This profound exploration of the marvels and limitations of the human mind has had a lasting impact on how we see ourselves. The godfather of behavioural science ... his steely analysis of the human mind and its many flaws remains perhaps the most useful guide to remaining sane and steady Sunday Times

In Black and White - Alexandra Wilson

**PAPERBACK FEATURES NEW CONTENT. NOW WITH AFTERWORD AND READING GROUP QUESTIONS** A compelling and courageous memoir forcing the legal profession to confront uncomfortable truths about race and class. Alexandra Wilson is a bold and vital voice. This is a book that urgently needs to be read by everyone inside, and outside, the justice system. THE SECRET BARRISTER A riveting book in the best tradition of courtroom dramas but from the fresh perspective of a young female mixed-race barrister. That Alexandra is often mistaken for the defendant shows how important her presence at the bar really is. MATT RUDD, THE SUNDAY TIMES MAGAZINEAlexandra Wilson was a teenager when her dear family friend Ayo was stabbed on his way home from football. Ayo s death changed Alexandra. She felt compelled to enter the legal profession in search of answers. As a junior criminal and family law barrister, Alexandra finds herself navigating a world and a set of rules designed by a privileged few. A world in which fellow barristers sigh with relief when a racist judge retires: I ve got a black kid today and he would have had no hope . In her debut book, In Black and White, Alexandra re-creates the tense courtroom scenes, the heart-breaking meetings with teenage clients, and the moments of frustration and triumph that make up a young barrister s life. Alexandra shows us how it feels to defend someone who hates the colour of your skin, or someone you suspect is guilty. We see what it is like for children coerced into county line drug deals and the damage that can be caused when we criminalise teenagers. Alexandra s account of what she has witnessed as a young mixed-race barrister is in equal parts shocking, compelling, confounding and powerful. An inspirational, clear-eyed account of life as a junior barrister is made all the more exceptional by the determination, passion, humanity and drive of the author. Anyone interested in seeing how the law really works should read it. SARAH LANGFORD This is the story of a young woman who overcame all the obstacles a very old profession could throw at her, and she survived, with her integrity intact. BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH Wilson offers a role model for those who still think the law is for other people, and shows the way for English courts to become ever less Dickensian.

Portrét Alexandra - Jonáš Jasen

Ako kvapky vody sú poviedky, z ktorých pozostáva Portrét Alexandra. Každá zrkadlí vlastný príbeh, ale spolu vytvárajú prúd spoločného plynutia času od konca devätnásteho storočia až po súčasnosť. Čas vo vnútri jednotlivých textov sa neraz skrúti do protipohybu, vráti na scénu vedľajšiu postavu alebo inak zmieša prítomnosť s minulosťou — barónsku nadradenosť s tajomstvom falzifikátu, víťaza prvých motocyklových pretekov s jeho poslednou milenkou, podvedeného emigranta s budúcim premiérom či amputovanú nohu s Van Goghovým odrezaným uchom.To hlavné je však rozprávanie o ubiehaní Alexandrovho života, ktorý koreňmi čiastočne siaha do vymretého aristokratického rodu, on sám je však priemerný človek dneška, ktorý nič významné nedosiahol, hoci sa o to pokúšal. Aj preto nostalgická konfrontácia toho akí sme boli, o čom sme snívali, s tým, čo sme urobili a kam sme dospeli, je v knihe neustále prítomná.Portrét Alexandra je fragmentárny neromán o pominuteľnosti a o náhodách, ktoré sa stávajú osudom. Je mozaikou skomponovanou z rozhodujúcich okamihov Alexandrovho života, ktorým často nerozumel, keď sa mu diali, z jeho najintímnejších spomienok, ale aj z toho, čo sám nezažil, z paralelných príbehov ľudí, ktorí mu skrížili cestu. Všetky postavy v knihe vlastne tvoria Portrét Alexandra. „Tých na druhom brehu rovnako pri sebe cítim ako tých, ktorých vidím očami,“ hovorí príznačne jeden z Alexandrových predkov, potulný maliar Benický.

When they heard about it, they became anxious to see the stranger with the wonderful voice. Peter Rabbit followed him around just to hear him fool others by making his voice sound like theirs.

