Neuware -A much-needed defense of liberalismwhat it is, why it is under threat, and why we need it more than everfrom one of our most important political thinkers today.More than at any time since World War II, liberalism is under pressure, even siege.

Th…ey hold it responsible for the collapse of the family and traditional values, rampant criminality, disrespect for authority, and widespread immorality. On the left, some are turning their backs on liberalism. They think that it lacks the resources to handle the problems posed by entrenched inequalities, racism, sexism, corporate power, and environmental degradation. But those opposed to liberalism do not depict it accurately; they offer a caricature, and they neglect its history.In On Liberalism, former advisor to Presidents Obama and Biden and New York Timesbestselling author Cass Sunstein offers a timely and clear understanding of liberalismof its core commitments, of its breadth, of its internal debates, of its evolving character, of its promiseand why we need it more than ever. He also shows how and why liberalism has been, and should be, appealing to both the left and the right.The book begins with a manifesto on behalf of liberalism, and then goes on to explore the central idea of "experiments of living," to which a liberal constitutional order gives pride of place. From there, it discusses John Stuart Mill and Friedrich Hayek, defining liberal thinkers; the rule of law as liberals understand it; freedom of speech (including the place of lies and falsehoods within that freedom); free markets, economic liberty, and regulation; Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Second Bill of Rights, with its social and economic guarantees; and finally, the concept of opportunity.Never more urgently needed, On Liberalism moves the conversation well beyond the reductive and inflammatory political sound bites of our moment and advances a compelling argument on behalf of liberalism as the foundation of freedom and self-government.Easy Access System Europe Oü, 16879218, EU GPSR Authorised Representative, 202 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How the overturning of Roe has imperiled high-risk pregnanciesand how to ensure safe patient healthcare in the future. From a leading doctor on the front lines after the Dobbs decision.Doctors and patients confronting high-risk pregnancies have always faced profound and life-altering decisions. But…after the 2022 Dobbs decision overturning Roe, many of these decisions seem impossible. As a firsthand witness to this convulsion, David Hackney, a leading physician in maternal fetal medicine, offers knowledgeable, thoughtful guidance to patients and practitioners contending with high-risk pregnancies in our new reality.Impossible Choices focuses on the practical implications of high-risk complications for people who are pregnant or considering pregnancyincluding conditions such as pre-eclampsia, premature membrane rupture, or birth defectsespecially in states now under abortion bans. And because maternal fetal medicine overlaps with other medical fields as pregnant patients struggle with, for instance, kidney disease, lupus, diabetes, and cancer, the book also addresses a wide array of medical questions and complications.How do we make decisions when thrown into extreme and uncertain circumstances The author answers this question and more by painting a nuanced and clear-eyed picture of obstetrics after Dobbs, illustrating his reflections with stories from his own practice, as well as those of his wife, in pediatric oncology. Without being partisan or polemical, the book offers the informed compassion and way forward that this fraught moment in maternal medicine calls for.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How employers can compete in a challenging labor marketby hiring differently, redesigning job quality, and rethinking their government relations strategies. From two leaders in business and workforce development with a proven track record in innovative workforce strategies.Over the past ten years, t…he U.S. labor market has been buffeted, with demand shifting dramatically. At the same time, demographic trends mean that U.S. labor supply will steadily tighten into the coming decade: Relatively fewer native-born workers are entering the workforce; a greater percentage are choosing not to work; and an aging baby boom generation is exiting the workforce. What's worse, this systemic tightening of the US labor market has been exacerbated by the Trump administration's decision to dramatically constrain immigration, the primary source of recent labor market growth.Welcome to the "forever-tight" labor market. In Help Wanted, Jerry Rubin and Steven Dawson combine their 80 years of experience in management and workforce development to offer employers an "employee-focused competitive strategy." This strategy includes a wide range of practical, well-researched tools and detailed case studies from a breadth of employers that will help readers compete for talent and retain a productive workforce.Since the underlying cause of the tightening labor supply is structural, employerswhether for-profit, nonprofit, or governmentalmust respond in kind. They too must undertake structural changes in finding, hiring, and retaining workers.Now equal in importance to an organization's customer-service strategy, an employee-focused strategy is no longer simply a competitive advantageit is fast becoming a competitive necessity.