Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Targeted advertisements, tailored information feeds, and recommended content are now common and somewhat inescapable components of our everyday lives. With the help of searches, browsing history, purchases, likes, and other digital interactions, technological experiences are now routinely "personalized." Companies with access to this information often downplay the fact that users' personal data serves as a key form of monetization, and their privacy policies tend to use the terms "personalization" and "customization" to legitimize the practice of tracking and algorithmically anticipating users' daily movements. In Making it Personal, Tanya Kant sheds light on the dilemmas of algorithmic personalization, exploring such key contemporary questions as: What do users really know about the algorithms that guide their online experiences and social media presence? And if personalization practices seek to act on our behalf, then how can users constitute, retain, or relinquish their autonomy and sense of self? At the heart of the book are new interviews and focus groups with web users who-through a myriad of resistant, tactical, resigned or trusting engagements-encounter algorithmic personalization as part of their lived experience on the web. Tanya Kant proposes that for those who encounter it, algorithmic personalization creates epistemic uncertainties that can emerge as trust or anxiety, produces an ongoing struggle for autonomy between user and system, and even has the power to intervene in identity constitution. In doing so, algorithmic personalization does not just generate "filter bubbles" for individuals' worldviews, but also creates new implications for knowledge production, the deployment of cultural capital as an algorithmic tactic, and, above all, formations of identity itself.

Book excerpt: Public social services are increasingly being individualised in order to better meet the differentiated needs of competent and independent citizens and to promote the effectiveness of social interventions. This book addresses this development, focusing on a new type of social services that has become crucial in the 'modernisation' of welfare states: activation services. The book discusses and analyses the individualisation of activation services against the background of social policy reforms on the one hand, and the introduction of new forms of public governance on the other. Critically discussing the rise of individualised social services in the light of various theoretical points of view, it analyses the way in which activation and the 'active subject' are presented in EU discourse. It compares the introduction of individualised activation services in five EU welfare states: the UK, Germany, Italy, Finland and the Czech Republic, focusing on official policies as well as policy practices. The book provides original insights into the phenomenon of the individualised provision of activation services. It is useful reading for policy makers as well as for students and researchers of welfare states, social policies and public governance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the world of harmonious collaboration, how does your rhythm of connection set the beat? The resounding wisdom of Frank Iero reverberates: "The best music happens when you have a personal connection to it." As a devoted music lover and practitioner, I've realized this philosophy extends far beyond melodies—it's a universal truth that underscores every interaction and achievement in life. Make It Personal: Discover the Five Dimensions of Human Collaboration in the Workplace unravels a journey through diverse experiences. As a musician, the flute, piano, and saxophone have been my companions, each whispering the importance of personal bonds. From early days with a plastic Yamaha recorder to navigating cross-industry corporate leadership, connection weaves through every note of my life's symphony, where music has been a metaphor for collaboration. Life's composition ventured into technology. As a senior leader orchestrating global innovation and transformation, the familiar cadence of personal connection echoed—why do some collaborations flourish while others falter? What sparks successful relationships in a world dominated by algorithms? In the crucible of these questions, my pursuit evolved into an academic endeavor. My exploration traversed studies, culminating in a doctoral thesis that uncovered human collaboration's five dimensions. Each melody-like dimension intertwines, creating a harmonious resonance that elevates relationships and drives innovation. Leadership, I've found, isn't confined to titles; it emanates from the heart. Minouche Shafik's words resonate: "In the future, jobs will be about using our hearts." This sentiment drives my academic exploration into a guide for nurturing workplace connections. Make It Personal melds academic insight with relatable narratives. Characters inspired by real experiences offer perspectives that illustrate collaboration's dimensions. My anecdotes provide the delicate counterpoint that accentuates the symphony of workplace connections and transformations – a journey guided by the belief that true collaboration emerges from the heart.

