Friction

A Biography

The Sunday Times and #1 New York Times Bestseller 'The Technological Republic is far too important to ignore' Times Literary Supplement Silicon Valley's brightest minds once collaborated with governments to advance technologies, securing the West's dominance on the global stage. But that relationship has corroded - with perilous repercussions for us all. Lifting the veil on tech giant Palantir and its broader political project, visionary co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and his long-time deputy Nicholas W. Zamiska offer a searing critique of our collective culture of complacency. To regain geopolitical power and preserve our freedoms, we must tackle the world's most pressing challenges - including the artificial intelligence arms race - together and head-on. Now is the time for the West to wake up. 'Bold and ambitious ... Essential reading' Eric Schmidt 'Fascinating' Financial Times 'A stirring manifesto' Niall Ferguson 'Provocative and insightful' Jamie Dimon

Hard Power, Soft Belief, and the Future of the West

The Technological Republic

Raus aus der (W)Ohnmacht! 
 Ob jung oder alt, weiblich, männlich oder binär; ob Paare, Singles, Groß- oder Kleinfamilien, ob mit Migrationsgeschichte oder ohne, ob arm oder reich: Wohnen geht uns alle an. Doch 
 während unsere Gesellschaft so bunt ist wie nie, stecken wir beim Thema Wohnen in den 50er-Jahren fest
 : Zwei Zimmer, Küche, Bad (in der Stadt) oder eben das Haus mit Garten (auf dem Land) – für flexible, individuelle Wohnmodelle jenseits dieser beiden Idealtypen scheinen uns die 
 Fantasie und der politische Gestaltungswille zu fehlen
 . Und das, obwohl wir angesichts explodierender Mieten und einer sich verschärfenden Wohnraumkrise vor allem in den Städten dringend eine Wende in der Wohnpolitik brauchen.
 
 Christine Hannemann, Deutschlands einzige Professorin für Wohnsoziologie, fordert in 
 Raum für Wandel 
 ein radikales Umdenken – in unseren Köpfen und in der Politik. Sie stellt innovative Formen des Zusammenlebens vor, die den tatsächlichen Bedürfnissen der Menschen gerecht werden und sozialer Isolation entgegenwirken. Und sie appelliert an jeden Einzelnen, über die eigenen Wohnbedürfnisse nachzudenken und aktiv an der Gestaltung einer neuen Wohnkultur mitzuwirken: 
 »Es ist an der Zeit, alte Mythen abzulegen und neue Wege des Wohnens zu erkunden, die ein erfülltes und gemeinschaftliches Leben ermöglichen.«

Warum wir Wohnen radikal neu denken müssen, um als Gesellschaft wieder zusammen zu wachsen

Raum für Wandel

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. Er ist ein gefragter Redner auf Technologie- und Werbekonferenzen und Kreativchef des von ihm mitgegründeten Medienunternehmens Contently, hat einen Master in Journalismus von der Columbia University und ist Fellow der Royal Society of Arts.Dieses Buch erschien im englischen Original unter dem Titel "Smartcuts: How Hackers, Innovators, and Icons Accelerate Success" (c) 2015 GABAL Verlag GmbH (P)2018 ABP Verlag

Smartcuts. Wie Querdenker und Business-Ikonen Erfolg beschleunigen

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.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. 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 thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. 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 with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Your Individual Empire

Sustainable business is no longer optional--it's the strategy that will determine who leads and who gets left behind.Climate change is not just a future threat--it's a current reality, reshaping markets, supply chains, and entire industries. Rising temperatures, resource scarcity, and mounting waste are driving regulatory pressure, investor scrutiny, and consumer demand for sustainable practices. For business leaders, this isn't just an operational challenge--it's a strategic disruption. Companies that fail to adapt risk being swept aside by forces they can no longer ignore.In The Ultimate Disruption: Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change, INSEAD professors Atalay Atasu and Luk Van Wassenhove provide an essential road map for thriving in this new era. Drawing on decades of research and real-world case studies, they show why sustainability must be treated as a core business imperative, not a compliance exercise or marketing slogan. The authors introduce a framework for rethinking strategy, redefining value propositions, and reinventing business models to integrate environmental value alongside customer utility and profit.Through compelling examples--from Polygreen's zero-waste transformation on a Greek island to Schneider Electric's global decarbonization initiatives--the book illustrates how companies are turning environmental constraints into opportunities for innovation and growth. Each chapter tackles critical steps: building the business case for sustainability; revisiting value potential; overcoming operational and scaling challenges; and leveraging partnerships, tech, and new business models to deliver shared value and profitability.Sustainability is no longer a cost--it's a competitive advantage. The Ultimate Disruption equips leaders with the strategies and tools to navigate the climate-driven transformation of business ecosystems and emerge stronger than ever.

Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change

The Ultimate Disruption

'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.

Theoretische Physik kompakt I

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

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.

Woodhead Publishing Series in Welding and Other Joining Technologies

Mechanical Joining by Material Flow provides sought-after experimental information on process design, process modeling, and joint characterization techniques for students, researchers, and engineering professionals who want to learn about advanced joining systems for lightweight materials. Chapters cover mechanical joining by plastic deformation, including clinching and self-piercing riveting, and friction-based processes, such as friction stir welding to form a mechanical joint. Though these processes are mainly used to establish metallurgical bonding, their unique characteristics and the material flow they generate has led to an increased use of these techniques for joining difficult-to-weld materials. Other sections introduce innovative technologies developed based on material flow to meet existing industry needs to join materials with different structural properties in different scales or shapes. To furnish readers with a more usefully comprehensive coverage, the team of experts behind the book has included methodological principles as well as discussions on advantages, drawbacks, and future directions of each technique, alongside application examples and case studies.
