The first three titles in a series of gritty family sagas, Our Vinnie, My Uncle Charlie and My Mam Shirley chart the lives of three of the most infamous members of Yorkshire’s real-life notorious criminal family, the Hudsons. Dramatic and shocking, these three explosive true stories document a community forsaken by society - one brother’s unrelenting determination to take justice into his own hands, one man’s ascendancy to power, and the tragedy that brought it all crashing down, and, finally, the vivid account of the ‘Tucker’ girls; the resourceful women at the helm of a notorious Bradford family who will never be forgotten.

This latest volume in the New Naturalist series provides a comprehensive study of wildlife conservation in Britain, concentrating on events in the last 30 years. As our environment is subjected to increasing assault from climatic changes and pollutants, conservation has become a growing concern for both specialists and generalists alike. The first chapter of this book considers the political and institutional development of nature conservation and reviews the physical and biological nature of Britain, its geology, climate and wildlife habitats. Subsequent chapters cover the loss of habitats and species, how these losses have been managed and the techniques used to survey and monitor the integration of nature conservation policies in industries from agriculture to forestry and fisheries. Marren continues by discussing how nature conservation has emerged from the sidelines to become a major concern. He addresses the role of the media, weighs up the successes and failures of the conservation movement and looks to what the future may hold.

Why must critics unmask and demystify literary worksWhy do they believe that language is always withholding some truth, that the critic's task is to reveal the unsaid or repressedIn this book, Rita Felski examines critique, the dominant form of interpretation in literary studies, and situates it as but one method among many, a method with strong allure-but also definite limits.Felski argues that critique is a sensibility best captured by Paul Ricoeur's phrase "e;the hermeneutics of suspicion."e; She shows how this suspicion toward texts forecloses many potential readings while providing no guarantee of rigorous or radical thought. Instead, she suggests, literary scholars should try what she calls "e;postcritical reading"e;: rather than looking behind a text for hidden causes and motives, literary scholars should place themselves in front of it and reflect on what it suggests and makes possible.By bringing critique down to earth and exploring new modes of interpretation, The Limits of Critique offers a fresh approach to the relationship between artistic works and the social world.

Sure to be hailed alongside H is for Hawk and The Hare with Amber Eyes, an exceptional work that is at once an astonishing journey across countries and continents, an immersive examination of a great artist’s work, and a moving and intimate memoir.In 2012, facing the death of his father and impending fatherhood, Toby Ferris set off on a seemingly quixotic mission to track down and look at—in situ—every painting still in existence by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, the most influential and important artist of Northern Renaissance painting.The result of that pursuit is a remarkable journey through major European cities and across continents. As Ferris takes a keen analytical eye to the paintings, each piece brings new revelations about Bruegel’s art, and gives way to meditations on mortality, fatherhood, and life. Ferris conjures a whole world to which most of us have probably lost the key, and in the process teaches us how to look, patiently and curiously, at the world.Short Life in a Strange World is a dazzlingly original and assured debut—a strange and bewitching hybrid of art criticism, philosophical reflection, and poignant memoir. Beautifully illustrated with sixty-six color images, it subtly alters the way we see the world and ourselves.

The High-Performing Preschool takes readers into the lives of three- and four-year-old Head Start students during their first year of school and focuses on the centerpiece of their school day: story acting. In this activity, students act out stories from high-quality children's literature as well as stories dictated by their peers. Drawing on a unique pair of thinkers-Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky and renowned American teacher and educational writer Vivian G. Paley-Gillian Dowley McNamee elucidates the ways, and reasons, this activity is so successful. She shows how story acting offers a larger blueprint for curricula that helps ensure all preschools-not just those for society's well-to-do-are excellent.McNamee outlines how story acting cultivates children's oral and written language skills. She shows how it creates a crucial opportunity for teachers to guide children inside the interior logic and premises of an idea, and how it fosters the creation of a literary community. Starting with Vygotsky and Paley, McNamee paints a detailed portrait of high-quality preschool teaching, showing how educators can deliver on the promise of Head Start and provide a setting for all young children to become articulate, thoughtful, and literate learners. ?

