Fearing Bravely Risking Love for Our Neighbors, Strangers, and Enemies【電子書籍】[ Catherine McNiel ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Jesus commands us to love our neighbors.</strong> So why are so many Christians taught to fear their neighbors? The American church is known as a people who are afraid, who have been nurtured through fear into hatred, and who have moved from hatred to violenceーor at least to neglect. This fear, too often lived out boldly in the name of Jesus, is a false religion.<br /> <strong>God instructs us to welcome strangers.</strong> We are not to withhold hospitality or help from anyone in need. So why do we fear strangers, especially those needing hospitality, afraid that their presence may threaten what we have?<br /> <strong>Jesus taught us to love our enemies.</strong> We are to pray for those who actively harm us. Instead, we create enemies in our minds, seeing anyone who thinks, believes, looks, or lives differently from us as dangerous, a threat to our way of living.<br /> The Christian community exists to declare and demonstrate God's love and to follow Jesus in practicing love over fear, even in unsafe times and places. It's time to reclaim our brave fear of God and risk transformative love for the sake of our neighbors, the strangers among us, and our enemies.<br /> We are people of the Kingdom. <em>Fearing Bravely</em> teaches us that we have nothing to fear. Instead, we can respond to our fear problem with a brave love that emerges from choosing to let our fear of God overcome our fear of everything else.<br /> Catherine McNiel writes with conviction, wisely guiding us to recognize our fear and, with God's help, not let it limit us to love courageously all who are among us.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,356円

Grasshoppers and Grassland Health Managing Grasshopper Outbreaks without Risking Environmental Disaster【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Acridids (grasshoppers and locusts) can range from being rare curiosities to abundant menaces. Some are threatened with extinction and become subjects of intensive conservation efforts, while others are devastating pests and become the objects of massive control programmes. Even within a species, there are times when the animal is so abundant that its crushed masses cause the wheels of trains to skid (the Rocky Mountain grasshopper, Melanoplus spretus Walsh in western North America in the 1860s and I 870s), while at other times the animal is alarmingly scarce (the Rocky Mountain grasshopper went extinct in the early 1900s). Why are there these extremes in one insect family, and even in a single species? The NATO workshop examined this paradox and its implications for Environmental Security, which must address both the elements of land use (agricultural production and pest management) and conservation of biodiversity. The reconciliation of these objectives clearly demands a critical assessment of current knowledge and policies, identification of future research, and close working relationships among scientists. Insects can present two clear faces, as well as the intervening gradation. These extremes require us to respond in two ways: conservation of scarce species and suppression of abundant (harmful) species. But perhaps most important, these opposite poles also provide the opportunity for an exchange of information and insight.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 18,231円

Risking Human Security Attachment and Public Life【電子書籍】[ Marci Green ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Most research in the field of attachment is on the experiences of attachment, separation and loss, and their developmental course and effects. This book widens our vision to the public domain, to consider the ways in which social institutions, culture and social policy may diminish our ability to make and maintain secure attachments. It argues that collective human security depends in part on the quality of attachments amongst individuals, a quality which, in turn, is conditioned by the structures of public life. The book invites its readers to reflect on those social processes that put our security at risk and to explore the prospects for enabling change.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,124円

Risking Proclamation, Respecting Difference Christian Faith, Imperialistic Discourse, and Abraham【電子書籍】[ Chris Boesel ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This is a work of Christian theology that Karl Barth might call an ad hoc or secondary apologetic. Relying on a paraphrase of Anselm--"faith seeking the ethical"--Boesel engages modern and postmodern theologians and philosophers--from Kierkegaard to Barth, Ruether, Hegel, Derrida, and Levinas--to analyze the imperialistic dynamics entailed in the church's theological interpretations of the Jewish neighbor. He demonstrates the dimensions of the problem as they are paradigmatically visible in the evangelical theological assumptions of Karl Barth. Turning to Ruether's exemplary remedy of the problem, Boesel illumines the ways her analysis and critique are funded by a specific cluster of modern assumptions that constitute what he calls "modern ethical desire." Employing a reading of Levinas and Derrida, Boesel shows that these assumptions constitute an imperialistic discourse of a different order, with its own specific hostility toward the Abrahamic tradition. In light of these postmodern critiques, Boesel returns to Barth to suggest that his evangelical theological assumptions, while indeed amounting to a form of Christian interpretive imperialism in relation to the Jewish neighbor, may nevertheless determine and delimit the knowledge and speech of Christian faith in such a way that resists more toxic forms of Christian imperialism. Broader implications of the argument follow: The ethical faces a radical limit, both in general and in relation to concrete faith. Therefore, no human remedy for the imperialistic discourse of Christian faith presents itself that does not entail an interpretive imperialism. To paraphrase Derrida: there is always an interpretive imperialism. Ethically, then, there is only discernment between different forms of interpretive imperialism. Theologically, an understanding of Christian faith as irreducible to the ethical may offer surprising though always risky ethical resourcement within this predicament of radically limited ethical possibility.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,908円

