health systemsCombines theoretical analysis with practical case studies to enhance accessibilityExplores lesser-addressed topics such as doping at work With vivid case studies and accessible illustrations throughout, Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work is essential reading for graduate and professional-level courses such as Occupational Health, Work Psychology, Organizational Behavior, and Public Health Policy. It is ideal for degree programs in Occupational Medicine, Human Resources, Public Health, and Industrial-Organizational Psychology as well as working professionals like union reps, HR, and any worker interested in this topic.

Finite and Infinite Games - James Carse

“There are at least two kinds of games,” states James P. Carse as he begins this extraordinary book. “One could be called finite; the other infinite. A finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.”Finite games are the familiar contests of everyday life; they are played in order to be won, which is when they end. But infinite games are more mysterious. Their object is not winning, but ensuring the continuation of play. The rules may change, the boundaries may change, even the participants may change—as long as the game is never allowed to come to an end. What are infinite games? How do they affect the ways we play our finite games? What are we doing when we play—finitely or infinitely? And how can infinite games affect the ways in which we live our lives? Carse explores these questions with stunning elegance, teasing out of his distinctions a universe of observation and insight, noting where and why and how we play, finitely and infinitely. He surveys our world—from the finite games of the playing field and playing board to the infinite games found in culture and religion—leaving all we think we know illuminated and transformed. Along the way, Carse finds new ways of understanding everything, from how an actress portrays a role to how we engage in sex, from the nature of evil to the nature of science. Finite games, he shows, may offer wealth and status, power and glory, but infinite games offer something far more subtle and far grander. Carse has written a book rich in insight and aphorism. Already an international literary event, Finite and Infinite Games is certain to be argued about and celebrated for years to come. Reading it is the first step in learning to play the infinite game.

Jak zabránit klimatické katastrofě - Bill Gates - audiokniha

Audiokniha: „Gates předkládá vůbec nejsrozumitelnější vysvětlení toho, co je příčinou oteplování naší planety, jak měřit vliv myriády lidských činností na tento ohromující a zdánlivě nevypočitatelný problém, a konečně jak se s tím efektivně vypořádat. Je to nejužitečnější návod na řešení klimatické krize, který jsem kdy viděl.“ — Fortune O knize Nemusíte být klimatologové, abyste měli povědomí o oteplování planety a souvisejících jevech: o obdobích extrémních veder, bouří, stoupání hladiny moří, povodních, následných hladomorech a migračních vlnách. Bill Gates nás však vyzývá, že není na místě propadat strachu a bezmoci, ale naopak nahlížet na současný stav jako na příležitost postavit se pragmaticky výzvě a projít jako lidstvo další energetickou a technologickou revolucí. V knize vás seznámí s plánem snížit do roku 2050 emise skleníkových plynů ze současných 51 miliard tun ročně na nulu. Jde o velkolepý plán, ale nereálný. Gates jasně vysvětluje všechny zásadní aspekty problematiky – jednotlivé zdroje emisí, možné alternativy, technologie, které již existují, i slibné inovace, jež jsou teprve na obzoru. Nečekejte přitom výčitky ani zmar. I díky dlouholeté spolupráci s předními vědci, odborníky a politiky neztrácí Gates naději a přesvědčení, že společným úsilím klimatické katastrofě zabráníme. Mimo jiné se dozvíte: - Jaký je podíl jednotlivých odvětví lidské činnosti na emisích skleníkových plynů a že dopravě překvapivě náleží až čtvrtá příčka. - Proč musíme při vyčíslení skutečné efektivity zdrojů energie počítat s tzv. zelenými příplatky. - O vývoji báječných nových technologií včetně přímého zachytávání uhlíku ze vzduchu (DAC) nebo bezemisní výrobě cementu a plastů. - Jaké průlomy potřebujeme pro výrobu, transport a skladování elektřiny. - O krizových scénářích pro případ náhlého uvolnění metanu ze dna moří. - Jakou roli hrají v proměně klimatu krávy a mangrovové porosty. - Co přesně může pro svět udělat každý z nás a co naši volení zastupitelé a vlády. „Pokud se nevzdáme velkého cíle – dostat se na nulu – dokážeme katastrofu odvrátit. Můžeme zachovat únosné klima pro každého, pomoci stovkám milionů lidí žít hodnotný život a zachránit planetu pro příští generace.“ — Bill Gates Napsali o knize „Z přehledného vysvětlení vědeckých aspektů změny klimatu je patrná Gatesova odbornost. Řešení, která nastiňuje, jsou pragmatická a spočívají na prozíravém ekonomickém uvažování. Přestože se nevybývá tvrdým pravdám, kterým musíme při změnách klimatu čelit, zůstává Gates optimistou a věří, že máme možnost vyhnout se úplné klimatické katastrofě.“ — Science „Bill Gates má plán, jak zachránit svět. Přestože uznává, že jde o náročný úkol a že bude třeba zásadně změnit způsob výroby, pěstování, dopravy, klimatizace i vytápění, tvrdí, že je možné provést rozsáhlou transformaci a zároveň zachovat životní styl v zemích s vysokými příjmy a pokračovat v odstraňování chudoby miliard lidí.“ — Wired „Spojení chladného realismu s čísly podloženým optimismem je v knize o nejvážnějším problému lidstva tak osvěžující! Bill Gates důrazně připomíná, že pokud se skutečně chceme pustit do řešení krize, musíme maximálně využít jediný přírodní zdroj, jenž máme k dispozici v neomezeném množství – génia lidského ducha.“ — The Economist O autorovi Bill Gates (* 1955) je technolog, byznysový lídr a filantrop. V roce 1975 se svým kamarádem z dětství Paulem Allenem založil společnost Microsoft. Zároveň je spoluzakladatelem a předsedou Nadace Billa a Melindy Gatesových. Jeho projekt Breaktrough Energy se věnuje zavádění čisté energie a používání technologií, které neovlivňují změnu klimatu. Je otcem tří dětí.

