Rather than looking at complicated self-management frameworks and models, these pages reveal a perspective of organisational transformation based on the simple but powerful premise of facilitating different kinds of dialogues.

When Darwin set sail at the end of 1831, it was only with a vague notion that all life forms, both present and extinct, were more strongly related than the Christian version of the world's creation purported them to be. During his five-year voyage of research and discovery on board HMS Beagle, and later from his home in Kent, he painstakingly collected a mass of evidence from across the planet - from Paraguay and the Galapagos Islands to Staffordshire and Scotland - building a compelling case for a theory that would change the world we live in - and the way we look at it - for ever.The foundation of evolutionary biology and natural selection - which prompted as huge a revolution in the fields of science and religion as Copernicus's heliocentric model of the universe and Newton's law of gravity, Darwin's On the Origin of Species is perhaps the most important book of scientific observation ever written.

In the bestselling The Signal and the Noise, Nate Silver showed how forecasting would define the age of Big Data. Now, in this timely and riveting new book, Silver investigates "The River," or those whose mastery of risk allows them to shape-and dominate-so much of modern life.These professional risk takers-poker players and hedge fund managers, crypto true-believers and blue-chip art collectors-can teach us much about navigating the uncertainty of the 21st century.By embedding within these worlds, Silver offers insight into a range of issues that affect us all, from the frontiers of finance to the future of AI.The River has increasing amounts of wealth and power in our society, and understanding their mindset-including the flaws in their thinking-is key to understanding what drives technology and the global economy today. There are certain commonalities in this otherwise diverse group: high tolerance for risk; appreciation of uncertainty; affinity for numbers; skill at de-coupling; self-reliance and a distrust of the conventional wisdom. For the River, complexity is baked in, and the work is how to navigate it, without going beyond the pale.Taking us behind-the-scenes from casinos to venture capital firms to meetings of the effective altruism movement, On the Edge is a deeply-reported, all-access journey into a hidden world of powerbrokers and risk takers.

Album s názvem On the Waves je druhým albem kapely Voila!, a kromě již tradiční francouzštiny na něm zazní písně v angličtině, ale i ve slovenštině, což je mateřština zpěvačky kapely Zdenky Trvalcové, často právem označované za slovenskou Zaz. Album, na němž VOILA! nově využívá i elektronické prvky, vznikalo ve studiu Golden Hive u Filipa Jelínka (J.A.R, Illustratosphere), který se na něm spolupodílel i produkčně. Na albu hostuje 13 skvělých hudebníků, z nichž se většina objeví i na podiu v Lucerně. Album On the Waves volně navazuje na první album Décollage (2014), a bylo opět inspirováno příběhy z cest zpěvačky Zdenky. Posluchači se tak mohou nechat unést na audio vlnách do Francie či Španělska, anebo si jen vychutnat ambientní momenty prchavého štěstí. Tracklist: 1. Arles, Avignon 03:04 2. Fine 03:04 3.