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A revolutionary way of seeing bodies and built environment that unites radical politics and trans aesthetics. From a leading author and queer theorist known for reframing many of the most pressing questions about counter-intuitive ways of being.Anarchitecture, a radical aesthetic practice of…unmaking the built environment, staged a vigorous confrontation with urban renewal and gentrification projects in the 1970s. In Anarchitecture After Everything, Jack Halberstam identifies a powerful lexicon of transformation within anarchitecture, joining the movement's practices of cutting and splitting with the destabilizing power of transness to detonate acts of formal violence in our time.Anarchitecture describes the aesthetic practice of splitting and cutting, dismantling and undoing, unmaking, unbuilding, and ultimately unworlding. The trans body splits bodily coherence, dismantles the gender binary, and unbuilds bodily meaning. In these chapters, Gordon Matta-Clark's cuts, along with Alvin Baltrop's 1970s images of collapsing warehouses and Beverly Buchanan's post-demolition fragmentary sculptures, return with a vengeance through the contemporary aesthetic gestures of Yve Laris Cohen, Jesse Darling, Nicole Eisenman, Kiyan Williams, Cassils, boychild, and Every Ocean Hughes. Anarchitecture unmakes space and offers a new rhetoric for emptiness. In its conclusion, the book explores this rhetoric through Renee Gladman's anarchitectural experiments with language.By reading anarchitecture through transness and transness through anarchitecture, Halberstam helps us see the trans body as a space of radical unmaking and as a portal to new lexicons for transformation.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - An eye-opening collection from contemporary artists and authors about how art and technology can reimagine humanity's relationship with nature and society.Shimmerthe apt name of both the highly-illustrated book and the exhibition it accompaniesoffers a timely collection of essays by today's key thin…kers about art and technology. In this vital showcase that takes on some of the most salient questions of our time, authors and artists consider how a "posthuman" perspective can help inspire new ways to confront crises like climate change, species extinction, technological manipulation, and social alienation.Here, you'll find current thinking on interspecies entanglement, the role of dreams in imagining a post-anthropocentric world, a return to the interconnectivity found in prior (mostly Indigenous) technologies, and the power of enchantment. Examining both the advantages and dangers of twenty-first century tools, essayists explore the artistic use of quantum computing, machine learning, motion capture software, and augmented, extended, and virtual reality.Throughout this engaging collection, the authors show that, like the Surrealists of the twentieth century, many of today's artists tap the transformative agency of the marvelous, the uncanny, and the unpredictable, destabilizing conventional patterns of thought to open new pathways to unexplored terrain.Artist profiles include Nancy Baker Cahill, Ian Cheng, Chalet Comellas, Anna Dumitriu and Alex May, Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Libby Heaney, Marguerite Humeau, Jakob Kudsk Steensen, Kite, Katja Loher, Josefa Ntjam, Rachel Rossin, Jacolby Satterwhite, Amelia Winger-Bearskin, Saya Woolfalk, and Marina Zurkow.The exhibition Shimmer: Dreaming the Posthuman opens September 2026 at the Frist Museum in Nashville and in 2027 travels to the Media Majlis Museum of Northwestern University in Doha and the Palmer Museum of Art, Penn State.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A powerful new vision of cities as engines of planetary evolution and multispecies cooperation.Evolution, once associated with remote places and deep time, is unfolding in real time, much closer to home. Cities have become a new ecological stage on which evolution is taking place. Humans are…now active participants shaping the trajectory of life on Earth. How can we use this knowledge to build more resilient and just futures for humans and other species In Cities for a Shared Planet, Marina Alberti envisions evolving urban ecosystems in which humans and other species shape their shared futures through new forms of cooperation. She argues that the convergence of rapid urbanization and accelerating environmental change may mark the onset of a major evolutionary transitionone that redefines the role of cities in planetary evolution. At the heart of this transformation is the emergence of bio-cooperative cities: adaptive, multispecies systems designed to sustain the evolutionary potential of urban life.Drawing on urban ecology, evolutionary biology, design theory, and environmental justice, Alberti develops the foundations of bio-cooperation, advancing ecological interdependence and eco-evolutionary dynamics as core principles of urban design. Through imaginative scenarios and real-world case studiesfrom Singapore, Seattle, New York City, Ho Chi Minh City, and Cape Townthe book shows how multispecies interactions are transforming infrastructure, reshaping urban space, and redefining how urban environments are inhabited and evolve.Engaging and eye-opening, Cities for a Shared Planet reimagines cities as active participants in a shared planetary future.