The Challenge Built to Last, the defining management study of the nineties, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the verybeginning. But what about the company that is not born with great DNAHow can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatnessThe Study For years, this question preyed on the mind of Jim Collins. Are there companies that defy gravity and convert long-term mediocrity or worse into long-term superiorityAnd if so, what are the universal distinguishing characteristics that cause a company to go from good to greatThe Standards Using tough benchmarks, Collins and his research team identified a set of elite companies that made the leap to great results and sustained those results for at least fifteen years. How greatAfter the leap, the good-to-great companies generated cumulative stock returns that beat the general stock market by an average of seven times in fifteen years, better than twice the results delivered by a composite index of the world's greatest companies, including Coca-Cola, Intel, General Electric, and Merck.The Comparisons The research team contrasted the good-to-great companies with a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to make the leap from good to great. What was differentWhy did one set of companies become truly great performers while the other set remained only goodOver five years, the team analyzed the histories of all twenty-eight companies in the study. After sifting through mountains of data and thousands of pages of interviews, Collins and his crew discovered the key determinants of greatness -- why some companies make the leap and others don't. The Findings The findings of the Good to Great study will surprise many readers and shed light on virtually every area of management strategy and practice. The findings include: Level 5 Leaders: The research team was shocked to discover the type of leadership required to achieve greatness. The Hedgehog Concept (Simplicity within the Three Circles): To go from good to great requires transcending the curse of competence. A Culture of Discipline: When you combine a culture of discipline with an ethic of entrepreneurship, you get the magical alchemy of great results. Technology Accelerators: Good-to-great companies think differently about the role of technology. The Flywheel and the Doom Loop: Those who launch radical change programs and wrenching restructurings will almost certainly fail to make the leap. Some of the key concepts discerned in the study, comments Jim Collins, "fly in the face of our modern business culture and will, quite frankly, upset some people.Perhaps, but who can afford to ignore these findings?

In this wide-ranging and thoughtful study, Michael Allen Gillespie explores the philosophical foundation, or ground, of the concept of history. Analyzing the historical conflict between human nature and freedom, he centers his discussion on Hegel and Heidegger but also draws on the pertinent thought of other philosophers whose contributions to the debate is crucial-particularly Rousseau, Kant, and Nietzsche.

Marseille, once notorious for its assorted mischief, has recently experienced a cultural renaissance, establishing it as a Mediterranean capital of film, fashion, music, literature, and, most assuredly, cuisine. From the city's beloved, world-famous bouillabaisse to enticing émigré flavors to venerable street treats to classic and contemporary Provencal bistro fare, this culinary crossroads, the Paris of Provence, offers an exciting array of tempting foods that, while global in scope, have a folksy, made-in-Marseille personality. Join Daniel Young, author of The Paris Café Cookbook, as he explores the authentic flavors of France's oldest city, its great southern gateway, extending from the Marseille of antiquity, found intact in the limestone cliffs of the rocky coastline, to the Marseille of romantic intrigue, still apparent in the labyrinthine passageways of the historic Panier quarter, to its storied center, the Vieux Port. Of course there's bouillabaisse: an entire chapter on this legendary fish stew-soup, including rustic, home-style Marseille recipes adapted so they can successfully be made with North American fish—not entirely authentic but wholeheartedly delicious. There are many other definitive fish recipes from this seafood lovers' paradise as well, including the legendary pan-fried calamari with parsley and garlic from Chez Etienne and the foolproof formula for grilling fish from the Restaurant L'Escale. In addition, there are aromatic appetizers, traditional and newfangled desserts, savory pastries, meat and chicken dishes, and hearty vegetable stews, all prepared with the building blocks of the healthful, French-Mediterranean diet: olive oil, garlic, tomatoes, zucchini, fennel, eggplant, artichokes, olives, basil, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, almonds, figs, and honey.It's a full cookbook, offering 120 recipes and also a remarkable portrait of France's "Second City." With evocative black-and-white photographs by Marseille native Sébastien Boffredo, Made in Marseille is a lively panorama of the food, flavors, culture, and mystique of France's vital and fascinating cosmopolitan seaport.Some text and images that appeared in the print edition of this book are unavailable in the electronic edition due to rights reasons.

Designs on the Contemporary?pursues the challenge of how to design and put into practice strategies for inquiring into the intersections of philosophy and anthropology. Drawing on the conceptual repertoires of Max Weber, Michel Foucault, and John Dewey, among others, Paul Rabinow and Anthony Stavrianakis reflect on and experiment with how to give form to anthropological inquiry and its aftermath, with special attention to the ethical formation and ramifications of this mode of engagement. ?The authors continue their prior explorations of the contemporary in past works: How to conceptualize, test, and give form to breakdowns of truth and conduct, as well as how to open up possibilities for the remediation of such breakdowns. They offer a surprising and contrasting pair of case studies of two figures who engaged with contemporary breakdowns: Salman Rushdie and Gerhard Richter. Approaching Richter's artistic struggles with form and technique in the long wake of modernism and Rushdie's struggles to find a narrative form-as well as a form for living-to respond to the Iranian fatwa issued against him, they show how both men formulated different new approaches to anthropology for the twenty-first century.

