A fascinating new take on the world of Shakespeare.

Eastaway R: Much Ado About Numbers

Much Ado About Numbers

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.

The Illusion of Choice

Humanity's most spectacular era yet is increasingly within reach.So why are we doing everything we can to hold it back?The bestselling author of The Rational Optimist delivers a daring vision of the future - one that is potentially dazzling, but only if we stop sleepwalking into self-inflicted decline.We're on the brink of a truly spectacular explosion of productivity and prosperity, argues Matt Ridley, thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence, material science and genomic knowledge that is unprecedented in its scope and implications. With characteristic wit and ferocity, he confronts the irrational pessimism that dominates public discourse and examines the bureaucratic bloat, regulatory overreach, ideological superstition and crony capitalism that stand in the way.Optimistic in conclusion but unsparing in its analysis, The Flourishing is a rousing call to achieve and innovate by refusing to settle for a merely adequate future when a magnificent one is within reach.

The Radical Pessimist

Lead a business that runs without you and outlasts you. Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time gave entrepreneurs the blueprint to get unstuck and reclaim their freedom. Now he's back with the lesson that separates founders who scale from founders who stall: learning to let go - and why doing it right changes everything. Let Go to Grow is the book every ambitious leader needs but won't see coming. The entrepreneurs who build great companies without burning out don't win because the market cooperates or their strategy is perfect. They win because they stop white-knuckling their business. Most founders respond to pressure the only way they know how: push harder, do more. Martell shows you why that kills your potential and why real leverage starts the moment you decide to change yourself before you change the business. His three levels of letting go rewire how you lead yourself, your team, and your company so it scales without you carrying it. In this book, you'll discover how to become a "full-spectrum leader," someone who leads with calm authority, holds high standards, and builds systems that grow beyond them. You'll learn: <ul><li>The mindset shift that turns your team into "owners" who chase outcomes and not paychecks.</li><li>How to extend trust at scale and watch your people rise to meet it.</li><li>How to embed culture so deep your team carries it forward without you in the room, and a full toolkit of frameworks to drive excellence at every level.</li></ul> You cannot grow a company you refuse to release. And you cannot release it until you grow. Dan Martell shows you how to do both at once. Let go without losing control, build a company where people think like owners, and lead a movement that scales with or without you in the driver's seat. Let Go to Grow is the next evolution. It starts with you.

How Great Leaders Win by Doing Less and Trusting More

Let Go to Grow

"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>

How Humans Tried, Failed, Succeeded, and Built Our World

Lost Worlds

'An outstanding dual biography... Dinshaw's book is profoundly entertaining, startling in its depth, and a necessary cautionary tale about the human cost of political division' Daily Telegraph Two old friends end up on opposite sides of the English Civil War, in this dazzling history from the acclaimed author of Outlandish Knight At the Inns of Court, the intellectual, literary, and social heart of early 17th century London, many pivotal friendships were forged: few closer than that of Bulstrode Whitelocke and Edward (Ned) Hyde. Both young men were lively characters, industrious, well-connected, principled and optimistic. They dreamed of reforming the government of Charles I, a young court with age-old problems, by restoring the traditional harmony of Crown and Parliament. This is the story of how their hopes climbed, overreached, and fell into an abyss of relentless civil war. This highly original, vivid and engaging book recreates the atmosphere, drama, players and ideas of what is arguably England's (and Britain's) most crucial and traumatic formative period. Through the stories of his two protagonists, Minoo Dinshaw shows how subtle religious and political differences, careful personal judgments, and mere happenstance combined to place these two friends, most reluctantly, on opposite sides in the English Civil Wars. They would both survive, unlike many thousands of others, into old age; both would become influential historians, shaping how we still understand the conflicts of their age. But their friendship, like the once hopeful country in which it had first flourished, would be forever changed: permanently marred by what both men believed to be senseless and unnecessary civil strife.