BILLIONAIRE'S ENDLESS LOVE Forbidden Passion, Family Betrayal, and a Love Worth Risking Everything【電子書籍】[ Lettie Swanson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**When a billionaire's son defies his ruthless father for the woman he loves, their forbidden romance ignites a corporate war that could destroy them bothーor set them free forever.**</p> <p>Isabelle Monroe thought she was making the ultimate sacrifice when she walked away from Damien Cross five years ago. Threatened by his powerful father Richardーa corporate titan who built an empire on manipulation and fearーshe believed ending their relationship would protect her family from complete ruin. The hefty payoff and ironclad nondisclosure agreement seemed like her only choice when faced with losing everything: her mother's cancer treatment, her father's struggling business, and any hope of a normal future.</p> <p>But Richard Cross destroyed her family anyway.</p> <p>Now, fate has thrust them back together. Isabelle is the lead consultant on Damien's most critical project, forcing them into close quarters where old wounds tear open and buried feelings resurface with devastating intensity. The chemistry between them hasn't dimmedーif anything, five years of longing has made their connection explosive, dangerous, and impossible to deny.</p> <p>**This time, Damien refuses to let his father win.**</p> <p>As their professional collaboration reignites a passionate romance neither can control, they uncover a shocking truth: Richard's corruption runs deeper than anyone imagined. For four decades, he's systematically obliterated competitors, coerced families into submission, and built his fortune on the shattered dreams of countless victims. Isabelle's family was just one casualty in a war that's claimed hundreds.</p> <p>Together with Victoria Ashfordーanother woman manipulated by Richard's schemesーthey begin building an explosive case that could topple one of America's most powerful businessmen. But Richard didn't become a billionaire by playing fair. When he discovers their investigation, he unleashes every weapon in his arsenal: criminal charges against Isabelle's father, threats against their careers, and manipulations so calculated they make his previous actions look merciful.</p> <p>**The choice becomes impossible: back down and lose each other forever, or fight back and risk destroying everything they've worked to rebuild.**</p> <p>What follows is a high-stakes battle between justice and power, where Congressional hearings expose generational corruption, where a son must choose between family loyalty and moral courage, and where two people who've already lost each other once must decide if their relationship is worth sacrificing their entire futures.</p> <p>Packed with intense emotional confrontations, steamy romantic tension, and shocking revelations about corporate greed, this contemporary romance delivers both heart-pounding passion and meaningful social commentary. Watch as Damien transforms from complicit heir to crusading reformer, as Isabelle evolves from victim to fierce advocate, and as their relationship becomes the foundation for dismantling systemic injustice.</p> <p>**Perfect for readers who crave:**</p> <p>- Emotionally complex protagonists overcoming trauma through partnership</p> <p>- High-heat romantic scenes balanced with substantive plot development</p> <p>- Morally gray family dynamics and redemption arcs</p> <p>- Corporate intrigue with real-world implications</p> <p>- Female characters who refuse to be silenced</p> <p>- Male leads who choose integrity over inheritance</p> <p>- Satisfying justice against seemingly untouchable villains</p> <p>- Found family and loyal friendships supporting the central couple</p> <p>- Dual timelines revealing how past heartbreak shapes present choices</p> <p>Experience a story where second-chance romance collides with corporate accountability, where personal healing enables systemic change, and where choosing authentic connection over comfortable lies becomes the ultimate act of rebellion. From Manhattan boardrooms to Congressional testimony, from heartbreak in Greenwich estates to healing in Tuscan vineyards, follow Damien and Isabelle as they prove that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is fight for what you thought you'd lost forever.</p> <p>**Their father tried to keep them apart. The system enabled his cruelty. But this time, they're rewriting the endingーtogether.**</p> <p>Will their relationship survive the public scrutiny, legal battles, and family betrayals that threaten to tear them apart? Can personal happiness coexist with the pursuit of justice? And when faced with the choice between comfortable silence and dangerous truth-telling, which will they choose?</p> <p>Discover why readers are calling this "the perfect blend of Scandal meets The Proposal with a dose of corporate thriller," and why this emotionally satisfying standalone romance will leave you believing in the transformative power of choosing courage over fear, transparency over secrecy, and enduring partnership over fleeting passion.</p> <p>**Trigger warnings:** Discussion of parental manipulation, corporate corruption, family member illness, emotional abuse within family systems, high-conflict confrontations.

