Book Synopsis The Connected Home: The Future of Domestic Life by : Richard Harper
Download or read book The Connected Home: The Future of Domestic Life written by Richard Harper and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this new book: “The Connected Home” reflects the move away from the idea that smart homes would alter the lives of those living in them by providing technologies to take over tasks that were previously the responsibility of the householder, such as managing entertainment, education – and even eating! Up until around 10 years ago this view was commonplace but time has shown that the technologies to support a smart home have not developed in such a way as to support this premise. Instead, what people do in their homes has moved the concept of a smart home into that of the ‘connected home’. The rise of on-line games technologies, video connections via Skype, social networking, internet browsing etc are now an integral part of the home environment and have had a significant effect on the home. The contributors to this exciting new book consider and discuss the effects and ramifications of the connected home from a variety of viewpoints: an examination of the take-up of personal computers and the Internet in domestic situations; an analysis of the changing intersection of technology and human habits in the connected home; the impact of gaming, texting, e-book readers, tablets and other devices and their effect on the social conditions of a household; the relationship between digital messaging applications and real geography; and an overview of how sensing technologies for the smart home might evolve (lightweight medical technologies for example). The book culminates by addressing unfinished ambitions from the smart home agenda, the factors that have prevented their realisation, and addresses the need for extending research into the area.
Download or read book Selling Change written by Brett Clay and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2009-12-31 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of globalization and Internet commoditization, salespeople are in danger of becoming irrelevant.In this Darwinian environment, the traditional approach of selling solutions to problems no longer creates profitable differentiation. To survive, salespeople must become agents of change and help customers achieve their goals rather than simply solve their problems. This new, change-centric approach is the next evolution in selling, enabling companies to develop deeper, more profitable customer relationships and to be more agile and adaptive to changing conditions.With twenty years of experience, most recently with Microsoft, Brett Clay has developed a complete toolset for change-centric salespeople, including 101 secrets for growing sales and delivering high value to customers. Readers will understand the five disciplines of change leadership and the secrets of change psychology that will turn them into vital assets for their customers and help them achieve explosive sales growth.

Book Synopsis Smutty Little Movies by : Peter Alilunas
Download or read book Smutty Little Movies written by Peter Alilunas and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1970s, the adult film industry began the transition from celluloid to home video. Smutty Little Movies traces this change and examines the cultural and legal efforts to regulate, contain, limit, or eradicate pornography. Drawing on a wide variety of materials, Smutty Little Movies de-centers the film text in favor of industry histories and contexts. In so doing, the book argues that the struggles to contain and regulate pleasure represent a primary starting point for situating adult video’s place in a larger history, not just of pornography, but of media history as a whole.

Book excerpt: Rethink Your Mindset to Reshape the Future Every company needs leaders who can spot and seize on opportunities at a moment’s notice. Every organization needs leaders who can rally teams together around new opportunities. Those who can see important, emerging trends foresee the coming disruption and harness those forces, translate them into actionable insights and motivation to fuel their company’s march into the future rather than ignoring or running or hiding from opportunities. In Mindshift: Transform Leadership, Drive Innovation, and Reshape the Future, technologist, strategist, keynote speaker, and award-winning author Brian Solis, Head of Global Innovation at ServiceNow, draws on his experience of leading initiatives that drive innovation and business transformation to deliver the empowering message that this is the time to change the world for the better. And that change starts with you.

Let this inspire, not frustrate you. Within these pages, you’ll gain access to the tools, insights, and lessons you need to become an unstoppable leader, regardless of your roles. You’ll learn how to: Adapt for a post-industrial, AI-first world Find direction in uncertainty Spot and prioritize emerging trends Develop, spark, and embrace innovative ideas that create new value Learn to thrive in this new and shifting future Mindshift explains how you can make the mental shift to see past industrial-era business-as-usual mindsets, to become the visionary and voice for a future that doesn’t yet exist. Embracing a mindshift opens your potential to new possibilities, breaking the shackles of the status quo, and unlocking alternative, more meaningful destinies. Mindshift is perfect for anyone who knows a better future is possible, and who wants to make an impact, to reshape the modern business landscape, and develop the skills they need to thrive in a perpetual state of uncertainty. Mindshift is a can’t-miss resource for managers, executives, entrepreneurs, and anyone who cares about the future, their destiny, and the role they want to play in shaping tomorrow.

