Everything Bad Is Good for You: How Today's Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: From the author of the New York Times bestseller Mind Wide Open comes a groundbreaking assessment of popular culture as it's never been considered before: through the lens of intelligence. The $10 billion video gaming industry is now the second-largest segment of the entertainment industry in the United States, outstripping film and far surpassing books. Reality television shows featuring silicone-stuffed CEO wannabes and bug-eating adrenaline junkies dominate the ratings. But prominent social and cultural critic Steven Johnson argues that our popular culture has never been smarter. Drawing from fields as diverse as neuroscience, economics, and literary theory, Johnson argues that the junk culture we're so eager to dismiss is in fact making us more intelligent. A video game will never be a book, Johnson acknowledges, nor should it aspire to be-and, in fact, video games, from Tetris to The Sims to Grand Theft Auto, have been shown to raise IQ scores and develop cognitive abilities that can't be learned from books. Likewise, successful television, when examined closely and taken seriously, reveals surprising narrative sophistication and intellectual demands. Startling, provocative, and endlessly engaging, Everything Bad Is Good for You is a hopeful and spirited account of contemporary culture. Elegantly and convincingly, Johnson demonstrates that our culture is not declining but changing-in exciting and stimulating ways we'd do well to understand. You will never regard the glow of the video game or television screen the same way again.

A Troublemaker's Handbook 2: How to Fight Back Where You Work--and Win!: - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: WHY D O YOU CALL IT a troublemaker s handbook?" a few readers wanted to know. "It's management that makes trouble--workers are just trying to do their jobs. When we stand up for ourselves, they call us troublemak ers (and a lot of other things, too)." We've found that most activists get a kick out of tak ing management's put-down and wearing the moniker with pride. Both our 1991 Troublemaker s Handbook and our "Troublemakers Union" t-shirts are our bestsellers. But if you'd like a disclaimer, here it is: By "trouble maker" we mean an activist who dares to defend her or his rights and those of fellow workers. That often means making waves and causing some discomfort among man agerial types. In our view, it's management that causes trouble in the workplace and employers who cause trou ble in society, when they speed us up, treat us disrespect fully, and squeeze us for every last drop of profit. So this book is an organizing manual for workers who want justice from their employers and control over their lives at work and beyond. Our Method Instead of presenting a book full of checklists-"this is how you do it"-we're letting the experts tell their own stories: "This is how we did it. See what you can learn from our story." We've found that people generally remember a story about "how we locked out the boss" better than a checklist on "how to lock out the boss." Action Questions However, at the end of each chapter, we do list "Action Questions." These are to get you started thinking about how you could implement similar tactics at your job, and are best tackled in a small group