Deconstructing Money Laundering Risk De-risking, the Risk-based Approach and Risk Communication【電子書籍】[ No?mi Tamb? Bearpark ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines the interpretation of the risk-based approach (RBA) and its application across the banking industry. It explores the ways conflicting risk interpretation and deconstruction of money laundering risk have unintended consequences across the banking industry. Furthermore, it offers a theoretical framework that can be adopted and implemented by risk practitioners to address money laundering (ML) risks.</p> <p>The interpretation and application of the RBA influences the way money laundering risk is perceived, presented, and managed, often resulting in misalignment among stakeholders. Moreover, AML practitioners interpret money laundering (ML) risk as an entity that can be contained, largely in ignorance of the fact that ML risk is self-referential.</p> <p>The book therefore addresses complex inter-system feedback phenomena that lead to de-risking and re-risking, and offers a new ML risk communication framework on this basis. It will be of value to researchers and also to stakeholders within financial institutions, financial intelligence units and regulators in the fight against money laundering.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 19,447円

Hungry Eating, Road-Tripping, and Risking It All with the Greatest Chef in the World【電子書籍】[ Jeff Gordinier ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A food critic chronicles four years spent traveling with Ren? Redzepi, the renowned chef of Noma, in search of the most tantalizing flavors the world has to offer.</strong></p> <p><strong>“If you want to understand modern restaurant culture, you need to read this book.”ーRuth Reichl, author of <em>Save Me the Plums</em></strong></p> <p><em>Hungry</em> is a book about not only the hunger for food, but for risk, for reinvention, for creative breakthroughs, and for connection. Feeling stuck in his work and home life, writer Jeff Gordinier happened into a fateful meeting with Danish chef Ren? Redzepi, whose restaurant, Noma, has been called the best in the world. A restless perfectionist, Redzepi was at the top of his game but was looking to tear it all down, to shutter his restaurant and set out for new places, flavors, and recipes.</p> <p>This is the story of the subsequent four years of globe-trotting culinary adventure, with Gordinier joining Redzepi as his Sancho Panza. In the jungle of the Yucat?n peninsula, Redzepi and his comrades go off-road in search of the perfect taco. In Sydney, they forage for sea rocket and sandpaper figs in suburban parks and on surf-lashed beaches. On a boat in the Arctic Circle, a lone fisherman guides them to what may or may not be his secret cache of the world’s finest sea urchins. And back in Copenhagen, the quiet canal-lined city where Redzepi started it all, he plans the resurrection of his restaurant on the unlikely site of a garbage-filled lot. Along the way, readers meet Redzepi’s merry band of friends and collaborators, including acclaimed chefs such as Danny Bowien, Kylie Kwong, Rosio S?nchez, David Chang, and Enrique Olvera.</p> <p><em>Hungry</em> is a memoir, a travelogue, a portrait of a chef, and a chronicle of the moment when daredevil cooking became the most exciting and groundbreaking form of artistry.</p> <p><strong>Praise for</strong> <em><strong>Hungry</strong></em></p> <p>“In <em>Hungry,</em> Gordinier invokes such playful and lush prose that the scents of mole, chiles and even lingonberry juice waft off the page.”<strong>ー<em>Time</em></strong></p> <p>“This wonderful book is really about the adventures of <em>two</em> men: a great chef and a great journalist. <em>Hungry</em> is a feast for the senses, filled with complex passion and joy, bursting with life. Not only did Jeff Gordinier make me want to jump on the next flight (to Mexico, Copenhagen, Sydney) in search of the perfect meal, but he also reminded me to stop and savor the ride.”<strong>ーDani Shapiro, author of <em>Inheritance</em></strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,088円