Omaha, 1930. When ex-cop-turned-PI Jim Beely murders the man who assaulted his fourteen-year-old daughter, the last person he wants to see is local crooked cop Frank Tvrdik. Luckily, Frank isnÂ’t interested in the lifeless body in JimÂ’s car. Frank has a proposition: heÂ’ll make the dead man disappear if Jim helps take down Elmer Kobb, who is vying for city commissioner and willing to backstab anyone who gets in his way.Soon, Jim and Frank are sucked into a seedy world of crime and corruption, where no one is safe and nothing is what it seems. Then Jim is violently attacked and one of his operatives turns up dead within the span of twelve hours, and his search for the truth yields a web of lies and a mounting death toll. As he and Frank are pulled deeper into the cityÂ’s dark underbelly and its absurd political machinations, Jim begins to question everything he knows about Omaha and his place in it.In her moody, ferocious, and darkly funny follow-up to PIckard County Atlas, a novel Tana French called a slow-burning beauty of a book, the native Nebraskan Chris Harding Thornton mines Omaha s sordid past, melding fact and fiction into an unforgettable tale of danger and deceit. Little Underworld asks: What does it mean to be good, and what is left for those of us who arenÂ’t?

Teaching Creative Thinking - Bill Lucas, Ellen Spencer

Teaching Creative Thinking: Developing Learners Who Generate Ideas and Can Think Critically defines and demystifies the essence of creative thinking, and offers action-oriented and research-informed suggestions as to how it can best be developed in learners. Where once it was enough to know and do things, young people now need more than subject knowledge in order to thrive: they need capabilities. Teaching Creative Thinking is the first title in the three-part Pedagogy for a Changing World series, founded upon Lucas and Spencer s philosophy of dispositional teaching a pedagogical approach which aims to cultivate in learners certain dispositions that evidence suggests are going to be valuable to them both at school and in later life. A key capability is creative thinking, and, in 2021, one of the guardians of global comparative standards, PISA, is recognising its importance by making creative thinking the innovative assessment domain to supplement their testing of 15-year-olds core capabilities in English, maths and science. Creative thinkers are inquisitive, collaborative, imaginative, persistent and disciplined and schools which foster these habits of mind in learners need to be creative in engaging children and young people by embedding creativity into their everyday educational experiences. In this extensive enquiry into the nature and nurture of creative thinking, the authors explore the effectiveness of various pedagogical approaches including problem-based learning, growth mindset, playful experimentation and the classroom as a learning community and provide a wealth of tried-and-tested classroom strategies that will boost learners critical and creative thinking skills. The book is structured in an easy-to-access format, combining a comprehensive listing of practical ideas to stimulate lesson planning with expert guidance on integrating them into your practice, followed by plenty of inventive suggestions as to how learners progress can be assessed and tracked along the way by both the pupil and the teacher. The authors then go further to offer exemplars of success by presenting case studies of schools innovations in adopting these approaches, and dedicate a chapter to dispelling any pressing doubts that teachers may have by exposing the potential pitfalls and offering advice on how to avoid them. Venturing beyond the classroom setting, Teaching Creative Thinking also delves into the ways in which a school can work towards the provision of co-curricular experiences such as partnering with a range of external community groups and better engage its leadership team and pupils parents with the idea of creative thinking in order to support learners with opportunities to grow. The authors offer many examples which will inspire schools to do just this, and collate these ideas into building a framework for learning that equips young people in schools today with the twenty-first century skills and capabilities that will enable them to thrive in the workforce of tomorrow. Replete with research-led insight and ready-to-use strategies, Teaching Creative Thinking is a powerful call to action and a practical handbook for all teachers and leaders, in both primary and secondary settings, who want to embed a capabilities approach in their schools.

Alexandra Reinwarth Všichni mi můžete… Hlavně, že mně je skvěle! Provedení: Tištěná kniha

