＜p＞＜strong＞A stirring case for a wholesale reimagining of the framing, tactics, and goals we employ in our journey to heal from ecological destruction＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞With research and insight, Charles Eisenstein details how the quantification of the natural world leads to a lack of integration and our “fight” mentality. With an entire chapter unpacking the climate change denier’s point of view, he advocates for expanding our exclusive focus on carbon emissions to see the broader picture beyond our short-sighted and incomplete approach. The rivers, forests, and creatures of the natural and material world are sacred and valuable in their own rightーnot simply for carbon credits or preventing the extinction of one species versus another. After all, when you ask someone why they first became an environmentalist, they’re likely to point to the river they played in, the ocean they visited, the wild animals they observed, or the trees they climbed when they were a kid. This refocusing away from impending catastrophe and our inevitable doom cultivates meaningful emotional and psychological connections and provides real, actionable steps to caring for the earth. Freeing ourselves from a war mentality and seeing the bigger picture of how everything from prison reform to saving the whales can contribute to our planetary ecological health, we resist reflexive postures of solution and blame and reach toward the deep place where commitment lives.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Mediated Climate How Journalists, Big Tech, and Activists Are Vying for Our Future【電子書籍】[ Adrienne Russell ]

＜p＞To what extent does journalism deserve blame for the failure to address climate change over the last thirty years? Critics point out that climate coverage has often lacked necessary urgency and hewed to traditional notions of objectivity and balance that allowed powerful interestsーmainly fossil fuel companiesーto manufacture doubt. Climate journalism, however, developed alongside the digital media landscape, which is characterized by rampant misinformation, political polarization, unaccountable tech companies, unchecked corporate power, and vast inequalities. Under these circumstances, journalism struggled, and bad actors flourished, muddling messages while emissions mounted and societies struggled to avert catastrophe.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Mediated Climate＜/em＞ explores the places where the climate and information crises meet, examining how journalism, activism, corporations, and Big Tech compete to influence the public. Adrienne Russell argues that the inadequate response to climate change is intertwined with the profound challenges facing the communications environment. She demonstrates that the information crisis is driven not only by technological changes but also by concentrated power that predates the rise of digital media companies. Efforts to improve climate coverage must take into account the larger social and material contexts in which journalism operates and the broader power dynamics that shape public discourse. Drawing on interviews with journalists and activists, Russell considers the ways recent movements are battling misinformation. She offers timely recommendations to foster engagement with climate issues and calls on readers to join in efforts to reshape the media landscape to better serve the public interest.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞＜em＞NEW YORK TIMES＜/em＞ BESTSELLER ? When did America give up on fairness? The author of ＜em＞Fantasyland＜/em＞ tells the epic history of how America decided that big business gets whatever it wants, only the rich get richer, and nothing should ever changeーand charts a way back to the future.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞“Essential, absorbing . . . a graceful, authoritative guide . . . a radicalized moderate’s moderate case for radical change.”ー＜em＞The New York Times Book Review＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞During the twentieth century, America managed to make its economic and social systems both more and more fair and more and more prosperous. A huge, secure, and contented middle class emerged. All boats rose together. But then the New Deal gave way to the Raw Deal. Beginning in the early 1970s, by means of a long war conceived of and executed by a confederacy of big business CEOs, the superrich, and right-wing zealots, the rules and norms that made the American middle class possible were undermined and dismantled. The clock was turned back on a century of economic progress, making greed good, workers powerless, and the market all-powerful while weaponizing nostalgia, lifting up an oligarchy that served only its own interests, and leaving the huge majority of Americans with dwindling economic prospects and hope.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Why and how did America take such a wrong turn? In this deeply researched and brilliantly woven cultural, economic, and political chronicle, Kurt Andersen offers a fresh, provocative, and eye-opening history of America’s undoing, naming names, showing receipts, and unsparingly assigning blameーto the radical right in economics and the law, the high priests of high finance, a complacent and complicit Establishment, and liberal “useful idiots,” among whom he includes himself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Only a writer with Andersen’s crackling energy, deep insight, and ability to connect disparate dots and see complex systems with clarity could make such a book both intellectually formidable and vastly entertaining. And only a writer of Andersen’s vision could reckon with our current high-stakes inflection point, and show the way out of this man-made disaster.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Modern Jeweler’s Consumer Guide to Colored Gemstones【電子書籍】[ David Federman ]

