    Abstract: Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), bekannt für seine Kinder- und Jugendbücher wie "Das Dschungelbuch", hat speziell für seine eigenen Kinder Gute-Nacht-Geschichten geschrieben und mit fantasievollen Zeichnungen garniert. Genauso fantasievoll sind auch die Geschichten selbst, schon die Titel sprechen für sich: "Wie der Walfisch seinen Schlund bekam", "Wie der Leopard zu seinen Flecken kam", "Der Schmetterling, der mit dem Fuss stampfte". In "Wie das Kamel seinen Buckel bekam" ist es die grosse Faulheit des Tiers, das nach der Erschaffung der Welt nicht wie alle anderen Tiere Arbeiten verrichten möchte und dafür von einem Dschinn mit dem Höcker bestraft wird und fortan im Dienst des Menschen tätig sein muss. Auch in den beiden Geschichten, in denen es so aussieht, als würde es um rein menschliche Dinge wie Briefe und Alphabet gehen, spielen Tiere eine wichtige Rolle. Die schön gestaltete Taschenbuchausgabe von Kiplings Geschichten kann auch heute noch gerne empfohlen werden, nicht nur als Vorlesebuch zum Einschlafen. Breit einsetzbar

    Abstract: Die Pille ermöglichte den Frauen einst, sich sexuell zu befreien. Heute dient sie jungen Mädchen dazu, den eigenen Körper nach gängigen Schönheitsvorstellungen zu formen. In ihrem aufrüttelnden Buch zeigt Katrin Wegner, wie die Antibabypille von einem Verhütungsmittel zu einer Art Lifestyle-Droge geworden ist und welche Risiken damit verbunden sind. Im Jahr 2010 konsumierten 87 Prozent der 14- bis 17-jährigen Mädchen die Pille. Viele von ihnen nehmen das Medikament jedoch nicht wegen seiner verhütenden Wirkung, sondern aufgrund der ersehnten Nebeneffekte: reinere Haut, volleres, glänzendes Haar und eine gröe︢re Oberweite. Die Pharmaindustrie richtet ihr Marketing darauf aus und bietet die neuesten Pillen teilweise im trendigen Schminktäschchen an. So wird die Pille zunehmend nicht mehr als Arzneimittel wahrgenommen und eine Abwägung von Risiko und Nutzen findet vor allem bei den Jüngeren kaum noch statt. Katrin Wegner hat mit 250 Frauen aus drei Generationen über die Bedeutung der Pille in ihrem Leben gesprochen. Auf dieser Grundlage zeigt sie, wie sich Liebe, Partnerschaft, Sexualität und Lebensplanung in den letzten fünf Jahrzehnten verändert haben

    Abstract: Um die Kölner Rede anlässlich des Anschlags auf "Charlie Hebdo" des diesjährigen Buchhandels-Friedenspreis-Trägers (s. auch "Ungläubiges Staunen", ID-A 39/15) erweiterte Taschenbuchausgabe. E. Mair-Gummermann schrieb in BA 6/09 zur Erstausgabe: "Kermani, 1967 in Deutschland geborener Islamwissenschaftler und Schriftsteller iranischer Herkunft, Mitglied der Deutschen Islamkonferenz, macht sich Gedanken über das Leben von Menschen aus unterschiedlichen Kulturen, mit unterschiedlichen Identitäten in unserer deutschen Gesellschaft. ... [Er] sieht den Zustand der Integrationsbemühungen in Deutschland optimistisch, fordert aber von allen Beteiligten Offenheit und Anstrengungen." In einer Zeit enthemmter Fremdenfeindlichkeit wichtig als "hervorragende Diskussionsgrundlage". (2)
    Note: "Für die Neuausgabe in C.H.Beck Paperback wurde das Buch um Navid Kermanis Kölner Rede vom 14. Januar 2015 erweitert." - Impressum , Hier auch später erschienene, unveränderte Nachdrucke