Risking Your Health Causes, Consequences, and Interventions to Prevent Risky Behaviors【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Behaviors that pose risks for an individual s health and that also represent important threats for public health, such as drug use, smoking, alcohol, unhealthy eating causing obesity, and unsafe sex, are highly prevalent in low income countries, even though they are traditionally associated with richer countries. Individual choices are an important part of the risky behaviors. Risking Your Health: Causes, Consequences, and Interventions to Prevent Risky Behaviors explore how those choices are formed and what are their consequences. Why do people engage in risky behaviors? Many different explanations have been proposed by psychology, sociology, economics or public health. One trait common to all these behaviors is that there is a disconnect a function of both delay and uncertainty - between the pleasure or satisfaction provided by them and their consequences. Another characteristic of risky behaviors is that they rarely occur in isolation. Peer-pressure, parental influences, networks and social norms often play an important role in initiating, continuing, or quitting those behaviors. Even if they might often be the first to suffer, the consequences of risky behaviors are also rarely limited to the individuals engaging in them. In certain cases, such as second-hand smoking or HIV transmission, the link is direct. In other cases, the link is less direct but not necessarily less real: the long term health consequences of many of these behaviors are costly to treat and could stretch households finances and worsen poverty. Finally, these risky behaviors have consequences for society as a whole since they often trigger a non-trivial amount of public health expenditures and lead to declines in aggregate productivity through premature death and morbidity. Changing behaviors is tricky -- public health interventions via legislation with strong enforcement mechanisms can be more effective than simple communication campaigns informing consumers about the risks associated with certain behaviors, since translating knowledge into concrete changes in behavior seems to be hard to achieve. Economic mechanisms such as taxes (especially on alcohol and tobacco products), subsidies (such as free condoms), and conditional/unconditional cash transfers are also used to reduce risky behaviors (for example in HIV prevention). Of great interest to policy makers, academics and practitioners, this book assesses the efficiency of those interventions designed to reduce the prevalence of behaviors that endanger health.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,652円

Risking Immeasurable Harm Immigration Restriction and U.S.-Mexican Diplomatic Relations, 1924?1932【電子書籍】[ Benjamin C. Montoya ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The debate over restricting the number of Mexican immigrants to the United States began early in the twentieth century, a time when U.S.-Mexican relations were still tenuous following the Mexican Revolution and when heated conflicts over mineral rights, primarily oil, were raging between the two nations. Though Mexico had economic reasons for curbing emigration, the racist tone of the quota debate taking place in the United States offended Mexicans’ national pride and played a large part in obstructing mutual support for immigration restriction between the United States and Mexico.</p> <p><em>Risking Immeasurable Harm</em> explains how the prospect of immigration restriction affects diplomatic relations by analyzing U.S. efforts to place a quota on immigration from Mexico during the late 1920s and early 1930s. The controversial quota raised important questions about how domestic immigration policy debates had international consequences, primarily how the racist justifications for immigration restriction threatened to undermine U.S. relations with Mexico.</p> <p>Benjamin C. Montoya follows the quota debate from its origin in 1924, spurred by the passage of the Immigration Act, to its conclusion in 1932. He examines congressional policy debate and the U.S. State Department’s steady opposition to the quota scheme. Despite the concerns of American diplomats, in 1930 the Senate passed the Harris Bill, which singled out Mexico among all other Latin American nations for immigration restriction. The lingering effects of the quota debates continued to strain diplomatic relations between the United States and Mexico beyond the Great Depression.</p> <p>Relevant to current debates about immigration and the role of restrictions in inter-American diplomacy, <em>Risking Immeasurable Harm</em> demonstrates the correlation of immigration restriction and diplomacy, the ways racism can affect diplomatic relations, and how domestic immigration policy can have international consequences.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,980円