Collecting a decade of work from iconic anthropologist and writer Michael Taussig, The Corn Wolf pinpoints a moment of intellectual development for the master stylist, exemplifying the "e;nervous system"e; approach to writing and truth that has characterized his trajectory. Pressured by the permanent state of emergency that imbues our times, this approach marries storytelling with theory, thickening spiraling analysis with ethnography and putting the study of so-called primitive societies back on the anthropological agenda as a way of better understanding the sacred in everyday life.The leading figure of these projects is the corn wolf, whom Wittgenstein used in his fierce polemic on Frazer's Golden Bough. For just as the corn wolf slips through the magic of language in fields of danger and disaster, so we are emboldened to take on the widespread culture of academic-or what he deems "e;agribusiness"e;-writing, which strips ethnography from its capacity to surprise and connect with other worlds, whether peasant farmers in Colombia, Palestinians in Israel, protestors in Zuccotti Park, or eccentric yet fundamental aspects of our condition such as animism, humming, or the acceleration of time. ?A glance at the chapter titles-such as "e;The Stories Things Tell"e; or "e;Iconoclasm Dictionary"e;-along with his zany drawings, testifies to the resonant sensibility of these works, which lope like the corn wolf through the boundaries of writing and understanding.?

During his forty-year career at General Electric, he led the company to year-after-year success around the globe, in multiple markets, against brutal competition. His honest, be-the-best style of management became the gold standard in business, with his relentless focus on people, teamwork, and profits. Since Welch retired in 2001 as chairman and chief executive officer of GE, he has traveled the world, speaking to more than 250,000 people and answering their questions on dozens of wide-ranging topics. Inspired by his audiences and their hunger for straightforward guidance, Welch has written both a philosophical and pragmatic book, which is destined to become the bible of business for generations to come. It clearly lays out the answers to the most difficult questions people face both on and off the job. Welch's objective is to speak to people at every level of an organization, in companies large and small. His audience is everyone from line workers to MBAs, from project managers to senior executives. His goal is to help everyone who has a passion for success. Welch begins Winning with an introductory section called "Underneath It All," which describes his business philosophy. He explores the importance of values, candor, differentiation, and voice and dignity for all. The core of Winning is devoted to the real "stuff" of work. This main part of the book is split into three sections. The first looks inside the company, from leadership to picking winners to making change happen. The second section looks outside, at the competition, with chapters on strategy, mergers, and Six Sigma, to name just three. The next section of the book is about managing your career from finding the right job to achieving work-life balance. Welch's optimistic, no excuses, get-it-done mind-set is riveting. Packed with personal anecdotes and written in Jack's distinctive no b.s. voice, Winning offers deep insights, original thinking, and solutions to nuts-and-bolts problems that will change the way people think about work.

Philosophy can be very abstract and apparently remote from our everyday concerns. In this book Ralph Blumenau brings out for the non-specialist the bearing that thinkers of the past have on the way we live now, on the attitude we have towards our lives, towards each other and our society, towards God and towards the ethical problems that confront us.The focus of the book is those aspects of the history of ideas which have something to say to our present preoccupations. After expounding the ideas of a particular thinker there follows a discussion of the material and how it relates to issues that are still alive today (indented from the margin and set in a different typeface), based on the author's classroom debates with his own students.Another feature of the book is the many footnotes which refer the reader back to earlier, and forward to later, pages of the book. They are intended to reinforce the idea that throughout the centuries philosophers have often grappled with the same problems, sometimes coming up with similar approaches and sometimes with radically different ones.