    Abstract: Facettenreiche Darstellung des oft gewalttätigen Lebensalltags indischer Frauen, im Bezug auf Familie, Ehe, und Macht (auch die weibliche). Mitgiftmorde, Vergewaltigungen, Säureattacken werden anhand von Fallbeispielen dokumentiert. (Ruth Jäger)
    Abstract: Katharina Kakar ist Religionswissenschaftlerin und Ethnologin und lebt mit ihrem Mann S. Kakar in Indien (gemeinsam entstand: "Die Inder", ID-A 39/06). In diesem Band beschreibt sie facettenreich den Lebensalltag indischer Frauen in Bezug auf Gewalt, Macht, Vergewaltigung, Ehe und Armut, der sich in urbanen Zentren massiv vom Lebensalltag auf dem Land unterscheidet. Zum Thema "Widerstand" gibt es nur ein Kapitel (anders als bei A. Fontanella-Khan: "Pink-Sari-Revolution", ID-A 16/14). Sehr differenziert betrachtet Kakar nicht nur männliche Gewalt gegenüber Frauen, sondern z.B. auch die von Schwiegermüttern gegenüber jungen Schwiegertöchtern, die nicht selten Mitgiftmorde zu verantworten haben. Auch die Abtreibung weiblicher Föten wird durch die Dominanz traditioneller Werte häufig von Frauen selbst gewollt. Trotzdem steht natürlich die männliche physische Gewalt, die den Frauenalltag beherrscht, im Zentrum der Darstellung. Die zahlreichen Fallbeispiele, z.B. in Bezug auf Säureattacken und Vergewaltigungen, sind nichts für schwache Nerven. Faktenreich und gut geschrieben, farbiges Cover. (2) (Ruth Jäger)

    Abstract: Unter den Augen der staunenden Weltöffentlichkeit haben Islamisten der Miliz Islamischer Staat in Irak und Syrien (ISIS) ein riesiges Gebiet mit Großstädten, Waffenarsenalen und Ölvorkommen unter ihre Kontrolle gebracht, das sie mittlerweile Kalifat nennen. Diese größte Terrororganisation aller Zeiten rekrutiert sich aus der arabischen Welt, aus Europa und gerade auch aus Deutschland. Sie gewähren zu lassen bedroht den Frieden in der Region. Sie anzugreifen birgt unabsehbare Anschlagsrisiken. „Said zoomt aber nicht nur die angeblich so neue und unbegreifliche Gewalteruption, diesen Selfie-Salafismus mit throat-cut challenge – »Machtpolitik mit der Hand am Sack« sagt Sonja Zekri, die Nahostkorrespondentin der ›Süddeutschen Zeitung‹, kurz und treffend – zurück auf Menschenmaß. Er macht außerdem klar, dass der akute mörderische Jihadismus kein Monolith ist. Er ist eben keine übermächtige Einheit, sondern zerstritten, also genauso endlich wie alles Menschenwerk. Kein Mittel ist so probat für Enthysterisierung wie diese Erkenntnis“ (titel-kulturmagazin.net)

    Abstract: A continuation of 1994’s groundbreaking Cartoons, Giannalberto Bendazzi’s Animation: A World History is the largest, deepest, most comprehensive text of its kind, based on the idea that animation is an art form that deserves its own place in scholarship. Bendazzi delves beyond just Disney, offering readers glimpses into the animation of Russia, Africa, Latin America, and other often-neglected areas and introducing over fifty previously undiscovered artists. Full of first-hand, never before investigated, and elsewhere unavailable information, Animation: A World History encompasses the history of animation production on every continent over the span of three centuries. Volume II delves into the decades following the Golden Age, an uncertain time when television series were overshadowing feature films, art was heavily influenced by the Cold War, and new technologies began to emerge that threatened the traditional methods of animation. Take part in the turmoil of the 1950s through 90s as American animation began to lose its momentum and the advent of television created a global interest in the art form. With a wealth of new research, hundreds of photographs and film stills, and an easy-to-navigate organization, this book is essential reading for all serious students of animation history.

    Abstract: In today’s economic landscape, no business model, company, or industry is immune to disruption. Every industry and organization needs to transform… or perish. At O’Reilly’s Next:Economy summit, the geeks met the suits to explore the future of work in an era of sweeping technology-driven transformation. This complete video compilation puts you at the center of every presentation. You’ll hear from key executives of companies driving the transformation; economists, journalists and policymakers studying it; and people on the front lines of the revolution: workers taking on new jobs in new kinds of businesses, along with inventors, investors, and entrepreneurs who are changing the world with their products and services. You’ll also hear from a broad spectrum of businesses whose industries are now undergoing transformation. Everyone’s asking WTF? (“What's the future?”), with questions that include: Which technologies will help existing businesses deliver experiences that equal or exceed those of new economy companies? How can augmented reality be used to "upskill" workers and consumers, creating enormous new sources of productivity? How will software agents and applied machine learning transform business workflows, not just consumer experiences? What tools and practices make it possible to manage a truly distributed, on-demand workforce? What kinds of industries—and new opportunities—can best take advantage of the 21st century approach to work? Pick up these videos and learn how technology is shaping the future of industries, companies, and the nature of work.

