Branding with Brains: The Science Of Getting Customers To Choose Your Company (Financial Times Ser.)
by Tjaco WalvisWhat has neuroscience got to do with branding? The link may not be immediately obvious, but the fact is, our brains select brands in much the same way that Google selects websites. So, just as web marketers play on Google’s algorithm to make sure their site appears as high up the search list as possible, brand marketers should play on the brain’s algorithm to make sure their brand is at the top of their customers’ minds at the moment they choose which brand to buy. This ground-breaking new book brings the proven effects of hard science to the creative practice of branding. It shows you how to harness this powerful combination to your own advantage by helping you understand how customers’ brains work when they choose brands. A strong brand cannot be build effectively without taking into account the laws of the brain – which, as this book shows, really exist and can be scientifically proven to work. Once you know this, you can apply the familiar branding laws of relevance, coherence and participation more precisely, more confidently and to much greater effect. This means your brand will have a much greater chance of being chosen by customers than your competitors’ brands. Branding with Brainsshatters the conventional approach to branding, which is based on hunches and intuition, by uncovering the hard, scientific truth about why customers choose some brands over others. Insights into company stories, from Leica to Innocent Drinks, from Starbucks to Schipol International Airport, give you the fascinating truth about how the processes that go on in our brain affect our decisions to buy a particular product or service. All in all, this breathtakingly radical new book from Tjaco Walvis presents a daringly different, state of the art approach to brand strategy that will help you build powerful brands more efficiently, more effectively and more reliably than ever before. Branding really is all in the mind – and this book proves it!

The Pullman Strike: A Gilded Age Clash between Labor, Capital, and Government (Critical Moments in American History)
by Edward T. O'DonnellThis book examines the 1894 Pullman Strike, one of the most consequential clashes between labor and capital that paralyzed America’s railroad system.The Gilded Age saw rapid economic growth, expansion of industrialization, and real wage growth. Yet between 1800 and 1900 there were nearly 37,000 strikes, and the Pullman Strike reflected the broad dissatisfaction and unrest among American workers. The book consists of an engaging narrative, analysis of existing scholarship, sidebars, and primary source documents which collectively answer why the Pullman Strike is so critical to the American Experience: it exposed the limits of paternalistic capitalism, revealed the extraordinary power of big business, introduced the use of injunctions to stop strikes, and launched the career of the iconic labor leader Eugene Debs. Overall, it reveals what struggles workers encountered when forming unions, the changing role of government regarding the economy, and the threat that unchecked big business posed to democracy.The Pullman Strike is useful for all undergraduate students who study the Gilded Age, industrial relations, and labor, urban, and economic history in the United States.
Critical Approaches to Death, Dying and Bereavement (Critical Approaches to Health)
by Erica Borgstrom Renske VisserThis book is the first of its kind to examine key topics in death, dying, and bereavement through a critical lens, highlighting how the understanding and experience of death can vary considerably, based on social, cultural, historical, political, and medical contexts. It looks at the complex ways in which death and dying are managed, from the political level down to end- of- life care, and the inequalities that surround and impact experiences of death, dying, and bereavement.Readers are introduced to key theories, such as the medicalisation of dying, as well as contemporary issues, such as social movements, pandemics, and assisted dying. The book stresses how death is not only a biological process or event but rather shaped by a range of intersecting factors. Issues of inequalities in health, inequities in support, and intersectional analyses are brought to the fore, and each chapter is dedicated to an issue that has interdisciplinary resonance, thus showcasing the wider sociocultural and political factors that impact this time of life.This book is valuable reading for scholars in thanatology and death studies, and for those in related fields such as sociology of health, medical and social anthropology, and interdisciplinary social science courses.
Belief, Behavior, and Health: Religion as a Social Determinant of Health
by Sandra D. LaneThis book uniquely examines, across cultures, the health benefits and detriments of religious beliefs, with important implications for individual wellbeing and human survival.Belief, Behavior, and Health takes the reader through journeys of the author’s research in the Middle East, Africa, and the urban United States, where she focused on the unequal health and survival of women globally and vulnerable groups in the United States. Almost every health problem, especially those experienced by the poor and disadvantaged, arose from or was made worse by the conditions in the environment in which people lived. Lane’s detailed studies of beliefs about Judaism, Christianity, and Islam led to the author’s deep observations on how religious belief and practice, as well as discrimination due to religious prejudice, can be a major influence on health, both positively and negatively. In this book, Lane shows how religious precepts and cultural influences on religious behavior function as social determinants of health. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of public health, anthropology, and sociology and those interested in the influence of religion on health outcomes.

Anticancer Spices: Dietary Input to Health
by Hardeep Singh TuliHumankind has used a variety of spices to flavor food for centuries. However, the chemistry and potential health benefits of these herbs have become clearer only rather recently. Numerous studies performed during the past decades have revealed several advantageous properties of bioactive constituents of various spices, including their anticancer effects. This edited collection summarizes diverse types of anticancer activities of compounds derived from some well-known spices, describing the anticancer mechanisms behind their action and highlighting molecular targets and cellular signaling pathways. It acquaints the reader with the potential anticancer activities of agents contained in laurel, oregano, thyme, rosemary, basil, dill, parsley, and several other common spices. These molecular entities could probably be considered as lead structures for further design of more efficient anticancer drugs in the future.