The Beauty of Games - Frank Lantz

How games create beauty and meaning, and how we can use them to explore the aesthetics of thought.Are games art? This question is a dominant mode of thinking about games and play in the twenty-first century, but it is fundamentally the wrong question. Instead, Frank Lantz proposes in his provocative new book, The Beauty of Games, that we think about games and how they create meaning through the lens of the aesthetic. We should think of games, he writes, the same way we think of literature, theater, or music—as a form that ranges from deep and profound to easy and disposable, and everything in between. Games are the aesthetic form of interactive systems, a set of possibilities connected by rules of cause and effect. In this book, Lantz analyzes games from chess to poker to tennis to understand how games create beauty and evoke a deeper meaning. He suggests that we think of games not only as hyper-modern objects but also as forms within the ancient context of artistic production, encompassing all of the nebulous and ephemeral qualities of the aesthetic experience.

Bill Gates - Tim Schwab - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Důkladná investigace Nadace Billa a Melindy Gatesových, která odhaluje, jak Bill Gates využívá filantropii k uplatňování politické moci bez odpovědnosti. Bill Gates se díky svým filantropickým aktivitám proměnil z technologického padoucha v jednoho z nejobdivovanějších lidí na světě. I když nedávné rozvodové řízení a četná obvinění z nevhodného chování poskvrnily jeho veřejný obraz, jen málokdo zpochybňuje dobročinnost jeho nadace, bezmezně obdivované za to, jak vynakládá miliardy dolarů na zachraňování životů chudých obyvatel naší planety. Jak ale Tim Schwab ve své odvážné investigaci ukazuje, Gates je stále tím, čím býval: monopolistou přesvědčeným o své neomylnosti a odhodlaným vnucovat všem ostatním své představy, svá řešení a své vůdcovství. Žádný nezištný filantrop, nýbrž obchodník s mocí, chytrý inovátor, jenž dokázal proměnit extrémní bohatství v obrovský politický vliv a přesvědčit mnoho lidí k tomu, aby jeho činy velebili, nikoli zpochybňovali. Audiokniha Tima Schwaba nabourává oslnivou aureolu, která až příliš dlouho chránila nejmocnější charitativní organizaci světa před dohledem veřejnosti, a ukazuje, jak si Bill Gates za své miliardy koupil ohromující kontrolu nad veřejnou politikou, soukromými trhy, vědeckým výzkumem a zpravodajskými médii. Tim Schwab je investigativní novinář sídlící ve Washingtonu, DC.

Zpravodaj České televize navštěvoval Gazu více než deset let, může proto zasvěceně, ale především srozumitelně popsal složitou a bolestnou historii Gazy. „Odolnost a vzdor má Gaza v kulturní a historické DNA. Prošla tudy stará i nová impéria. Ničily ji války, hladomory, zemětřesení i mor. Vždy ale vstala z popela,“ píše s empatií i s přesahem do současnosti.