＜p＞Since early 1989, a gem dealer I've known for years has been calling me every few weeks to brief me on mounting mayhem in Colombia's lucrative emerald market. The troubling gist of these calls is always this: There is a full-fledged turf war going on between that South American country's bustling drug and gem trades for control of its emerald ex port business. According to this dealer and several others, anywhere from two to four thousand emerald industry people, mostly miners and deal ers, have been murdered since 1980. No doubt the gem sector, itself never gun shy, has retaliated in full and in kind. After all, the two groups have banded together in an intermittent alliance against a common enemy-Communist guerillas-with results the CIA would envy. I mention this bloodshed because of something the gem dealer once said to me: "I bet you never think of what a gem has to go through to get to a jewelry store:' He's right. I tend to think of colored stones as things of beauty, not objects of gruesome power struggles between mining kingpins and drug lords. Can you blame me, or anyone with insider knowledge, if a gem sheds any connection with its past once sculpted by a cutter into the glittering mar vel we see in a jeweler's showcase? Like Odysseus listening to the sirens' song, we become victims of an aesthetics-induced amnesia.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】I Am Not a Bad Hombre Insights on Race, Ethnicity, and Culture from a Brazilian Resident Alien【電子書籍】[ Ivanildo C. Trindade ]

＜p＞The book is a tribute to everyone who continues to believe that America is great not because of the urge that some have to close her to foreigners but precisely because she continues to welcome them with open arms. The stories about the author's sojourn through America that are related in this book run the gamut. Here, you will find "the good, the bad, and the ugly," as the saying goes. But, instead of simply wallowing in the mud, to use another American expression, or blame everyone who may have anything to do with getting him there, the author chooses to remain positive, pointing to his own experience as a sign of hope for Americans that they can enrich their lives by befriending internationals and for internationals that they can succeed in this land of endless possibilities. This book also offers an array tools, ranging from historical notes to cultural tidbits to practical advice, all given in the hope that together we will be able to build a better nation upon a foundation of true understanding that starts with a resolve to treat everyone the same no matter the color of their skin or their country of origin. It is this hope above all that motivated the author to write this book.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞Winner: George Pendleton Prize＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Scribes Award, Honorable Mention＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Silver Gavel Award, Finalist＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“I don’t blame my executioners. I will pray God bless them.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞So said General Tomoyuki Yamashita, Japan’s most accomplished military commander, as he stood on the scaffold in Manila in 1946. His stoic dignity typified the man his U.S. Army defense lawyers had come to deeply respect in the first war crimes trial of World War II. Moments later, he was dead. But had justice been served? Allan A. Ryan reopens the case against Yamashita to illuminate crucial questions and controversies that have surrounded his trial and conviction, but also to deepen our understanding of broader contemporary issuesーespecially the limits of command accountability.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The atrocities of 1944 and 1945 in the Philippinesーrape, murder, torture, beheadings, and starvation, the victims often women and childrenーwere horrific. They were committed by Japanese troops as General Douglas MacArthur’s army tried to recapture the islands. Yamashita commanded Japan’s dispersed and besieged Philippine forces in that final year of the war. But the prosecution conceded that he had neither ordered nor committed these crimes. MacArthur charged him, instead, with the crimeーif it was oneーof having “failed to control” his troops, and convened a military commission of five American generals, none of them trained in the law. It was the first prosecution in history of a military commander on such a charge.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In a turbulent and disturbing trial marked by disregard of the Army’s own rules, the generals delivered the verdict they knew MacArthur wanted. Yamashita’s lawyers appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, whose controversial decision upheld the conviction over the passionate dissents of two justices who invoked, for the first time in U.S. legal history, the concept of international human rights.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing from the tribunal’s transcripts, Ryan vividly chronicles this tragic tale and its personalities. His trenchant analysis of the case's lingering questionーshould a commander be held accountable for the crimes of his troops, even if he has no knowledge of themーhas profound implications for all military commanders.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Politics of Crisis Management Public Leadership under Pressure【電子書籍】[ Arjen Boin ]

＜p＞Crisis management has become a defining feature of contemporary governance. In times of crisis, communities and members of organizations expect their leaders to minimize the impact, while critics and bureaucratic competitors make use of social media to blame incumbent rulers and their policies. In this extreme environment, policymakers must somehow establish a sense of normality, and foster collective learning from the crisis experience. In the new edition of this uniquely comprehensive analysis, the authors examine how strategic leaders deal with the challenges they face, the political risks and opportunities they encounter, the pitfalls they must avoid, and the paths towards reform they may pursue. The book is grounded in decades of collaborative, cross-national and multidisciplinary case study research and has been updated to include new insights and examples from the last decade. This is an original and important contribution from experts in public policy and international security.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞There has been much concern over the impact of partisan echo chambers and filter bubbles on public debate. Is this concern justified, or is it distracting us from more serious issues?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Axel Bruns argues that the influence of echo chambers and filter bubbles has been severely overstated, and results from a broader moral panic about the role of online and social media in society. Our focus on these concepts, and the widespread tendency to blame platforms and their algorithms for political disruptions, obscure far more serious issues pertaining to the rise of populism and hyperpolarisation in democracies. Evaluating the evidence for and against echo chambers and filter bubbles, Bruns offers a persuasive argument for why we should shift our focus to more important problems.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This timely book is essential reading for students and scholars, as well as anyone concerned about challenges to public debate and the democratic process.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians Essay by President Putin, Including His Other Statements and Speeches on the Same Theme【電子書籍】[ Vladimir Putin ]

