Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing

In this thoroughly updated fourth edition, a trusted editor offers a comprehensive guide to selecting--and working with--a book publisher. For more than two decades, writers have turned to William Germano's Getting It Published as a guide to the world of serious book publishing, including university presses. A professor, author, and thirty-year veteran of the book industry, Germano knows what editors want and what writers need to do to get their work published. This fourth, thoroughly updated edition of Getting It Published accounts for new challenges facing authors and changed conditions in the publishing industry. From open access to peer review, from approaching a press to considering an agent, publishing can be confusing for authors trying to understand their options. This new edition continues to offer the clear, practicable guidance on choosing the best path to publication that has made the book such a trusted resource. Its latest revisions include an expanded chapter on proposals (and their covering emails) as well as current information on the shifting landscape of ebook publishing. But this book is more than a nuts-and-bolts guide. It takes up a writer's biggest challenges: how to frame a book-length project, shape its argument, conceive its audience, and pitch it convincingly to an editor. Getting It Published reflects the latest changes and technologies in the publishing industry but keeps its eye on what remains constant: Whether working on their first book or their fifth, writers can make their work stronger by knowing what publishers do and why they do it.

Der Historiker und Fotograf Philipp Sarasin hat seit 2009 Gross- und Megastädte rund um den Globus fotografiert - von Los Angeles über London, Berlin, Kairo, Nairobi, Dubai und Mumbai bis Beijing und Jakarta. Dabei trieb ihn die Suche nach einem 'gültigen' fotografischen Bild der Welt an, in der wir leben. Es ist eine Welt, die für mehr als die Hälfte der Menschheit eine urbane ist - Tendenz steigend.The Big City
 zeigt eine Auswahl von 120 analytisch-beobachtenden Farbbildern aus dieser weit ausgreifenden fotografischen Recherche. Sie nehmen den städtischen Raum mitsamt all seinen Bildern und Zeichen in den Blick, zusammen mit jener anonymen Architektur, die das Gesicht der Städte des 21. Jahrhunderts prägt. Sarasins Bilder sind weder Architekturfotografie im engeren Sinne noch klassische Street Photography. Sie stehen in der Tradition der Stadtfotografie, inspiriert insbesondere von künstlerischen Konzepten der Fotografen Stephen Shore, Thomas Struth und Jeff Wall.
 Die Bilder werden begleitet von einem Essay des Architekturhistorikers und Kurators Martino Stierli und einer kurzen Einführung von Philipp Sarasin selbst.

Through the theorization of leadership from various communicative perspectives, this book offers a comprehensive, multi-perspectival framework and actionable insights for building responsible, relational, and inclusive leadership practices.This book presents three distinct perspectives on how sub-disciplines in communication studies understand, utilize, and theorize the intersections between communication and leadership: (1) diversity, equity, inclusion, and access (DEIA), intercultural, and critical cultural approaches; (2) relational, discursive, and collective approaches; and (3) pedagogical and training approaches. Contributors showcase how communication theory assists in building more responsible, relational, dialogical, ethical, and meaningful leadership practices, using applied cases, scenarios, and leader profiles to demonstrate theoretical approaches in practical contexts. Each chapter features suggested further readings and questions to spark continued engagement with the issues presented.This text is suited to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in leadership communication, organizational communication, and leadership studies within communication studies, business, psychology, higher education and administration, and military leadership programs.

60 Second Memory Challenge: Volume 11

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

"Both a grief book that doesn't read like a clinician's notes and a memoir wrapped around a bigger subject, All My Dead Cats takes grief from the taboo to the universal." — BooklistHave you suffered a loss? How was your life changed by the grief you experienced? Mourning is a personal experience and shouldn't be judged. There are no do-overs in death, but there are do-betters.All My Dead Cats is not a book about pet loss. You will meet award-winning journalist and debut author s.e. smith’s cats and read small slices of their stories. Their vignettes serve as an opening to scary conversations about loss, so grief can feel less intimidating and more relatable.This is a book about grief and mourning as collective activities best undertaken in community. S.e. interviews dozens of experts—from death doulas to funeral home directors to therapists and psychologists—and discusses the different stages of grief. The shared perspectives help us understand that grief is not fixable but it can be livable. They teach us that if we have the courage, which begins with honest conversations about how we navigate grief, then we can learn how to do better.After reading you'll better understand: <ul><li>Disenfranchised grief and how you can be part of the solution and not the problem</li><li>How to be an advocate for people subjected to trauma and violence</li><li>The stages of grief and how to process your experiences</li></ul> Grief is not over once the body is neatly disposed of, the rubble of the house has been taken away in dumpsters, the final fit on the prosthesis is done, the law is passed and withstands legal challenges, or when the permanent peace is brokered. It is an ongoing shift in our relationship to the world, and one that deserves attention and care as well as time and space to be amongst fellow mourners, to whom we do not need to justify or explain, because they understand where we are.Readers will feel seen rather than being chastised for how they grieve and better understand how to process mourning--and how to help others. All My Dead Cats provides an entry point, by beginning the conversation about a beloved pet, so readers can think about the larger stakes of death and live a more fulfilled life.

This book examines the growth of hybrid and remote working following the pandemic and the diverse issues that result from this.While hybrid work is undoubtedly the 'new norm', for office-based jobs, the organisation of hybrid work arrangements continues to evolve, with many organisations attempting to adjust the balance to require workers to spend more time in the office. This book examines traditional workplace issues (productivity, work-life relations, isolation and wellbeing, meetings, and management) alongside workspace issues (virtual, office, mobile, and co- working), concluding with wider implications and potential future directions. Building on the latest research on hybrid and remote working, and including case studies from different countries, this book considers each issue from the perspective of organisations, managers, and the workers who undertake such forms of work. The author provides a balanced analysis of the topics examined, considering the diverse positive aspects of hybrid and remote working, as well as the challenges and difficulties that they can involve. He offers practical advice for hybrid workers, and those who manage them, to make these forms of work effective.This book will have wide-ranging appeal, including for professionals such as managers and human resources workers, students and academics of business, and organisational and business psychology, and anyone interested in this fascinating and fast-evolving area.
