*The breathtaking new novel from the bestselling author of Girl A*

Dean A: Day One / LF

Day One

Cinema Cultures in Contact

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. This wide-ranging intellectual and media history traces China's emergence as a modern state in which boundaries blur between art and design, education and psychological conditioning. Tracking the parallel development of set design and social engineering from the 1920s to the 1960s, Background Matters examines the concept of huanjing (environment), a neologism introduced at the turn of the twentieth century that evoked heated intellectual debates and inspired frenzied aesthetic experimentation. Weihong Bao shows how efforts to reshape the mind consolidated the idea and art of environment by advancing a new theoretical notion of set design: both as aesthetic organization across film, theater, radio, and television and as social experimentation in worldmaking across geopolitical and transnational contexts. Inventive and breathtaking in scope, this book radically rethinks environment not as an external object but as the nexus of mind, medium, and society.

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

From the wood pastures of the New Forest to the sub-arctic Cairngorms plateaux, Britain's 15 national parks are loved by millions. Created as a gift to a ravaged populace after the war, the parks were envisioned as places for people to enjoy beautiful scenery, with wildlife an incidental detail. Everywhere else in the world, however, national parks exist to protect nature. Britain's national parks are an outlier - heavily impacted by intensive farming, intentional burning, forestry, commercial shooting and even mining. Shockingly, wildlife is faring worse inside than outside the park borders.Ecologist and land manager Lee Schofield argues that in an era of environmental crisis, we can and must do better. Drawing comparisons with national parks in Europe and beyond, learning from naturalists, scientists, farmers, campaigners, park employees and visitors, he presents a pragmatic, respectful blueprint to turn things around, transforming our national parks to areas where humans and nature can find refuge together.

Executive coach and therapist Cameron Yarbrough draws on his work with Silicon Valley's elite to reveal the real emotional work behind building-and surviving-venture-driven, high-growth startups.Executive coach and therapist Cameron Yarbrough has spent years working with Silicon Valley founders at the moment when ambition and pressure collide. What he has learned is that the psychology that makes someone willing to build a company from nothing can also make it harder for them to function effectively once&nbsp;the company takes off. When entrepreneur Garry Tan was on the verge of selling his company to Twitter, mounting pressure sent him into a series of conflicts that nearly destroyed the deal. Tan knew something was driving his behavior that he couldn't see, so he turned to Yarbrough. Their work helped him understand the patterns behind his ambition and self-sabotage-and change. Today, Tan leads a venture firm managing more than $3 billion in investments and stands among Silicon Valley's most influential figures. In Foundering, Yarbrough draws on his work with Tan and many other founders to explore what happens when the qualities that help someone succeed-intensity, competitiveness, an ability to tolerate enormous risk-start working against them. Through stories of these breaking points, Foundering offers a new way to think about leadership: as the ongoing work of understanding yourself well enough to know when your greatest strengths have become liabilities. It is a book for entrepreneurs-and for anyone responsible for leading others-about becoming the kind of leader you want to be.

The Promise and Peril of Navigating Our Agentic AI Future

When Machines Act

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

What if the key to success in a world of constant change was never really grit, or persistence - but curiosity? The modern era asks us to optimise ourselves into corners and build lives that run predictably while we stall inside. And the very blueprint we've been handed for success - one of relentless specialization - is not only incomplete, but completely counterproductive to a fulfilling life.Fusing groundbreaking research, elite business insights, and thrilling studies of history's greatest polymaths, Harvard educator Dr. T. Alexander Puutio uncovers the simple truth behind resilient, fulfilling lives: they're built in loops, not ladders.From Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs, the people who shape the future don't follow straight lines - they explore widely, quit strategically, and stay flexible enough to keep becoming someone new.In a world that breaks ladders as fast as you can climb them, the code of curiosity offers a powerful model for thriving in uncertainty. Exploiting a loop of exploration, feedback and reinvention, curiosity is a force that supercharges our brain's capacity to learn and innovate. Those who can harness the cycle unlock not just a serious strategic edge, but a better way to cultivate a meaningful life.A joyful book that speaks to the meaning vacuum of modern life, The Curiosity Code upends the traditional pillars of self-development. Instead, it offers a bold, practical blueprint for navigating change, reclaiming agency, and building a life that evolves as fast as the world around you.

The Curiosity Code

'Shane is the Indiana Jones of the running world' - Damian Hall, ultra marathon runner Rejuvenate your mindset and unlock your running potential In The Lost Art of Running, Shane Benzie discovered how reconnecting with the human body can revolutionise our running and how we live our lives. Moving his focus from our 'hardware' to our 'software', he now embarks on a journey to illuminate the secrets of the human mind. Shane once again travels the globe in search of answers, discovering the minds and techniques of individuals who push the extreme limits of human performance. He meets big wave surfers and free solo climbers, observes ultra-runners crossing the mountain ranges of Kyrgyzstan, seeks wisdoms from Buddhist monks in Myanmar and even swims with orcas in the freezing depths of the Norwegian fjords. Along the way, he will introduce you to powerful tools - like body and mind mapping - that will transform the way you approach your training, bring your running into sharper focus and ensure that the best coach for your mind and body is none other than you. Part narrative, part coaching session (and always full-time adventure), Shane dives deep into the inner workings of the human mind. He shows how we can rediscover our lost ability to learn, rejuvenate our running, take ownership of our movement and, ultimately, reach our own limitless potential.