Všichni chtějí, abyste byli hodní, ochotní, spolehliví. Vyhovující. Nápomocní. Ticho trpící. Tak dlouho, až z toho jednoho dne prasknete. Alexandra Reinwarth to udělala jinak – řekla „ne“, když to bylo třeba, a přestala se bát, co si o ní kdo pomyslí. V knize Všichni mi můžete… Hlavně, že mně je skvěle otevřeně mluví o situacích, kdy bychom si zasloužili medaili jen za to, že jsme se nerozbrečeli. A místo další rady, jak to „vydržet“, nabízí nový přístup: vykašlat se na to . S nadhledem, humorem a chutí do života. Konečně zjistíte, co všechno si můžete s klidným srdcem pustit k vodě – od nepohodlných džín až po lidi, kteří Vám neustále kradou energii. Nečekejte ezoteriku, ani další motivační výkřiky o tom, jak „být lepší verzí sebe sama“. Tohle je drsná, lidská a k smíchu i pláči upřímná knížka o tom, že občas stačí přestat – a dýchá se líp. Pro koho je kniha určena Pro všechny, kteří mají pocit, že neustále žijí pro druhé. Kteří už nechtějí omlouvat svůj čas, svoje rozhodnutí a svoje nálady. Pro ty, kteří si chtějí dovolit žít podle sebe – a nebát se přitom být upřímní. Proč si tuto knihu přečíst Protože už možná nechcete být tou, která „všechno zvládne“, nebo tím, kdo „to přece nějak udělá“. Protože možná potřebujete slyšet, že i když na všechno kašlete, může Vám být skvěle. A to je naprosto v pořádku. Co ti kniha přinese Uleví se Vám. Opravdu. Naučíte se říkat „ne“ – laskavě, ale jasně. Přestanete si vyčítat, že neplníte cizí očekávání. A konečně si dovolíte cítit se dobře – bez výčitek . Doporučení nakladatele Tahle kniha nás zasáhla přímo – do nervů, do bránice, do srdce. Pokud jste taky roky cvičení v tom, jak být milí, výkonní a nezatěžující, máte právo to změnit. Všichni mi můžete není rebelie. Je to návrat k sobě. A začíná jednou jednoduchou větou: „Tohle už dělat nebudu.“ - Michaela a Václav Kazdovi Úryvek z knihy „Kathrin?“ „Ano?“ „Jdi do prdele.“ Nic velkého? Pro mě ano. V ten moment jsem byla Jana z Arku, třímetrová, nesená orchestrální hudbou, s pončem vlajícím jako praporem vítězství. Ne nad Kathrin. Ale nad svou vlastní potřebou, aby mě všichni měli rádi.

Všichni chtějí, abyste byli hodní, ochotní, spolehliví. Vyhovující. Nápomocní. Ticho trpící. Tak dlouho, až z toho jednoho dne prasknete. Alexandra Reinwarth to udělala jinak – řekla „ne“, když to bylo třeba, a přestala se bát, co si o ní kdo pomyslí. V knize Všichni mi můžete… Hlavně, že mně je skvěle otevřeně mluví o situacích, kdy bychom si zasloužili medaili jen za to, že jsme se nerozbrečeli. A místo další rady, jak to „vydržet“, nabízí nový přístup: vykašlat se na to . S nadhledem, humorem a chutí do života. Konečně zjistíte, co všechno si můžete s klidným srdcem pustit k vodě – od nepohodlných džín až po lidi, kteří Vám neustále kradou energii. Nečekejte ezoteriku, ani další motivační výkřiky o tom, jak „být lepší verzí sebe sama“. Tohle je drsná, lidská a k smíchu i pláči upřímná knížka o tom, že občas stačí přestat – a dýchá se líp. Pro koho je kniha určena Pro všechny, kteří mají pocit, že neustále žijí pro druhé. Kteří už nechtějí omlouvat svůj čas, svoje rozhodnutí a svoje nálady. Pro ty, kteří si chtějí dovolit žít podle sebe – a nebát se přitom být upřímní. Proč si tuto knihu přečíst Protože už možná nechcete být tou, která „všechno zvládne“, nebo tím, kdo „to přece nějak udělá“. Protože možná potřebujete slyšet, že i když na všechno kašlete, může Vám být skvěle. A to je naprosto v pořádku. Co ti kniha přinese Uleví se Vám. Opravdu. Naučíte se říkat „ne“ – laskavě, ale jasně. Přestanete si vyčítat, že neplníte cizí očekávání. A konečně si dovolíte cítit se dobře – bez výčitek . Doporučení nakladatele Tahle kniha nás zasáhla přímo – do nervů, do bránice, do srdce. Pokud jste taky roky cvičení v tom, jak být milí, výkonní a nezatěžující, máte právo to změnit. Všichni mi můžete není rebelie. Je to návrat k sobě. A začíná jednou jednoduchou větou: „Tohle už dělat nebudu.“ - Michaela a Václav Kazdovi Úryvek z knihy „Kathrin?“ „Ano?“ „Jdi do prdele.“ Nic velkého? Pro mě ano. V ten moment jsem byla Jana z Arku, třímetrová, nesená orchestrální hudbou, s pončem vlajícím jako praporem vítězství. Ne nad Kathrin. Ale nad svou vlastní potřebou, aby mě všichni měli rádi.