Book Synopsis The Equitable Cultural Tourism Handbook by : Dr. Alf H. Walle
Download or read book The Equitable Cultural Tourism Handbook written by Dr. Alf H. Walle and published by IAP. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this book is to deal, in a provocative way, with a number of key issues involving the increased participation of the private sector within cultural tourism. My goal is not to write a complete overview of the field. Instead, this short book deals with a fairly circumscribed set of issues involving contemporary changes within cultural tourism. Since modern business largely focuses on serving customers, a major focus of this book concerns marketing thought and its implications in regard to cultural tourism. In large measure, this book seeks to help host communities and their advocates to become familiar with and comfortable within a private sector context as well as being able to interact in such an environment. The book starts with a two-chapter introduction that focuses upon the distinctive role of cultural tourism. As emphasized in chapter 1, a dilemma arises because cultural tourism must simultaneously serve multiple stakeholders and do so in equitable ways. This is much more complex than the more typical task of concentrating upon the needs, wants, and desires of customers. These ideas are refined in chapter 2 where the discussion centers primarily upon the importance of serving host communities, in addition to customers. Certainly, catering to customers continues to be an issue, but it should be envisioned as an ad hoc method of serving the host community.
Book Synopsis Asia Future Shock by : Michael Backman
Download or read book Asia Future Shock written by Michael Backman and published by Palgrave MacMillan. This book was released on 2008 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformation of China, India and much of the rest of Asia is seismic. Never has the region changed so much in such a short time. But change means opportunity and risk – big risk. Do you know what to expect? Is your business prepared? Are you ready? The numbers are staggering: Within ten years, funds under management in China will grow to at least US$1.5 trillion, 100 million mainland Chinese tourists will pour out of China annually, Singapore will be a major haven for hidden offshore funds, Thai hospitals will be major providers of healthcare in Asia, the Middle East and to under-insured Americans, and shortages of management talent in India and China will be even more acute. Within 20 years, a billion more people will live in Asia’s cities than do already, China will be a major sophisticated weapons exporter, Malaysia will have almost run out of oil, and divorce and family breakdown will mean that the size of the average Asian household will be substantially smaller. Within 25 years, Japan’s population will have shrunk by 20 million, there will be 250 million more men than women in India and China, half the world’s nuclear reactors will be in Asia, the world’s biggest community of English speakers will be in China, and Asia-wide water shortages will see big hikes in food prices. Asia Future Shock is designed for corporate strategists and scenario builders, to alert them to these and other major shifts and to identify the opportunities and risks.

Book Synopsis The Dao of Capital by : Mark Spitznagel
Download or read book The Dao of Capital written by Mark Spitznagel and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-08-16 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As today's preeminent doomsday investor Mark Spitznagel describes his Daoist and roundabout investment approach, “one gains by losing and loses by gaining.” This is Austrian Investing, an archetypal, counterintuitive, and proven approach, gleaned from the 150-year-old Austrian School of economics, that is both timeless and exceedingly timely. In The Dao of Capital, hedge fund manager and tail-hedging pioneer Mark Spitznagel—with one of the top returns on capital of the financial crisis, as well as over a career—takes us on a gripping, circuitous journey from the Chicago trading pits, over the coniferous boreal forests and canonical strategists from Warring States China to Napoleonic Europe to burgeoning industrial America, to the great economic thinkers of late 19th century Austria. We arrive at his central investment methodology of Austrian Investing, where victory comes not from waging the immediate decisive battle, but rather from the roundabout approach of seeking the intermediate positional advantage (what he calls shi), of aiming at the indirect means rather than directly at the ends. The monumental challenge is in seeing time differently, in a whole new intertemporal dimension, one that is so contrary to our wiring. Spitznagel is the first to condense the theories of Ludwig von Mises and his Austrian School of economics into a cohesive and—as Spitznagel has shown—highly effective investment methodology. From identifying the monetary distortions and non-randomness of stock market routs (Spitznagel's bread and butter) to scorned highly-productive assets, in Ron Paul's words from the foreword, Spitznagel “brings Austrian economics from the ivory tower to the investment portfolio.” The Dao of Capital provides a rare and accessible look through the lens of one of today's great investors to discover a profound harmony with the market process—a harmony that is so essential today.
