Book Synopsis A picture of what a post-pandemic world may look like by : Joshua Park
Download or read book A picture of what a post-pandemic world may look like written by Joshua Park and published by Gugguro Media & Codemy. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there was ever a period of uncertainty and a backlog of unanswered questions in recent memory, the years 2020 and 2021 have certainly been uncertain. What does the future hold for us after this pandemic? Has COVID-19 permanently changed our way of life? What is the long-term outlook for the global economy? In this book, I examine what medical experts, political leaders, and well-known futurists are saying with regard to these questions. Political polarization, fearmongering, and herd mentality are all great obstacles that must be dealt with in order to address the most pressing questions that the pandemic has given rise to. Should our leaders consider universal basic income (UBI) in the long run? How does transportation look in a post-pandemic society? How can we reduce the possibilities of such a pandemic from happening again? How can nations achieve the appropriate balance between public health and individual rights? Again, these are just a few questions that may arise as we move on from the worst days of the pandemic, and for most of these questions, there is no single, clear, and definite answer. It may be impossible to read the future, but it is possible to prepare for it by educating ourselves with data. In a time where political leaders seem to be driven more by partisanship over data-driven decision-making, the onus is on average citizens to steer their leaders towards practical and helpful legislative practices. With unstable financial markets, a global economy on fire, and speculations over the efficacy of vaccines, it is important to understand our current circumstances in order to present reasonable solutions. However dim the future may appear, creating a brighter reality must be a collective goal. Through this book, I hope to provide a clear picture of what the world looked like during the peak of the pandemic as well as a picture of what a post-pandemic world may look like.

Book Synopsis Post-Pandemic World by : Olivia Toderean
Download or read book Post-Pandemic World written by Olivia Toderean and published by Curtea Veche Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays included in this volume highlight the new dilemmas arising from the tectonic shifts in world geopolitics that the Western community of values has to face now and in the years to come, considering the impact of accumulated security risks caused by growing uncertainties, imbalances, disruptive technologies, emergence of new forms of hybrid and information warfare short of outright armed confrontation, spill‑over of military competition in outer space and cyberspace, and instances of unlawful behaviour by some major international actors such as Russia and China. The accelerated pace of change emphasises the distinction between enablers and spoilers in international affairs, while the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic has added a new layer of concern as a real and present security threat on a global scale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller COVID-19 is speeding up history, but how? What is the shape of the world to come? Lenin once said, "There are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen." This is one of those times when history has sped up. CNN host and best-selling author Fareed Zakaria helps readers to understand the nature of a post-pandemic world: the political, social, technological, and economic consequences that may take years to unfold. Written in the form of ten "lessons," covering topics from natural and biological risks to the rise of "digital life" to an emerging bipolar world order, Zakaria helps readers to begin thinking beyond the immediate effects of COVID-19. Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World speaks to past, present, and future, and, while urgent and timely, is sure to become an enduring reflection on life in the early twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis Space, Structures and Design in a Post-Pandemic World by : Thomas Fisher
Download or read book Space, Structures and Design in a Post-Pandemic World written by Thomas Fisher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pandemics have long-term effects on how we live and work, and the COVID-19 pandemic was no exception, accelerating us into a digital economy, in which people increasingly work, shop, and learn online, transforming how we use space in-person and remotely. Space, Structures, and Design in a Post-Pandemic World explores the rebalancing of our physical and digital interactions and what it means for the built environment going forward. This book examines the effect of the pandemic on our use of land, interior space, energy, and transportation, as well as on our approach to design, wealth, work, and practice. Author Thomas Fisher also discusses the plagues of institutional racism and climate change that coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic and how these were interrelated. At the same time as all of this, the automation of all or part of many jobs continued unabated, eliminating much of the work that people did before COVID-19 arrived. This text discusses how we might leverage the under-utilized human talent and material assets all around us to rebuild our communities and our economy in more creative ways for a more equitable, resilient future. Space, Structures, and Design in a Post-Pandemic World will influence anyone interested in how design thinking can transform how we see the world and those looking for new ways to understand what the COVID-19 pandemic means and what opportunities it creates for our environments.

Download or read book COVID-19 written by J. Michael Ryan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SARS-CoV-2 virus, commonly referred to as COVID-19, is perhaps the greatest threat to life, and lifestyles, around the world in more than a century. Although there is little global agreement on many issues related to the virus, there is widespread agreement that the actual number of cases – both of those infected and of those who have died as a result of infection – is certainly much higher than official numbers suggest. The impact of the virus, however, has spread well beyond the realm of the medical, also heavily impacting social, cultural, economic, political, and quotidian ways of living for nearly every human being on the planet. The two edited volumes in this set contribute to a broader understanding of the impact COVID-19 is having, and will have, on our understandings, efforts, and decisions of the future of global society.
Book Synopsis Airlines in a Post-Pandemic World by : Nawal K. Taneja
Download or read book Airlines in a Post-Pandemic World written by Nawal K. Taneja and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic represents an extraordinary inflection point that caught airlines worldwide unprepared, causing CEOs to recalibrate their business models. This book explains why this unprecedented pandemic is different from the past disruptions experienced by the airline industry during the past 50 years, and what airlines and related businesses now can do to adapt to the dramatically changed marketplace. This book presents two future scenarios: continuous improvements and elastic supply. These are considered in three specific contexts for the rebuilding of the airline business. These contexts, in the order of urgency with respect to change from the status quo, are the following. The first context is for airlines to become better prepared to deal with frequent and deeper disruptions that could be localized or globalized relating to such areas as climate change, geopolitics, and cybersecurity. The second context is to collaborate and integrate within the much broader travel ecosystem, possibly using platforms to innovate on new value systems. The third context, which has always been the case and drives the first two, is for airlines to offer real solutions to people’s travel needs, solutions developed with imagination and turbocharged innovation, even as we contemplate new technology airplanes and mobility as a service solutions. This book is recommended reading for all senior-level practitioners of airlines and related businesses, as well as aviation policy makers worldwide.
