<p>This text provides a holistic, integrated and in-depth perspective on the growing field of customer experience (CX), in a fashion context.</p> <p>Merging three core perspectives ? academic, creative agency and retailer ? the book takes a chronological approach to tracing the evolution of customer experience from the physical store, to omnichannel through channel convergence to consider the future of fashion retailing and customer experience.

Finally, the retailer perspective explores real-life case studies of great customer experience from international brands, including Zara, Nike, Ecoalf, To Summer and Anya Hindmarch. Pedagogical features to aid understanding are built in throughout, including chapter objectives and reflective questions.</p> <p>Comprehensive and unique in its approach, <em>Customer Experience in Fashion Retailing</em> is recommended reading for students studying Fashion Retail Management, Customer Experience, Retail Design and Visual Merchandising, Fashion Psychology and Fashion Marketing.</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>A leading Harvard psychiatrist reveals how our emotional lives are profoundly shaped by the seasons, and how to recognize our own seasonal patterns and milestones</strong><br /> In two decades of psychiatry practice, John R. Sharp has worked with many people who experienced the same emotional distresses at specific times of the yearーa young woman who became depressed before Thanksgiving, a middle-aged man who felt anxious about making his summer travel plans, people who made uncharacteristically extreme decisions as spring approached.<br /> In <em>The Emotional Calendar</em>, Sharp reveals how environmental, psychological, and cultural forces profoundly affect the way we feel, and how the enduring effects of personal anniversaries can influence our moods and behavior year after year. Sharp also illustrates a wide range of individual responses to cultural phenomena: some people feel anxious at the start of a new school year or are undone by the prospect of tax season while others are buoyed by the start of a sports season.<br /> Sharp shows us how to recognize the milestones on our own emotional calendars, providing guidance for how to break stifling patterns and remedy destructive moods. This empathetic and deeply resonant book will help readers reach an emotional balance for the years ahead.</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>A top economist's "engaging and well-reasoned" look at how to save capitalism from itselfーand from the twin threats of populism and socialism ( <em>The Washington Post</em>).</strong><br /> <em>Winner, Handelsblatt Prize for Best Business Book</em><br /> Deep rifts are tearing apart the fabric of the United States and other Western societies: thriving cities versus struggling rural counties; the highly skilled elite versus the less educated; wealthy versus developing countries. As these divides deepen, we have lost the sense of ethical obligation to others that was crucial to the rise of postwar stability and social democracy. So far these rifts have been answered only by the revivalist ideologies of populism and socialism, leading to the seismic upheavals of Trump, Brexit, and the return of the far right in Germany. We have heard many critiques of capitalism, but no one has laid out a realistic way to fix it, until now.<br /> In a passionate and polemical book, world-renowned economist Paul Collier outlines brilliantly original and ethical ways of healing these riftsーeconomic, social and culturalーwith the cool head of pragmatism, rather than the fervor of ideological revivalism. He reveals how he has personally lived across these three divides, moving from working-class Sheffield to hyper-competitive Oxford and working between Britain and Africa, and acknowledges some of the failings of his profession.<br /> Drawing on his own pragmatic, realistic solutions as well as ideas from some of the world's most distinguished social scientists, he shows us how to save capitalism from itselfーand free ourselves from the intellectual baggage of the twentieth century.<br /> "Rife with inventive proposals . . . [Collier's] 'hard centrism' has much to offer." ー <em>The New York Times Book Review</em><br /> "For both left-wing and right-wing readers." ー <em>Library Journal</em><br /> "Powerful." ー <em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br /> <em>One of Bill Gates's Summer Reading Picks</em></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。