Wisdom Discourse in the Ancient World
by Sara De Martin Anna Lucia FurlanThis book moves beyond the debate on ‘wisdom literature’, ongoing in biblical studies, to demonstrate the productivity of ‘wisdom’ as a literary category. Featuring work by scholars of Egyptology, classics, biblical and Near Eastern studies, it offers fresh perspectives on what makes a text ‘wisdom’.This interdisciplinary volume widens the scope of the investigation into ‘wisdom literature’, chronologically, geographically, and methodologically. Readers are given insights into how the label ‘wisdom’ contributes to our understanding of diverse literary forms across time periods and cultural contexts. In the volume’s introduction, the editors consider ‘wisdom’ as a ‘discourse’, shifting the focus from the debate on whether ‘wisdom literature’ is a genre to the properties of the texts, namely exploring what makes a text ‘wisdom’. This offers a methodological backdrop against which the diverse approaches of the single authors productively coexist, showing how different methodologies can be integrated to reframe our conceptions of ancient literary genres. The chapters in this volume examine texts that are the products of different ancient cultures, with several of them bridging diverse cultural, social, and chronological contexts. By sampling how different methodologies interact both within individual interpretative efforts and in wider attempts to understand cross-cultural literary phenomena, this volume also contributes new perspectives to the scholarship on ancient literary genres.Wisdom Discourse in the Ancient World will interest both students and scholars of the ancient Near East, Egyptology, classical studies, biblical studies, and theology and religious studies, particularly those working on wisdom literature in antiquity. It will also appeal to readers with an interest in comparative approaches and genre studies more broadly.

Lifelong Learning for Capability (Lifelong Learning Book Series #34)
by Leonard Cairns Margaret MallochThe book offers a well-grounded vision of the significant theory and application of the concept of Capability as a lifecourse and lifespan development. Capability is argued to be a necessary 21st century process and outcome (PROUT) of all learning development and activities across formal and informal places. Capability has been defined as a way of understanding people and organisations through their holistic approach which moves beyond Competence to show how potential ability, self-efficacy, and values, as basic, intertwined elements lead to how Capable People and Capable Organisations offer flexibility and adaptability in action. It presents the case for Capable Four-Dimensional Learners who can thrive in various situations to solve unfamiliar problems and challenges. These learners have developed and can demonstrate Lifelong commitment to learning. In addition, four-dimensional learners need to experience a broad range of areas of Lifewide learning. Further, learners need to include learning of some aspects in depth, that is, Lifedeep learning. An understanding of the impact of technology, as a significant element in human learning beyond being operational tools, as Lifetech learning is vitally necessary. How this four-dimensionality relates to better sustainability awareness and application through personal and organisational Capability is outlined. This book emerged from many years of theory development and research with critical examination of the Capability Concept and its application as a Learning Model. It is written for students, teachers and administrators at all levels of Education, and everyone interested in human learning theory and application.
Charlotte Mew: Poetics, Bodies, Ecologies (Palgrave Studies in Nineteenth-Century Writing and Culture)
by Francesca Bratton Megan Girdwood Fraser RiddellThis collection of essays explores the life and works of the British poet and author of short stories Charlotte Mew (1869-1928). It represents the first volume dedicated solely to critical engagement with the full range of Mew’s poetry, fiction and essays. Mew moved within a remarkable range of literary and intellectual circles, from The Yellow Book in the 1890s to Bloomsbury’s Poetry Bookshop in the 1910s. As such, her work challenges traditional distinctions between literary periods and sits within the more expansive framework of the long nineteenth century and its legacies. Each chapter contextualises Mew’s oeuvre by examining her experiments with poetic and narrative genres in relation to her wider late Victorian and early modernist intellectual milieu. The volume draws together literary scholars working across the fields of poetry and poetics, decadence, modernism, ecocriticism and queer theory, while illustrating the particular stylistic and thematic complexities of Mew’s writing.

Innovation Empowerment in Construction 4.0 by the CDR-Approach: A new field of scientific Research for the digital breakthrough
by Bianca Christina Weber-LewerenzThis is a publication-based dissertation. The book examines the promotion of innovation in construction 4.0 through the CDR approach. This opens up a new scientific research field for digital breakthroughs. It raises awareness, explains and enables access to innovative technologies such as digitalization and AI in the construction industry and highlights the associated ethical aspects. This research comes to the conclusion that the human factor forms the basis for designing a socially sustainable digital transformation. The new findings show how innovative technology can support people more efficiently, productively, safely and meaningfully. It specifically addresses responsibility in the corporate environment and develops the key factors for success without neglecting the necessary legal, political, social and educational framework. The aim of this book is to improve and strengthen the transfer of knowledge between research and practice on the basis of scientific communication without language barriers. In this way, the book offers broader access for readers, not only for experts, researchers, designers, implementers, doers and visionaries. The book encourages an interdisciplinary, integrative and constructive dialogue in order to avoid disciplinary silo thinking. The diversity of potential and innovations in the industry is offset by the industry's enormous responsibility to use sustainable, human-controlled AI to achieve the 17 UN SDGs and climate goals and to increase its global competitiveness on the basis of a European quality seal. Surprise and aha effects are inevitable. The book invites key players, everyone involved and everyone who sets new standards, to help shape the digital change in the construction industry and become innovative. The book promotes a new culture of thinking and learning and strengthens the entrepreneurial will to innovate. Opening a new gap in scientific knowledge with this book ultimately leads to a new discipline. In addition, it expands the interdisciplinary dialogue around the globe to find new ways to assume corporate digital responsibility and adapt the framework conditions. The book provides new ideas for defining individual digital corporate strategies.
