Il XXI secolo è il secolo della solitudine. Noreena Hertz lo sperimenta in prima persona: a un colloquio di lavoro viene valutata da un algoritmo; un pomeriggio fa shopping con un’"amica del cuore" affittata tramite un servizio online; di sera si trova a sfiorare la pelle artificiale di un robot progettato per essere il suo animale da compagnia. La solitudine che Noreena Hertz racconta non si limita alla frustrazione del desiderio di avere qualcuno vicino; è un male sottile che si è insinuato dentro di noi e ha permeato ogni aspetto della nostra società.

Every day, we make decisions on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we are all susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder. Our mistakes can make us poor and unhealthy. We often make bad decisions about education, personal finance, health care, family, and the environment.

Questo è un libro per dimagrire, ma è anche un libro contro le diete. Si, hai letto bene... dimagrire senza dieta! Ti spiego brevemente come. Questo libro si contraddistingue dagli altri per un concetto di fondo: bisogna perdere peso senza privazioni e mangiando bene, magari anche tanto, in caso. Se si vive la dieta con sacrificio, infatti, quando essa finirà, per reazione alle privazioni, il nostro corpo e la nostra mente, d'istinto, tenderanno a riaccumulare le riserve appena perse: ingrasseremo di nuovo e con gli interessi! Ci siete già passati vero?

Benjamin Franklin, presidente, inventor, escritor, embajador y mucho más, es sin duda una gran elección para iniciar esta colección de economía y educación financiera.

In 2010, pioneering sociologist Catherine Hakim shocked the world with a provocative new theory: In addition to the three recognized personal assets (economic, cultural, and social capital), each individual has a fourth asset - erotic capital - that he or she can, and should, use to advance within society. In this bold and controversial book, Hakim explores the applications and significance of erotic capital, challenging the disapproval meted out to women and men who use sex appeal to get ahead in life.

The Big Three in Economics reveals the battle of ideas among the three most influential economists in world history: Adam Smith, representing laissez faire; Karl Marx, reflecting the radical socialist model; and John Maynard Keynes, symbolizing big government and the welfare state. History comes alive in this fascinating story of opposing views that continue to play a fundamental role in today's politics and economics.

Here is a bold new history of economics, the dramatic story of how the great economic thinkers built a rigorous social science without peer.

Tomei a iniciativa de escrever sobre a soja com o objetivo de mostrar a importância deste grão para o organismo humano, visto que eu mesma consumo soja em grão, moída ou texturizada há mais de 25 anos, desde o final da década de 70, quando tive a oportunidade de trabalhar por 10 anos como assistente administrativa em escolas públicas no Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul, onde no cardápio da merenda escolar, cedida pelo Governo, incluía leite de soja e proteína de soja (PVT).

The world is facing a global leadership crisis. Seventy-seven percent of leaders think they do a good job of engaging their people, yet 88 percent of employees say their leaders don't engage enough. Based on extensive research, including assessments of more than 35,000 leaders and interviews with 250 C-level executives, The Mind of the Leader concludes that organizations and leaders aren't meeting employees' basic human needs of finding meaning, purpose, connection, and genuine happiness in their work.

Spread through the public in the form of popular stories, ideas can go viral and move markets - whether it's the belief that tech stocks can only go up or that housing prices never fall. Whether true or false, stories like these - transmitted by word of mouth, by the news media, and increasingly by social media - drive the economy by driving our decisions about how and where to invest, how much to spend and save, and more. But despite the obvious importance of such stories, most economists have paid little attention to them. Narrative Economics sets out to change that.

In this age of hypercompetition, the Internet constitutes a powerful tool for inventing radical new business models that will leave your rivals scrambling. But as brain scientist and entrepreneur Jeffrey Stibel explains in Wired for Thought, you have to understand its true nature.

With the exception of sleep, humans spend more of their lifetimes on work than any other activity. It is central to our economy, our society, and the family. It underpins our finances and our sense of meaning in life. Given the overriding importance of work, we need to recognize a profound transformation in the nature of work that is significantly altering lives: the incoming tidal wave of shadow work. Shadow work includes all the unpaid tasks we do on behalf of businesses and organizations.

A new field of collective intelligence has emerged in the last few years, prompted by a wave of digital technologies that make it possible for organizations and societies to think at large scale. This "bigger mind" - human and machine capabilities working together - has the potential to solve the great challenges of our time. So why do smart technologies not automatically lead to smart results?