    Abstract: “Finally! The book that helps you deal with irrational, impossible people.” —Oprah’s Book Club 2.0 Let’s face it, we all know people who are irrational. No matter how hard you try to reason with them, it never works. So what’s the solution? How do you talk to someone who’s out of control? What can you do with a boss who bullies, a spouse who yells, or a friend who frequently bursts into tears? In his book, Just Listen , Mark Goulston shared his bestselling formula for getting through to the resistant people in your life. Now, in his breakthrough new book Talking to Crazy , he brings his communication magic to the most difficult group of all—the downright irrational. As a psychiatrist, Goulston has seen his share of crazy and he knows from experience that you can’t simply argue it away. The key to handling irrational people is to learn to lean into the crazy—to empathize with it. That radically changes the dynamic and transforms you from a threat into an ally. Talking to Crazy explains this counterintuitive Sanity Cycle and reveals: Why people act the way they do How instinctive responses can exacerbate the situation—and what to do instead When to confront a problem and when to walk away How to use a range of proven techniques including Time Travel, the Fish-bowl, and the Belly Roll And much more You can’t reason with unreasonable people—but you can reach them. This powerful and practical book shows you how.

    Abstract: Con el fin de prosperar en esta época de incertidumbre, este fascinante libro nos propone dirigirnos hacia lo desconocido, en vez de alejarnos de él. Reestructura el concepto del No Saber desde un lugar de miedo e ignorancia para llegar a un lugar donde el No Saber ofrece una brillante oportunidad, donde no te verás limitado por lo que ya sabes, si no que profundizarás en tu conocimiento, surgirán nuevas posibilidades y ganarás sabiduría. Aprenderás, mediante casos reales, cómo el No Saber rescata a una empresa de la bancarrota y la convierte en una de las que tiene mayor crecimiento en los Estados Unidos; cómo una pequeña empresa en Colombia aumenta sus ventas anuales de forma excepcional, cómo un ingeniero y un chef descubren por error la «salsa secreta» que les lleva tres años reproducir o cómo un vicepresidente de una empresa mediana dirige a su equipo hacia lo desconocido. Este libro te llevará por el viaje del No Saber. Te animará a desarrollar la mentalidad adecuada para que te enfrentes a lo desconocido y avances, en vez de meramente sobrevivir. Desarrollarás la capacidad de no solamente tolerar lo desconocido, sino también de usarlo en tu beneficio.

    Abstract: Establish credibility as the new family business leader Myths & Mortals, Family Business Leadership and Succession Planning provides insights and strategies for successors of family businesses. Successors often find themselves in the shadow of their parents making it difficult to establish credibility in the family business and tap into their own strengths. The stress of emulating a parent begins to clash with who they are and who they want to be as a leader. Written by internationally known business strategist and succession planning expert Andrew Keyt, this guide shows you how to establish credibility, take your place at the head of the table, and run your business your way. In groundbreaking research, Keyt interviewed more than 25 successors of family business legends including Massimo Ferragamo, Bill Wrigley Jr., Christie Hefner, and John Tyson to find out how they overcame the challenges successors commonly face.The analysis from that study formed the basis for the strategies presented here—to help you win the loyalty of those stuck in the old way of doing business, and still focused on their former leader's vision. You'll learn how to take charge without sacrificing your own leadership style, and how to get everyone on board with your vision for the business. Growing up in the shadow of legendary family business leaders creates a unique challenge for successors to the leadership position. You cannot remove the emotional power of family dynamics from the business, but you can change how you choose to react to it. To be successful, you need to create a sense of identity and credibility, and step out of the shadows of your forbears. This guide provides strategies for doing just that, so you can take the reins and be the effective leader your business needs. Overcome the obstacles successors commonly face Win over those still loyal to their former leader Build your own credibility, separate from your parents Develop your own leadership style and do business your way Credibility is elemental to business leadership, but establishing that credibility is the successor's biggest challenge. Myths & Mortals, Family Business Leadership and Succession Planning helps you plan around the obstacles and avoid common missteps so you can lead more effectively right out of the gate.

