Описание: Horvath works for the Firm. He's been sent to track down Van Dyke, who ran off with their money. The morning after, he meets Lana. She's also looking for someone, so they team up. He's not sure if he can trust Lana, but he's attracted to her. And she's all he's got. The city is dirty, violent and corrupt. Run by the Syndicate, criminals control the police, the mayor and the city council. Horvath's leads don't seem to lead anywhere. He wanders through the city looking for clues, sipping espresso, drinking whiskey and popping aspirin like breath mints. Danger follows his every step, but he doesn't carry a gun. That's his code; something his mentor, McGrath, taught him years ago. But in a city that's too broken to fix, can Horvath put the pieces together?

What if all workplace cultures were as well-crafted as video games?
Effective workplaces and popular video games have a lot in common. The things that make employees happier, more motivated, and more productive leverage the same underlying psychology that makes video games engaging, but sometimes the lessons for work are easier to see when presented in the context of play. The Engagement Game is a leadership and management book that shows how organizational culture and leadership can be super-charged by applying the same principles that video game designers apply when creating a new game.
This quick, one-hour read will show you how to do this by blending industrial-organizational workplace psychology with insights on good video game design. This will help you become a better leader, manager, coach, and coworker. You don't have to be a hardcore gamer to benefit from this book. It is for anyone looking to create a positive work experience for their team.
This book covers topics including:
How games lay out their tasks, goals, and challenges so that they motivate people to do amazing things
The ways in which games encourage problem solving and growth mindset
Why expanding skills, building self-confidence, and finding opportunities to innovate feel so natural to those who play a lot of games
How social information is framed in games so as to engender fruitful competition and cooperation
What multiplayer games can tell us about building cohesive, high-performing teams
How to create shared experiences and values that can craft a great organizational culture and shared expectations for the right kinds of behaviors
Which is all to say that you could learn a lot from video games about how to be an effective leader and manager. Ready? Game on.
Автор: Madigan Tom Название: Mickey Thompson: The Lost Story of the Original Speed King in His Own Words ISBN: 0760365997 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780760365991 Издательство: Rockport/Rotovision Рейтинг: Цена: 35420.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Mickey Thompson offers a now-impossible (Thompson and his wife were murdered in 1988) first-person telling of the legendary racer and motorsport impresario's high-speed life, from his earliest days through the height of his competition exploits on drag strips, at Bonneville, the Indy 500, Baja, and more--complemented by some 100 rare images culled from family archives, the NHRA museum, and the collections of friends and fellow racers.
Four decades after his tragic death, Mickey Thompson's name and accomplishments remain legendary among motorsports and automotive enthusiasts. Thompson did it all on four wheels: land-speed racing, drag racing, off-road, NASCAR, Indianapolis...anything involving speed. Armed with a restless mind and a keen business sense, Thompson moved from success to success.
In the early 1970s, motorsports writer (and former drag racer) Tom Madigan and Thompson embarked on a project to write the latter's autobiography. After two years, extensive interviews, and a near-finished manuscript the whole enterprise fell apart for a number of reasons. Type-written sheets, neatly stacked, were boxed, stored, and mostly forgotten.
Mickey Thompson: The Lost Story of the Original Speed King in His Own Words is that never-published work--an amazing biographical artifact from what many consider the golden age of automotive racing.

Описание: This second edition provides an overview of the history, theories, research, and practice of narrative therapy, as well as recent developments in the field. Narrative therapy is founded on the idea that people are made up of interacting stories that comprise their sense of who they are, and that the issues they bring to therapy are not restricted to (or located) within the clients themselves, but are influenced and shaped by cultural discourses about identity and power. Narrative therapy centers around a rich engagement in re?storying a client's narrative by re?considering, re?appreciating, and re?authoring the client's preferred lives and relationships. This second edition of Narrative Therapy includes advice for working with highly conflicted couple relationships innovative techniques for working with children, youth, and families updated practice approaches to grief, loss, trauma, and death ideas for understanding gender and the influence of queer?informed narrative therapy on identity formation and the use of narrative therapy in non?Western cultural contexts.
