Skin - Sergio Del Molino - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Skin - Sergio Del Molino - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Skin is the border of our body and, as such, it is that through which we relate to others but also what separates us from them. Through skin, we speak: when we display it, when we tan it, when we tattoo it, or when we mute it by covering it with clothes. Skin exhibits social relationships, displays power and the effects of power, explains many things about who we are, how others perceive us and how we exist in the world. And when it gets sick, it turns us into monsters. In Skin, Sergio del Molino speaks of these monsters in history and literature, whose lives have been tormented by bad skin: Stalin secretly taking a bath in his dacha, Pablo Escobar getting up late and shutting himself in the shower, Cyndi Lauper performing a commercial for a medicine promising relief from skin disease, John Updike sunburned in the Caribbean, Nabokov writing to his wife from exile, ‘Everything would be fine, if it weren’t for the damned skin.’ As a psoriasis sufferer, Sergio del Molino includes himself in this gallery of monsters through whose stories he delves into the mysteries of skin. What is for some a badge of pride and for others a source of anguish and shame, skin speaks of us and for us when we don’t speak with words.

Reflections on Groups and Organizations - Manfred F. R. Kets De Vries - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Reflections on Groups and Organizations - Manfred F. R. Kets De Vries - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Reflections on Groups and Organizations is the third and final book in the On the Couch with Manfred Kets de Vries series. Broadening the Kets De Vries canvas, this book examines concepts of organizational health, performance, and change. Material ranges from studies of high performance teams – based on time the author spent with the pygmies of central Africa – to the study of organizational stars, to the use of coaching interventions to improve personal and organizational functioning. Kets de Vries looks at the interpersonal and group processes that determine how organizations work within specific contexts, including family firms. He studies dysfunctional leader–follower relationships, downsizing, and organizational transformation. Kets de Vries also introduces his concept of the "authentizotic" organization – a pleasant, healthy, well–functioning workplace.

The Life of the Author: Thomas De Quincey - Andrew Keanie - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Life of the Author: Thomas De Quincey - Andrew Keanie - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

An exploration of an essential but often overlooked figure in English literature In this innovative biography, Andrew Keanie explores one of the most enigmatic figures in English Romanticism. Known for his confessional prose and essays, De Quincey is more than the author of Confessions of an English Opium-Eater —he is the hidden thread connecting the great minds of the Romantic movement, including William Wordsworth, Dorothy Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Rather than a traditional cradle-to-grave account, The Life of the Author offers a thematic approach, focusing on key moments and works that defined De Quincey’s intellectual life. Through his personal struggles with addiction, loss, and identity, De Quincey forged a new style of life writing that intertwined personal experience with universal truths, influencing generations of writers to come. Throughout the book, Keanie invites readers to reconsider one of English literature’s most complex figures and the Romantic movement he helped define. Accessible to academic readers and literary enthusiasts alike, The Life of the Author: Thomas De Quincey is a must-read for anyone looking for a concise yet deeply insightful book that sheds new light on how De Quincey’s life shaped the enduring legacy of Romanticism.

Superpower Europe - Marc De Vos - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Superpower Europe - Marc De Vos - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The European Union is in a state of revolution. In response to new global realities from the climate crisis to the Covid-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine to the emerging cold war with China, the EU is transforming into a federal superpower in a new world order. In this timely intervention, Marc De Vos gets to the heart of the challenges facing the European Union as it undergoes this silent revolution. Charting its changing mission and identity from a European community into a geostrategic coalition of Eurasian countries; from a union of values into a union of power; and from a market project into a state project, he exposes what’s at stake for both the EU itself and its partners across the world. But retaining this new superpower status, he cautions, is not a given. The European Union’s de facto metamorphosis must mature into a democratic political structure or it risks a crisis of legitimacy that could ultimately threaten the stability of the European Union itself.

North to Aztlan - Arnoldo De Leon - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

North to Aztlan - Arnoldo De Leon - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Contemporary observers often quip that the American Southwest has become “Mexicanized,” but this view ignores the history of the region as well as the social reality. Mexican people and their culture have been continuously present in the territory for the past four hundred years, and Mexican Americans were actors in United States history long before the national media began to focus on them—even long before an international border existed between the United States and Mexico. North to Aztlán, an inclusive, readable, and affordable survey history, explores the Indian roots, culture, society, lifestyles, politics, and art of Mexican Americans and the contributions of the people to and their influence on American history and the mainstream culture. Though cognizant of changing interpretations that divide scholars, Drs. De León and Griswold del Castillo provide a holistic vision of the development of Mexican American society, one that attributes great importance to immigration (before and after 1900) and the ongoing influence of new arrivals on the evolving identity of Mexican Americans. Also showcased is the role of gender in shaping the cultural and political history of La Raza, as exemplified by the stories of outstanding Mexicana and Chicana leaders as well as those of largely unsung female heros, among them ranch and business owners and managers, labor leaders, community activists, and artists and writers. In short, readers will come away from this extensively revised and completely up-to-date second edition with a new understanding of the lives of a people who currently compose the largest minority in the nation. Completely revised, re-edited, and redesigned, featuring a great many new photographs and maps, North to Aztlán is certain to take its rightful place as the best college-level survey text of Americans of Mexican descent on the market today.

