A fascinating and incisive examination of our language instinct from award-winning science writer Steven Mithen.Along with the concepts of consciousness and intelligence, our capacity for language sits right at the core of what makes us human. But while the evolutionary origins of language have provoked speculation and impassioned debate, music has been neglected if not ignored. Like language it is a universal feature of human culture, one that is a permanent fixture in our daily lives.In THE SINGING NEANDERTHALS, Steven Mithen redresses the balance, drawing on a huge range of sources, from neurological case studies through child psychology and the communication systems of non-human primates to the latest paleoarchaeological evidence.The result is a fascinating and provocative work and a succinct riposte to those, like Steven Pinker, who have dismissed music as a functionless and unimportant evolutionary byproduct.

The players share insights into the racism they faced while they built their careers as well as the racism, they still face today from the hockey establishmentFrom hockey’s racist past to the ongoing reluctance of the hockey establishment to embrace grassroots diversity initiatives, Sandor delves into how members of communities of color (who only make up 5% of the NHL) are being driven away from the sport to more inclusive ones like soccer and basketball, despite the NHL’s expansion to new markets and demographics with billion-dollar TV deals. Comprehensive and timely, Leveling the Ice grapples with how the institutional racism in hockey will directly affect the future of the sport.

What really sets the best managers above the rest? It’s their power to build a cadre of employees who have great inner work lives—consistently positive emotions; strong motivation; and favorable perceptions of the organization, their work, and their colleagues. The worst managers undermine inner work life, often unwittingly.As Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer explain in The Progress Principle, seemingly mundane workday events can make or break employees’ inner work lives. But it’s forward momentum in meaningful work—progress—that creates the best inner work lives. Through rigorous analysis of nearly 12,000 diary entries provided by 238 employees in 7 companies, the authors explain how managers can foster progress and enhance inner work life every day.The book shows how to remove obstacles to progress, including meaningless tasks and toxic relationships. It also explains how to activate two forces that enable progress: (1) catalysts—events that directly facilitate project work, such as clear goals and autonomy—and (2) nourishers—interpersonal events that uplift workers, including encouragement and demonstrations of respect and collegiality.Brimming with honest examples from the companies studied, The Progress Principle equips aspiring and seasoned leaders alike with the insights they need to maximize their people’s performance.

But there was a darker side to his career.In 2014, Finn was sent home from Australia during the calamitous 5-0 series defeat after he lost his confidence and his bowling action fell apart.

It s a story of elation and pain, hitting rock bottom and battling back, and what it s really like to go to war with England s oldest foe.

During her lifetime Marianne Moore was that rarest of combinations, a genuine leader in the art of poetry, as well as a bona fide celebrity. She was an instantly recognisable symbol of Brooklyn, New York, appearing on the cover of Life magazine, asked by the Ford Motor Company to christen their new family sedan, and by the New York Yankees to throw the opening pitch of their baseball season. However, because of Mooreâ ™s restless, seldom-ceasing, decade-spanning revision of her own poems, creating a â ˜stableâ ™ text of her work has posed editors a challenge ever since. Moore tackled the problem herself: Complete Poems (1967) was her own selection, but she favoured the later work, including less than half of her output up to that point. â ˜Omissions are not accidents,â ™ she wrote pointedly in that edition, but for some readers the absence of more than one hundred poems constituted a wilful neglect of her startlingly innovative, highly influential early work, and contributed to Mooreâ ™s undervaluing as a â ˜modernistâ ™ poet. Marianne Moore scholar Heather Cass White has prepared an edition of poems that, for the first time, presents the full range of Mooreâ ™s work in its published order, while honouring the complex textual lives of the poems. With an inviting introduction and meticulous notes, the New Collected Poems of Marianne Moore is the first definitive text of this most celebrated writer, whose poems form part, as T. S. Eliot declared, of â ˜the small body of durable poetry written in our timeâ ™.

Beyond The Origin is a channeled dialogue between the author, the ultimate creator, and the multiple versions itself as he (the author) moves through Event Space, allowing him to understand, to some extent, the future of The Origin and the birthplace of structured space as if it were distant history.  The Origin Speaks opened up the world to the history of The Origin, how it evolved, the structure of space within which its sentience exists, why it created the twelve Source Entities, and the role that Event Space had in it becoming the dominant volume of sentience. This book takes the reader much, much further. The reader is not only updated on the current work of The Origin while being exposed to new concepts but is also taken, as a function of Event Space, to what humans recognize as the future version of The Origin. In this book, Needler uncovers many things: Event Space will ensure that The Origin becomes the dominant volume of sentience. All sentience eventually reenters into full communion with The Origin. Event Space becomes The Origin and The Origin becomes Event Space. There are twelve levels of structured space. Structured space is an aberration in nonstructured space or nothingness. Event Space only exists in structured space. Parallelism is just one function of Event Space. There will be an end to nonstructured space or nothingness. “Shear Potential” created structured space within nonstructured space. Human maturity is on the horizon—relatively speaking—but we need to give up individuality to gain omnipresence and omniscience and thus gain individuality! There are twelve groups of twelve Source Entities. The author has to work with different versions of The Origin as he moves through Event Space. Just when you think that we are starting to understand the Greater Reality, Needler throws another monkey wrench in the works.
