Download or read book Thinking in Systems written by Donella Meadows and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic book on systems thinking—with more than half a million copies sold worldwide! "This is a fabulous book... This book opened my mind and reshaped the way I think about investing."—Forbes "Thinking in Systems is required reading for anyone hoping to run a successful company, community, or country. Learning how to think in systems is now part of change-agent literacy. And this is the best book of its kind."—Hunter Lovins In the years following her role as the lead author of the international bestseller, Limits to Growth—the first book to show the consequences of unchecked growth on a finite planet—Donella Meadows remained a pioneer of environmental and social analysis until her untimely death in 2001. Thinking in Systems is a concise and crucial book offering insight for problem solving on scales ranging from the personal to the global. Edited by the Sustainability Institute’s Diana Wright, this essential primer brings systems thinking out of the realm of computers and equations and into the tangible world, showing readers how to develop the systems-thinking skills that thought leaders across the globe consider critical for 21st-century life. Some of the biggest problems facing the world—war, hunger, poverty, and environmental degradation—are essentially system failures. They cannot be solved by fixing one piece in isolation from the others, because even seemingly minor details have enormous power to undermine the best efforts of too-narrow thinking. While readers will learn the conceptual tools and methods of systems thinking, the heart of the book is grander than methodology. Donella Meadows was known as much for nurturing positive outcomes as she was for delving into the science behind global dilemmas. She reminds readers to pay attention to what is important, not just what is quantifiable, to stay humble, and to stay a learner. In a world growing ever more complicated, crowded, and interdependent, Thinking in Systems helps readers avoid confusion and helplessness, the first step toward finding proactive and effective solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book on spirituality. It attempts to present to readers the purpose of life and enables them to look at life in a much broader perspective. It is written in a lucid and simple style which helps make the concepts easy to understand. Everybody looks to gain permanent happiness, but search in the wrong place. They search in the world full of bright objects hoping that by acquiring the next shining article, their life will be full of happiness and are dismayed when they do not find it. This book removes many misconceptions and presents to readers the source of immortal bliss. Readers will be exposed to the fact that the source of eternal bliss is internal and the book provides basic information about the route to eternal bliss. The book also explores concepts of God, birth, death and reincarnation in a clear manner. I hope readers find it thought provoking and enables them to take the first step on their spiritual journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you feel it, you feel it. They are rare but they do exist- they mitigate other people’s existence, they are healers and mediators. They are lightworkers. But most of them don’t start believing in themselves soon enough to recognize their beacon and purpose on the Earth to begin healing others, as well as themselves. Or simply, to identify lightworkers sent for them, around them. This book is your perfect first step to teaching yourself everything you need to know to find your inner power, or discover that of others. The latter is as important as reflecting on your potential to unfold. Sadly, many are misguided by generalizing the purpose and types of lightworkers. It is as important to know which kind of lightworker you are, as it is to know if you are one or not, or if the person you’re trusting your mind and heart to is one or not. Take your intuition and match it with our guidance and knowledge to discover your potent, healing powers to elevate humankind’s mindfulness. If you feel an astronomic pull towards helping others, or towards helping yourself, it would be a waste of time to make yourself figure it all out on your own. Yes, your gut will play the biggest role in your path of becoming a lightworker, but you need to build up to that intuition with the knowledge and experience tempered in all sorts of ancient fires. We provide precisely that in this book of compressed pearls of wisdom and tools to perceive yourself and others. In this book, you will learn about: ● All types of Lightworkers: From Gatekeepers to Seers, you will learn hard facts about their nature and characteristics, making it simple for you to identify them from miles away. ● How to know if you’re a lightworker: You will be advised to take a close look at your soul to identify your sensitivity, healing powers, and your manifestor self. ● How to take care of yourself as a lightworker: Help yourself before you attempt to heal others. You will explore how to clear your energy field, ground yourself, meditate, and find stillness in everyday life. If you’re ready to embark on this journey… Start today!

Download or read book The Politics of Resentment written by Katherine J. Cramer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An important contribution to the literature on contemporary American politics. Both methodologically and substantively, it breaks new ground.” —Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare When Scott Walker was elected Governor of Wisconsin, the state became the focus of debate about the appropriate role of government. In a time of rising inequality, Walker not only survived a bitterly contested recall, he was subsequently reelected. But why were the very people who would benefit from strong government services so vehemently against the idea of big government? With The Politics of Resentment, Katherine J. Cramer uncovers an oft-overlooked piece of the puzzle: rural political consciousness and the resentment of the “liberal elite.” Rural voters are distrustful that politicians will respect the distinct values of their communities and allocate a fair share of resources. What can look like disagreements about basic political principles are therefore actually rooted in something even more fundamental: who we are as people and how closely a candidate’s social identity matches our own. Taking a deep dive into Wisconsin’s political climate, Cramer illuminates the contours of rural consciousness, showing how place-based identities profoundly influence how people understand politics. The Politics of Resentment shows that rural resentment—no less than partisanship, race, or class—plays a major role in dividing America against itself.

Download or read book Understanding the Human Factor of the Energy Transition Mechanisms Underlying Energy Relevant Decisions and Behaviors written by Tobias Brosch and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of countries are shifting toward sustainable energy economies, emphasizing the use of renewable energy sources, increases in energy efficiency and the abatement of greenhouse gas emissions. The success of such an energy transition will depend not only on the development of new energy technologies, but also on major changes in the patterns of individual energy-related decisions and behaviors resulting in substantial reductions in energy demand. Consequently, the behavioral sciences can make important contributions to the energy transition by increasing our understanding of the multiple factors and mechanisms that underlie individual as well as group-based decisions and behaviors in the energy domain and by creating a basis for systematic interventions that reduce energy usage. Many different types of relevant behaviors and decisions need to be considered in this context, including decisions to invest in energy-efficient household equipment, adjustments of energy-critical habits related to heating, eating, or mode of transportation, and participation in the political discourse related to questions of energy. An integration of the expertise of the different disciplines of the behavioral sciences is thus needed to comprehensively investigate the impact of the different drivers and barriers that may determine energy-related decisions and behaviors, including economic factors such as price level, social factors such as norms, communication patterns and social learning processes, and individual factors such as values, attitudes, beliefs, heuristics, affective biases and emotions. The potential impact of these factors on the success of the energy transition is considerable: for example, a recent projection of the energy demand in Switzerland until 2050 has estimated the reduction potential related to psychological and sociological factors between 0% and 30%, depending on which behavioral changes will be implemented in society. Increased research efforts from the behavioral sciences are required to ensure that the full reduction potential can be achieved. This Research Topic brings together contributions from different disciplines such as psychology, affective science, behavioral economics, economics, sociology, consumer behavior, business science, sociology, and political science, that improve our understanding of the many factors underlying decision-making and behavior in the energy domain, and contribute to the development of targeted interventions that aim at reducing energy demand based on these factors.