But in the summer of 1998 all bets are off. The man who knows every mover, shaker, and faker explains why no one can explain the surprising season. Peter Bart goes behind the scenes like no one can to track the summer movies from development through release. He will reveal why "Godzilla" could never live up to its hype; how intense rivals Robert Redford and Warren Beatty saw their worst nightmares come true when they went head-to-head at the box office; how Jim Carrey's "Truman Show" stole the show; and how Steven Spielberg regained his title of king of the summer in a season where sleepers upset would-be blockbusters. While asteroid movies were colliding with each other, a billionaire newcomer was making superhuman attempts to resuscitate a moribund Universal Studios.<br /> With interviews from studio executives, producers, directors, agents, and stars, Peter Bart unveils the winners and losers in the new Hollywood, where creativity and commerce hang in a precarious balance.</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>There is hope, there is a way of healing and there is a pain-free life to be enjoyed and celebrated.</strong></p> <p>In the summer of 2005 Elizabeth Reilly sustained an injury from a seemingly trivial accident, after which she had chronic pain for the next fourteen years. Treatments of one sort or another ? both mainstream and complementary ? gave only temporary relief. Exercises, as prescribed by physiotherapists, made little difference. Hours spent trawling the internet gave no satisfactory answers, nor did doctors whose specialisation was pain management. Frustration and despair set in.</p> <p>It was only after she stumbled quite by chance on the work of Dr John Sarno that understanding of her symptoms began to make sense. This discovery, along with research into the work of other practitioners in the field of mind-body medicine, enabled Elizabeth to embark on a healing journey that transformed her life. In this engaging and human story, she relates, with insight and humour, her progress, her steps forwards and backwards, and her eventual restoration to full health.</p> <p>This is a story to inspire, with many pointers for readers who might also be suffering from chronic pain or other unexplained symptoms.</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!】Through the Lens of a Teenage Sharecropper【電子書籍】[ Dr. Gwen Sturrup Coverson ]
<p>Although slavery was a practice of forced labor and restricted liberties, as a teenager that was not a part of my consciousness. During the summer months, I enjoyed the outdoors and being with family. Fast forward 50 years, I can only imagine the mounting debt that families endured.</p> <p>Heads of households had to prioritize cash crops and could not spend time planting personal gardens for daily food consumption. Cash crops included tobacco, rice, and cotton. Cash crops took precedence over schooling, therefore children were pulled from schools and denied access to an education. This type of laboring was called sharecropping. Sharecropping is a term used, when one-person farms on another person's land, and the two share what is produced. Sharecroppers were poor, and often in debt to the landowners and creditors from one harvest season to the next. In exchange for the use of the land, cabin and supplies, sharecroppers agreed to raise a cash crop and give a portion, usually 50% of the crop to their landlord.</p> <p>A sharecropper's typical day consisted of long hours working in fields. No matter the condition, healthy or sick, rain or shine, dusk or dawn, sharecroppers sowed, weeded, picked and hauled cotton and tobacco.</p> <p>As I reflect back, the life of a sharecropper was difficult. Even in the best of situations, sharecropping families lived in a house on land that was not their own. The sharecropper contributed his and his family's labor to provide income for the family. Sharecroppers had no control over which crops were planted or how they were sold. During Reconstruction, former slaves and many white farmers became trapped in a system of economic exploitation known as sharecropping. Sharecropping reached full prominence during the 1870's, especially in the southern United States after the Civil War and at the end of slavery in 1865.</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>The surprising history of the Commodore 64, the best-selling home computer of the 1980sーthe machine that taught the world that computing should be <em>fun</em>.</strong></p> <p>The Commodore 64 (C64) is officially the best-selling desktop computer model of all time, according to <em>The Guinness Book of World Records</em>. It was also, from 1985 to 1993, the platform for which most video games were made. But while it sold at least twice as many units as other home computers of its time, like the Apple II, ZX Spectrum, or Commodore Amiga, it is strangely forgotten in many computer histories. In <em>Too Much Fun</em>, Jesper Juul argues that the C64 was so popular because it was so versatile, a machine developers and users would reinvent again and again over the course of 40 years.