Paperback. Etat : Good. A fundamental assumption in most of the literature on leadership is that a few will need to control the many. This assumption leads to a search for power but with an either/or mindset: if I have power, then others cannot have as much as me or they will be a threat. Organizations, when anxious, experience limited ability to learn and change. There is an alternative, paradoxical way to understand leadership. A leader is most effective not by controlling others but by defining himself/herself. It is critical for leaders to face their fears, challenge their assumptions and thus be able to change their self-perception. A Leadership Paradox outlines such an alternative view of leadership and provides a model for achieving differentiated leadership. …

Paperback. Etat : Good. The United States is in a time of profound change and division. Americans are desperate for leaders with integrity to help them thrive during this troubling period, but their search has increasingly come up empty.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Let's not be too hard on ourselves and others when we do not get it right away. The truth takes time to get past our defenses: our hard heads and hard hearts. God knows our potential. The Peter Paradox: Maturing through Mistakes examines the life of the apostle Peter. Author Larry W. Ellis studies Peter's ministry, beginning with his denial of Jesus as explained in the book of Mark. Through a detailed discussion, Ellis studies Peter's mistakes and teaches how we can learn from his example. Ellis's discussion of Peter's pardon and restoration by Jesus demonstrates how Peter's power source is discovered. Mistakes are part of everyone's life. We can waste the pain or grow to maturity-it's our choice. With God's help, that choice becomes much easier to make. In our success-driven culture, we praise winners. But the truth is that we mature more through our mistakes than our successes. Most importantly, we learn firsthand that God can turn mistakes into miracles. …

Hardback. Etat : Good. There are two remarkable phenomena that are unfolding almost simultaneously. The first is the emergence of a data-first world, where data has become a central driving force, shaping industries and fueling innovation. The second is the dawn of the AI age, propelled by the advent of Generative AI, that has created the possibility to leverage the data of the world for the first time. The convergence of these two, with data as the common denominator, holds immense promise and the opportunities are boundless.…

To many outsiders, mathematicians appear to think like computers, grimly grinding away with a strict formal logic and moving methodically - even algorithmically - from one black-and-white deduction to another. This title reveals that mathematics is a creative activity and not just a body of formalized rules and results.…

The fascinating story of an ancient riddle and what it reveals about the nature of time and space Three millennia ago, the Greek philosopher Zeno constructed a series of logical paradoxes to prove that motion is impossible. Today, these paradoxes remain on the cutting edge of our investigations into the fabric of space and time. Zeno's Paradox uses the motion paradox as a jumping-off point for an exploration of the twenty-five-hundred-year quest to uncover the true nature of the universe. From Galileo to Einstein to Stephen Hawking, some of the greatest minds in history have tackled the problem and made spectacular breakthroughs, but through it all, the paradox of motion remains.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In The Progress Paradox, Gregg Easterbrook draws upon three decades of wide-ranging research and thinking to make the persuasive assertion that almost all aspects of Western life have vastly improved in the past century-and yet today, most men and women feel less happy than in previous generations. Detailing the emerging science of positive psychology, which seeks to understand what causes a person's sense of well-being, Easterbrook offers an alternative to our culture of crisis and complaint. He makes a compelling case that optimism, gratitude, and acts of forgiveness not only make modern life more fulfilling but are actually in our self-interest. An affirming and constructive way of seeing life anew, The Progress Paradox will change the way you think about your place in the world-and about our collective ability to make it better.…
