Download or read book Emotion Imagination and the Limits of Reason written by Talia Morag and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emotions pose many philosophical questions. We don't choose them; they come over us spontaneously. Sometimes emotions seem to get it wrong: we experience wrongdoing but do not feel anger, feel fear but recognise there is no danger. Yet often we expect emotions to be reasonable, intelligible and appropriate responses to certain situations. How do we explain these apparent contradictions? Emotion, Imagination, and the Limits of Reason presents a bold new picture of the emotions that challenges prevailing philosophical orthodoxy. Talia Morag argues that too much emphasis has been placed on the "reasonableness" of emotions and far too little on two neglected areas: the imagination and the unconscious. She uses these to propose a new philosophical and psychoanalytic conception of the emotions that challenges the perceived rationality of emotions; views the emotions as fundamental to determining one's self-image; and bases therapy on the ability to "listen" to one’s emotional episode as it occurs. Emotion, Imagination, and the Limits of Reason is one of the first books to connect philosophical research on the emotions to psychoanalysis. It will be essential reading for those studying ethics, the emotions, moral psychology and philosophy of psychology as well as those interested in psychoanalysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DISTINGUISHED FAVOURITE: Independent Press Award 2020 - Business General Category WINNER: CES 2020 Gary's Book Club Top Technology Book of the Year Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the new electricity of our times. It is revolutionizing industries the world over, and changing how we fundamentally view and understand work. Superhuman Innovation argues that AI will supercharge the workforce and the world of work, can be harnessed to deliver powerful change to how companies innovate and gain competitive advantage. It is a practical guide to how AI and Machine Learning are impacting not only how businesses, brands, and agencies innovate, but also what they innovate: products, services and content. In a world of product and pricing parity, the delivery of superior service experience has become the new marketing, and the new real competitive edge. With AI companies can harness the power of data, personalization and on-demand availability, at the touch of an intelligent button. Superhuman Innovation discusses how AI will serve the superstar innovators of tomorrow, by enabling them to see deeper insights and set sail for higher goals. It unearths a powerful five-pronged model which describes how AI enables innovation through the offerings of Speed (facilitating work processes), Understanding (revealing and mastering deep insights), Performance (customization of delivery to customers), Experimentation (the iterative process of reinvention and feedback) and Results (tangible, measurable and optimizable results). The book is supported by varied and innovative case studies from a variety of industries.

Download or read book Roar Like You Mean It written by Thomas Hackelman and published by Thomas Hackelman. This book was released on 2015-03-01 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sales profession should be the most noble, the proudest of professions. A true sales champion, through his actions, changes lives, companies and entire industries. For anything to truly happen in our economy, a sale must first take place. Whether we are selling ideas, products or services, our economy thrives or dies as a result of the sales process. At some point in history, the sales profession took in incredible hit. As much as it pains me to say it, we did it to ourselves. As with any profession, there are those who inflict pain and loss as a result of their efforts. It comes in many forms. There are those who fail to accept the appropriate training and those who will embellish the facts in order to secure the order. We have seen those who fail to follow through on promises and those who simply fail to follow up. And there are those unfortunate few who have blatantly lied to get ahead only to leave our profession bearing the burden of a poor, sordid reputation. It doesn’t have to be this way. It’s time for the lions to roar!