Heritage, Memory and Identity in Postcolonial Board Games

The Revenge of Gaia - James Lovelock

James Lovelock''s bestselling The Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earth is Fighting Back - and How we can Still Save Humanity is a dire warning against the unchecked growth of civilization. ''Despite all our efforts to retreat sustainably, we may be unable to prevent a global decline into a chaotic world ruled by brutal warlords on a devastated Earth...'' For thousands of years, humans have exploited the planet without counting the cost. Now Gaia, the living Earth, is fighting back. As the polar icecaps shrink and the global temperature rises, we approach the point of no return. Sustainable development, Lovelock argues, is no longer possible, and the only open to us may be a ''sustainable retreat''. This is the one book you must read to find out what is happening, how bad it will get - and how we can survive. ''The most important book for decades'' Andrew Marr ''The most important book ever to be published on the environmental crisis ... Lovelock will go down in history as the scientist who changed our view of the Earth'' John Gray, Independent ''Truly terrifying ... Lovelock''s arguments carry more conviction than anyone else''s now writing'' Peter Forbes, Daily Mail James Lovelock is the author of more than 200 scientific papers and the originator of the Gaia Hypothesis (now Gaia Theory). He has written several books on the subject, including Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth, The Ages of Gaia and The Vanishing Face of Gaia as well as an autobiography, Homage to Gaia. In September 2005 Prospect magazine named him as one of the world''s top 100 global public intellectuals.

On the Pleasures of Living in Gaza - Mohammed Omer Almoghayer

Beyond the headlines of destruction and despair, discover the untold story of Gaza''s humanity—its joys, resilience, and vibrant community spirit, as captured by a native son. Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza has plunged more than two million Palestinians into a ceaseless cycle of violence and deprivation. Despite the outrage that Israel’s aggression has fanned, two opposing tropes about those who inhabit the Strip endure. For the minority backing Israel’s actions, the Palestinians of Gaza are often seen as little more than terrorists. For many on the other side, they are perpetual victims, powerless and tragic. Each characterization dehumanizes Gaza’s people. In this book, Mohammed Omer Almoghayer, born and raised in southern Gaza, presents a necessary corrective: What the news reports have rarely shown are the ways in which, prior to Israel’s onslaught, the people of Gaza rose above their hardship to enjoy the simple pleasures of human existence. While in no way diminishing the horrors hurled at the Strip since October 7, or the prior suffering of those forced to live in what was effectively an open prison, Omer Almoghayer here tells that story. On the Pleasures of Living in Gaza takes the reader on a tour of a most misunderstood and hidden territory, allowing us to discover the community spirit, the enduring family ties, the festivals and pastimes, and the creativity and resourcefulness of people, who, in lives now tragically lost, refused to surrender to hopelessness, snatching moments of joy in the most difficult of circumstances. More than ever, it is vital that we recognize the humanity of people referred to by Israel’s defense minister as “animals,” and by news organizations around the world by bald numbers of nameless dead. With the sensitivity and insight available to a native Gazan, Mohammed Omer’s magnificent book parts the smoke and dust to show us the richness of a way of life Israel has now destroyed.

Light in Gaza

Imagining the future of Gaza beyond the cruelties of occupation and Apartheid, Light in Gaza is a powerful contribution to understanding Palestinian experience.Gaza, home to two million people, continues to face suffocating conditions imposed by Israel. This distinctive anthology imagines what the future of Gaza could be, while reaffirming the critical role of Gaza in Palestinian identity, history, and struggle for liberation.Light in Gaza is a seminal, moving and wide-ranging anthology of Palestinian writers and artists. It constitutes a collective effort to organize and center Palestinian voices in the ongoing struggle. As political discourse shifts toward futurism as a means of reimagining a better way of living, beyond the violence and limitations of colonialism, Light in Gaza is an urgent and powerful intervention into an important political moment.

Gaza - Jean-Pierre Filiu

Through its millennium-long existence, Gaza has often been bitterly disputed, yet enduringly neglected. Squeezed between the Negev and Sinai deserts on the one hand and the Mediterranean Sea on the other, Gaza was contested by the Pharaohs, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Fatimids, Mamluks, Crusaders and Ottomans. In 1917, the British Empire fought for months to conquer Gaza, before establishing its mandate for Palestine. In 1948, 200,000 Palestinians sought refuge in Gaza, a marginal area wanted by neither Israel nor Egypt. Palestinian nationalism grew there, and Gaza has since found itself at the heart of Palestinian history. Gaza is where the fedayeen movement arose from the ruins of Arab nationalism; where the 1967 Israeli occupation was repeatedly challenged, culminating in the 1987 intifada; where the dream of Palestinian statehood appeared shattered by the 2007 split between Fatah and Hamas; and from where, in 2023, history’s worst attack on Israel was launched, leading to the worst war ever waged against the Palestinians.Jean-Pierre Filiu’s book was the first comprehensive history of Gaza to be published in any language. This new, updated edition covers events since 2011, including Gaza’s renewed tragic centrality to world politics and security since October 2023.

