Iyer Pico: Learning from Silence / B

Learning from Silence

Finding clarity and calm in a world of mounting uncertainty

An adoptive parent and historian delves into the differences of families made by law, not biology-- and shows us the deep value of those differences Adoption touches on some of our most vexing social questions, about race and sexuality, abortion rights, economic inequality, even foreign policy and global poverty. More than that, it prods us in tender places, reminding us of our own questions about belonging and separation, identity and alienation, our worries about what is determined by fate and what is freely choose. Blending personal memoir, history, and broader reflection on American culture, Ordinary Days and Tender Places offers a fresh take on adoption. As an historian and an adoptive parent, Bendroth takes seriously the criticisms and the personal pain many adoptees face, but she also invites readers to take a bigger view. This book asks us to turn the mirror on ourselves and consider the peculiarities of what we consider “normal” family life. In the end, our questions and controversies obscure a basic fact: raising children born to someone else is a time-honored human practice. In the past and in many cultures today, our modern American ideal, the two-parent biologically-related nuclear family, is an oddity. Within the long history of humanity our ideas about kinship and our beliefs about what constitutes a “normal” household are surprisingly narrow and, in the end, not all that helpful. Bendroth introduces readers to new ways of thinking about adoption, exploring the history of American families and children as well as fascinating findings by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists about kinship practices, genetics and inheritance, even motherhood itself. This is, in other words, a book about adoption and much more. It is an invitation to readers to reflect on their own lives, to think deeply about our human need to connect, to love, and belong.

How We Talk (and Don't Talk) About Adoption in America

Ordinary Days and Tender Places

Modern Studies in European Law

The European Union undoubtedly has and continues to face a period of crisis and this book assesses this critical juncture in its history. It adopts a unique multidisciplinary approach drawing on philosophy, social theory, and law, and focusing on the European institutional framework and EU law on free movement and citizenship. This perspective leads to the conclusion that central to the EU's problems is the non-emergence of a European people. This multifaceted approach also allows the author to suggest how the EU might move positively beyond its current challenges. This book provides a genuinely fresh and innovative comment on a much-examined question.

Between Immunity and Recognition

The Search for a European People

You've heard of IQ and EQ. But in today's world, they're no longer enough. We need the Agility Quotient (AQ). In a time defined by nonstop disruptions, when jobs vanish overnight, industries evolve in months, and yesterday's rules no longer apply, AQ-the Agility Quotient-is the intelligence you need to handle change, uncertainty, and the unknown. The good news is that, with the right toolkit, you can grow your agility and learn to navigate a world of increasing instability. Drawing on leadership coach and former venture capitalist Liz Tran's work with over 200 successful founders, executives, and dozens of companies and organizations, AQ reveals a model for how high-performing teams and managers adapt to uncertainty. Tran will show you how to cultivate 'durable skills,' essential human abilities that remain valuable no matter what the future holds. With the book's Agility Archetype assessment, the book personalises the AQ journey to every kind of individual. No matter their experience level or ambitions. Written with conversational flair and practical advice, AQ offers readers a wealth of resources, including:<ul><li>Tools to rebuild confidence for when you're bombarded by life's curveballs or feeling burned out Actionable steps for making a big shift, even when you feel stuck.</li></ul><ul><li>Advice on finding clarity in moments of professional turbulence.</li></ul> AQ also takes readers behind the scenes at companies, from NVIDIA and Microsoft to rising start-ups like Lex, to see AQ in action. You'll also meet trailblazers like Maggie Lena Walker, the first female bank president in American history, and Emile-Maurice Hermès, who transformed Hermès into a global luxury powerhouse. As the adage goes, 'the only certain thing is change.' AQ is the critical intelligence for our unpredictable future.
