br. Ci confrontiamo costantemente con decisioni che devono essere "tempestive". Il loro buon esito dipende più dal quando che dal cosa si fa. Tuttavia, prendiamo tali decisioni in modo azzardato, contando sull'intuito o su congetture. Questo è l'approccio più sbagliato. Come possiamo sfruttare le trame della giornata per costruire il nostro percorso ideale? Perché certe interruzioni migliorano drasticamente i risultati? Dopo una partenza mediocre, si può beneficiare di un nuovo inizio? Insomma, è possibile trasformare il tempo in un alleato anziché in un nemico? Daniel H. Pink raccoglie ricerche e dati all'avanguardia sulla gestione del tempo che mutua dalla psicologia, dalla biologia, dalle neuroscienze e dall'economia... E ci dimostra al di là di ogni dubbio che il tempismo, più che un'arte, è una scienza. Così non ci lasceremo più sfuggire l'appuntamento con il momento giusto!
Large grey octavo, gilt to front board and spine, viii, 200 pages, b&w illustrations, 25 cm.

The book provides personal account and experiences of the author who visited devasthanam. They should worke interest and devision among the reades and reverance of the deity.

Have you seen Him?” Or the seekers of truth who ask, “How much of faith one should repose in God to earn His Support for Human endeavors?” This book, perhaps has answers for such question.

Brand new book in excellent condition in every respect. What is love? Aside from being the title of many a popular love song, this is one of life s perennial questions. In What Love Is, philosopher Carrie Jenkins offers a bold new theory on the nature of romantic love that reconciles its humanistic and scientific components. Love can be a social construct (the idea of a perfect fairy tale romance) and a physical manifestation (those anxiety- inducing heart palpitations); we must recognize its complexities and decide for ourselves how to love. Motivated by her own polyamorous relationships, she examines the ways in which our parameters of love have recently changed-to be more accepting of homosexual, interracial, and non-monogamous relationships-and how they will continue to evolve in the future. Full of anecdotal, cultural, and scientific reflections on love, What Love Is is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand what it means to say I love you. Whether young or old, gay or straight, male or female, polyamorous or monogamous, this book will help each of us decide for ourselves how we choose to love.
Hardcover without jacket. Aside from a lightly bumped spine foot, item is in excellent condition externally and internally; pages are bright and sound and text remains clear throughout. TS Used
