Download or read book Waking the Frog written by Tom Rand and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “provocative [and] compelling” look at how we can achieve both economic growth and environmental sustainability (Columbus Dispatch). A venture capitalist, entrepreneur, and engineer, Tom Rand looks to contemporary psychology, economics, business, and finance to explain our difficulty in confronting one of the most fundamental problems of our time. Rand’s account doesn’t just point fingers at the bad guys, but goes deeper—to our motivations, institutional lethargy, and deeply buried assumptions about market economics. Waking the Frog reveals that our ingenuity, technology, capital, and policy can work together to turn down the heat—and at the same time enable the largest economic opportunity of the twenty-first century. “There are a plethora of books on climate disruption. Read this one. Waking the Frog has breadth, science, practice, enterprise, and vision.” —Paul Hawken, author of Blessed Unrest
Download or read book Waking the Frog written by Tom Rand and published by ReadHowYouWant. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible discussion of ways to achieve a sustainable future. Venture capitalist, entrepreneur, engineer, and philosopher Tom Rand explains why climate disruption might just be our very own pot of hot water. Are we the frog paralyzed in our inaction? In a highly readable account, Rand looks to contemporary psychology, economics, business, and finance to explain our stasis in the face of one of the most fundamental problems of our time. Rand's account doesn't just point fingers at the bad guys, but goes deeper - to our motivations, institutional lethargy, and deeply buried assumptions about market economics. Waking the Frog is as much about solutions as it is an account of our present paralysis. Our ingenuity, technology, capital, and policy can work together to turn down the heat and at the same time enable the largest economic opportunity of the 21st century.

Download or read book Frog written by Mo Yan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-01-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES TOP BOOK OF 2015 WASHINGTON POST NOTABLE BOOK The author of Red Sorghum and China’s most revered and controversial novelist returns with his first major publication since winning the Nobel Prize In 2012, the Nobel committee confirmed Mo Yan’s position as one of the greatest and most important writers of our time. In his much-anticipated new novel, Mo Yan chronicles the sweeping history of modern China through the lens of the nation’s controversial one-child policy. Frog opens with a playwright nicknamed Tadpole who plans to write about his aunt. In her youth, Gugu—the beautiful daughter of a famous doctor and staunch Communist—is revered for her skill as a midwife. But when her lover defects, Gugu’s own loyalty to the Party is questioned. She decides to prove her allegiance by strictly enforcing the one-child policy, keeping tabs on the number of children in the village, and performing abortions on women as many as eight months pregnant. In sharply personal prose, Mo Yan depicts a world of desperate families, illegal surrogates, forced abortions, and the guilt of those who must enforce the policy. At once illuminating and devastating, it shines a light into the heart of communist China.

Now this life-changing global bestseller has been adapted to the specific needs of students.

He celebrates the moment between winter and spring - known to sugarmakers as "the frog run"--When the tree frogs begin to be heard and the last run of sap good for making syrup flows from the maples. For Elder, who also writes in this book about the resurgence of New England forests and about his life as a reader, the frog run is a time to savor and celebrate the fleeting beauties of his family's place on earth."--BOOK JACKET.

But when the two rivals have a close encounter with a snappy alligator, both Frog and Toad see the benefit of joining forces. Perhaps they're not so different after all?"--Publisher's description.
