Book Synopsis Basic Needs, Wellbeing and Morality by : Darcia Narvaez
Download or read book Basic Needs, Wellbeing and Morality written by Darcia Narvaez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic needs fulfilment is fundamental to becoming human and reaching one’s potential. Extending the BUCET list proposed by Susan Fiske - which includes belonging, understanding, control/competence, autonomy, self-enhancement, trust, purpose and life satisfaction - this book demonstrates that the fulfilment of basic needs predicts adult physical and mental health, as well as sociality and morality. The authors suggest that meeting basic needs in childhood vitally shapes one’s trajectory for self-actualization, and that initiatives aimed at human wellbeing should include a greater emphasis on early childhood experience. Through contemporaneous and retrospective research in childhood, the authors argue that basic need-fulfilment is key to the development of the self and the possibility of reaching one’s full potential. This book will be of interest to scholars of human wellbeing and societal flourishing, as well as to health workers and educators.

Book Synopsis Basic Needs by : Vanessa Jimenez Gabb
Download or read book Basic Needs written by Vanessa Jimenez Gabb and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. I will receive money once, begins Vanessa Jimenez Gabb's BASIC NEEDS, a candid, sensitive inquiry into love in the time of capitalism. Following from Gabb's debut collection, IMAGES OF RADICAL POLITICS, BASIC NEEDS traces the alienations, catches, and contradictions of current life and work: No cogito ergo sum but I am because I am having, and no direct actions but constant shivering consequences, all of the little fires / freezing revolutions. Nevertheless, Gabb asserts, to love / has not been more difficult // than deciding to. With formal fluctuation and complicated hope, the three movements of BASIC NEEDS engage labor, love, and the lives we are able to create: We have / our passions / and don't / know how / it will end, though it cannot exist like this forever. Anyone who has ever wondered what a Marxist love poem might look like need look no further than Vanessa Jimenez Gabb's BASIC NEEDS. With its focus on living--how it is done, in a country where workers have had to die for an eight-hour work day & in a world where 'love is indeed a stranger to most people, ' this stunning collection of poems manages to get at what is most necessary when trying, not just to survive, but find love that might one day lead to life outside of 'this system.' & that love is unabashedly anti-capitalist, which makes me especially thankful for the ' 'wayward light / in the poems' here.--Wendy Trevino Powerful, elegant, lush, disorienting, philosophical, honest and cutting, full of life, clarity, energy, vulnerability and beauty. These are some of the terms that come to mind when I think of Vanessa Jimenez Gabb's vibrant new book. Here is a poetics of labor, history, brokenness, money, solidarity, ecology. Here is a book that thinks and loves deeply in order to survive the infinite collapse of the system.--Daniel Borzutzky

Book Synopsis Organizations for People by : Michael O'Malley
Download or read book Organizations for People written by Michael O'Malley and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, there has been quite a bit of talk about employee engagement as a means to lift corporate profits and reduce absenteeism and turnover. However, this talk has not produced better companies. In fact, the evidence shows that incivility and instances of employee abuse are getting worse. Additionally, with profit as the primary goal of organizations, most employees view any benign treatment they receive as a secondary convenience that will dissipate once corporate fortunes decline. That is, many employees still believe they are expendable in the eyes of their employers. This book turns that equation around by examining the practices of twenty-one companies that put the interests and needs of employees first. Profits are necessary but insufficient for corporate health. The companies featured in this book see it as their mission to offer people a better, more fulfilling life for themselves, and assist with that holistic journey by providing the organizational elements people need to reach their potential. They do this first by creating respectful and kind cultures that treat every person as an equal, sentient partner in the success of the company. Second, they diligently work to satisfy people's basic needs: financial security, belonging, meaning, autonomy, self-acceptance, self-confidence, and growth. The result is a web of fellow-feeling: earnest affection among people who feverishly work to live up to both the high standards of the institution and their obligations to one another. By providing a place where people can do their best work and thrive as individuals and as members of a cohesive community, everyone profits.

Book Synopsis The Limits of Choice by : Sahra Wagenknecht
Download or read book The Limits of Choice written by Sahra Wagenknecht and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 2013-10-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Limits of Choice, Sahra Wagenknecht examines household saving decisions and basic needs in Germany and the United States, based on official data from both countries from the 1950s to present day. Arguing against the hypothesis that assumes consumers optimize their consumption intertemporally based exclusively on their permanent or lifetime income, Wagenknecht proposes a rule of thumb, according to which consumers will save if their current income exceeds basic expenditure, while they will demand credit when income can no longer meet basic needs.
Book Synopsis The Basic Needs of a Woman in Labour by : Ruth Ehrhardt
Download or read book The Basic Needs of a Woman in Labour written by Ruth Ehrhardt and published by True Midwifery. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her book, midwife Ruth Ehrhardt very simply explores, as the title suggests, how the basic needs of labouring women can be met. It takes into consideration the subtle effect environmental factors have on labour and what those attending births need to be aware of. Drawing on the work of Michel Odent, it focuses quite plainly on the physiology of labour, childbirth and postpartum. This book is aimed at pregnant mothers as well as those attending births, whether in the capacity as caregiver (doctor, midwife, doula) or partner. "To bring together what is important in such a small number of pages is a feat. I hope that, on the five continents, all pregnant women, midwives, doulas, doctors, etc. will take the time to assimilate the contents of this chef d'oeuvre: it will be a turning point in the history of childbirth and therefore in the history of mankind." - Michel Odent
Book Synopsis Choice Theory by : William Glasser, M.D.
Download or read book Choice Theory written by William Glasser, M.D. and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-11-16 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. William Glasser offers a new psychology that, if practiced, could reverse our widespread inability to get along with one another, an inability that is the source of almost all unhappiness. For progress in human relationships, he explains that we must give up the punishing, relationship–destroying external control psychology. For example, if you are in an unhappy relationship right now, he proposes that one or both of you could be using external control psychology on the other. He goes further. And suggests that misery is always related to a current unsatisfying relationship. Contrary to what you may believe, your troubles are always now, never in the past. No one can change what happened yesterday.

Book Synopsis A Basic Needs Policy Model by : A. Kouwenaar
Download or read book A Basic Needs Policy Model written by A. Kouwenaar and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using recent research on Ecuador, this book discusses a social accounting matrix (SAM)-based model for simulating the effects of basic needs policies on various socio-economic groups. Specific parameter choice and specification of relationships allow the general equilibrium model to capture rigidities and occurrences of non-perfect commodity and factor markets. Basic needs satisfaction is described as an ``output'' resulting from income formation and expenditure, and dynamically linked to the structural processes of household and socio-economic group formation, formation of the labour force and wealth, and labour productivity. Simulations concentrate on the effects of various expenditure, indirect tax and redistributive policies on incomes and basic needs satisfaction.
