The Beginning of Everything (9780062217141)

Robyn Schneider's The Beginning of Everything is a witty and heart-wrenching teen novel that will appeal to fans of books by John Green and Ned Vizzini, novels such as The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and classics like The Great Gatsby and The Catcher in the Rye. Varsity tennis captain Ezra Faulkner was supposed to be homecoming king, but that was before--before his girlfriend cheated on him, before a car accident shattered his leg, and before he fell in love with unpredictable new girl Cassidy Thorpe. As Kirkus said in a starred review, Schneider takes familiar stereotypes and infuses them with plenty of depth. Here are teens who could easily trade barbs and double entendres with the characters that fill John Green's novels. Funny, smart, and including everything from flash mobs to blanket forts to a poodle who just might be the reincarnation of Jay Gatsby, The Beginning of Everything is a refreshing contemporary twist on the classic coming-of-age novel--a heart-wrenching sto...

This Human: How to Be the Person Designing for Other People (9789063694609)



This Human is about the person who is doing the designing.

There are many great design books in existence that teach us about design process, tools and methods. With the increasing popularity of design thinking and human-centered design we've also seen more material discussing various aspects of the practice. One missing aspect, almost in an ironic twist, is what it takes to be the actual person who is doing the designing.

The name This Human is referring to that person. The person who needs to observe to gain insight, to makes sense of their observations in a way that isn't biased by their own world views. The person who needs to communicate in many different ways with many different intentions to communicate information which is often hard to access, difficult to grasp and just not that tangible. The person who is so passionate about having a positive impact they become exhausted one third of the way into their project. This book helps these people to learn more about themselves and how to think and be in their practice of design - to help them grasp all that is going on inside that then influences their creations.

The Cambridge World History: A World with Agriculture, 12,000 BCE-500 CE Volume 2 (9781108407649)

The development of agriculture has often been described as the most important change in all of human history. Volume 2 of the Cambridge World History series explores the origins and impact of agriculture and agricultural communities, and also discusses issues associated with pastoralism and hunter-fisher-gatherer economies. To capture the patterns of this key change across the globe, the volume uses an expanded timeframe from 12,000 BCE-500 CE, beginning with the Neolithic and continuing into later periods. Scholars from a range of disciplines, including archaeology, historical linguistics, biology, anthropology, and history, trace common developments in the more complex social structures and cultural forms that agriculture enabled, such as sedentary villages and more elaborate foodways, and then present a series of regional overviews accompanied by detailed case studies from many different parts of the world, including Southwest Asia, South Asia, China, Japan, Southeast Asia and the P...

Der Begriff des Politischen : Text von 1932 mit einem Vorwort und drei Corollarien (3428131169)

"Es soll [...] ein Rahmen für bestimmte rechtswissenschaftliche Fragen abgesteckt werden, um eine verwirrte Thematik zu ordnen und eine Topik ihrer Begriffe zu finden. Das ist eine Arbeit, die nicht mit zeitlosen Wesensbestimmungen anfangen kann, sondern zunächst einmal mit Kriterien ansetzt, um den Stoff und die Situation nicht aus den Augen zu verlieren. Hauptsächlich handelt es sich dabei um das Verhältnis und die gegenseitige Stellung der Begriffe Staatlich und Politisch auf der einen, Krieg und Feind auf der anderen Seite, um ihren Informationsgehalt für dieses Begriffsfeld zu erkennen." Carl Schmitt, aus dem Vorwort zur 2. Auflage Product details Format Paperback | 116 pages ...
