Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day we are inundated by propaganda that claims life will be better once we are connected to digital technology. Poverty, famine, and injustice will end, and the economy will be “green.” All anyone needs is the latest smartphone. In this succinct and lively book, Maxwell and Miller take a critical look at contemporary gadgets and the systems that connect them, shedding light on environmental risks. Contrary to widespread claims, consumer electronics and other digital technologies are made in ways that cause some of the worst environmental disasters of our time – conflict-minerals extraction, fatal and life-threatening occupational hazards, toxic pollution of ecosystems, rising energy consumption linked to increased carbon emissions, and e-waste. Nonetheless, a greener future is possible, in which technology meets its emancipatory and progressive potential. How Green is Your Smartphone? encourages us to look at our phones in a wholly new way, and is important reading for anyone concerned by the impact of everyday technologies on our environment.

Book excerpt: This book represents the first anthropological ethnography of Ikea consumption and goes to the heart of understanding the unique and at times frantic popularity of this one iconic transnational store. Based on a year of participant observation in Stockholm’s Kungens Kurva store – the largest in the world - this book places the retailer squarely within the realm of the home-building efforts of individuals in Stockholm and to a lesser degree in Dublin. Ikea, the world’s largest retailer and one of its most interesting, is the focus of intense popular fascination internationally, yet is rarely subject to in-depth anthropological inquiry. In Unpacking Ikea, Garvey explores why Ikea is never ‘just a store’ for its customers, and questions why it is described in terms of a cultural package, as everyday and classless. Using in-depth interviews with householders over several years, this ethnographic study follows the furniture from the Ikea store outwards to probe what people actually take home with them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel Miller spent 18 months undertaking an ethnographic study with the residents of an English village, tracking their use of the different social media platforms. Following his study, he argues that a focus on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram does little to explain what we post on social media. Instead, the key to understanding how people in an English village use social media is to appreciate just how ‘English’ their usage has become. He introduces the ‘Goldilocks Strategy’: how villagers use social media to calibrate precise levels of interaction ensuring that each relationship is neither too cold nor too hot, but ‘just right’.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the World Changed Social Media is the first book in Why We Post, a book series that investigates the findings of anthropologists who each spent 15 months living in communities across the world. This book offers a comparative analysis summarising the results of the research and explores the impact of social media on politics and gender, education and commerce. What is the result of the increased emphasis on visual communication? Are we becoming more individual or more social? Why is public social media so conservative? Why does equality online fail to shift inequality offline? How did memes become the moral police of the internet? Supported by an introduction to the project’s academic framework and theoretical terms that help to account for the findings, the book argues that the only way to appreciate and understand something as intimate and ubiquitous as social media is to be immersed in the lives of the people who post. Only then can we discover how people all around the world have already transformed social media in such unexpected ways and assess the consequences

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facebook is now used by nearly 500 million people throughout the world, many of whom spend several hours a day on this site. Once the preserve of youth, the largest increase in usage today is amongst the older sections of the population. Yet until now there has been no major study of the impact of these social networking sites upon the lives of their users. This book demonstrates that it can be profound. The tales in this book reveal how Facebook can become the means by which people find and cultivate relationships, but can also be instrumental in breaking up marriage. They reveal how Facebook can bring back the lives of people isolated in their homes by illness or age, by shyness or failure, but equally Facebook can devastate privacy and create scandal. We discover why some people believe that the truth of another person lies more in what you see online than face-to-face. We also see how Facebook has become a vehicle for business, the church, sex and memorialisation. After a century in which we have assumed social networking and community to be in decline, Facebook has suddenly hugely expanded our social relationships, challenging the central assumptions of social science. It demonstrates one of the main tenets of anthropology - that individuals have always been social networking sites. This book examines in detail how Facebook transforms the lives of particular individuals, but it also presents a general theory of Facebook as culture and considers the likely consequences of social networking in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do we know about ordinary people in our towns and cities, about what really matters to them and how they organize their lives today? This book visits an ordinary street and looks into thirty households. It reveals the aspirations and frustrations, the tragedies and accomplishments that are played out behind the doors. It focuses on the things that matter to these people, which quite often turn out to be material things – their house, the dog, their music, the Christmas decorations. These are the means by which they express who they have become, and relationships to objects turn out to be central to their relationships with other people – children, lovers, brothers and friends. If this is a typical street in a modern city like London, then what kind of society is this? It’s not a community, nor a neighbourhood, nor is it a collection of isolated individuals. It isn’t dominated by the family. We assume that social life is corrupted by materialism, made superficial and individualistic by a surfeit of consumer goods, but this is misleading. If the street isn’t any of these things, then what is it? This brilliant and revealing portrayal of a street in modern London, written by one the most prominent anthropologists, shows how much is to be gained when we stop lamenting what we think we used to be and focus instead on what we are now becoming. It reveals the forms by which ordinary people make sense of their lives, and the ways in which objects become our companions in the daily struggle to make life meaningful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropology has two main tasks: to understand what it is to be human and to examine how humanity is manifested differently in the diversity of culture. These tasks have gained new impetus from the extraordinary rise of the digital. This book brings together several key anthropologists working with digital culture to demonstrate just how productive an anthropological approach to the digital has already become. Through a range of case studies from Facebook to Second Life to Google Earth, Digital Anthropology explores how human and digital can be defined in relation to one another, from avatars and disability; cultural differences in how we use social networking sites or practise religion; the practical consequences of the digital for politics, museums, design, space and development to new online world and gaming communities. The book also explores the moral universe of the digital, from new anxieties to open-source ideals. Digital Anthropology reveals how only the intense scrutiny of ethnography can overturn assumptions about the impact of digital culture and reveal its profound consequences for everyday life. Combining the clarity of a textbook with an engaging style which conveys a passion for these new frontiers of enquiry, this book is essential reading for students and scholars of anthropology, media studies, communication studies, cultural studies and sociology.

