ABSOLUTNÍ MUST HAVE PRO VŠECHNY MARKETÉRY! | V marketingu jde především o to, jak přesvědčit zákazníka ke koupi. Než ale můžete začít ovlivňovat něčí rozhodování, je potřeba porozumět tomu, co k němu vede. A od toho je tu Richard Shotton a jeho Anatomie rozhodování. Kniha se zabývá tím, jak rozhodovací proces probíhá, ať už se jedná o triviální rozhodování o tom, co si dáme k jídlu, nebo o životní rozhodování, jako například změnu práce. Zkoumá, jak je naše chování ovlivňováno psychologickými zkratkami, které nazývá zkreslením, a svoje poznatky prezentuje v kontextu možného použití těchto zkratek při tvorbě efektivní marketingové kampaně. Využívá při tom důkazy z akademického prostředí i z praxe marketingového oboru a vychází také z vlastních experimentů. Každou kapitolu ilustruje bohatou sadou příkladů, které prakticky znázorňují použití daného zkreslení v praxi. Kniha je stručná a výstižná - neutápí se ve složitých formulacích a suché vědecké terminologii, naopak se snaží být srozumitelná pro každého.

A comprehensive history of school choice in the US, from its birth in the 1950s as the most effective weapon to oppose integration to its lasting impact in reshaping the public education system today.Most Americans today see school choice as their inalienable right. In The Choice We Face, scholar Jon Hale reveals what most fail to see: school choice is grounded in a complex history of race, exclusion, and inequality. Through evaluating historic and contemporary education policies, Hale demonstrates how reframing the way we see school choice represents an opportunity to evolve from complicity to action.The idea of school choice, which emerged in the 1950s during the civil rights movement, was disguised by American rhetoric as a symbol of freedom and individualism. Shaped by the ideas of conservative economist Milton Friedman, the school choice movement was a weapon used to oppose integration and maintain racist and classist inequalities. Still supported by Democrats and Republicans alike, this policy continues to shape American education in nuanced ways, Hale shows—from the expansion of for-profit charter schools and civil rights–based reform efforts to the appointment of Betsy DeVos.Exposing the origins of a movement that continues to privilege middle- to upper-class whites while depleting the resources for students left behind, The Choice We Face is a bold, definitive new history that promises to challenge long-held assumptions on education and redefines our moment as an opportunity to save it—a choice we will not have for much longer.

The proven, all-weather investing strategy that delivers long-term, consistent returnsThe most common investing approach today⠔one that values ⠜growth⠝ over all else⠔ can be ineffective and counterproductive for many investors, not to mention needlessly stressful. Now, one of Seeking Alpha⠙s most popular writers, Steven Bavaria, provides a groundbreaking alternative that will see you through all markets⠔up, down, and sideways. The Income Factory shows how to build an income stream that increases solidly and consistently⠔a result of re-investing and compounding the dividends. And the best part? This income stream actually grows faster during market downturns than during flat or rising market periods. The Income Factory sheds light on: ⠢ Why ⠜high-yield⠝ doesn⠙t have to mean ⠜high-risk⠝ ⠢ How credit investments perform more predictably than equity investments ⠢ Why ⠜junk⠝ is a misnomer⠔and why high-yield debt is safer than most of the stocks investors own ⠢ How to grow your wealth steadily without following the markets obsessively Through Bavaria⠙s strategy, cash income increases year after year at a predictable rate. For example, a 9% yielding portfolio doubles and re-doubles every 8 years. If you⠙re in for the long haul, an Income Factory lets you achieve your goals and still sleep well at night.Investing does not have to be about picking specific horses and hoping they win the race. An Income Factory achieves its goals by essentially betting on horses to make it around the track and finish the race. Those are easier bets to win, and they don⠙t require us to be glued to the financial news 24/7.