人生十二法则 我对任何事都提不起兴趣怎么办？我处于人生的至暗时刻怎么办？上班让我不快乐怎么办？面对人生中的混乱迷茫，我们真正需要的，不是虚伪的励志、空洞的安慰，而是严父近乎残酷的苛责教诲。 著名心理学家乔丹·彼得森将人类数千年来的哲学思考、神话故事中的精神财富与心理学、生物学、神经科学等学科的前沿研究相结合，用12条zui基本的人生法则，为我们找到摆脱人生困境的方法。科学作家万维钢老师说：“彼得森这些建议我完quan赞同，我希望我儿子长大以后读读彼得森这本书。” “活在当下”指南 国际当红学者萨姆·哈里斯一针见血地指出，趋乐避苦是人类的本能，而快乐本质上稍纵即逝，所以人们天生受困于循环往复的追求，不少人甚至终其一生都在这无形的牢笼中度过。要打破与生俱来的困境，成为自己人生的主人，就一定要升级心智模式，摆脱原始状态。如何做到这一点？身为哲学神经学双料博士的哈里斯独辟蹊径。书中，他将经典的哲学理论、前沿的科学发现、丰富的切身体验巧妙结合，理性睿智、亦庄亦谐地引导读者探寻关乎个体存在之根本的三大问题——意识是什么，自我究竟为何物，以及人生应该以什么为重要追求，从而一步步瓦解顽固的“常识性”认知，实现心智的提升，收获自在的高层级人生。 以大制胜 如何利用人的非理性说服他人？如何在说服的过程中利用视觉想象力？如何为对手贴标签，对其一击必杀？如何抢占制高点，转守为攻？如何在事情发生之前引导用户的思维？如何设计有效的口号，率先赢得客户？ 在本书中，知名系列企业管理漫画《呆伯特》作者斯科特·亚当斯介绍了自己的说服理论，即如何利用“武器级”说服力，抢先竞争对手影响受众，在竞争中赢得胜利。 亚当斯认为，说服力分为三个层次，分别是“商业级”“科学级”“武器级”。其中“武器级”说服力尤其难，达到这个级别的大师非常少，几位曾经的美国总统和乔布斯在此级别；“科学级”说服力的代表是认知科学家；“商业级”说服力就是我们通常说的“影响力”“说服力”，市场营销、品牌形象管理、危机公关等用的都是这个级别的说服力。 如今，想要在与对手的竞争中赢得胜利，抢夺用户的注意力，不仅要懂得如何影响用户，更重要的是要懂得如何抢先对手影响用户。掌握了这一套说服术，你就拥有了一套杀手级的武器，可以抢先对手先发制胜！ 爆笑吧！心理学大神来了 “斯金纳的鸽子，桑代克的猫，洛伦茨的鸭子水上漂；斯佩里的脑，哈洛的猴，巴甫洛夫小狗腮腺来一刀；你一刀我一刀，皮亚杰的孩子自己教。托尔曼的老鼠走迷宫，苛勒的猩猩吃香 蕉。华生的小孩怕白毛，弗洛伊德荣格关系糟，还有一位班杜拉，充气娃娃玩得乐陶陶。” 上述段子出自《爆笑吧！心理学大神来了》这本引人入胜的心理学另类入门书。在本书中，作者迟毓凯老师以心理学大神们的奇闻轶事为切入点，用轻松的方式和直白的语言为你讲清心理学的脉络。翻开本书，从老学究冯特和科学心理学诞生，到神神道道的精神分析、训练大师辈出的行为主义、随随便便的人本主义，一路带你彻底读懂心理学的主要流派、发展脉络和改变我们生活的重要研究。 40余位心理学发展史上极具开创性的大神轮番出场，360度展现心理学家们不为人知的隐秘故事和心理学史上的动人时刻。心理学专业人士读过后必定拍手叫好，心理学小白看过后注定要爱上心理学。 活出zui乐观的自己 积极心理学之父马丁·塞利格曼扛鼎之作，是央视《读书》栏目连续五天力荐的作品，是告别抑郁，从根本上改变悲观人生，提升幸福感的作品。 quan书分为三个部分，Di一部分探讨了人们为什么会抑郁；Di二部分讲述了乐观的人具有哪些优势？di三部分探讨了人们应如何从悲观思维转变成乐观思维。塞利格曼认为，乐观思维可以帮助人摆脱抑郁、正视挫折、改善健康状况，而通过运用“ABC”模式，你就可以习得把悲观思维变成乐观思维的方法。 乐观和幸福是成比例的，乐观有多层次的、多方面的概念。