Book Synopsis Economic Crisis and Mentality of Youth in Post-Pandemic Period edited by Sagar Simlandy by : Various Contributors
Download or read book Economic Crisis and Mentality of Youth in Post-Pandemic Period edited by Sagar Simlandy written by Various Contributors and published by PS Opus Publications. This book was released on 2021-07-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the outcome of an intellectual exercise to understand our post-COVID society. Our planet is convalescing from one of the worst pandemics in living memory – the whole of 2020 has been sacrificed to combat the iniquities perpetrated by a sub-microscopic conglomeration of proteins and nucleic acids, a virus that has achieved immortality in the annals of history as SARS-COVID-19. Deaths from COVID-19 in USA have crossed 405,399 – the number of Americans who died in the Second World War. The most important and, most far-reaching effect has of course been that of isolation, ‘lockdown’ in colloquial usage. That term is now probably the most widely understood English word across the inhabited world from the poles to the tropics, even in non-English speaking countries like China and Japan. The primary effect of this lockdown has been on the economy – from developed to developing countries, there are none that may claim to have escaped the paralyzing debilitation caused by an instant and total absence of all forms of commerce. Long queues in front of provision stores, slow starvation as savings dried up, people begging for scraps, people dying by the roadside and railway tracks as they set out to walk the length and breadth of the country en-route to their homes from their places of work – all these shocking pictures are now part of our heritage. An online society has cropped up as the new normal one, sustained by internet, apps, tweeter, and face-book and so on. It is needless to say that this digital society is the child of no other than the Corona virus. What is different today is the loss of vision. Men have distanced themselves not only from their friends but also from their productive energy and sustainable creativity.
Book Synopsis Religion, Spirituality and Secularity among Millennials by : Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme
Download or read book Religion, Spirituality and Secularity among Millennials written by Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-19 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the world of religion, spirituality and secularity among the Millennial generation in the United States and Canada, with a focus on the ways Millennials are doing (non)religion differently in their social lives compared with their parents and grandparents. It considers the influences exercised on the (non)religious and spiritual landscapes of young adults in North America by the digital age, precarious work, growing pluralism, extreme individualism, environmental crisis, advanced urbanism, expanded higher education, emerging adulthood, and a secular age. Based on extensive primary and secondary quantitative data, complemented with high-quality qualitative research, including interviews and focus groups, this book offers cross-national comparisons between the United States and Canada to highlight the impact of different social environments on the experience of religion, spirituality and secularity among the continent’s most numerous generation. As such, it will appeal to scholars of religion and sociology, with interests in religious and societal change as well as in religious practice among young adults.
Book Synopsis Workplace and Employee Health in the Post-Pandemic World; Strategies, Risks, and Challenges by : Muhammad Salman Shabbir
Download or read book Workplace and Employee Health in the Post-Pandemic World; Strategies, Risks, and Challenges written by Muhammad Salman Shabbir and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-09 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the economies, public health, and medical care systems. It is also shaping the future of work. The pandemic has normalized various trends about work, with significant implications for enterprises, employee health, and wellbeing. Internationally, employers, government agencies, public health agencies, trade unions, and professional associations have dealt with maintaining economic activity while keeping workers safe and healthy. The pandemic has emphasized the importance of work in shaping population health and wellbeing. This perspective implies a multilevel system framework to aid in understanding the complex and diverse interactions of factors impacting worker health and wellbeing. It also implies how trending changes in employment and working conditions have been accelerated by the pandemic. Government organizations concerned with population health and wellbeing, and economic activity must expand their capability to screen, assess, and react to these trends after the pandemic. Additionally, integrated enterprise and workplace-based approaches that consider the interactions among these multidimensional drivers will build organization and worker resilience to navigate the continual changes in work and worker safety, health, and wellbeing in a post-pandemic world.
Book Synopsis Reimagining Communication in a Post-pandemic World: The Intersection of Information, Media Technology, and Psychology by : Runxi Zeng
Download or read book Reimagining Communication in a Post-pandemic World: The Intersection of Information, Media Technology, and Psychology written by Runxi Zeng and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-04-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed social interactions. Social distancing policies, lockdowns, and mandatory quarantines have accelerated the technological mediation of communication (e.g. AI-mediated communication, computer-mediated communication) on an unprecedented scale, willingly or otherwise. Many physical activities such as office work, education, and conferences have had to be performed in the online space through social media apps, the metaverse or specialized programs on mobile phones or laptops as part of pandemic control efforts. As a result, digitally mediated channels have become critical for information acquisition and communication across a wide spectrum of human activities such as education, social interaction, entertainment, and commercial activities. Human beings are increasingly reliant on non-human agents, including social media, Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered tools, or smartphone mobile devices for most routine activities, professional communication, and social interactions. As scientific understanding of COVID-19 improves, pandemic restrictions are gradually loosening. However, it remains to be seen whether the pandemic communication paradigm characterized by heavy technological mediation and reliance on non-human agents will also gradually decline, or will the paradigm shift become deeply entrenched with further acceleration of dependency on technological mediation and non-human agents.