</p> <p>First it was a serious computer, next a game computer, then a computer for technical brilliance (graphical <em>demos</em> using the machine in seemingly impossible ways), then a struggling competitor, and finally a retro device whose limitations are now charming. The C64, Juul shows, has been ignored by history because it was too much fun. Richly illustrated in full color, this book is the first in-depth examination of the C64’s design and history, and the first to integrate US and European histories. With interviews of Commodore engineers and with its insightful look at C64 games, music, and software, from <em>Summer Games</em> to <em>International Karate</em> to Simons’ BASIC*, Too Much Fun* will appeal to those who used a Commodore 64, those interested in the history of computing and video games and computational literacy, or just those who wish their technological devices would last longer.</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><em>The Terrifying Truth: Everything is an Illusion</em> is a revelation of truth. It deals with the secrets and hard facts of life. By understanding the mysteries of the universe, you will be more able to deal with life's challenges and difficulties. This book gives a new perspective of the world -- a perspective that is rooted in philosophy, spirituality, and wisdom. How would you feel if you suddenly realize that everything is just an illusion? Will you still be stressed, worried, and unhappy? Will you still continue to take life seriously?</p> <p><em>The Terrifying Truth: Everything is an Illusion</em> is the light that shines in darkness that you may find helpful, especially when you feel lost in the ocean of life. This book is your lighthouse that points to the truth. Many people today are caught in a web of illusions. Sadly, they do not even realize that they are already being controlled and manipulated. After all, how does one realize that he is only dreaming? And, even if you do, how do you wake up from a dream? It might be okay if the dream is very pleasant; but sadly, this is not the case. There are dreams that are full of nightmares. And, even so, there is always a yearning in man to know and experience the truth.</p> <p>As some people would say, we are stuck in a matrix. There are illusions that continuously unfold all around us. If we are not careful, it is very easy to be swayed and controlled by these forces. Sadly, only a few awaken from this illusion of the senses. In fact, I even know someone who would rather not know the truth and willingly wants to be controlled by the illusion. To each his/her own. If that is how you want to be, then so be it. But, there is another choice -- and that is to finally wake up and face the truth.</p> <p>We can choose how we live. We can choose to live a lie or know the truth -- and the truth will set you free. Some people mistakenly think that thinking of the world as a mere illusion is just too negative; however, this is really not the case. After all, it is the truth. But, what does it really mean when we say that everything is an illusion? Does it also mean that nothing matters at all?

【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 Yellow Wallpaper【電子書籍】[ Charlotte Perkins Gilman ]
<p>"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a 6,000-word short story by American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman, first published in January 1892 in New England Magazine. It is regarded as an important early work of American feminist literature, illustrating attitudes in the 19th century toward women's physical and mental health. The story is written in the first person as a series of journal entries. The narrator is a woman whose husband ー a physician ー has confined her to the upstairs bedroom of a house he has rented for the summer. She is forbidden from working and has to hide her journal entries from him so that she can recuperate from what he has diagnosed as a "temporary nervous depression ー a slight hysterical tendency;" a diagnosis common to women in that period. The windows of the room are barred, and there is a gate across the top of the stairs, allowing her husband to control her access to the rest of the house.</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!】Making Money【電子書籍】[ Owen Johnson ]
