Download or read book Unnoticed Notifications written by Arun A K and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-09-12 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say, on average, a person spends four hours a day using their mobile phone, which is almost 25% of their waking hours. With such an amount of time spent on screen time, there are moments when we don’t look at our phones for a couple of hours while we are occupied with something important. When we finally check our phones, we often find a bunch of push notifications on our home screen. We tend to focus on the communications from a few important applications, have a quick glance at the rest, and then clear all the notifications at once. Later, when we visit a particular application or when someone reminds us of a message they have sent, we realize that an important communication was hidden among those push notifications, which we should have responded to but failed to notice at the time. Similarly, due to the various roles we play daily, each demanding a lot of our time, we tend to miss out on the important notifications life gives us. If we can constructively interpret the instances of our lives regularly by introspecting, we would discover profound insights hidden in those incidents, which would help us grow in maturity. The chapters in this book contain such profound inferences, which I have derived from my own life experiences. These insights went unnoticed when they happened, but I discovered them days, months, or even years later. I wish to share them with the world, and that’s how ‘Unnoticed Notifications’ was born.

It is worth examining, no matter where your professional interest lies.'- Duncan MacPaul, Nursing Times. Why do so many people die without need? How can an exceptional few survive extraordinarily harsh conditions sometimes after months or years of deprivation? Recent years have seen remarkable improvements in survival training and technology, yet most people still perish quickly in the face of adversity. In this book John Leach seeks to answer these questions by considering the psychology of human survival; how groups and individuals behave before, during and after life threatening events. Both short and long-term survival are addressed as well as the psychological consequences of hunger, thirst, cold, heat, crowding, isolation, fatigue and sleep deprivation. The essence of this work is distilled into a set of principles for psychological first-aid for use in the field.

In particular, it traces the representation of the East German community in films made since 1989 and considers whether these narratives challenge or reinforce the notion of a separate East German identity. The book identifies and analyses a large number of films, from internationally successful box-office hits, to lesser-known productions, many of which are discussed here for the first time. Providing an insight into the films’ historical and political context, it considers related issues such as stereotyping, racism, regional particularism and the Germans’ confrontation with the past.
