Retail Marketing in the Modern Age

An eye-opening account of how the data-center boom is pushing our planet past its breaking point Underlying our seamless access to AI, cryptocurrency, and unlimited cloud storage is a hulking, costly physical infrastructure. Massive data centers full of energy-hungry chips and processors power everything we do online. Scrambling to meet dubious market demand, the tech giants have made our planet a bargaining chip in the next great race for a market monopoly. In Hyperscale, journalist Paris Marx uncovers the excesses of hyperscale data processing. He exposes the deceptive, exploitative ways tech companies are syphoning energy and resources from vulnerable communities in their pursuit of digital power, abandoning the pretense of social responsibility. Amid energy shortages and tech-induced battles over drinking water, Marx makes a powerful case for technology that promotes the social good over the bottom lines of tech billionaires. He joins the incredible efforts of people and social movements pushing back against the profit-driven interests of Big Tech, illuminating a path toward the sustainable future we all deserve. The AI boom and its infrastructural demands have accelerated our many modern catastrophes. With razor-sharp reporting and incisive analysis, Marx shows us that the greatest threat is not the specter of AI overlords but a global environmental disaster already in the making.

Organizational Behaviour

This book presents a new perspective on the debate around legitimacy, politics and constitutional law in Supreme Courts. Moving away from the troubling perception that Supreme Courts are trampling on the wrong side of the law/politics divide, it accepts and defends the critical claim that constitutional law is intrinsically and inescapably politics: in style, substance and outcome. It explains what is involved in that claim and recommends a more nuanced and compelling account than it is caricatured to be. The book proceeds to demonstrate how the legal and judicial process can proceed if the law-is-politics critique is taken seriously. Insisting that it cannot be business as usual, the author offers a series of constructive proposals about how constitutional law and judicial decision-making can continue in anything like their present format and style. Recognising that a more radical approach could be taken to the way in which democracy might re-organise, the book runs with the idea that it is possible to incorporate and accommodate the law-is-politics argument within a governmental system of constitutional democracy that resembles closely what now occurs. In that sense, the book is both critical and constructive as well as principled and pragmatic.

The Promises of Giants

In diesem Buch kommen 17 Ostdeutsche aller Generationen aus verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen zu Wort, von der Influencerin bis zum ehemaligen Bundespräsidenten, vom Popmusiker bis zur Filmregisseurin. Sie erzählen ihre Sicht auf das Erreichte und Unerreichte in dieser Region, die sie meist ihre Herkunft und oft ihre Heimat nennen oder mit der sie sich zumindest teilweise identifizieren. Denn alle eint, dass Ostdeutschland eine Rolle in ihrer Biografie spielt, sei es durch die frühe Prägung in der DDR geborener oder eine späte Zuwendung zur eigenen Ost-Identität im Zuge aktueller gesellschaftlicher Debatten. Es sind persönliche Einsichten und pointierte Draufsichten, private Erlebnisse und berufliche Erforschungen, die in ihrer Vielfalt dieses Buch so wertvoll machen, vor allem durch die Perspektiven verschiedener Generationen. Gerade in der Debatte um Gegenwart und Zukunft der Region und die Frage nach einer ostdeutschen Identität leistet die Veröffentlichung einen wichtigen Beitrag.

Was uns ausmacht

Die DNA des Ostens

Sustainable correctional culture is not created by chance. It is built, maintained, and defended every day-one detail at a time.

Correctional facilities are among the most complex and high-risk environments in public safety. Jails are responsible for protecting staff, maintaining order, safeguarding inmates, and preserving public trust-all while facing staffing shortages, mental health crises, digital contraband, and increasing scrutiny.

Yet many facilities fail for the same reason: small lapses in discipline, professionalism, and accountability are ignored until disorder becomes normalized.
Broken Windows Behind Bars: Transforming Jail Operations Through Order and Accountability applies the widely recognized Broken Windows Theory to the unique realities of jail and detention operations. Written by Shaun Klucznik, a career corrections professional since 1997 and President of the American Jail Association (2025-2026), this book provides a clear, experience-based framework for building sustainable order inside correctional facilities.

Klucznik draws from decades of jail leadership, staff training, and operational command to show how minor infractions-unchecked sanitation issues, inconsistent counts, lax supervision, and silent peer culture-create conditions for violence, contraband, escapes, lawsuits, and institutional collapse. More importantly, he shows how correcting small details consistently creates professionalism that endures.

This book goes beyond theory. Through real-world case studies, leadership analysis, and practical tools, readers learn how to:Apply Broken Windows principles to jail operations and detention facilities
Build accountability through peer correction and supervisor presence
Strengthen staff morale while reducing burnout and turnover
Prevent security failures before they escalate into crises
Integrate training, policy, and accreditation into lasting culture
Use technology as a support tool without undermining human judgment



Broken Windows Behind Bars is written for jail administrators, detention officers, supervisors, sheriffs, policymakers, criminal justice students, and public safety leaders who want practical solutions-not temporary programs.

This is not a book about punishment. It is a book about professionalism, safety, and ethical responsibility. When order is enforced consistently, jails become safer for staff, more stable for inmates, and more credible to the communities they serve.

This book addresses the critical issue of empowering disabled people and enhancing their wellbeing through inclusive, innovative, and value-sensitive assistive technology. Assistive technology is particularly relevant today for a large share of the world's population; approximately two billion individuals who need assistive technology have no sustainable access to it. Access to assistive technology can help prevent and overcome disability-related disadvantages, empowering individuals to engage socially and economically in activities of their choice, making it possible for them to enjoy a fulfilling life. Emphasis is placed on integrating digital solutions with traditional approaches to advance the development and delivery of assistive technology. In contrast, digital assistive technology is not a panacea; innovative assistive technology interventions wield the possibility of new solutions to existing or emerging challenges in the assistive technology space. They can be particularly powerful in low-resource settings, which are currently problematic in matching demand with effective solutions. This book is intended mainly for academic, professional, and educational purposes. The content herein reflects research-based insights, cultural perspectives, and lived experiences related to disability empowerment and assistive technologies.
