Werde ein Wachstumsarchitekt

From Ann Handley, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Everybody Writes, comes a smart, timely, clear-eyed guide to knowing when to speed up, when to slow down, and when the shortcut costs more than it saves. You already know how to go fast. What nobody taught you is when not to. In ASAP: As SLOW As Possible, Ann Handley rebels against the false urgency baked into modern work and life—and shows you how to recognize Slowments: the moments when slowing down is not weakness, hesitation, or delay. It's the smarter move. Because when everyone has access to the same shortcuts, the real edge is knowing when not to take them. With research, brain science, vivid storytelling, and Handley’s signature wit, ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals the hidden speed traps that weaken our judgment, creativity, and original thinking—especially in an age when AI makes the fastest path feel like the smartest one—and gives you a practical way to know when speed is serving you and when it’s taking you farther from what matters. You'll discover: <ul><li>The Hasty Progress Illusion—why motion can feel like mastery, even when nothing lasting is taking hold</li><li>The ASAP Matrix—how to know exactly when to autopilot, when to pause, and when a moment deserves more of you</li><li>The six Slowments in life and in work—the pivotal moments when slowing down changes what happens next</li><li>How to protect your judgment in a world eager to outsource it</li><li>When choosing analog leads to sharper ideas, wiser decisions, more creative approaches, stronger relationships, and meaningful work</li><li>How to stop confusing speed with progress—and start choosing the pace the moment actually requires</li></ul> ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals slowness as a generative force and for the first time gives you a way to harness life’s most important slow moments. Not by doing less, opting out, or becoming the kind of person who ferments things in a shed. But by knowing when speed helps—and when it hollows out the very thing you hoped it would serve. It’s time to choose the long road when the shortcut costs too much.

When to Take the Long Road in a Shortcut World

ASAP: As Slow as Possible

Unlock Your Unique Edge and Transform Your World of Work

Human Mode

All around us are ever-evolving strings of chain reactions, of bonds forged and broken, of connections made and unmade in less than the blink of an eye. In Chain Reaction, Professor Ijeoma Uchegbu dives into the chemistry that underpins our everyday existence. With warmth and personal anecdotes about the chemistry that has shaped her life, Uchegbu takes us on a journey exploring how our bodies are held together by weak chemical bonds, how our constituent molecules start to break up once our heart stops beating, how our food is stitched together by a careful exploitation of chemical bonds at the interface between water and oil, and exactly what the fibres in our clothes are made of. To be human is to be a walking chemical reaction, as our individual cells are all powered by careful co-ordination of chemistry. From hairdressing disasters and laundry mishaps to life-saving medicines and kitchen experiments, this eye-opening book reveals that chemical processes are all around us, defining our interactions with the world we live in. This is a story that's both universal and personal, grand and intimate, and it will change the way you see everything.

How Chemistry Shapes Our Lives and Why We Should Care

Intelligenter arbeiten und mehr erreichen.Smartcuts sind unkonventionelle Verhaltensmuster, mit denen Menschen und Unternehmen in unwahrscheinlich kurzer Zeit unglaubliche Dinge zuwege gebracht haben.Der New-Yorker Journalist Shane Snow nimmt zahlreiche Beispiele unter die Lupe und stellt neuen Prinzipien vor, die erklären, wie es möglich ist, dass so viele der erfolgreichsten Menschen und Unternehmen der Welt mit so wenig so viel erreichen konnten.* Warum ziehen manche Unternehmen in wenigen Monaten Millionen Kunden an, während andere floppen?* Wie schafften es Alexander der Große, YouTube-Phänomen Michelle Phan und Tonight-Show-Moderator Jimmy Fallon, sich in kürzerer Zeit an die Spitze zu katapultieren, als die meisten von uns auf die nächste bescheidene Gehaltserhöhung warten müssen?* Wie setzen sich schnell wachsende Unternehmen, Weltklasse-Herzchirurgen und Underdog-Vermarkter von der Masse ab?In allen Bereichen gibt es Querdenker, die wie Computerhacker neue und bessere Wege finden, um Erstaunliches zu bewerkstelligen.Shane Snow widerlegt so manches vermeintliches Erfolgsrezept und zeigt:* warum es zwecklos ist, die "Mühlen zu durchlaufen",* warum Schulkinder keine Multiplikationstabellen auswendig zu lernen brauchen,* warum es einfacher ist, ein großes anstelle eines kleinen Unternehmens aufzubauen.Mit "Smartcuts" kann jeder von uns seine Gewohnheiten überdenken und seinen Erfolg beschleunigen.Shane Snow ist New Yorker Journalist und Gründer von Internetfirmen.

Smartcuts. Wie Querdenker und Business-Ikonen Erfolg beschleunigen

We have always looked up at the sky and wondered.The desire to explore and understand what lies beyond us is at the heart of scientific discovery. Ever since the ancient Babylonians tracked celestial objects on clay tablets, the search for meaning in an infinitely vast universe has been a profoundly human pursuit.In this spellbinding book, Dr Sarah Alam Malik takes us on a journey through the discoveries that shaped our perception of the cosmos. From the Earth-centred worldview of Aristotle and the Copernican revolution to Isaac Newton unifying the terrestrial and celestial under the law of gravity. Each breakthrough is a testament to humanity's determination to peek behind the curtain of our world to examine what's underneath.Our ability to imagine and seek out a much grander and more mysterious reality drives us towards an incredible future. From the fiery deaths of faraway suns to the complexities of the subatomic, this is the story of what we've found and how they continue to change us.A Brief History of the Universe (and our place in it)&nbsp;is a fascinating story of discovery and a beautiful celebration of our endless curiosity.

'Equal parts gripping and scholarly... a timely book that gets to the heart of contemporary society' Katy Hessel, Sunday Times 'Utterly fascinating, beautifully written, scholarly yet entertaining' Joanna Lumley A pioneering study into how we interpret faces and what they reveal about us, from a world-renowned cultural historian What's in a face? The face is the only part of the body where all the senses come together and, over the course of human history, has come to represent who we are as individuals. We unlock our phones with facial recognition; we have our faces stamped in our passports; and although our faces may change over the course of our lives - whether through ageing, accident, illness or lifestyle - they remain a foundational marker of identity. In The Face, cultural historian Fay Bound-Alberti explores the ways humans have interpreted faces and how they have shaped our ideas of morality, social hierarchy, psychology and so much more, revealing some of the biases that inform our everyday lives. She charts how new technologies and cultural innovations have transformed our conception of selfhood over time - from the growth of portraiture in the Renaissance and the mass production of mirrors and photography in the nineteenth century, to twenty-first century developments, such as digital avatars and face transplants. Bringing together a wealth of fascinating research, interviews and illuminating personal narratives, Bound-Alberti probes beneath the surface to ask what our faces really say about us.

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.