Book excerpt: Como Alcanzar una Mentalidad Mas Fuerte en el Triatlon utilizando la Meditacion es una de las mejores formas de alcanzar su verdadero potencial. Comer bien y entrenar son dos de las piezas del rompecabezas, pero necesita la tercera pieza para alcanzar su verdadero máximo de rendimiento. La tercera pieza es dureza mental y puedes obtenerlo a través de la meditación.Si observa a los atletas que practican meditación regularmente encontrará que son, o poseen:-Más seguridad durante la competición.-Estrés reducido.-Mejor capacidad de concentración durante largos períodos de tiempo.-Menor fatiga muscular.-Tiempos más veloces de recuperación después de competir o entrenar.-Mayor resiliencia.-Mayor y más equilibrio en el desempeño bajo presión.¿Qué más se puede pedir como deportista?Cuando se considera desbloquear el verdadero potencial, son muchos los atletas que se centran en el aspecto físico y nutricional.Los objetivos de una preparación profesional, a menudo, pasan por alto el potencial interno, capaz de conseguirse a través de prácticas como la meditación y la visualización. Es común ver beneficios o mejoras físicas debido a entrenamientos físicos, pero lo que muchos atletas no saben es que la meditación ha demostrado también, elevar significativamente el rendimiento y la salud física.Alcanzar su máximo rendimiento requiere de un entrenamiento y estimulación en el ámbito físico y mental. Si estos puntos no se tienen en cuenta conjuntamente, ocurre lo que a muchos deportistas, a los cuales se les dificulta conseguir un equilibrio dentro de un nivel de profesionalismo superior. Con el fin de dar lo mejor de ti, debes aceptar que el cuerpo y la mente son complementos de una sola cosa, y que trabajándolos conjuntamente lograrás alcanzar tus metas.La meditación como ejercicio, ayuda a fortalecer tu mente de la misma manera en que impacta positivamente en tu cuerpo, en constante evolución a medida que tú practicas.El acondicionamiento físico, la nutrición y meditación son las tres claves para lograr un estado de óptimo rendimiento. La mayoría de los atletas no ponen tanta atención a la meditación como deberían, ya que su preocupación se centra en la apariencia física y en la percepción de otros sobre ellos mismos.En la meditación los resultados, no son algo que verás físicamente, sino más bien en cómo te sientes y en tu nueva habilidad para controlar tus pensamientos y emociones. Al comenzar tus sesiones de meditación y ser disciplinado y constante, notarás mejoras significativas en cómo respondes ante la ansiedad, la presión y el estrés, tres de los principales problemas en que la mayoría de los atletas tienen inconvenientes de superación, todo intentando alcanzar tu verdadero potencial.Cambia tu vida y comienza a usar la meditación para sobrepasar tus límites y liberarte.(c) 2015 Correa Media Group