    Abstract: Witness how the FDIC manages your money during financial crises Inside the FDIC tells the real stories behind bank failures and financial crises to provide a direct account of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and other bank regulators. Author John Bovenzi served in senior level positions within the FDIC for over twenty years, including a decade as the Deputy to the Chairman and Chief Operating Officer. This book describes what he witnessed as the person in charge of day-to-day operations, as a nearly invisible agency grew to become a major, highly independent force impacting US financial markets. Readers will learn how the FDIC and other bank regulators use the power of the federal government, spend other people's money, and approach decision-making. This book takes readers inside the FDIC to showcase: The FDIC's emergence as a major market influence How ten FDIC chairmen helped shape the US financial regulatory system Internal conflicts between the FDIC and other bank regulatory agencies Pressures and challenges presented by financial crises Since the early 1980s, over 3,400 banks have failed. These failures weren't steady, regular, and easily predictable events; periods of tranquility were followed by turmoil, booms led to busts, and peaceful complacency often turned to sudden devastation. Inside the FDIC chronicles it all, from the perspective of a first hand witness inside the agency responsible for calming the storm.

    Abstract: A practical guide for robust sharī'ah governance of the Islamic banking industry Debate in the market on the extent of sharī'ah compliance of Islamic banks, their products, and activities has piqued stakeholders' interest.

    Abstract: Venture deep into the heart of finance's weird and wonderful paradoxes Dinosaur Derivatives and Other Trades is an entertaining and compelling tour de force highlighting the paradoxes inherent to the modern financial system. Presented as a series of striking case studies, this book explores certain enigmatic or philosophical puzzles in the finance industry; some of these puzzles may seem slightly absurd at first glance, but all are very relevant to the way finance is conducted in the real world. Each story highlights specific hypocrisies or moral dilemmas that lie at the heart of the system, guiding readers through the challenges of finance by way of innovative and memorable paradigms. Written in clear, accessible language, this book doesn't claim to offer original financial theory or philosophy as such, but instead deepens the reader's understanding of the system and stimulates independent consideration of the current state of affairs. The financial world, so often viewed as a rather dull place, is secretly alive with possibilities of strange and sometimes wonderful conundrums. There is the possibility, for instance, of a Manhattan auction house selling derivatives to buy swift-swimming predators known as Megalodons (thought to be extinct for millions of years). This book explores this and other curious propositions to point out the paradoxes of finance. Explore the meaning of "value" in different contexts Learn what the Old Testament can teach us about risk and uncertainty Examine an alternative take on the 2007/2008 credit crisis Consider how the "financial innovation" trend impacts the industry To truly understand something, it is necessary to crawl deep into the metaphorical underbelly and have a look around. Dinosaur Derivatives and Other Trades provides the itinerary, and the insightful discussion that stimulates curiosity.

    Abstract: If you work for a company that develops products of one kind or another, you may have worked on a new feature you thought was truly awesome, only to discover later that it was a dismal failure. In this video course, Dan McKinley shares hard lessons that he learned at Etsy about the value of using data to drive product decisions. Using several real-world case studies on proposed changes to Etsy’s website, Dan demonstrates why using appropriate metrics to evaluate any product idea is crucial in the early stages—before you spend too much time and money on something that may not pan out. Determine the type of data you need for analyzing specific product questions Prioritize product ideas based on several metrics—do the numbers add up? Examine case studies on two product ideas: one discarded and one pursued Understand the benefit of A/B testing for evaluating product prototypes Explore the novelty effect: products that only achieve short-term effects Look at three methods for attempting large strategic moves, based on case studies Learn how to win the trust of your community when introducing product changes Dan McKinley is a web developer who spent seven years at Etsy, beginning in 2007 when it was still a fledgling company. During his tenure, he worked on activity feeds, search, recommendations, experimentation, and analytics. Dan currently works for Stripe, a company that provides a suite of APIs to help businesses accept online payments.