Book excerpt: What if knowing the answers to five simple questions could give a kid hope?In a world where kids are known by a number on a jersey, digits on a car pool tag, and random usernames, we need more adults who will stop and take the time to know them personally.It's Personal is for volunteers and other leaders who work with children and teenagers. A practical guide for a personal (and more effective and fulfilling) approach to leading kids, It's Personal revisits the story of Zacchaeus and explores Jesus' simple model for how to be personal. Jesus' encounter with Zacchaeus shows us how to engage kids and teenagers personally to give them a renewed sense of identity, belonging, and purpose.Something remarkable can happen when you start seeing people the way Jesus sees them.Taking the time to answer the five questions in this book for a kid or teenager could radically change someone's faith, maybe even yours.

Book excerpt: Why are so many Christians living such empty, fruitless lives? Why is their faith so weak, their character so shallow? Perhaps it's because they have merely inherited someone else's Jesus. They've relied on what their family, friends, or pastors have told them about Jesus rather than discovering the living Lord themselves. A true storyteller and a teacher with a heart for ministry, Mark Hall traces the downward spiral caused by spiritual compromise with the World, and then charts the upward road to wholeness and health that comes when we claim our very own Jesus. When that happens, believers experience authentic fellowship with the one living God. Through fascinating personal stories, scriptural insights, and practical interactive studies, Your Own Jesus will set readers free to live without compromise with the Jesus they come to know intimately and love fully.

Book excerpt: My interest in cannabis began when I was a teenager, and it never ended. I was that passionate about it that people even turned away from me; all had their reasons. Many of them thought cannabis use was wrong basing their beliefs on moral or political ideas. Even today there are people who do not accept that cannabis has medicinal use. Such thinking underestimates the true benefits of this ancient medicine. Making Cannabis Personal is meant to educate people on how cannabis is helping the human especies find wellness and remove the ridiculous stigma still associated such as "but people who use cannabis are just criminals or addicts". People use cannabis therapeutically and benefit from the medicinal properties of cannabis in unexpected ways. That's what this book is about. You will discover amazing stories and miraculous events from experiences of random clients I have helped. Each person from these stories who uses cannabis for wellness has a different experience. Starting from their genetics. Your DNA is personal to you. Cannabis responses are based on each person's genetics, so the responses are personal. I devote several chapters to explain how genetics interacts with cannabinoids to create truly unique experiences. I chronicle how many different people found treatments to recover from illnesses and alleviate conditions that afflict them. In this book I convey stories that may relate to your life, finding out if you're one of these people like Jim, a vet suffering PTSD who found pain relief that helped him get off opioids. Or like Grandma Mary, a woman suffering from side effects of chemo, who found comfort without feeling side effects from cannabis use. Both found comfort in specific CBD formulations that were tailored specifically to match their individual DNA profiles. Writing this book is also a way for me to inspire readers by telling the stories of how everyday people found solutions. My own story is included. How I went from being broke and homeless to being a popular presenter at international conferences. This book chronicles how I turned my passion into a career. I talk about my early entrepreneurial days on the street, the laboratory hours spent testing and classifying cannabis strains, opening and running dispensaries in SoCal, and then building a biotechnology company committed to helping consumers find cannabinoid products that enhance their health and wellness. I'll share what I learned in my journey. As CEO of EndoCanna Health, I help others discover how to use cannabis to better their lives. Cannabis is therapeutic. It affects everyone differently, that's why cannabis is personal. Would you like to join in this story?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHILE THERE WERE STILL WILD BIRDS is a personal history of Southern quail hunting as it was lived at three different South Carolina quail hunting clubs and by related dog trainers, hunting guides, and hunters. The author's father, Richard E. Rankin Sr., belonged to the first hunting club in Kline, South Carolina, and was a founding partner in the second hunting club, the Quail Roost Hunt Club, outside Manning, South Carolina. The third club featured was the Foreston Hunt Club, an adjoining neighbor of the Quail Roost Hunt Club. As both a family member, hunt club partner, and historian, Richard E. Rankin Jr. tells this story as both a participant and as an objective observer. This study covers a span of time from the mid 1930s through and after the mid 1980s when the massive collapse of the quail population ended wild bird hunting.

An author’s note provides historical background and a time line of late twentieth-century peace movements.