Reflections on Character and Leadership - Manfred F. R. Kets De Vries - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Reflections on Character and Leadership - Manfred F. R. Kets De Vries - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Reflections on Character and Leadership is the first of the three books in the Manfred kets de Vries on the Couch series. Here, Kets de Vries looks at entrepreneurship, the pathology of leadership, and the personality of the leader. The reader will visit the disturbed inner worlds of leaders like Alexander the Great, Shaka Zulu and Robert Maxwell, discover how to distinguish between a cold fish and a live volcano, and identify impostors, despots, organizational fools and global leaders. The book highlights the basic principles of the clinical paradigm—the process of putting organizations and the individuals who lead them on the psychoanalyst’s couch. It includes studies of personality archetypes and the effects they have on organizational life and culture—and the effects that organizations have on them. Referring frequently to key management concepts, Kets de Vries looks not only at what happens when things go wrong, but also at how to create the psychological and organizational space to make sure that things go right. About the series: The series offers an overview of Kets de Vries’s work spanning four decades, a period in which he has established himself as the leading figure in the clinical study of organizational leadership. The books in this series contain a representative selection of Kets de Vries’ writings about leadership from a wide variety of published sources and cover character and leadership in a global context, career development and leadership in organizations. The original essays were all written or published between 1976 and 2008. Updated where appropriate and revised by the author, they present a digest of the work of one of the most influential management thinkers of the present day.

Auschwitz Testimonies - Leonardo De Benedetti - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Auschwitz Testimonies - Leonardo De Benedetti - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In 1945, soon after the liberation of Auschwitz, Soviet authorities in control of the Kattowitz (Katowice) camp in Poland asked Primo Levi and his fellow captive Leonardo De Benedetti to compile a detailed report on the sanitary conditions they witnessed in Auschwitz. The result was an extraordinary testimony and one of the first accounts of the extermination camps ever written. Their report, published in a medical journal in 1946, marked the beginnings of Levi’s life-long work as writer, analyst and witness. In the subsequent four decades, Levi never ceased to recount his experiences in Auschwitz in a wide variety of texts, many of which are assembled together here for the first time, alongside other testimony from De Benedetti. From early research into the fate of their companions to the deposition written for Eichmann’s trial, Auschwitz Testimonies is a rich mosaic of documents, memories and critical reflections of great historic and human value. Underpinned by his characteristically clear language, rigorous method and deep psychological insight, this collection of testimonies, reports and analyses reaffirms Primo Levi’s position as one of the most important chroniclers of the Holocaust.

A Companion to Simone de Beauvoir - - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

A Companion to Simone de Beauvoir - - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The work of Simone de Beauvoir has endured and flowered in the last two decades, thanks primarily to the lasting influence of The Second Sex on the rise of academic discussions of gender, sexuality, and old age. Now, in this new Companion dedicated to her life and writings, an international assembly of prominent scholars, essayists, and leading interpreters reflect upon the range of Beauvoir’s contribution to philosophy as one of the great authors, thinkers, and public intellectuals of the twentieth century. The Companion examines Beauvoir’s rich intellectual life from a variety of angles—including literary, historical, and anthropological perspectives—and situates her in relation to her forbears and contemporaries in the philosophical canon. Essays in each of four thematic sections reveal the breadth and acuity of her insight, from the significance of The Second Sex and her work on the metaphysics of gender to her plentiful contributions in ethics and political philosophy. Later chapters trace the relationship between Beauvoir’s philosophical and literary work and open up her scholarship to global issues, questions of race, and the legacy of colonialism and sexism. The volume concludes by considering her impact on contemporary feminist thought writ large, and features pioneering work from a new generation of Beauvoir scholars. Ambitious and unprecedented in scope, A Companion to Simone de Beauvoir is an accessible and interdisciplinary resource for students, teachers, and researchers across the humanities and social sciences.

TTIP - Ferdi De Ville - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

TTIP - Ferdi De Ville - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) has stirred passions like no other trade negotiation in recent history. Its supporters maintain that TTIP will produce spectacular growth and job creation; claims that are wholeheartedly rejected by its critics, who regard TTIP as a direct assault on workers'' rights, health and safety standards and public services. In this incisive analysis, Gabriel Siles-Brugge and Ferdi de Ville scrutinize the claims made by TTIP''s cheerleaders and scaremongers to reveal a far more nuanced picture behind the headlines. TTIP will not provide an economic ''cure-all'', nor will it destroy the European welfare state in one fell swoop. Thanks to unprecedented levels of protest and debate around TTIP, however, neoliberal trade negotiations are well and truly back in the spotlight. In this respect, TTIP could well prove to be a ''game-changer'' - just not in the way imagined by its backers.