Virginia Woolfová - Alexandra Harrisová

Virginia Woolfová patří k literárním ikonám dvacátého století: málokdo měl na vývoj moderní prózy větší vliv než ona. Proč tomu tak je, ukazuje výmluvně přední britská kulturní historička Alexandra Harrisová. Její nové biografii Virginie Woolfové se v anglofonních zemích dostalo nadšeného kritického přijetí i mimořádného čtenářského ohlasu, zejména díky autorčině schopnosti barvitě a srozumitelně vykreslit Woolfové život i dobu a skrze živý detail přiblížit její geniální literární dílo. Těm, kdož Woolfovou neznají, nabízí Alexandra Harrisová čtivý úvod do spisovatelčina díla, znalcům modernistické spisovatelky pak neotřelé a novátorské interpretace jejích velkých děl, založené na důkladné znalosti předmětu. Alexandra Harrisová (1981) vystudovala anglistiku na Oxfordu; v současnosti přednáší na University of Liverpool. Kritická biografie Virginie Woolfové je její druhou knihou; její literárněhistorický debut Romantic Moderns získal řadu ocenění, mj. prestižní cenu The Guardian First Book Award za rok 2010.

The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking - Watkins Michael

How did John F. Kennedy put a man on the moon in just under ten years?What can chess teach us about actionable insights?And why should you shake up a business at a time of great success?All of these questions have their answer in strategic thinking. But what is strategic thinking exactly? Are we born with it, or can we nurture it?As a distinct and important capability in leaders, strategic thinking is a remarkably poorly defined, little understood concept, confined to management courses and board meetings. But in The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking, world-renowned expert Michael Watkins shows leaders how they can benefit from it, as long as they have the tools to nurture it.Exploring the six specific mental disciplines that together constitute strategic thinking, each chapter shows how they can create value, and offers prescriptions on how to develop the strategic thinking mindset ourselves. Academically grounded but jargon-free, with real-world examples from all sectors and ages, The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking assesses our innate ability to think strategically, and helps us to cultivate it, leading to better decisions that get proven results.

Art of Thinking Clearly - Rolf Dobelli

A world-class thinker counts the 100 ways in which humans behave irrationally, showing us what we can do to recognize and minimize these “thinking errors” to make better decisions and have a better life Despite the best of intentions, humans are notoriously bad—that is, irrational—when it comes to making decisions and assessing risks and tradeoffs. Psychologists and neuroscientists refer to these distinctly human foibles, biases, and thinking traps as “cognitive errors.” Cognitive errors are systematic deviances from rationality, from optimized, logical, rational thinking and behavior. We make these errors all the time, in all sorts of situations, for problems big and small: whether to choose the apple or the cupcake; whether to keep retirement funds in the stock market when the Dow tanks, or whether to take the advice of a friend over a stranger. The “behavioral turn” in neuroscience and economics in the past twenty years has increased our understanding of how we think and how we make decisions. It shows how systematic errors mar our thinking and under which conditions our thought processes work best and worst. Evolutionary psychology delivers convincing theories about why our thinking is, in fact, marred. The neurosciences can pinpoint with increasing precision what exactly happens when we think clearly and when we don’t.Drawing on this wide body of research, The Art of Thinking Clearly is an entertaining presentation of these known systematic thinking errors--offering guidance and insight into everything why you shouldn’t accept a free drink to why you SHOULD walk out of a movie you don’t like it to why it’s so hard to predict the future to why shouldn’t watch the news. The book is organized into 100 short chapters, each covering a single cognitive error, bias, or heuristic. Examples of these concepts include: Reciprocity, Confirmation Bias, The It-Gets-Better-Before-It-Gets-Worse Trap, and the Man-With-A-Hammer Tendency. In engaging prose and with real-world examples and anecdotes, The Art of Thinking Clearly helps solve the puzzle of human reasoning.

This bundle includes Liljedahlâ ²s bestselling anchor book Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12 and his new supplement title Modifying Your Thinking Classroom for Different Settings.  Much of what happens in math classrooms today is guided by institutional norms laid down at the inception of an industrial-age model of public education. These norms have enabled a culture of teaching and learning that is often devoid of student thinking. Building Thinking Classrooms presents the results of over 15 years of research into which teaching practices are effective for getting students to think and which ones do not. This book takes you through a step-by-step approach that you can use to transform your classroom from a space where students mimic to a space where students think. But how do these practices work in a classroom with social distancing or in settings that are not always face-to-face?  The follow-up supplement, Modifying Your Thinking Classroom for Different Settings, will answer those questions, and more. It walks teachers through how to adapt the 14 practices for 12 distinct settings, some of which came about as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.Â