    Abstract: The authors conducted two surveys, yielding responses from more than 1,200 young professionals, and had 18 in-depth interviews to examine the work behaviors and experiences of early-career, highly skilled employees. They found that young professionals have short average tenures at organizations. Ninety-two percent of them are on the lookout for other job opportunities while employed, and their job search continues even if they seem engaged in their current job. They consider jobs with high stakes, top management support, and ample formal training the most valuable and important for their career development, and they want more coaching, mentoring, and formal training from employers than is currently given to them. The authors organize their conclusions around three themes: the rewards of job change, the job-search behaviors of this footloose group of professionals, and the management-development practices that may keep them with employers. The researchers note that their findings on the relationship between employer changes and promotions represent a radical departure from both previous empirical research and past conventional wisdom about job hopping and career success. A decade ago, it was generally believed that promotions accompanied with a disproportionately large increase in responsibility were more likely to be given to insiders than outsiders. This advantage seems to have eroded: The authors found no marked differences between the promotion patterns of job hoppers and those who stayed with the same employer during the early stage of their career. Young professionals have marked and ambitious career goals that are often not linked to any particular organization, and they don’t see frequent jumps across employers in a negative light. In fact, this relentless job search is not necessarily driven by dissatisfaction with the job and the intention to leave the organization, as traditional models of job search and turnover might assume. How do employers retain this group of employees? The authors’ findings suggest that developmental practices are essential. Today’s young employees crave development, especially assignments that offer clear responsibility and accountability for a project, and visibility to and support from senior managers. Organizations that are ready to give young professionals these forms of development will be the most likely to attract and keep them.

This book describes the personal character, choices, and leadership style that enabled her to break through the glass ceiling. When 52-year-old Mary Barra was named CEO of General Motors in 2013, only people outside of the company were surprised. She had done everything from working on the factory floor to overseeing manufacturing, from improving union relations to paring down bureaucracy, and from running human resources to helping drag the company back from its 2009 bankruptcy. This book details each step of her career, and the lessons she learned along the way. Learn how Mary Barra's willingness to take on diverse assignments helped steer her career trajectory Examine the fine details of Barra's management style and her ability to relate to colleagues Discover the qualities and experiences Barra had that drove her to lead this male-dominated profession Study the valuable lessons Barra learned at each stage in her professional life, and why they stuck with her throughout her journey to the top Barra is most certainly a pioneer for women in business, but she's also a living lesson as to how far the right outlook, skills, and drive can take you in your career. Road to Power explores the talent and the mindset that got her all the way to the top.

    Abstract: A unique, international approach to optimal real estate financing Property Finance is an authoritative guide to both the financial and legal issues surrounding real estate financing. Unique in its exclusive focus on the topic, this book builds from a solid theoretical foundation to provide practical tools and real-world solutions. Beginning with a discussion of the general issues encountered in real estate finance from an international perspective, the authors delve into country-specific information and set out the legal peculiarities of eight important countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, China, India, England and Wales) by asking questions of relevance to the leading local law firms specializing in real estate financing. The reader may thus consider in greater depth the problems relating to any given country and compare and contrast the positions under different legal systems. Examples with numerical calculations and contract excerpts enhance the explanations presented, and are immediately followed by practical case studies that illustrate the mechanisms at work. The companion website features downloadable spreadsheets used in the examples, power point presentations, as well as real estate news and more. Property financing entails many sources of capital, including both debt and equity resources as well as hybrid forms like preferred equity and mezzanine debt. Knowing how to work with these avenues is important to ensuring financial sustainability in real estate assets. Property Finance covers the most common issues encountered, helping readers prepare for and find a way around possible roadblocks. Consider the issues surrounding real estate lending at an international level Compare and contrast the positions under different legal systems Develop an international perspective on cash flows and financing agreements Use powerful tools to structure financing and gauge its effects on property financing The success of a real estate investment is dependent upon optimal financing, and a mere bird's eye view of the topic does not fully prepare investors for issues ahead: Property Finance provides a knowledge-based approach to real estate investment, detailed information and powerful tools.

We're all drowning in work – never-ending to-do lists, constant deadlines one after the other, too many emails to possibly answer! If only some of that load could be lifted.

Certainly in work, business growth is dependent on creative thinking and innovation – you need time to do that.

    Abstract: The WWW era made billions of people dramatically dependent on the progress of data technologies, out of which Internet search and Big Data are arguably the most notable. Structured Search paradigm connects them via a fundamental concept of key-objects evolving out of keywords as the units of search. The key-object data model and KeySQL revamp the data independence principle making it applicable for Big Data and complement NoSQL with full-blown structured querying functionality. The ultimate goal is extracting Big Information from the Big Data. As a Big Data Consultant, Mikhail Gilula combines academic background with 20 years of industry experience in the database and data warehousing technologies working as a Sr. Data Architect for Teradata, Alcatel-Lucent, and PayPal, among others. He has authored three books, including The Set Model for Database and Information Systems and holds four US Patents in Structured Search and Data Integration. Conceptualizes structured search as a technology for querying multiple data sources in an independent and scalable manner. Explains how NoSQL and KeySQL complement each other and serve different needs with respect to big data Shows the place of structured search in the internet evolution and describes its implementations including the real-time structured internet search
