We Are All Chile - Katherine Karr-Cornejo

A study of the relationship between literature and the current conditions of national life, We Are All Chile explores how artistic expression reflects lived experience. The book travels through figures, symbols, and events in Chilean history from the sixteenth to the end of the nineteenth centuries as represented through historical fiction of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, an oeuvre that uses historical stories to reflect upon the challenges of Chilean society post-dictatorship. Contrasting the use of these stories with previous understanding highlights the power of legacies of the dictatorial authoritarian state, particularly as they shape possibilities for the full flourishing of people without regard for their minoritized or disadvantaged identities, such as their sex, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or race. This treatment of Chilean history and culture brings together literature and historiography to offer powerful interpretations of cultural narratives. The focus on varied dimensions of difference illustrates both overlapping representations and distinctive features of each within narratives imagining a more inclusive community. Throughout We Are All Chile, historical narratives and their source material are connected to support the creation of imaginative space for a better and more expansive future. The stories studied highlight the relationships between gender, empire, and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

We Are All Targets : How Renegade Hackers Invented Cyber War and Unleashed an Age of Global Chaos

The incredible untold origin story of cyberwar and the hackers who unleashed it on the world, tracing their journey from the ashes of the Cold War to the criminal underworld, governments, and even Silicon Valley. Two years before 9/11, the United States was attacked by an unknown enemy. No advance warning was given, and it didn't target civilians. Instead, tomahawk missiles started missing their targets, US agents were swept up by hostile governments, and America’s enemies seemed to know its every move in advance. A new phase of warfare—cyber war—had arrived. And within two decades it escaped Pandora's Box, plunging us into a state of total war where every day, countless cyber attacks perpetrated by states and mercenaries are reshaping the world. After receiving an anonymous email with leaked NATO battle plans during the bombardment of Kosovo, journalist Matt Potter embarked on a twenty-year investigation into the origins of cyber war and how it came to dominate the world. He uncovered its beginnings – worthy of a Bond movie – in the last days of the Cold War, as the US and its allies empowered a generation of Eastern European hackers, only to wake up in the late 90s to ...

A neurologist explores the very real world of psychosomatic illness. Pauline first became ill when she was fifteen. What seemed to be a urinary infection became joint pain, then life-threatening appendicitis. After a routine operation Pauline lost all the strength in her legs. Shortly afterwards, convulsions started. But Pauline’s tests are normal: her symptoms seem to have no physical cause whatsoever. This may be an extreme case, but Pauline is not alone. As many as a third of people visiting their GP have symptoms that are medically unexplained. In most, an emotional root is suspected which is often the last thing a patient wants to hear and a doctor to say. We accept our hearts can flutter with excitement and our brows can sweat with nerves, but on this journey into the very real world of psychosomatic illness, Suzanne O''Sullivan finds the secrets we are all capable of keeping from ourselves.‘A fascinating glimpse into the human condition... a forceful call for society to be more open about such suffering’ Daily Mail‘Honest, fascinating and necessary’ The Times

Linchpin - Seth Godin

In this compelling, accessible and purpose-filled book bestselling business author Seth Godin shows how you have the potential to make a big difference-and make yourself indispensable in the process-wherever you are.Why are some people easily outsourced, downsized, or freelanced into obscurity, while others have their pick of opportunities? In his most powerful book yet, Seth Godin argues that it''s more essential than ever to become indispensable - to become a linchpin. Linchpins are the essential building blocks of great organizations: they invent, lead (regardless of title), connect others, make things happen, and create order out of chaos. They love their work and pour their best selves into it and turn each day into a kind of art - and, in today''s world, they get the best jobs and the most freedom.Godin shows that the key to being indispensable is overcoming the fears that hold most of us back. If you have you ever found a shortcut that others missed, seen a new way to resolve a conflict, or made a connection with someone others couldn''t reach, then you have what it takes to become indispensable. It''s time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map.

Smysluplná práce - Seth Godin

Oduševnělé přehodnocení toho, čím může být práce a vedení, z hlavy vizionáře, známého autora a myšlenkového vůdce Setha Godina. Píseň o významu je strhující úvaha o práci: proč je taková, jaká je, proč se tak zhoršila a co můžeme všichni – zejména vedoucí pracovníci – udělat pro to, aby se zlepšila. Ekonomická nestabilita a vzestup práce na dálku způsobily, že jsme odloučení a neangažovaní. Znepokojení manažeři reagují tvrdými nařízeními shora, propouštěním, dohledem a povinnými schůzemi. Pracovníci reagují tichým odchodem a prací za svou mzdu. Ale nemusí to tak být. Legendární autor knih o podnikání Seth Godin se prostřednictvím 144 provokativních strof dostává k jádru toho, co nás trápí; ukazuje, co je skutečným důvodem těchto trendů, a vyzývá nás, abychom se zlepšili způsobem, který má smysl. Volba je jednoduchá. Můžeme snášet kocovinu průmyslového kapitalismu, nadále zacházet s lidmi jako s věcmi na jedno použití a připojit se k závodu ke dnu poháněnému umělou inteligencí. Nebo se spojíme, abychom vybudovali významnou organizaci, která každého zařadí, posílí a bude mu důvěřovat, aby odváděl svou nejlepší práci bez ohledu na to, kde se nachází.

V rámci svého trhu pak získejte důvěru zákazníků. Naslouchejte jejich životním příběhům, abyste je pochopili a pomohli jim najít to, co hledají. A především dejte lidem nástroje, které jim k dosažení jejich cílů pomohou. Je čas přestat lhát, zahlcovat lidi spamem a stydět se za práci, kterou děláte. Je čas přestat utrácet peníze za ukradenou pozornost, dlouhodobě se to nevyplatí. Je čas přestat si plést analýzy sociálních médií se skutečnými zákazníky. Je čas být vidět. K tomu se nejprve potřebujete naučit, jak se máte dívat.

Here We Are - Graham Swift

It is Brighton, 1959, and the theatre at the end of the pier is having its best summer season in years. Ronnie, a brilliant young magician, and Evie, his dazzling assistant, are top of the bill, drawing audiences each night. Meanwhile, Jack – Jack Robinson, as in ‘before you can say’ – is everyone’s favourite compère, a born entertainer, holding the whole show together. As the summer progresses, the off-stage drama between the three begins to overshadow their theatrical success, and events unfold which will have lasting consequences for all their futures. Rich, comic, alive and subtly devastating, Here We Are is a masterly piece of literary magicianship which pulls back the curtain on the human condition.

Lies We are Told, the Truth We Must Hold - Sharon James

We are surrounded by lies. They are incorporated into the worldview of our culture. We daily absorb them, and these lies can have deadly effects on individuals, societies and whole civilisations.  Sharon James investigates the origins of some of these lies and looks at how we have got to the point where ‘my truth’ is as valid as ‘your truth’, and absolute truth is an outdated way of thinking. In examining the evidence of history, she highlights the consequences of applying dangerous untruths. She also looks at how Christians often respond to the culture’s lies –in silence, acquiescence or celebration of them – and why these responses can be as harmful as the lies themselves.  In the second part she turns to the truth which leads to real liberation and justice. She shows why we don’t need to be ashamed of Christ, or intimidated by the claims of those who are militantly opposed to the Bible.  This book aims to equip Christians to navigate the minefield of current claims. To understand our inherent human significance, to know genuine freedom, and to work for real justice, we need to know the truth.  Chapter headings include:Part One: The ...