Durante los últimos cinco años, los deportistas Purple Patch han participado o subido al podio en más de 150 campeonatos Ironman® y Ironman 70.3®, así que son la prueba evidente de que sabe lo que se hace. Pero estos profesionales no entrenan de acuerdo con los métodos convencionales. En El entrenamiento del triatleta, Dixon acaba con los mitos que rodean al triatlón y explica con todo lujo de detalles cuál es la mejor forma de enfrentarse al deporte de nadar-pedalear-correr. Su programa de entrenamiento progresivo se basa en la creencia de que el rendimiento se apoya en cuatro pilares igualmente importantes: entrenamiento, recuperación, nutrición y fuerza. Cuando uno de estos pilares no se desarrolla lo suficiente, los deportistas no muestran todo su potencial. El entrenamiento del triatleta empieza con una exhaustiva autoevaluación para identificar los desequilibrios que amenazan el rendimiento y, a continuación, ofrece las herramientas necesarias para que pueda dar el máximo: · Directrices y protocolos para mejorar la constancia y la recuperación del entrenamiento. · Consejos sensatos sobre nutrición, avituallamiento e hidratación para triatlón. · Pruebas y ejercicios de fuerza funcional para iniciar un programa que permita mejorar la resiliencia. · Ejemplo de bloques de dos semanas para cada fase de entrenamiento y cómo preparar unas Olimpiadas, el medio Ironman y el Ironman. · Sesiones de entrenamiento para evolucionar como nadador, ciclista y corredor. Este libro revolucionario le ayudará a implementar el programa; y a mejorar su rendimiento año tras año.

Book excerpt: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 45. Chapters: Old Tupi Language. Excerpt: A triathlon is a multi-sport endurance event consisting of swimming, cycling, and running in immediate succession over various distances. Triathletes compete for fastest overall course completion time, including timed "transitions" between the individual swim, bike, and run components. Triathlon races vary in distance. According to the International Triathlon Union, and USA Triathlon, the main international race distances are Sprint distance (750 m swim, 20 km bike, 5 km run), Intermediate distance, commonly referred to as "Olympic distance" (1.5 km swim, 40 km ride, 10 km run), the Long Course (1.9 km swim, 90 km ride, 21.1 km run, such as the Half Ironman), and Ultra Distance (3.8 km swim, 180 km ride, and a marathon: 42.2 km run); the most popular branded Ultra Distance is the Ironman triathlon. Transition areas are positioned both between the swim and bike segments (T1), and between the bike and run segments (T2), and are often just one checkpoint, especially in shorter courses. These areas are used to store bicycles, performance apparel, and any other accessories essential for preparing and gearing for the next stage of the race. The transition times (T1 and T2) are included in the overall time of the race. So speed during transitionremoving the wetsuit, putting on the helmet, putting on the running shoesis essential. Elite triathletes have the bicycle shoes mounted on the bikes before the race and place their feet into them when riding. In large races, transitions areas may be up to a kilometer long, and store over 2000 entrants' bicycles. In addition, these areas provide a social headquarters prior to the race, and are an integral part of triathlon culture. The demanding nature of the sport focuses primarily on persistent and often periodized training in each of the three disciplin...

Book excerpt: Este libro engloba el fenómeno del triatlón en toda su complejidad estructurado en cuatro dimensiones: - Dimensión histórica y sociocultural, para situar la llegada del triatlón dentro de su contexto histórico y saber la razón de su explosión en todo el mundo. - Dimensión fisiológica, para precisar algunas nociones fundamentales e indispensables para comprender los mecanismos que controlan la actividad motriz del triatleta, con el único objetivo de que el lector pueda analizar su propia práctica pensando en las vías energéticas que utiliza, la intervención de grupos musculares específicos, la estrategia motriz con vistas a un rendimiento óptimo, la higiene alimentaria, etc. - Dimensión técnica pura, en la que se analizan con detenimiento los principios de eficacia motriz en los tres deportes, antes de detallar las características específicas del triatlón. - Dimensión pedagógica, ante todo, "práctico" y por eso incluye programas de entrenamiento, producto de la experiencia de los autores como triatletas y entrenadores de club. También propone un gran número de sesiones tomadas de los tres deportes y combinadas en un entrenamiento "cruzado", enriquecido con las aportaciones tonificantes de los estiramientos y la musculación adaptada. Ofrece, asimismo, una multitud de "recetas" sobre el triatlón, enfocadas tanto al entrenamiento como a la competición.
