Head Hand Heart

Head Hand Heart

David Goodhart

Penguin Books Ltd

A FINANCIAL TIMES AND TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020The acclaimed new book from the celebrated author of The Road to Somewhere'Brilliant, will become a classic' Daily Telegraph'Utterly compelling ... one of the most important intellectuals in the country, if not Europe' Sunday TimesThe coronavirus pandemic taught us something we ought already to have known: that care workers, supermarket shelf-stackers, delivery drivers and cleaners are doing essential work that keeps us all alive, fed and cared for. Until recently much of this work was regarded as menial by the the same society that now lauds them as 'key workers'. Why are they so undervalued?In this timely and original analysis, David Goodhart divides human aptitudes into three: Head (cognitive), Hand (manual and craft) and Heart (caring, emotional). It's common sense that a good society needs to recognise the value of all three, but in recent decades they have got badly out of kilter. Cognitive ability has become the gold standard of human esteem. The cognitive class now shapes society largely in its own interests, by prioritizing the knowledge economy, ever-expanding higher education and shaping the very idea of a successful life. To put it bluntly: smart people have become too powerful.Head, Hand, Heart tells the story of the cognitive takeover that has gathered pace over the past forty years. As recently as the 1970s most people left school without qualifications, but now 40 per cent of all jobs are graduate-only. A good society must re-imagine the meaning of skilled work, so that people who work with their hands and hearts are valued alongside workers who manipulate data. Our societies need to spread status more widely, and provide meaning and value for people who cannot, or do not want to, achieve in the classroom and the professions. This is the story of the central struggle for status and dignity in the twenty-first century.

Smelling a rat, Sven is so not happy - and when he's not happy is when bad things start to happen - and the body count starts to rise...The devil-may-care not-quite 100% human mercenary soldier-cum-killing machine Tveskoeg and the Death's Head squad are back: cue more extreme violence, a mega death toll, dirty sex, fiendish plot twists and explosive, non-stop action!

Looking for a reliable way to learn how to program on your own, without being overwhelmed by confusing concepts? "Head First Programming" introduces the core concepts of writing computer programs - variables, decisions, loops, functions, and objects - which apply regardless of the programming language. This book offers concrete examples and exercises in the dynamic and versatile Python language to demonstrate and reinforce these concepts. You can learn the basic tools to start writing the programs that interest you, and get a better understanding of what software can (and cannot) do. When you're finished, you'll have the necessary foundation to learn any programming language or tackle any software project you choose. With a focus on programming concepts, this book teaches you how to: understand the core features of all programming languages, including variables, statements, decisions, loops, expressions, and operators; reuse code with functions; use library code to save time and effort; select the best data structure to manage complex data; write programs that talk to the Web; share your data with other programs; and, write programs that test themselves and help you avoid embarrassing coding errors. We think your time is too valuable to waste struggling with new concepts. Using the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory to craft a multi-sensory learning experience, "Head First Programming" uses a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works, not a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.

Head, Heart and Guts

Head, Heart and Guts

David L. Dotlich; Peter C. Cairo; Stephen H. Rhinesmith

Jossey-Bass Inc.,U.S.
2006
sidottu
This book reveals the three most important capabilities leaders must demonstrate today: the ability to set strategy, empathize with others, and take risks—all at the same time. In Head, Heart, and Guts, leadership experts David Dotlich, Peter Cairo, and Stephen Rhinesmith—who teach and coach CEOs and executive teams throughout the world—argue that to be successful in a complex, matrixed, fast-moving world, “whole” leaders must set strategy, develop trusting relationships with others, and consistently do the right thing based on personal values. “Partial” leaders, often the product of traditional executive programs, may be successful in the shortrun, but their companies lose over time. Filled with case studies of companies such as Bank of America, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, and UBS, Head, Heart, and Guts, lays out specific steps and actions for leaders who want to grow beyond their “leadership comfort zone” and an action plan for companies that want to move beyond tried-and-true leadership development in order to develop “whole” leaders throughout their leadership pipeline.

The world has been changing for millions of years. Times we can only see through the writers of history and stories passed on from generation to generation, along with the physical ruins left behind. While the human race has evolved and excelled in technology through time, so have those who drift within the shadows. Wars have been fought, lands conquered, and people enslaved. One conflict, one struggle for ultimate power over all has been quietly smoldering within the dark reaches of the earth for thousands of years. Some walk among us; they are rumored to be nearly invincible, superior to all creatures that inhabit our world. With strength that surpasses the world's strongest of warriors, these bloodthirsty, fanged, humanlike beings are now coming out of the shadows to take what they believe should have been theirs from the beginning.Among one of the world's largest, most secretive military operations, one soldier finds himself captured in a facility controlled by the fanged monsters. Without his memory fully intact, confusion, and what might be more than a coincidence, James finds himself escaping his captors with one of their own. Now known as a traitor, Tessa has defected from the Collective, and deep-rooted feelings and emotions that have been suppressed, almost to the point of extinction, are resurrected through James's eyes.While the highly organized and well-equipped vampires decide to show their full strength to the world, the Collective sends out a group of their deadliest assassins to hunt down James and Tessa. The hunt takes them all to new levels of self-awareness and one ultimate goal-to survive. Around the world, the war on humanity is brought to light and begins to change the history books as well as mankind's misplaced self-righteousness.