A rich and powerful exploration of desire, sin and redemption, by one of our best chroniclers of faith in the 21st century. I enjoyed it enormously. The story is so interesting, the theme so important and pertinent, and the fluency and lightness of touch so engaging to read PHILIP PULLMAN [Arditti] has given us a novel very much for our time, good enough to be for all time, too The Scotsman An engrossing, three-dimensional, grown-up narrative ROWAN WILLIAMS The perfect combination of matters ecclesiastical and artistic Financial Times Bursting with intellectual richness and joyously acidic dialogue The Spectator A compelling read Observer I loved this book for its lightness of touch about serious subjects and for dialogue that glitters like clashing rapiers MIRANDA SEYMOUR An intelligent and entertaining novel that handles lightly problems of great moral weight GuardianAs a woman in the early 1980s, Clarissa Phipps is unable to pursue her priestly vocation. Instead, she joins the BBC, where she is sent to interview the artist Seward Wemlock about the panels he is painting for an ancient Cheshire church. A serious and important writer ROSE TREMAIN Arditti has delivered a complex moral fable with skill and aplomb Mail on SundayThirty years on, now rector of that same church, she chances upon Brian, the chief bell-ringer and husband of her closest friend, fondling fifteen-year-old David. David claims they are in love, but Clarissa is obliged to act. Will she choose friendship or conscience, sympathy or her duty of care?The fallout from that choice forces her to reflect on past concerns over Wemlock s relationship with his teenage models. Had she heeded the whispers at the time, how many lives - her own included - would have turned out differently?The Choice is a rich and powerful exploration of desire, sin and redemption, questioning whether it s possible, let alone prudent, to separate the art from the artist, which reaches to the heart of the contemporary culture wars. Richly comic and deeply compassionate, it is a remarkable synthesis of the sacred and profane. At a time when British fiction has never been more timorous about tackling novels of ideas, Michael Arditti has produced one worthy of Iris Murdoch and Graham Greene. Brilliantly ambiguous, waspishly witty and thoroughly enjoyable, this is Michael Arditti s own masterpiece to date AMANDA CRAIG

Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett s The Spirit Level: Why Equality is Better for Everyone is the most influential and talked-about book on society in the last decade - now updated with a new chapter on the controversy the book has ignited. Why do we mistrust people more in the UK than in Japan? Why do Americans have higher rates of teenage pregnancy than the French? What makes the Swedish thinner than the Australians? The answer: inequality. This groundbreaking book, based on years of research, provides hard evidence to show: How almost everything - from life expectancy to mental illness, violence to illiteracy - is affected not by how wealthy a society is, but how equal it isThat societies with a bigger gap between rich and poor are bad for everyone in them - including the well-off How we can find positive solutions and move towards a happier, fairer future Urgent, provocative and genuinely uplifting, The Spirit Level has been heralded as providing a new way of thinking about ourselves and our communities, and could change the way you see the world. A big idea, big enough to change political thinking - Guardian A remarkable new book ... the implications are profound - Will Hutton, Observer The evidence is hard to dispute - EconomistRichard Wilkinson studied economic history at the London School of Economics before training in epidemiology and is Professor Emeritus at the University of Nottingham Medical School and Honorary Professor at University College London.Kate Pickett is a Professor of Epidemiology at the University of York and a National Institute for Health Research Career Scientist.

‘A masterpiece’ The Sunday Times‘The pure essence of trail running, infectious and captivating’ Scott Jurek, bestselling author of Eat and Run‘One of the best books about the extremes of sporting endeavour that you will ever read’ Independent on Sunday Twenty years since it was first published, Feet in the Clouds by Richard Askwith remains the definitive story of fell-running and a modern sports classic. Richard Askwith’s journey takes him into a world of forbidding rocky hills, horizontal rain, fear, exhaustion and stunning natural beauty, as well as one of the sport s purest and toughest challenges: the Bob Graham Round, running 42 Lake District peaks in 24 hours. Along the way, he encounters some of the most prodigious – and unsung – athletes that Britain has produced, such as Joss Naylor, who covered the equivalent of four Everests in a single run. Gripping, funny and moving, Feet in the Clouds is a story that any aspiring runner, endurance athlete or mountain-lover will understand well: of extremity, heroism and the experience of a lifetime. With a fully revised epilogue and an introduction from bestselling author Robert Macfarlane, this is a complete portrait of one of the few sports to have remained utterly true to its roots – in which the point is not fame or fortune but to run the ancient, wild landscape, and to be a hero, if at all, within one’s own valley.

â œOne of the most exciting and original books about Shakespeare that Iâ ™ve read in years.⠝⠔James ShapiroThe remarkable untold story of Shakespeareâ ™s first theatre â “ the playhouse before the Globe In 1576, in a muddy field in Shoreditch, James Burbage erected Londonâ ™s first purpose-built commercial playhouse. A place of high culture and quick profit, run by cunning dreamers, the Theatre for the first time offered Londonâ ™s players the chance to control what they staged. At a time when playgoing was held to be close to a sin, this entertainment factory was a flashpoint for controversy â “ but would also become Shakespeareâ ™s first theatre, where he learned to ply his trade before his company moved to the Globe.  Through the life of this little-known playhouse, Daniel Swift tells the story of how Shakespeare became Shakespeare, and the Elizabethan stage began to flourish. Introducing us to the businessmen who dreamed up the Theatre, the carpenters who built it, the preachers who hated it, and the actors who performed upon its small stage, The Dream Factory recreates the world that produced Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Nightâ ™s Dream â “ and the audiences who first saw them.