<p>Toward the close of a pleasant September afternoon, in one of the years when the big stick of President Roosevelt was cudgeling the shoulders of malefactors of great wealth, the feverish home-bound masses which poured into upper Fifth Avenue with the awakening of the electric night were greeted by the strangest of all spectacles which can astound a metropolitan crowd harassed by the din of sounds, the fret and fury of the daily struggle which is the tyranny of New York. A very young man, of clean-cut limbs and boyish countenance, absolutely unhurried amidst the press, without a trace of preoccupation, worry, or painful mental concentration, was swinging easily up the Avenue as though he were striding among green fields, head up, shoulders squared like a grenadier, without a care in the world, so visibly delighted at the novelty of gay crowds, of towering buildings decked in electric garlands, of theatric shop-windows, that more than one perceiving this open enthusiasm smiled with a tolerant amusement. Tom Beauchamp Crocker, familiarly known as Bojo, had sent his baggage ahead, eager to enjoy the delights one en-joys at twenty-four, which the long apprenticeship of school and college is ended and the city is waiting with all the mys-tery of that uncharted dominionーThe World. He went his way with long, swinging steps, smiling from the pure delight of being alive, amazed at everything: at the tangled stream of nations flowing past him; at the prodigious number of entrancing eyes which glanced at him from under provoking brims; at the sheer flights of blazing windows, shutting out the feeble stars; at the vigor and vitality on the sidewalks; at the flooded lights from sparkling shop windows; at the roll-ing procession of incalculable wealth on the Avenue. Everywhere was the stir of returning crowds, the end of the summer's hot isolation, the reopening of gilded theaters, the thronging of hotels, and the displays of radiant shop fronts, preparing for the winter's campaign. In the crush of the Avenue was the note of home-coming, in taxicabs and coup?s piled high with luggage and brown-faced children hanging at the windows, acclaiming familiar landmarks with piping cries. Tradesmen and all the world of little business, all the world that must prepare to feed, clothe, and amuse the winter metropolis, were pouring in.</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!】From Promises To Progress【電子書籍】[ Andrew Beamon ]
<p>As a leader, you already know that designing DEI initiatives that have a measurable impact is imperative. However, you also know that the path toward an anti-racist, purpose-driven culture is riddled with potential pitfalls that can lead to DEI programs that are, at best, ineffective or, at worst, harmful. Throwing more money at the same old programs and initiatives will not lead to achieving racial equity or addressing anti-Black racism, and will result in a failure to uphold the promises and pledges made in the summer of 2020. So, where do you go from here?</p> <p>This book goes beyond general DEI approaches that shy away from addressing racial equity. It provides concrete examples and targeted questions that will enable leaders to effectively assess their current racial equity work and devise a course of action to take their racial equity efforts to the next level while avoiding common pitfalls.</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 $11 Billion Year From Sundance to the Oscars, an Inside Look at the Changing Hollywood System【電子書籍】[ Anne Thompson ]
<p>"This chronicle of 2012 is a slice of what happened during a watershed year for the Hollywood movie industry. It's not the whole story, but it's a mosaic of what went on, and why, and of where things are heading."</p> <p>What changed in one Hollywood year to produce a record-breaking box office after two years of decline? How can the Sundance Festival influence a film's fate, as it did for <em>Beasts of the Southern Wild</em> and <em>Searching for Sugar Man</em>, which both went all the way to the Oscars? Why did <em>John Carter</em> misfire and <em>The Hunger Games</em> succeed? How did maneuvers at festivals such as South by Southwest (SXSW), Cannes, Telluride, Toronto, and New York and at conventions such as CinemaCon and Comic-Con benefit <em>Amour</em>, <em>Django Unchained</em>, <em>Moonrise Kingdom</em>, <em>Silver Linings Playbook</em>, <em>Les Mis?rables</em>, <em>The Life of Pi</em>, <em>The Avengers</em>, <em>Lincoln</em>, and <em>Argo</em>? What jeopardized <em>Zero Dark Thirty</em>'s launch? What role does gender bias still play in the industry? What are the ten things that changed the 2012 Oscar race?</p> <p>When it comes to film, Anne Thompson, a seasoned reporter and critic, addresses these questions and more on her respected daily blog, <em>Thompson on Hollywood</em>. Each year, she observes the Hollywood machine at work: the indies at Sundance, the exhibitors' jockeying at CinemaCon, the international scene at Cannes, the summer tentpoles, the fall's "smart" films and festivals, the family-friendly and <em>big</em> films of the holiday season, and the glamour of the Oscars?. Inspired by William Goldman's classic book <em>The Season</em>, which examined the overall Broadway scene through a production-by-production analysis of one theatrical season, Thompson had long wanted to apply a similar lens to the movie business. When she chose 2012 as "the year" to track, she knew that box-office and DVD sales were declining, production costs were soaring, and the digital revolution was making big waves, but she had no idea that events would converge to bring radical structural movement, record-setting box-office revenues, and what she calls "sublime moviemaking."