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How we can prepare children to find insights and cognitive agency in a world of ever shrinking opportunities to learn how things work.From infancy onwards, children show a natural interest in the hidden causes of surface patterns. But that kind of childhood is being derailed by a world that i…s no longer causally transparent. Younger generations seek different kinds of explanations now, value different kinds of experts, and are more prone to outsource their understandings. In many cases, they don't realize how much they have surrendered their intellectual efficacy. What does this all mean for their learning In The Disappearance of Insight, Frank Keil investigates how rapid technological change is shaping the world around us--and what this all means for our children and their futures.Explanation and understanding are at the heart of a cognitively meaningful life. But the things we can explain and want to understand are dramatically changing. In many cases, over the past fifty years or so, those thingsand parts of thingshave shifted from easily interpretable components to opaque ones. In 1960, for example, the insides of thermostats, cameras, and clocks revealed how they worked. Today, their insides are indecipherable circuit boards.The author shows why insight and explanations are at the heart of higher-level human cognition; explores how artifacts and their roles in evolving cultures can shape thought and developing minds; and does much more, in this fascinating deep dive into cognition, learning, and AI.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What happened to small businesses, government aid, and racial inequality during the pandemic and subsequent economic recovery.The Fall and Rise of Small Businesses provides the first comprehensive analysis of the plight of small businesses, social distancing restrictions, racial inequality, g…overnment aid, and broader measures of the US economy during the pandemic and economic recovery. Robert Fairlie weaves evidence from the most up-to-date data on business activity, as well as novel data on PPP receipt and business outcomes recently released by the US Census Bureau, to tell a compelling story of what happened over one of the most important and disruptive five-year periods of economic historyfrom the first cases of COVID in the United States to five years later in the recovery.Although small businesses were severely affected by mandated social distancing restrictions to slow the spread of COVID-19, business activity has more than recovered five years later. The economic recovery has been strong, especially for Black, Latinx, and Asian business activity. But retail trade and restaurants have not fully recovered, leading to a visible struggle in many shopping districts and downtown areas. Though the federal government pumped roughly a trillion dollars into aid for small businesses, we have yet to see a complete picture of the costs and benefits of these expenditures. AI, robots, and consumer trends make predictions even more challenging, but the new findings in this book will be key in helping policymakers, business leaders, and small business owners move forward.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A comprehensive look at causality's theoretical and practical aspects in economics and finance.In Causal Modeling for Finance and Business, Frank Fabozzi and Sergio Focardi offer a foundation for understanding causal relationships and their importance in complex systems. Topics include the th…eory of graphs, probabilistic frameworks, structural causal models, algorithms for learning causal structures, and the empirical testing of these models.The book emphasizes applying and deploying causal models in real-world business and investment scenarios. However, it also offers a novel theoretical perspective on causal modeling. Fabozzi and Focardi argue that causation is not a law of nature, but a characteristic of causal systems. If we accept the modern idea of causation as manipulability, causal systems are characterized by causal relationships as well as purely descriptive functional relationships.With these arguments in mind, the book addresses a critical gap in understanding and applying causal reasoning in complex systems. While correlations have often been relied upon in data analysis, decision-making in business and economics demands a deeper understanding of causation and functional relationships to drive actionable outcomes.The book's objective is to provide a comprehensive resource that bridges foundational theories and practical applications of causal models. By integrating recent advancements in artificial intelligence, probabilistic logic, and graph theory, the authors offer a robust framework for researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers to harness the power of causality in solving intricate problems.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A theory of the formal structure of commonsense concepts.In Conceptual Form, Sandeep Prasada develops a new and original approach to the study of commonsense concepts. He argues that lexically expressible concepts such as DOG possess a formal structurea conceptual formwhich provides perspecti…ves for thinking, talking, and reasoning. These perspectives are not a property of the things the concept represents. Rather, they are "mental lenses," or ways of thinking and talking. The conceptual form functions as a mental lens by providing instructions for how to think and talk about what the concept represents.The book is unique in its focus on the formal dimension of commonsense concepts, its original proposal for how the type-token distinction is realized within our conceptual systems, its proposal that the core of concepts involves the acquisition of principles, not facts and generalizations, and its detailed consideration of linguistic and experimental data in the formulation of the theory of conceptual form. Finally, this book provides a new perspective on classic questions concerning the atomicity and innateness of concepts. Even those who disagree with specific claims are likely to find the theoretical tools and distinctions introduced by the theory of conceptual form to be valuable in their investigation of concepts.