Jak zabránit klimatické katastrofě - Bill Gates

Nemusíte být klimatologové, abyste věděli o oteplování planety a jeho důsledcích: obdobích extrémních veder, bouří, stoupající hladině moří, povodních, hladomorech či migračních vlnách. Bill Gates však vyzývá, abychom nepropadali strachu, ale nahlíželi na současnou situaci jako na příležitost postavit se výzvě a projít další energetickou a technologickou revolucí.V knize představuje plán, jak do roku 2050 snížit emise skleníkových plynů ze současných 51 miliard tun ročně na nulu. Gates jasně vysvětluje jednotlivé zdroje emisí, možné alternativy, technologie, které už existují, i slibné inovace, jež jsou zatím na obzoru. Díky dlouholeté spolupráci s vědci, odborníky a politiky nabízí pragmatické a nadějné řešení bez moralizování a výčitek.Mimo jiné se dozvíte: jaký je podíl jednotlivých odvětví na emisích skleníkových plynů (a proč doprava není na prvním místě), proč je nutné počítat s tzv. zelenými příplatky, o nových technologiích, např. přímém zachytávání uhlíku (DAC) nebo bezemisní výrobě cementu a plastů, jaké průlomy potřebujeme v oblasti výroby, transportu a skladování elektřiny, o krizových scénářích spojených s uvolněním metanu ze dna moří, jakou roli hrají krávy a mangrovové porosty, co může pro změnu udělat každý z nás i naši volení zástupci. „Pokud se nevzdáme velkého cíle – dostat se na nulu – dokážeme katastrofu odvrátit. Můžeme zachovat únosné klima pro každého, pomoci stovkám milionů lidí žít hodnotný život a zachránit planetu pro příští generace.“ — Bill GatesNapsali o knize: „Gates předkládá nejsrozumitelnější vysvětlení příčin oteplování planety, vlivu lidské činnosti a možností, jak se s tím vypořádat. Je to nejužitečnější návod na řešení klimatické krize, který jsem kdy viděl.“ — Fortune „Z přehledného vysvětlení vědeckých aspektů změny klimatu je patrná Gatesova odbornost. Řešení jsou pragmatická, založená na ekonomickém uvažování. Přestože neuhýbá tvrdým pravdám, zůstává optimistou.“ — Science „Bill Gates má plán, jak zachránit svět. Ukazuje, že rozsáhlá transformace je možná a zároveň lze zachovat životní styl v zemích s vysokými příjmy i odstraňovat chudobu miliard lidí.“ — Wired „Spojení realismu s čísly podloženým optimismem je v knize o nejvážnějším problému lidstva osvěžující! Gates připomíná, že musíme využít jediný neomezený zdroj – génia lidského ducha.“ — The Economist O autorovi: Bill Gates (*1955) je technolog, byznysový lídr a filantrop. V roce 1975 spoluzaložil Microsoft, je předsedou Nadace Billa a Melindy Gatesových a stojí za projektem Breakthrough Energy, který se věnuje čisté energii a technologiím neovlivňujícím klima. Je otcem tří dětí.

The Most Beautiful Job in the World - Giulia Mensitieri

“A powerful exposé of Parisian haute couture” – Book of the Week, Times Higher EducationFashion is one of the most powerful industries in the world, accounting for 6% of global consumption and growing steadily. Since the 1980s and the birth of the neoliberal economy, it has emerged as the glittering face of capitalism, bringing together prestige, power and beauty and occupying a central place in media and consumer fantasies. Yet the fashion industry, which claims to offer highly desirable job opportunities, relies significantly on job instability, not just in outsourced garment production but at the very heart of its creative production of luxury.Based on an in-depth investigation involving stylists, models, designers, hairdressers, make-up artists, photographers and interns, anthropologist Giulia Mensitieri goes behind fashion’s glamorous facade to explore the lived realities of working in the industry. This challenging book lays bare the working conditions of ‘the most beautiful job in the world,’ showing that exploitation isn’t confined to sweatshops abroad or sexual harassment of models, but exists at the very heart of the powerful symbolic and economic centre of fashion.