Richard Dawkins so stands out through the cutting intelligence of e God Delusionâ ™ James D. Watson, Nobel Laureate and co-discoverer of DNA----------The God Delusion caused a sensation when it was published in 2006. Within weeks it became the most hotly debated topic, with Dawkins himself branded as either saint or sinner for presenting his hard-hitting, impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types.His argument could hardly be more topical. While Europe is becoming increasingly secularized, the rise of religious fundamentalism, whether in the Middle East or Middle America, is dramatically and dangerously dividing opinion around the world. In America, and elsewhere, a vigorous dispute between intelligent design and Darwinism is seriously undermining and restricting the teaching of science. In many countries religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights such as women s and gay rights. And all from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind.Dawkins attacks God in all his forms. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry and abuses children.The God Delusion is a brilliantly argued, fascinating polemic: required reading for anyone interested in this most emotional and important subject.

A variously tragic tale of escapism and assimilation, Richard Bradford s The Durrells explores the truth behind the image. The Durrells are probably the most celebrated literary family of the 20th century. Gerald turned them into celebrities with his tripartite memoir, beginning with My Family and Other Animals (1956) which told of his experiences with his widowed mother Louisa and three siblings during their time in 1930s Corfu. We know of the Durrells from their own writings and from the image of them created by TV, film and biographical accounts of specific figures. What we do not know is the truth. Using previously unpublished material from the Jersey Archive, Richard Bradford unravels the lives of the famous four children of the Corfu era â “ Larry, Gerry, Margo and Lesli â “ as they find themselves geographically and emotionally divided amongst a backdrop of imperial decline and unrest. The children of moneyed colonialists, they were already used to being treated with aghast fascination by the islandâ ™s locals, and by expatriate Britons as a disgrace to the homeland. Yet their story goes beyond the Ionian Sea, and The Durrells delves into the complex social and political circumstances in which the family lived, with seemingly constant threats of war and endangerment to both themselves and their natural environment.

Nobel Prize-winner and co-author of Nudge, Richard Thaler, and rising star economist Alex Imas explore behavioral economics in this fully updated edition of the seminal work The Winner’s CurseWhy do people cooperate with one another when they have no incentive to do so? Why do we hold onto possessions of little value? And why is the winner of an auction so often disappointed?Over thirty years ago, Richard Thaler introduced readers to behavioral economics in his seminal Anomalies column, written with collaborators including Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky. These provocative articles challenged the fundamental idea at the heart of economics that people are selfish, rational optimizers, and provided the foundation for what became behavioral economics. That was then. Now, three decades later, Thaler has teamed up with economist Alex Imas to write a new book. Every chapter starts with an original Anomaly, retaining the spirit of its timestamp. Then, shifting to the present, they provide current updates to each, asking how the original findings have held up and how the field has evolved since then.It turns out these findings still show up almost everywhere. Anomalies pop up in people’s decisions to save for retirement and how they carry outstanding credit card debt. Even experts fail to optimize. The key concept of loss aversion explains missed putts by golf pros and the selection of which stocks to sell by portfolio managers. In this era of meme stocks and Dogecoin, it is hard to defend the view that financial markets are highly efficient. The good news, however, is that the anomalies have got much funnier.With both readability and rigor, The Winner’s Curse illuminates these ideas for anyone – from those with a cursory understanding of economics to fellow economists. Each chapter provides a key insight into human behavior so readers learn how to better understand the choices made by their friends, colleagues, and customers, and might just become better at making decisions themselves.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE RICHARD JEFFRIES AWARD A WATERSTONES BEST NATURE WRITING BOOK OF 2024 PICKA BBC WILDLIFE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 Delightful ... Mabey is the doyen of UK nature writing New Statesman Both instructive and exciting, often ecstatic... Mabey is a great, pioneering nature writer Irish Times Our greatest nature writer New ScientistWe regard gardens as our personal dominions, where we can create whatever worlds we desire. But they are also occupied by myriads of other organisms, all with their own lives to lead. The conflict between these two power bases, Richard Mabey suggests, is a microcosm of what is happening in the larger world. Rooted in the daily dramas of his own Norfolk garden, Mabey offers a different scenario, where nature becomes an equal partner, a gardener itself. Against a background of disordered seasons he watches his accidental garden reorganising itself. Ants sow cowslip seeds in the parched grass. Moorhens take to nesting in trees. A spectacular self-seeded rose springs up in the gravel. The garden becomes a place of cultural and ecological fusion, and perhaps a metaphor for the troubled planet. This is vintage Mabey - maverick, intensely observed, and written with an unquenchable sense of wonder.
