Abstract

Long description: In Unternehmen und Organisationen werden täglich tausende Entscheidungen getroffen. Viele Managerinnen und Manager versuchen sich und ihre Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter von der Unsicherheit der Entscheidungsfindung durch umfangreiche Regelsets zu befreien". Doch heraus kommen häufig Regelsets, die Arbeit eher belasten, als befähigen. Simple Rules sind Entscheidungsverfahren, die besonders in Situationen der Unsicherheit helfen, Entscheidungen zu treffen, ohne in eine Überregulierung zu verfallen. Das Buch erläutert anhand von Fallbeispielen was Simple Rules eigentlich sind, wie und wann sie einsetzbar und warum sie überbordenden Regelwerken überlegen sind. Darüber hinaus werden Simple Rules im Managementkontext und agile Projektmanagementtools nach dem Prinzip der Simple Rules beleuchtet.  Biographical note: Marcel F. Volland Dr. Marcel F.

Zu seinen Kunden gehören namhafte Vertreter der deutschen und europäischen Industrie. Promoviert wurde er in Unternehmensführung an der Universität Hamburg (Lehrstuhl Prof. Dr. Jetta Frost). Einer seiner Hauptanliegen in seinen Publikationen ist es, wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse für Praktikerinnen und Praktiker der Wirtschaft greifbar und anwendbar zu machen.

Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive overview and critical evaluation of the emerging and exciting topic of interoception - the perception of the body's internal state. Interest in the topic has been driven by the observation that interoception appears to affect fundamental psychological processes and numerous physical and mental health conditions. In this book, the major authorities in the field present a discussion of the history of interoception, the neural basis of interoception, and the measurement and models of interoception conceptualization. This is followed by a consideration of the many domains that interoception appears to impact (including social and cognitive abilities and mental and physical health conditions) and differences across demographic groups. Interoception: A Comprehensive Guide also explores real world applications, including training for interoception, the modulation of interoception and the impact of such interventions, and future research directions.

Abstract

Stop for a moment and wonder: what's happening in your brain right now--as you read this paragraph? How much do you know about the innumerable and amazing connections that your mind is making as you, in a flash, make sense of this request? Why does it matter? The Reading Mind is a brilliant, beautifully crafted, and accessible exploration of arguably life's most important skill: reading. Daniel T. Willingham, the bestselling author of Why Don't Students Like School?, offers a perspective that is rooted in contemporary cognitive research. He deftly describes the incredibly complex and nearly instantaneous series of events that occur from the moment a child sees a single letter to the time they finish reading. The Reading Mind explains the fascinating journey from seeing letters, then words, sentences, and so on, with the author highlighting each step along the way. This resource covers every aspect of reading, starting with two fundamental processes: reading by sight and reading by sound. It also addresses reading comprehension at all levels, from reading for understanding at early levels to inferring deeper meaning from texts and novels in high school. The author also considers the undeniable connection between reading and writing, as well as the important role of motivation as it relates to reading. Finally, as a cutting-edge researcher, Willingham tackles the intersection of our rapidly changing technology and its effects on learning to read and reading. Every teacher, reading specialist, literacy coach, and school administrator will find this book invaluable. Understanding the fascinating science behind the magic of reading is essential for every educator. Indeed, every "reader" will be captivated by the dynamic but invisible workings of their own minds. -- Provided by publisher.

Abstract

The National Mind argues that understanding the power of nationalism requires probing into its cognitive and emotional influence on our everyday perceptions, feelings, beliefs, and behavior. Focusing particularly on the impact of canonical national narratives on thinking and feeling norms in society, it develops an interdisciplinary cognitive approach to the question of how nationalism shapes our minds, and eventually, our world. It derives insights from longstanding philosophical and scholarly debates on the social nature of knowledge and feeling as well as recent cognitive research on emotions and the perception of reality. Grounding its theoretical investigation in empirical observations about a prominent non-Western case, namely, contemporary Turkey, The National Mind demonstrates how nationalist narratives and conceptions dominate our social and political common sense, at both societal and global levels. It offers a comprehensive and original interpretation of how the 'national mind' operates in everyday experiences. This groundbreaking book will appeal to students and scholars of psychology, philosophy, politics, history, sociology, and nationalism studies.