</p> <p>Though impossible to mention all 670-plus films released in 2012, Thompson includes many in this book, while focusing on the nine Best Picture nominees and the personalities and powers behind them. Reflecting on the year, Thompson concludes, "The best movies get made because filmmakers, financiers, champions, and a great many gifted creative people stubbornly ignore the obstacles. The question going forward is how adaptive these people are, and how flexible is the industry itself?"</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!】Hollywood Online Internet Movie Marketing Before and After The Blair Witch Project【電子書籍】[ Dr. Ian London ]
<p><strong><em>Hollywood Online</em> provides a historical account of motion picture websites from 1993 to 2008 and their marketing function as industrial advertisements for video and other media in the digital age.</strong></p> <p><em>The Blair Witch Project</em> is the most important example of online film promotion in cinema history. Over the last thirty years only a small number of major and independent distributors have converted internet-created buzz into box-office revenues with similar levels of success. Yet readings of how the film's internet campaignbroke new ground in the summer of 1999 tend to minimize, overlook or ignore the significance of other online film promotions. Similarly, claims that <em>Blair</em> initiated a cycle of imitators have been repeated in film publications and academic studies for more than two decades.</p> <p>This book challenges three major narratives in studies about online film marketing: Hollywood's major studios and independents had no significant relationship to the internet in the 1990s; online film promotions only took off after 1999 because of <em>Blair</em>; and Hollywood cashed-in by initiating a cycle of imitators and scaling up corporate activities online. <em>Hollywood Online</em> tests these assumptions by exploring internet marketing up to and including the film's success online (Pre-<em>Blair</em>, 1993-9), then by examining the period immediately after <em>Blair</em> (Post-<em>Blair</em>, 2000-8) which broadly coincides with the rise and decline of DVD, as well as the emergence of the social media sites MySpace, Facebook and Twitter.</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>I have struggled my entire life, to find happiness, to fit in, to find love. One day in the heat of the summer, I gave up. I screamed "Fine, I give up! I have <em>tried</em> to be PERFECT! I have tried to be nice to everyone, I have tried to "mold" into society, for WHAT? Another loveless relationship? A life in the corporate world that is sucking the life out of me? No time to be with my babies? No time just to BE!? <em>This</em> is supposed to be the American Dream?" I wondered. "This is living hell. There's no such place called "hell". Hell is what we have created here on earth. I don't know what to DO this anymore. I just want PEACE!" I screamed as my fist hit the table. Exhausted, I wept tears of frustration, tears of anger, tears of defeat. That day began my journey to find happiness. Today, I find more happy days then sad ones. Tears come from being grateful and humbled to have found an indescribable love, that has permeated every cell in my being. The storm is still raging outside, but I have found ways to steady the blows.</p> <p>These pages contain poems, thoughts, letters that I have written during the second year of my adventure. Like many of you, this journey is an arduous one, but one I believe we should share more of. We are all searching for happiness, and happiness is God, God is Love. God is no a benevolent one. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is one who the powerful have taken advantage of.</p> <p>When I started, I questioned if there was such a thing as a Divine Spirit? Was God male or female? Was Jesus real? Do we have a soul? Existential questions that have echoed through the ages. Those that have been enlightened have been my guides, my gurus, my lighthouses shining their light, showing the way.</p> <p>May your journey be one that takes you to the destination of everlasting Love.</p> <p>Hari Aum</p> <p>Peace</p> <p>Amin</p> <p>Shalom</p> <p>ek omkaar</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。
