McNicoll E: Unapologetic Love Story / LF

Unapologetic Love Story

For American workers, the social contract is broken. This book gives a firsthand view of where the breaks occurred, and a prescription for rebuilding it to give workers their due. With AI making the decisions and CEOs and moguls making the money, sometimes it seems that most workers today might as well be drones. If not for a long string of missed opportunities over the last 50 years, it might have been different. In Roads Not Taken, Thomas Kochan reviews the turning points where the social contract fractured and broke, reducing workers’ voices as well as their compensation, benefits, and status. And in the lessons learned from these historical examples, he identifies the foundation for building a new labor relations system that ensures workers will share in the benefits from AI and puts America on course for an innovative and durable social contract at work. As a longtime advisor to government, labor, and management leaders, Kochan offers an eyewitness perspective on the mounting mistakes made in America’s labor relations system beginning, roughly, with Ronald Reagan’s firing of striking air traffic controllers in 1981. His book makes a strong case for new strategies on the part of labor unions and other worker advocacy groups, business, and government—strategies not wedded to the legacy labor law and practice that have failed American workers for so long. Recasting the social contract on this basis, Kochan insists, is key to rebuilding our democracy and its institutions after the damage wrought in recent years.

How Organizations Go Bad

Toxic

Four-time World Series Champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and still having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shows how leaders can transform setbacks into strength and criticism into motivation. Along the way, he shares nine cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Meet Once: Communicate clearly the first time to build trust and avoid confusion.</li><li>Put Down the Sword: Choose connection over conflict.</li><li>The Game Will Honor You: Focus on doing the little things right.</li><li>Find the Good: Lead with optimism, even when the scoreboard says otherwise.</li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving—in sports and beyond—Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

Relentless Positivity

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.

Diversity Studies schärfen den Blick für interdependente Differenzen wie Gender, Race, Class und weitere Identitätskategorien. Sprache, Literatur und Medien haben einen bisher kaum beachteten Anteil an der Produktion, aber auch der kritischen Reflexion sozio-kultureller Vielfalt. Die Beiträger*innen sensibilisieren für deren Wahrnehmung, indem sie einen Diskussionsrahmen abstecken, der Voraussetzungen, Dynamik und Effekte von Diversität analytisch miteinander in Beziehung setzt. Neben einer systematischen Einführung eröffnen sie außerdem theoretische und methodologische Zugänge zu exemplarischen Forschungsfragen - von historischen Themen bis hin zur aktuellen Vermittlungspraxis.

Eine Einführung

Kulturwissenschaftliche Diversity Studies

From America's most acclaimed satirist and the author of the book that became the Apple+ hit Bad Monkey, Fever Beach is an unmissable skewering of American politics in all its ridiculousness. Dale Figgo is the only hate-monger ever to be kicked out of the Proud Boys for being too dumb and incompetent. Now his already messy life is about to get more complicated, thanks to two formidable adversaries. The first is Viva Morales, a clever woman recently taken to the cleaners by her ex-husband, now working at the supposedly philanthropic Mink Foundation and renting a room in Figgo's apartment; the second, Twilly Spree, a millionaire with an anger management problem, especially when it comes to those who deface the environment. Together, Viva and Twilly are plunged into a mystery involving dark money and darker motives, one they are determined to solve. Into this web come a cavalcade of outrageous characters, from corrupt politicians to white power idiots, all of whose fates are bound together via Figgo in a novel that is both a vicious state-of-the-nation satire and a hilarious thriller.

Welcome to Harker Academy for Deviant Defense. Keep your daggers sharp, and your wits even sharper. Viv Abbot is an average twenty-one-year-old girl. She lives in an expensive city where the rent is too high, works long hours at a thankless job, and is dating a guy she doesn’t even like in the hopes of winning her prickly mother’s approval. She also happens to be a demon hunter. Ever since her father's murder, she's been forced to hunt deviants alone, meaning everyone, including her family, sees her as an outsider . . . until the day she crosses paths with a dangerously alluring demon, Reid Graveheart.

If she enrolls, she'll learn to hone her craft, work with other hunters, and never be alone again. But Viv has a deadly secret.

Hellbent

Quinn I've always had too many men in my life. My father, brothers, and nephews. They run this town, and although I've never given them a reason to worry, they treat me like I'm made of glass. They're wrong, though. I've got it all together - college graduated by twenty-one and a business owner with a perfect record. But I have one secret: I raced to grow up in case he ever came home. Lucas Morrow grew up with us, but he left when I was thirteen. I've waited and worked to be sure everything is perfect when I see him again. But I've waited years and maybe it's time to move on, get my own place and be my own person with new friends. It's summer after all and I am my brothers' sister. Did they really think the apple fell that far? Lucas She thinks her family are the only men watching her. So innocent. And I want to keep her that way. Even though I'm twelve years older, we were always the odd ones out.. She gravitated to me, and I always made sure she wasn't alone. When I left, I told myself she'd be fine without me. But really, it was just an excuse to escape the guilt. I only meant to come back for a few days, but she's grown up, her brothers are distracted, and one bad decision after another is circling her. As well as old ghosts. And old enemies. She doesn't want a babysitter anymore, and if she ever finds out why I left town, she'll know why I'm not the best role model. But I'm still the older one. And she still needs supervision.
