sidottu
An admiring portrait of the pioneering entrepreneur from the former CNBC host and Forbes editor. One of the most influential figures of our time, Elon Musk is the most talked about man in America who isn’t running for president (yet!). In The Leadership Genius of Elon Musk, veteran business journalist Dennis Kneale chronicles Musk’s extraordinary journey, presenting him as a beacon of inspiration. Musk’s unparalleled success as an innovator and entrepreneur is not just a testament to his genius, but a playbook for those daring to dream big.Synonymous with groundbreaking advancements and daring ventures, Elon Musk has not only shaped the future with companies like Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, the Boring Company, and xAI, but has also redefined what it means to be a leader today. Despite facing relentless criticism and controversy, Musk's relentless pursuit of his visions provides invaluable lessons about resilience, innovation, and the power of conviction. Filled with counterintuitive advice like “Tease your critics and torture your enemies” and “work impossible hours and make them keep up,” this illuminating biography reveals how the richest man in the world got that way.Kneale delves into the essence of Musk’s philosophy, dissecting the principles that have guided his extraordinary journey. From embracing the possibility of the impossible to the strategic handling of critics and media, Musk's approach to life and business offers a unique blueprint for success in today's fast-paced world. His ability to dream big, bet on himself, and turn crises into opportunities serves as a masterclass in achieving greatness against all odds.
Latitude Hooks and Azimuth Rings: How to Build and Use 18 Traditional Navigational Tools
Latitude Hooks and Azimuth Rings is for people who like to work with their hands and who appreciate traditional nautical craftsmanship. You don't have to be the master of any craft to undertake any of these projects--from a simple kamal or latitude hook to the more complex pelorus or octant--just a careful and enthusiastic worker.These 18 projects fall roughly into three categories: decorative, useful, and somewhere in between. Some, such as the astrolabe, are mainly for display. On the other hand, the sounding line is an important and practical tool for small-craft navigation, particularly in the absence of an electronic sounder. The cross-staff falls somewhere in between, equally at home in the den or the ditch kit.Each of the devices discussed here--with simple, proven building instructions complemented by clear illustrations--has at one time or another been used for the practical business of navigation, and each is worth reviving for its beauty, historic value, or sheer usefulness.Dennis Fisher has designed these projects with an emphasis on simplicity and reasonable cost. Everything can be scratch-built using easily obtainable materials and tools, and each is true to the spirit and function of the original instrument.

pokkari
An extraordinary account of life behind the locked doors of a secure psychiatric ward from a nurse who worked there for seven years. Dennis O'Donnell started work as an orderly in the Intensive Psychiatric Care Unit of a large hospital in Scotland in 2000. In his daily life he encountered fear, violence and despair but also a considerable amount of care and compassion. Recounting the stories of the patients he worked with, and those of his colleagues on the ward, here he examines major mental health conditions, methods of treatment - medication, how religion, sex, wealth, health and drugs can bear influence on mental health, the prevailing attitudes to psychiatric illness, the authorities, the professionals & society. What emerges is a document of humanity and humour, a remarkable memoir that sheds light on a world that still remains largely unknown. 'This is a superb study of people whose minds have gone wrong, and the art of caring for them' Evening Standard
