Download or read book Adorno Foucault and the Critique of the West written by Deborah Cook and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alliance of critical theory between Frankfurt and Paris Adorno, Foucault and the Critique of the West argues that critical theory continues to offer valuable resources for critique and contestation during this turbulent period. To assess these resources, it examines the work of two of the twentieth century's more prominent social theorists: Theodor W. Adorno and Michel Foucault. Although Adorno was situated squarely in the Marxist tradition that Foucault would occasionally challenge, Deborah Cook demonstrates that their critiques of our current predicament are complementary in important respects. Among other things, these critiques converge in their focus on the historical conditions-economic in Adorno and political in Foucault-that gave rise to the racist and authoritarian tendencies that continue to blight the West. Cook also shows that, when Adorno and Foucault plumb the economic and political forces that have shaped our identities, they offer remarkably similar answers to the perennial question: What is to be done?

Download or read book Self Publish to Market A Marketing Guide to Self Publishing written by Michael Grist and published by Shotgun Books. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2016, author Chris Fox wrote the groundbreaking book 'Write to Market'. In it, he taught a generation of self-publishers to value what readers wanted, before they even started writing their book. It's a great concept, and it inspired me to develop the Self-Publish to Market approach, which takes Fox's idea and applies it not only to the book text itself in new and powerful ways, but also to the marketing materials that surround it: • the book's cover • its title • and its back cover marketing copy (blurb) Put simply, it provides a proven set of techniques that will help you the author give the reader what they want, while also telling exactly the stories you want to tell. How do you do this? You simply choose the areas where what you want to write overlaps with what the readers want to read - then market accordingly. You don't need to compromise your vision. You don't need to conform to a genre template or tick off elements from some list of tropes, motifs, settings and themes. You just need to build a beautiful storytelling bridge to your readers, and you do that by: 1. Listening - Listen to your readers. Listen to what experts are telling you. Listen to the market. 2. Adapting - Adapt your cover, title, blurb and book in line with what the market says. You can adapt a book both before and after you've published it. 3. Iterating - 'Iterating' is a fancy way of saying 'keep doing the first two principles on repeat'. You listen, you adapt, you listen again and adapt better, and so on, constantly homing in on a more perfect match. Those adaptations could be something tiny, like changing the color of the font on your cover through several shades of blue. It could be one key word in your blurb that changes once, twice, three times to hit on perfection. It could also be something big, like working on new opening chapters that grab the reader better. It's up to you how far you want to iterate - but even small changes can make a huge difference. It could transform your author career and propel you to 6- or 7-figure author status overnight. That's what happened to me. It can happen for you too. In this book you will learn: • How to squeeze gold dust from reviews without getting overawed • How to package your book for sales - get optimal covers, titles and blurbs cheaply and efficiently • How to use beta readers to start a virtuous feedback cycle spinning • How to use movie classification systems to 'grade' your writing • How to give readers what they want without selling out your vision, and 24 more techniques...

Download or read book The Coaching Habit written by Michael Bungay Stanier and published by Box of Crayons Press. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coaching is an essential skill for leaders. But for most busy, overworked managers, coaching employees is done badly, or not at all. They're just too busy, and it's too hard to change. But what if managers could coach their people in 10 minutes or less? In Michael Bungay Stanier's The Coaching Habit, coaching becomes a regular, informal part of your day so managers and their teams can work less hard and have more impact. Coaching is an art and it's far easier said than done. It takes courage to ask a question rather than offer up advice, provide an answer, or unleash a solution. Giving another person the opportunity to find their own way, make their own mistakes, and create their own wisdom is both brave and vulnerable. It can also mean unlearning our ''fix it'' habits. In this practical and inspiring book, Michael shares seven transformative questions that can make a difference in how we lead and support. And, he guides us through the tricky part - how to take this new information and turn it into habits and a daily practice. -Brené Brown, author of Rising Strong and Daring Greatly Drawing on years of experience training more than 10,000 busy managers from around the globe in practical, everyday coaching skills, Bungay Stanier reveals how to unlock your peoples' potential. He unpacks seven essential coaching questions to demonstrate how---by saying less and asking more--you can develop coaching methods that produce great results. - Get straight to the point in any conversation with The Kickstart Question - Stay on track during any interaction with The AWE Question - Save hours of time for yourself with The Lazy Question, and hours of time for others with The Strategic Question - Get to the heart of any interpersonal or external challenge with The Focus Question and The Foundation Question - Finally, ensure others find your coaching as beneficial as you do with The Learning Question A fresh, innovative take on the traditional how-to manual, the book combines insider information with research based in neuroscience and behavioural economics, together with interactive training tools to turn practical advice into practiced habits. Dynamic question-and-answer sections help identify old habits and kick-start new behaviour, making sure you get the most out of all seven chapters. Witty and conversational, The Coaching Habit takes your work--and your workplace--from good to great.

Book excerpt: For most 19-year-olds, a cross-country trip is an offer you can't refuse, but for Marly, it's the last thing she wants after losing both her parents in a car accident. Nine months after their death, Marly would rather stay home working the retail job she hates, than deal with her loss. It isn't until family and friends corner her into driving her mom's renovated 1978 VW bus from Washington to New Hampshire that Marly is forced to face her grief and understand the guilt she feels over her parents' death. Skeptical, Marly goes on the trip, warily exploring the life her parents knew she always wanted-hiking mountains and living out her photography dreams. On the way, she'll discover places and people who'll test her emotions and a guy who pushes at the walls she's so carefully built around herself. Marly must decide: can she face her deepest wounds and reclaim the life she thought was gone forever? Meet Me at the Summit is an intimate tale of grief, finding yourself after deep loss, and coming to terms with how life changes when you least expect it. It follows Marly as she both runs from and towards the emotions she has long held back regarding her parents' death. A deep, insightful look into the coming-of-age theme through a heart-breaking narrative.
