A Four Billion Year Conversation

A bold and brilliant new collection of essays by one of our most important writers of life in America today This new collection gathers together for the first time sixteen essays by one of our most revered chroniclers of life in America, a landmark commentary on family, faith, community, and the threats of modernization. Ranging from the devastating effects of war on children to the endless problems of industrialism and the ubiquitous need for connection and community, Dispatches From Rural America captures a country isolated from its land and beginnings, too focused on mass production and output, and perilously estranged from the spiritual centers that make up the foundation of our lives.&nbsp; On the cusp of the fiftieth anniversary of Berry’s seminal book The Unsettling of America, Dispatches From Rural America is urgent and vital reading in this time of political chaos from one of our most important writers.

Vergessen macht glücklicher: Wie unser Gedächtnis wirklich funktioniert 
 
 Unter Gedächtnis verstehen wir für gewöhnlich die Erlebnisse und Eindrücke aus der Vergangenheit, die sich vollständig und intakt in uns einschreiben und irgendwo in unserem Gehirn aufbewahrt werden - als Erinnerungen. Tatsächlich funktioniert unser Gedächtnis aber ganz anders. Jedes Mal, wenn wir eine Erinnerung abrufen, rekonstruieren und konstruieren wir das Erinnerte neu und passen es an die Situation an, in der es gerade gebraucht wird. Wir lassen weg, fügen hinzu, ändern Details, blenden aus. Diese unbewussten Verformungen sind jedoch kein Defekt - sie sind nützlich, ja lebensnotwendig. 
 Ciara Greene und Gillian Murphy nehmen den Leser mit in die neueste Forschung, räumen mit gängigen Mythen auf und erklären, wie unser Gedächtnis wirklich funktioniert.
 
 Die Forschung hat gezeigt, dass unser Gedächtnis kein perfektes Abbild unseres Lebens abspeichert. Das mag auf den ersten Blick enttäuschend klingen: Wozu soll das Gedächtnis denn sonst gut sein, wenn es nicht korrekt aufzeichnet, was wir erleben und tun? Wenn wir uns jedoch fragen, wozu das Gedächtnis dient, könnte sich die Sache etwas anders darstellen. Genau wie unser Körper hat sich unser Gehirn über Jahrmillionen hinweg entwickelt. Die Evolutionstheorie geht davon aus, dass Eigenschaften, die die natürliche Auslese überlebt haben, vermutlich eine Anpassung darstellen und damit eine Art Überlebens- oder Reproduktionsvorteil mit sich bringen...
 Unser Gedächtnisapparat birgt gewisse Herausforderungen, doch er hat auch viele Vorzüge, weil er uns zum Beispiel hilft, eine kohärente Identität aufrechtzuerhalten, soziale Beziehungen zu pflegen und uns mögliche Zukunftsszenarien bildhaft auszumalen. Die mentalen Fähigkeiten, die uns dies ermöglichen, haben sich in der fernen Vergangenheit entwickelt, doch sie helfen uns noch heute, uns an ganz neue Situationen anzupassen.

Wie unser Gehirn Erinnerungen überschreibt – und warum das lebenswichtig ist

Das fühlende Gedächtnis

How the financialization of healthcare has eroded the quality of care, driven up prices, and worsened health inequalities Financial actors and healthcare leaders increasingly view healthcare organizations as financial assets to be bought, sold, and managed for maximum profit, regardless of the effects on patient care. Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital reveals how the federal government enables financial opportunism in healthcare and offers bold ideas for overhauling a failed system. Rosemary Batt and Eileen Appelbaum provide a unique analysis of the financialization of healthcare, a process in which a growing proportion of the healthcare economy is owned and controlled by the financial sector. Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on financial machinations and the earnings derived from them rather than revenue generated from patient care. The extent to which financial calculations overshadow the healthcare mission depends importantly on institutional legacies, reimbursement rules, and the failure of regulatory oversight. Batt and Appelbaum show how differences in regulations and financing rules shape whether financial actors can penetrate distinct healthcare segments—from hospitals, nursing homes, and ambulatory care to physician specialties, home health, hospice, and autism services. Nonprofit healthcare is not immune from this financial logic. Evidence based, accessible, and informed by real-world examples, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital sheds critical light on how financial deregulation coupled with the relaxation of health, tax, anti-trust, and labor laws have allowed financially driven actors to exploit public funds for private gain at the expense of healthcare organizations, patients, communities, labor, and taxpayers.

"Lost Worlds convinces us of the value of slowing down to recognize the tremendous diversity of the human past. But he presses hard against the conclusion that there was any direction or pattern behind its complexity." —The Wall Street Journal“A spellbinding tour de force!” —Walter Scheidel, author of What Is Ancient History?“This is non-fiction storytelling at its finest.” —Eric H. Cline, author of 1177 B.C.The creator of the hit podcast Tides of History offers a new look at humanity’s deep past, showing us how our world was built not by inevitability, but by trial and error on a global scale.There’s a familiar story about us humans: we went from hunting and gathering to farming, wandering bands to villages and cities, clans and chieftains to states and kings. But Lost Worlds offers a new narrative of humanity’s deep history. Here beloved podcast host Patrick Wyman focuses on the 10,000-year span between the end of the Ice Age and the decline of the Bronze Age—the period when civilization as we understand it emerged, introducing social hierarchies, urbanism, complex political organizations, and the written word.In this nuanced retelling, human progress is no longer a straight march from caves to cities: Farming didn’t always replace foraging, villages didn’t automatically spark agriculture, and cities didn’t necessitate rigid hierarchies. For thousands of years, humans merely improvised. By the end of the Bronze Age, the world had become unrecognizable: mammoths and giant sloths replaced by cattle and sheep, scattered nomadic bands replaced by millions living in cities, and farming on nearly every continent. Wyman argues that the rise of states and steady food production wasn’t inevitable, but rather, the outcome of countless choices that reshaped the planet and made us who we are today.Combining cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, Lost Worlds explores: <ul><li>A Sweeping New History of the Ancient World: Discover how early societies rose, adapted, and collapsed across thousands of years of human history.</li><li>The Archaeology Revolution: Ancient DNA, climate science, and new excavation methods are revealing how prehistoric people lived, migrated, and fought.</li><li>From Ice Age Hunters to Early Civilizations: Follow the dramatic transformation that led from nomadic foragers to farming, cities, and powerful states.</li><li>Why Societies Rise—and Fall: Learn how climate change, migration, population growth, and conflict shaped the fate of early civilizations.</li></ul>

Most people think they listen well, but they rarely do - not at this level. Listening this way is a radical act. Nancy Kline has identified 10 behaviours that form a system called a Thinking Environment(TM), a model of human interaction that dramatically improves the way people think, and thus the way they work and live. Nancy Kline's original bestselling Time to Think is the definitive authority on the topic. Listening - the quality of people's attention for each other - is the core of the method. The power of effective listening is recognised as the essential tool of good management, and in our day-to-day lives. In Time to Think, Nancy Kline describes how we can achieve this, and presents a step-by-step guide that can be used in any situation.Whether you want to have more productive meetings, solve business problems, create bold strategies, or build stronger relationships, this book offers you a new world of possibilities. From blue chip companies developing high-powered teams to individuals seeking personal growth, a Thinking Environment has come to mean transformation of the highest quality.Contents include: - Part One: A Thinking Environment - Part Two: Creating a Thinking Environment - Part Three: The Thinking Society - Part Four: A Thinking Future
