Описание: The Future of Extraordinary Design is a companion guide for designers who are at the stage in their career where they're starting to question the status quo. You've studied the core texts, worked on projects either commercially or during your studies and now you're building the expertise to make discipline advancements of your own. This book will help you explore and conceptualize your ideas on design thinking, to produce a more robust individual design identity. The Future of Extraordinary Design is your practical guide to a more holistic, sustainable, innovative future.In The Future of Extraordinary Design we explore three main ideas: - Why is standardization, an utterly unattractive and unexciting word, connected to global success phenomena?- Who is the human in Human Centered Design and can we segregate a human from their environment?- And just where does the designer's role in society lie - how can we as designers make the world a better place?These three questions throw up several theories that too many designers, companies and brands are afraid to tackle - such as reduced originality and creativity in designing, the unattractiveness of American and international brands globally and how we treat our customers when they are also our employees, producers, and our stakeholders.Looking back through some of the greatest cultural and commercial successes of the last decade, century and even millennia we can see patterns emerging that tell us so much about human desire and motivation. Taking into account psychological and anthropological theories, we take a 50,000 feet view of humankind's cultural activities to uncover some fascinating insights into the people we are and the world we live in.Living in a time of exponential technological and social change, it's not enough to accept without questioning the theories of design we are given. It's time for designers such as us to explore the future of extraordinary design.

Описание: Oceania, or the South Pacific, loomed large in the Victorian popular imagination. It was a world that interested the Victorians for many reasons, all of which suggested to them that everything was possible there. This collection of essays focuses on Oceania’s impact on Victorian culture, most notably travel writing, photography, international exhibitions, literature, and the world of children. Each of these had significant impact. The literature discussed affected mainly the middle and upper classes, while exhibitions and photography reached down into the working classes, as did missionary presentations. The experience of children was central to the Pacific’s effects, as youthful encounters at exhibitions, chapel, home, or school formed lifelong impressions and experience. It would be difficult to fully understand the Victorians as they understood themselves without considering their engagement with Oceania. While the contributions of India and Africa to the nineteenth-century imagination have been well-documented, examinations of the contributions of Oceania have remained on the periphery of Victorian studies. Oceania and the Victorian Imagination contributes significantly to our discussion of the non-peripheral place of Oceania in Victorian culture.
This book contains a narrative history of the town of Abbeville, South Carolina, from its beginnings until the early twentieth century. "Three disastrous fires in the 1870s destroyed many of the public records of this area," requiring the author to gather information from alternate sources, including articles from numerous authors. "The variety of authors enables the reader to see Abbeville life from different perspectives." In his search, he "was frequently impressed by accounts of life in the town of Abbeville. They included contemporary records, but were primarily reminiscent accounts of persons and events in its history, and they reflected the atmosphere of the town." Two themes run through Abbeville's history: a strong sense of pride and honor; and, recurring incidents of violence. These themes are emphasized by accounts which the author "found interesting as well as important." The author has included materials which will be of particular interest to genealogists and other students of family history: names of residences from the census, church records, and other sources as well as businesses and institutions. The author "made a special effort to include some account of the life of the blacks in Abbeville's history and to integrate them in the story. During most of its past, they were a majority in the population of the town."
From the beginning of mankind, health and health issues have played a major role in life, but the issues and care have evolved enormously from the time when the first settlers set foot in America to the present. In The History and Evolution of Healthcare in America, author Thomas W. Loker provides a historical perspective on the state of healthcare and offers fresh views on changes to Obamacare.
Insightful and thorough, The History and Evolution of Healthcare in America offers a look at
- what healthcare was like at the birth of the nation;
- how the practice of providing healthcare has changed for both caregivers and receivers;
- why the process has become so corrupt and expensive;
- what needs to happen to provide both choice and effective and efficient care for all;
- where we need to most focus efforts to get the biggest change;
- what is needed to get control over this out-of-control situation.
Loker narrates a journey through the history of American healthcare-where we've been, how we arrived where we are today, and determine where we might need to go tomorrow. The history illustrates how parts of the problem have been solved in the past and helps us understand what might be necessary to solve our remaining problems in the future.

Описание: "Start Where You Are", was written with the intent to help people realize their starting point when it comes to their success. Most people fail because they started in the wrong place, which could be with the wrong mindset, in the wrong environment and with the wrong people. No one starts their success journey in the same place. We are only created equal because we all got here the same way. Life gives everyone of us different starting points. Some have more talent and others have better teachers. If we learn to start where we are, we will have a better understanding of the steps we need to take based on our own attributes and not the attributes of others, especially those we see on TV or social media. Your success journey needs to have a more realistic approach. No matter the path, the road to success will share some similarities along the way because there are laws that cant be changed.
Название: Where are the workers? ISBN: 0252044398 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780252044397 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 91960.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The labor movement in the United States is a bulwark of democracy and a driving force for social and economic equality. Yet its stories remain largely unknown to Americans. Robert Forrant and Mary Anne Trasciatti edit a collection of essays focused on nationwide efforts to propel the history of labor and working people into mainstream narratives of US history. In Part One, the contributors concentrate on ways to collect and interpret worker-oriented history for public consumption. Part Two moves from National Park sites to murals to examine the writing and visual representation of labor history. Together, the essayists explore how place-based labor history initiatives promote understanding of past struggles, create awareness of present challenges, and support efforts to build power, expand democracy, and achieve justice for working people.
A wide-ranging blueprint for change, Where Are the Workers? shows how working-class perspectives can expand our historical memory and inform and inspire contemporary activism.