＜p＞"On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians" is an essay by Russian president Vladimir Putin published on 12 July 2021. It was published shortly after the end of the first of two buildups of Russian forces preceding the large military invasion in February 2022. In the essay, Putin describes his views on Ukraine and Ukrainians. Vladimir Putin argues that Russians and Ukrainians, along with Belarusians, are one people, belonging to what has historically been known as the triune Russian nation. To support the claim, he describes in length his views on the history of Russia and Ukraine, concluding that Russians and Ukrainians share a common heritage and destiny. The essay denies the existence of Ukraine as an independent nation. Noting the large number of ethnic Russians in Ukraine, Putin compares "the formation of an ethnically pure Ukrainian state, aggressive towards Russia" to a use of weapons of mass destruction against Russians. Putin openly questions the legitimacy of Ukraine's contemporary borders. According to Putin, the modern-day Ukraine occupies historically Russian lands, and is an "anti-Russia project" created by external forces since the seventeenth century, and of administrative and political decisions made during the Soviet Union. Putin places blame for the current crisis on foreign plots and anti-Russian conspiracies. According to Putin, the decisions of the Ukrainian government are driven by a Western plot against Russia as well as by "followers of Bandera". This edition includes: On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians Putin Commentaries About the Essay "On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians" The World Order (New Rules or a Game without Rules) Address by the President of the Russian Federation, February 21, 2022 Address by the President of the Russian Federation, September 21, 2022＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

It is more difficult to form good habits because it is simpler to succumb to bad ones.＜br /＞ We all have habits, whether they are good or negative. It can be divided into two groups, good and harmful, depending on the individual. These behaviors are the result of numerous influences. Most of our habits were ingrained in us from an early age.

They may be entirely neutral, completely nice, or completely negative. They all share the trait of being habits or patterns of conduct that are practically automatic. Habits don't involve effort or conscious thought. Frequently, we find ourselves acting in habitual ways without awareness of the processes around us.＜br /＞ Define habits first. Habits are the day-to-day choices and activities you make on a tiny scale. Our habits influence about 40% of our daily behaviors.＜br /＞ Your behaviors are mostly to blame for where you are now.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Serious Consequences : If you Have No Self Discipline【電子書籍】[ DIGITAL NOMAD ]

＜p＞Let’s get one thing clear. The word “discipline” is not precisely popular these days. In detail, many people treat it as the Dictionary word. People think the discipline is outdated or simply inapplicable to our modern age.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It’s easy to think of discipline as picturesque. Something like a relic from the time of our grandparents.＜/p＞ ＜p＞They needed self-discipline, but it is very cool for us to think that we are exempt from it.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It is understandable why many general public have this impression because we live in a society that loves comfort. If you don’t believe me, try ordering a pizza. If you live in a major metropolitan area in the US, the average delivery time is 15 minutes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞If your local pizzeria cannot deliver the items within that time, your pizza is absolutely free. When you go online, when you buy something on Amazon, you are bombarded with all types of free shipping or 2-day delivery deals.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It goes with the region. It seems that the longer we live our lives, the more trained we are to expect instant gratification. We want the good things life has to offer and we want them now. In fact, a lot of people want it yesterday.＜/p＞ ＜p＞That’s how impatient we have become. If you still don’t believe me, when was the last time you read something thoroughly on the Internet? My bet would be a long time ago. Chances are, when you see any kind of news on your Facebook timeline, you are probably scrolling down the page.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It scrolls, it scrolls, it scrolls and it scrolls some more. When you see some kind of keyword, image, or video that you like, that’s when it stops. Once you have a good idea of what the article is talking about, move on to the next item and then the next.＜/p＞ ＜p＞You are hardly alone. The more we use the Internet and interact with people online, our responsiveness (attention) span becomes shorter and shorter. It all comes down to comfort. But here’s the problem. Until you develop self-discipline (self-control) and unless you do, your chances of getting the great things in life are going to decrease.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In fact, depending on your situation, it can be next to impossible. Self-discipline is very important. When you are self-disciplined (self-control), you focus on the big picture. Find it in you to do the difficult and necessary things now so that you can reap greater rewards in the future.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is not sexy. Far from there. Many people think that this is some kind of heavy lifting. This is a punishment. This is an unpleasant task that they would rather avoid. And who can really blame them? When you’re working on something essential, the payoff may be so far away that it might as well be invisible.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Over the time, you start to think to yourself: “What am I doing? I could be having crazy things with my friends. I could be doing more pleasant things. I can be lazy because well, let’s face it, laziness pays off right away. Hard work pays off in a long time. ”＜/p＞ ＜p＞Do you see the disconnect? Do you see why many people prefer not to pick self-discipline?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
