Book excerpt: Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

Book excerpt: An exciting look at how women entrepreneurs are transforming agriculture through high technology. 21st-century agriculture is now on the cutting edge of technological innovation. Drones, AI, sophisticated soil sensors, data analytics, blockchain, and robotics are transforming agriculture into the growing field of agtech. And women entrepreneurs are the driving spirits making this transformation happen. From Farms to Incubators presents inspiring stories of how women entrepreneurs from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds are leading the agtech revolution. Each agribusiness leader profiled in From Farms to Incubators tells her own story of how she used agtech innovation to solve specific business problems and succeed. These business cases demonstrate the influence of female innovation, the new technologies applied to agribusiness problems, and the career opportunities young women can find in agribusiness. From Farms to Incubators also documents the sweeping changes happening in American food production. Growers in the United States and around the world face rising challenges, including climate change, limited water and land supply, uncertainties in immigration policy, a severe labor shortage, and the problem of feeding a rising population estimated at 9 billion in 2050. The entrepreneurs profiled in From Farms to Incubators are the new leaders in tackling these problems through tech innovation. The women profiled speak frankly on the advantages and drawbacks of technological solutions to agriculture and offers lessons in making technology productive in real work. Offering both exhilarating role models for young women seeking high technology careers and a provocative glimpse into the future of food production, From Farms to Incubators documents how women leaders are profitably disrupting the world's oldest industry.

Download or read book Performance and Civic Engagement written by Ananda Breed and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores 'civic engagement' as a politically active encounter between institutions, individuals and art practices that addresses the public sphere on a civic level across physical and virtual spaces. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, it tracks across the overlapping discourses of politics, cultural geography and performance, investigating how and why physical and digital spaces can be analysed and utilised to develop new art forms that challenge traditional notions of how performance is political and how politics are performative. Across three sections - Politicising Communities, Applying Digital Agency and Performing Landscapes and Identities - the ten chapters and three interviews cover a wide variety of international perspectives, all informed by innovative ways of addressing the current crisis of social fragmentation through performance. Providing access to many debates on the theory and practice of new media, this book is of significance to readers from a broad set of academic disciplines, including politics, sociology, geography, and performance studies.

Wealthfulness is the balance of wealth and happiness, the combination of monetary success and meaningfulness. What financial endeavors are the wisest choices for us? How much time should we be spending investing, saving, and planning? How much money do we need to be truly happy in life?

Book excerpt: Improve your life immediately and continually with this practical and transformative prompt and guide written by American artist and entrepreneur, KIRU. So often we are told to 'be positive', to 'think good thoughts' or 'say nice things.' These are inherently good statements and ideas, and they're so well known across the world that it's safe to say most people already understand that it is generally important to be positive, grateful, and kind. Herein lies the struggle: Most people believe that they are capable of growing and improving as an individual, yet they struggle to connect with the actual practice of becoming a better person. They search forever to find the tools to help them grow and instead get lost in a raging sea of cute sayings, nice tries and other abstract happiness material. Here comes the good news. The struggle stops here. The Book of Positive Affirmations is the definitive guide for unleashing the power of positive affirmations in your daily life. Organized neatly into three categories of forty affirmations each, this book will lead and support you day by day with affirmations designed to raise awareness on how to effectively love yourself, know yourself and grow yourself. Positive affirmations are unique from listed quotes and random sayings. They are so much more than a simple feel good phrase. When you make the decision to affirm the power of positivity in your life, you are literally maximizing your awareness of the good and minimizing your focus on that which is not. Decades of research has shown us that when we increase our exposure to positive experiences, our minds open up to new possibilities that we otherwise would not have seen or believed. Putting these affirmations into an order that allows you to ingest and emit positivity day after day is more than an effort to save your life, it's an opportunity to continually improve it.This simplified version includes a guided day count sans illustrations.

Download or read book 365 Days of Positive Affirmations written by Jenny Kellett and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I can't do that" or "I am not able" - sound familiar? Too many of us are stuck in a negative cycle of thought - but you know what? You are great. You are able to achieve great things. Sometimes you just need to remind yourself of that. Positive affirmations have been used by psychologists since the 1920's to help boost the self-esteem of their patients. Research from Carnegie Mellon University conducted in 2013 provided the first evidence that self-affirmation can protect against the damaging effects of stress and anxiety. Millions of people have successfully used positive affirmations to aid in weight loss, depression, anxiety and self-esteem issues. Scientists believe that when positive affirmations are practiced regularly, they reinforce a chemical pathway in the brain, making the connection between two neurons stronger, and therefore more likely to conduct the same message again. In 365 Days of Positive Affirmations you will be introduced to the power of positive affirmations and experience the impact they can have on your life. Move through the book at your own pace as you discover which words and phrases resonate with you on a personal level. These then become your positive affirmations. Once you have those, use them on a daily basis; use them when doubt creeps into your mind; use them to remind yourself you are capable of achieving great things. Own 365 Days of Positive Affirmations today or purchase for a friend who needs a little positivity boost.