我们要通过学习方式和善于在生活中发现新奇的、美丽的、善意的东西，培养愉悦的心情，才能在生活中活出乐观的自己。 quan球畅销30年，销量达到200多万册。央视《读书》栏目连续五天力荐作品！ 选择共情 如何提高一个人的的共情能力？如何改善共情缺失的社会现状，消除不同群体间的偏见和隔阂？如何减轻过度共情带来的心理上的负担？ 这些问题的答案，都在这本书里。斯坦福大学副教授贾米勒·扎基多年研究的集大成之作。作者结合自己的亲身经历，向读者娓娓讲述了当今社会的人们因为缺乏共情带来的人际交往不畅、职场恶性竞争、医患关系紧张乃至种族隔离等问题。同时，贾米勒·扎基还提出了一个颠覆性的新观点——共情不是与生俱来的人格特质，而是一种可以习得和发展的能力。并且他结合前沿心理学研究成果，给出了“如何提升共情水平”的实践方法，使本书成为一本既饱含温情又科学实用的佳作。 人心的本质 人心一直被认为是复杂而难测的，心理学家们花费了大量的时间试图去找到人类思考、行事、决策的规律。在《人心的本质》中，社会心理学泰斗丹尼尔·韦格纳给出了一个终极答案，他融合社会心理学、道德心理学的前沿研究，提出了一个适用于解释复杂人类人性和行为的极简思维工具——心智知觉地图。每一个读懂这个工具的人都能感受到它的绝妙之处，它能够帮助我们回答有关人类的诸多问题。比如人类感知世界和评判世界的方式是什么？态度为什么是多变的？爱与恨产生的根源是什么？什么是心智？谁拥有心智？ 拖延心理学 从学生到科学家，从职场新人到商界大佬，从家庭主妇到艺术家，都会受到拖延的影响。简·博克和莱诺拉·袁基于他们备受好评和具有开创性的拖延工作坊以及从众多心理咨询领域汲取的丰富理论和经验，对拖延进行了一次详尽、仔细，有时也颇为幽默的探索。 在这本书中，作者找出了4个zui可能导致拖延的原因：对成功信心不足、讨厌被人委派任务、注意力分散和易冲动、目标和回报太过遥远。本书通过对拖延背后深层次的原因分析和对大脑神经科学方面的研究，让我们能够重新理解拖延并明白怎样以quan新的方式采取行动。 本书还为我们提供了达成目标、管理时间、谋求支持和处理压力等一系列克服拖延的方法，她们提供的方案非常实用并经受过实践的检验。此外，本书还考虑到工作和生活节奏不断加快的当代文化诉求，以及诸如注意缺陷障碍、执行功能障碍等问题对拖延的影响，甚至还为生活和工作在拖延者身边的人群提供了不少实用性建议。 风靡quan球近40年的经典之作，quan球数百万读者口碑认证！ 白板 关于主流人性论的颠覆性反叛，破而后立，进而建立起新的意义和道德观念，重塑对人性的信心。 阐明人性的本源、内涵及局限，追溯人类诸多苦难的根源，拨开道德错觉的迷雾，直达现实的彼岸。 直面人性科学研究领域的诸多热点话题：政治、暴力、性别、儿童及艺术，发现诸多现实冲突背后的分岔路口及共享的普世价值观念。 一场探索人类本性的奇幻之旅。 当代zui伟大思想家、TED演讲人、世界ding尖语言学家和认知心理学家史蒂芬·平克经典重现。 简单的逻辑学 这是一本足以彻底改变你思维世界的小书。美国著名逻辑学家、哲学教授D.Q.麦克伦尼，将一门宽广、深奥的逻辑科学以贴近生活、通俗易懂、妙趣横生的语言娓娓道来。它既没有刻板的理论教条，也不是正规的教科书，而是一本必不可少的现实指南。 生活中，逻辑无处不在。无论我们是有意还是无意，逻辑无时无刻不在服务于我们的生活。然而逻辑到底是什么，也许并没有太多的人有很清楚的概念。作者以其简练而又充满趣味的笔触，将逻辑学活化为一种艺术，从它的基本原理，到论证，到非逻辑思维的根源，再到28种就发生在你身边的非逻辑思维形式，带领我们进入这个精彩无比的逻辑世界，体会妙趣横生的思维交锋，跨过无处不在的逻辑陷阱，让你沉醉其中，欲罢不能。 作为zui畅销的逻辑学科普入门书，被香港中文大学奉为40本英文经典之一，被哈佛大学校内书店视为皇冠书籍，还曾位列台湾诚品网络书店英文畅销书榜di一名。
