Authoritative reference on microgreen production, nutrition, and food applications Researchers and food scientists seeking rigorous, consolidated coverage of microgreen science now have a dedicated resource. Microgreens: Production, Nutritional Compositions, and Food Applications, edited by a team of experienced food science and agricultural researchers, systematically addresses cultivation technologies, nutritional composition, bioavailability, health-promoting properties, and commercial food applications of microgreens within a single, structured volume. Coverage spans seed biology, photosynthesis, and growth mechanisms alongside modern cultivation methods including hydroponics, vertical farming, and controlled environment agriculture. Plant family-specific chapters detail nutritional profiles and bioactive compounds of Amaranthaceae, Brassicaceae, and Fabaceae microgreens. Additional sections address post-harvest handling, preservation techniques, flavor optimization, global safety standards, and regulatory frameworks for commercial production. The book also covers: <ul><li>Antioxidant activity, inflammation control, glycemic regulation, and cardiovascular support properties documented across multiple microgreen species and families</li> <li>Biotechnological advances and economic potential analyses for scaling microgreen production from small-scale farming to commercial operations</li> <li>Processing methods, preservation techniques, and flavor optimization strategies for incorporating microgreens into commercial food products</li> <li>Innovative applications in space agriculture and regenerative farming systems that extend microgreen utility beyond conventional food production</li> <li>Actionable cultivation strategies for optimizing yield, safety, and nutritional composition in both controlled environment and traditional growing settings</li></ul> Designed for food scientists, product development managers, R&amp;D specialists, nutritionists, agricultural researchers, and policymakers, this volume connects microgreen production science with commercial food applications and sustainability goals, providing the evidence base needed to advance both research programs and industry practice.

An evolved form of leadership is deeply desired and needed in the world, and many people sense this possibility within themselves. They feel called to lead with greater presence, authenticity, and heart, and to create more relational organizations and systems. What this signals is a readiness for a profound inner shift that allows them to lead from an awakened dimension of themselves--yet they often do not know how to actualize that because they lack a clear developmental pathway. A Sovereign Being provides that path by establishing a paradigm of leadership not yet fully articulated in contemporary works, even by authors such as Otto Scharmer and Frederic Laloux, who point towards the organizational potentials of advanced states of personal consciousness but do not provide a clear developmental path for people to actually attain it. This book addresses that gap by asking what it truly takes to develop as leaders who embody higher states of consciousness and, by extension, build more enlightened organizations and systems. VanderPol defines this form of leadership as evolutionary leadership.

The Way of The Evolutionary Leader

A Sovereign Being

What if companies do not fail because they ignore the future, but because they prepare for it? Business history is usually told through reassuring stories about complacency. Kodak failed to understand digital photography. Nokia missed the smartphone. Detroit underestimated electric vehicles. The lesson appears obvious: pay attention, embrace change and invest early. There is only one problem. The story is often wrong. The global automobile industry did not ignore the future. For more than a decade, its leaders talked incessantly about electrification, autonomous driving, connectivity, software and shared mobility. They invested enormous sums, acquired technology companies, hired software engineers, launched electric vehicles and reorganized themselves around the future they believed was coming. And yet many became weaker. Poisoned asks why? Drawing on more than two dozen interviews across the automotive world, Bryan Reimer and Magnus Lindkvist examine an industry in which almost every important prediction contained some truth, yet the resulting picture of the future proved profoundly misleading. Electric vehicles arrived, but as part of a much larger system involving batteries, charging infrastructure, industrial policy, software and China. Cars became connected, but this changed the economics and architecture of the industry in unexpected ways. Automation advanced, but not along the neat trajectory that had been forecast. Technologies expected to reinforce one another began competing for capital, talent and management attention. The problem was not stupidity, complacency or a failure to notice change. It was incompleteness. Human beings simplify the future in predictable ways. Organizations then magnify those distortions through their structures, incentives, histories and identities. Poisoned traces how this happens and introduces five organizational poisons -- Time, Status, Identity, True Lies and the Edges -- that can turn sensible preparation for the future into a source of strategic weakness. The automobile industry provides the book's central case study, but its predicament is increasingly universal. Technology, geopolitics, capital, consumer behaviour and business models are colliding across almost every established industry. The companies most at risk may therefore be neither the ignorant nor the complacent. They may be the ones confidently preparing for a future that is real, important -- and dangerously incomplete. Poisoned offers a different way to think about disruption. The challenge is not simply to identify the next big trend. It is to see how technologies, institutions, incentives and behaviours interact; to recognise what the dominant story leaves out; and to prevent yesterday's assumptions about tomorrow from becoming today's strategy.

Why preparing for the future can destroy your business

Organizations in Context

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.

Business and Society in the Fourth Industrial Revolution

Modern leaders face intense pressure to move fast and look decisive, often resorting to rapid restructuring and sudden pivots to signal strength. But this obsession with speed is a trap. It forces executives to rely on past assumptions rather than actual observation, turning experience into hasty judgment. When you act on incomplete fragments - like anecdotal evidence or surface-level dashboards -&nbsp; you inadvertently trigger a cycle of temporary fixes, organizational fatigue and strategic drift. This concise book introduces a critical discipline for the modern era: pausing to see an organization clearly before attempting to change it. Moving beyond abstract theory, Clarity Before Change provides executives with practical tools-like the "Organization Twin"-to map capabilities without bias and replace organizational blame with productive curiosity. Far from preaching hesitation, this research-backed guide delivers a blueprint for precise, intelligent transformation, showing that the ultimate competitive advantage is strategic composure under complexity.

Why leaders must see clearly before they act

Clarity before Change

For more than a century, the United States has relied on the income tax to fund government and shape distributional policy. Designed to tax both labor and capital, the system has drifted from that ambition. The Income Tax Collapse offers a clear, accessible account of how this shift occurred.
At the center of the book is the set of techniques known as "buy, borrow, die", longstanding features of tax law that allow wealthy households to accumulate and spend capital income while reporting little or none of it. These practices now shape outcomes for entrepreneurs, business owners, workers, mixed work-wealth households, and the wealthiest citizens.
Looking ahead, the book identifies the structural pressures driving the system and presents realistic reform options, from adjustments to realization rules to broader shifts such as mark-to-market, wealth taxation, or progressive spending taxes.