The Little Book for Mocktail Lovers

A ground-breaking look at the science of love and connection - and an urgent corrective to some of our most fundamental assumptions about attraction. 'In a world saturated with cynical advice about dating and gender, this book is a revelation.' DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and The Power of Regret 'One of the most joyfully uplifting antidotes to 21st-century gloom.' THE TIMES --------------------- We're told that what men and women desire from relationship is different - he's looking for novelty, she's looking for commitment; he's concerned with looks, she's concerned with status. We're told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality - where some are 10s and others are 2s; where some people are marriage material and others are wired for promiscuity. But this narrative is unscientific. Such ideas have their roots in a branch of science called evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades its ideas have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative that inspires despair and anxiety - and, in its most extreme form, these ideas have been hijacked in the service of misogyny and violence. But the truth about human attraction - and the way evolution plays out in our romantic lives - is much more interesting and optimistic. Bonded by Evolution offers a radical new picture of the roots of enduring chemistry. Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology and psychology and informed by his pathbreaking research and original experiments at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, psychology professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding - and, often, creating - a compatible relationship. Once we understand how ancestral humans sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build a clearer - and brighter - picture of how attraction, sex and relationships really work. --------------------- More praise for Bonded by Evolution: 'Profound and pragmatic, suggesting an entirely different approach to the study - and pursuit - of love.' ERIC KLINENBERG, co-author of Modern Romance 'Rarely have scientific rigor and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions . . . Bonded by Evolution presents an optimistic new paradigm, one that provides clear guidance for romantic success.' ELI FINKEL, author of The All or Nothing Marriage

What We’ve Got Wrong About Love and Connection

Bonded by Evolution

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

This volume presents an empirically rich and theoretically grounded exploration of the dynamic and emergent interplay between Design and Science and Technology Studies (STS). Tracing the interwoven histories of both fields, Alex Wilkie and Mike Michael explore their evolving interrelations. Whether as a substantive topic, a source of methodological innovation, or a novel model of engagement with users and publics, Design has come to influence how research is conducted in STS. Conversely, STS now informs ongoing developments in Design's research practices, providing a rich source of concepts, an analytically inspiring resource, and a means to empirical complexification. Cutting across an array of conceptual, methodological and substantive registers, Enfolding Design and STS develops a new treatment of recent interdisciplinary engagements where knowledge production, interventionist methods and practices of making are brought together, re-thought and transformed at both theoretical and empirical levels. Along the way, the authors draw on a diverse set of case studies including examples of environmental, biomedical, computational and domestic processes, and a variety of theoretical framings such as post-Actor-Network Theory, assemblage theory, Whiteheadian process philosophy, and ontological aesthetics. Building on these discussions, this book offers a fresh topological perspective that, tentatively and heuristically, provides a conceptual vocabulary and a methodological toolkit for navigating the unfolding interdisciplinary mutualities of STS and Design

Enfolding Design and STS

Zweisprachige Ausgabe mit Anmerkungen des Übersetzers, Bericht aus der Übersetzerwerkstatt und einem einführenden Essay von Ingeborg Boltz.

Don Pedro kehrt mit Benedikt und Claudio aus einem Krieg, an dem sein Halbbruder Don Juan auf feindlicher Seite beteiligt war, an den Hof Leonatos zurück. 
Man sucht Zerstreuung: Beatrice und Benedikt verbergen ihre Zuneigung hinter Wortgefechten. Claudio gesteht Benedikt seine Liebe zu Hero. Diese wird von Don Juan verleumdet: Borachio, Don Juans Diener, fingiert vor Claudio eine nächtliche Liebesszene, in der eine Kammerfrau als seine Geliebte Hero ausgegeben wird. Claudio fällt auf das falsche Spiel herein und klagt Hero vor dem Traualtar als Hure an. Vor Entsetzen fällt sie in tiefe Ohnmacht. 
Beatrice und Benedikt wollen Heros Unschuld beweisen, bis dahin wird sie offiziell für tot erklärt. Die trotteligen Beamten Schlehwein und Holzapfel verhaften Don Juans Diener Borachio, als dieser mit seinen nächtlichen Eskapaden prahlt. Claudio glaubt am vermeintlichen Tod Heros Schuld zu sein. Leonato fordert ihn daher auf, eine unbekannte Tochter seines Bruders zu heiraten, die sich als Hero entpuppt. Auch Beatrice und Benedikt heiraten, während der flüchtige Don Juan als verhaftet gemeldet wird.