Systems Thinking For Social Change - David Peter Stroh

David Stroh has produced an elegant and cogent guide to what works. Research with early learners is showing that children are natural systems thinkers. This book will help to resuscitate these intuitive capabilities and strengthen them in the fire of facing our toughest problems. ⠔Peter Senge, author of The Fifth Discipline Concrete guidance on how to incorporate systems thinking in problem solving, decision making, and strategic planning⠔for everyone!Donors, leaders of nonprofits, and public policy makers usually have the best of intentions to serve society and improve social conditions. But often their solutions fall far short of what they want to accomplish and what is truly needed. Moreover, the answers they propose and fund often produce the opposite of what they want over time. We end up with temporary shelters that increase homelessness, drug busts that increase drug-related crime, or food aid that increases starvation.How do these unintended consequences come about and how can we avoid them? By applying conventional thinking to complex social problems, we often perpetuate the very problems we try so hard to solve, but it is possible to think differently, and get different results.Systems Thinking for Social Change enables readers to contribute more effectively to society by helping them understand what systems thinking is and why it is so important in their work. It also gives concrete guidance on how to incorporate systems thinking in problem solving, decision making, and strategic planning without becoming a technical expert.Systems thinking leader David Stroh walks readers through techniques he has used to help people improve their efforts on complex problems like:ending homelessnessimproving public healthstrengthening educationdesigning a system for early childhood developmentprotecting child welfaredeveloping rural economiesfacilitating the reentry of formerly incarcerated people into societyresolving identity-based conflictsand more!  The result is a highly readable, effective guide to understanding systems and using that knowledge to get the results you want.

Portrét Alexandra (978-80-8237-014-3)

Kniha - autor Jonáš Jasen, 320 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Ako kvapky vody sú poviedky, z ktorých pozostáva Portrét Alexandra. Každá zrkadlí vlastný príbeh, ale spolu vytvárajú prúd spoločného plynutia času od konca devätnásteho storočia až po súčasnosť. Čas vo vnútri jednotlivých textov sa neraz skrúti do protipohybu, vráti na scénu vedľajšiu postavu alebo inak zmieša prítomnosť s minulosťou — barónsku nadradenosť s tajomstvom falzifikátu, víťaza prvých motocyklových pretekov s jeho poslednou milenkou, podvedeného emigranta s budúcim premiérom či amputovanú nohu s Van Goghovým odrezaným uchom. To hlavné je však rozprávanie o ubiehaní Alexandrovho života, ktorý koreňmi čiastočne siaha do vymretého aristokratického rodu, on sám je však priemerný človek dneška, ktorý nič významné nedosiahol, hoci sa o to pokúšal. Aj preto nostalgická konfrontácia toho akí sme boli, o čom sme snívali, s tým, čo sme urobili a kam sme dospeli, je v knihe neustále...

Alexandra Koláčková (978-80-7437-373-2)

Kniha - autor Milan Hlaveš; Alexandra Koláčková, 160 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Charakteristickým specifikem tvorby Alexandry Koláčkové jsou zejména barevné velkoformátové plastiky z keramiky a betonu, určené pro veřejný prostor. V řadě projektů však autorka rozšířila spektrum výtvarného působení i na řešení prostoru samotného, čímž se blíží práci architekta či krajináře. Pro její výtvarné pojetí je typická expresivní barevná škála, jednoduché oblé tvarosloví a neutuchající smysl pro hravý element.

Číhat na mech - Alexandra Brocková

Básnická sbírka Alexandry Brockové Číhat na mech je sebevědomým debutem. Promyšleně komponovaná kniha nenápadně vrací do současné české poezie vysoký básnický styl. Brocková ráda střídá pestré formální rejstříky: od vznešeného patosu k „mileniálsky“ potutelné větě. Nebojí se spájet vysoké s nízkým, jistou „učenost“ s rozpustilostí, pozorování nepostřehnutelných dějů a bytostí, rostlin, ptactva i živlů s precizní básnickou formou. Brocková mluví za věci i živé bytosti, nikdy není povýšená, vždy je účastná. Lidstvo vnímá jako jednoho z mnoha tvorů obývajících Zemi a s delikátní ironií glosuje jeho absurdní hemžení. Jako by v jejím pohledu současná civilizace byla přehlídkou zvolna se rozpadajících památek-ruin, o kterých autorka jako užaslý cestovatel podává zprávu. V poezii Alexandry Brockové je možné zakusit to, co Petr Král nazýval „rozdýcháním vjemu“ – schopnost rozehrát zjitřený počitek či stav, který se při čtení doslova rozklene před očima.