The Women Who Saved Catholic England Risking All to Protect Tudor and Stuart Priests【電子書籍】[ Martyn R. Beardsley ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Reveals the untold story of Catholic women who risked everything to protect priests during England’s religious persecution.</strong></p> <p>Much has been written about the historical persecution of Catholics. Priests in particular became prime targets during the heightened tensions of the Armada and the Gunpowder Plot. But those whom they relied on for shelter have received little attention ? until now. The underground network of lay supporters, the Catholic Resistance, mostly comprised courageous women of the great (and sometimes not so great) families of England, and their houses riddled with priest holes.</p> <p>These women fought a cat-and-mouse game with spymasters like Walsingham and Cecil and their spider’s web of clandestine informants, knowing that one slip might lead to arrest, torture and execution.</p> <p>The indomitable Anne Vaux and her sister Eleanor provide the focus of this story but there were others, including their niece Frances, who as an 11-year-old boldly confronted armed raiders in search of priests; and Margaret Clitherow of York, arrested during a similar search and ultimately pressed to death.</p> <p>To escape the clutches of Elizabeth’s brutal torturer Richard Topcliffe and others like him, men like Father John Gerard, whose ‘zipwire’ escape from the Tower of London is the stuff of Tom Cruise films, and genius priest-hole creator ‘Little John’, turned to these Sisters of Mercy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,761円

Discovery in the Morgue How Curiosity and Risking One's Life Led to Discovering Life's Calling【電子書籍】[ Philip Johnston ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Social disruption was a harsh reality in America in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Every citizen in Memphis, Tennessee, felt the impact of the assassination of Martin Luther King, national political unrest, America's failure in the Vietnam War, civil disobedience, and the emerging horror of organized crime and the drug culture. Memphis's citizens largely believed segregation was a preferred social structure, with African Americans remaining subservient. In this blend of historical fiction, memoir, and social reflection, the author reveals the struggles of young Hank Henderson. Hank is a newly minted health professional who realizes the disparities created by racial segregation and long-term mistrust and oppression of African Americans. Hank's thoughts conflict, and he becomes progressively reckless. Hank's journey evolves with a background of personal and cultural experiences that are harsh teachings. Hank's reaction to social disparities is inflaming, showing how the healthcare industry functions as a dichotomy of service to Whites versus African Americans. Healthcare was not offered to African Americans as a right but as a privilege. Realizing how contrary this is to his upbringing, Hank risks his safety and professional career to make a difference. He joins forces with a friend to solve a mystery involving members of a drug ring. As they come closer to revealing the ring's actions, Hank's restlessness and curiosity get him over his head in trouble. He faces not only years in prison but is now a hunted man. His na?ve decisions and what he now knows have resulted in a troublesome situation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 661円

Fools of Fortune; or, Gambling and Gamblers Risking All: A Tale of Deceit, Greed, and Manipulation in 19th Century America【電子書籍】[ John Philip Quinn ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Fools of Fortune; or, Gambling and Gamblers," John Philip Quinn delves into the complex psychology and societal implications of gambling during the early 20th century. Blending narrative essays with keen observations, Quinn utilizes a mix of anecdotal evidence and statistical analysis to explore the motivations behind gambling behavior and its consequences. The prose is both eloquent and accessible, reflecting the literary styles of his contemporaries while maintaining a unique voice that addresses the moral ambiguities and ethical dilemmas faced by gamblers and society alike. As Quinn engages with themes of chance, fortune, and human folly, he situates his work within the broader discourse on vice and societal norms of the time. John Philip Quinn, a noted sociologist and cultural commentator, was influenced by the tumultuous social changes of his era, including the rise of industrialization and urbanization. His academic background in social sciences provided him with a nuanced understanding of behavioral economics, shaping the analytical lens through which he examines gambling. Quinn'??s personal observations of gamblers in various contexts enriched his portrayal, crafting a comprehensive narrative about the allure and danger of gambling in modern life. "Fools of Fortune" is a thought-provoking exploration that challenges readers to reflect on their own relationship with risk and reward. I recommend this book to those interested in sociology, psychology, and the cultural history of gambling, as it offers penetrating insights into a universal human experience, making it a valuable addition to the library of anyone curious about the interplay between chance and choice.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Risking Intimacy and Creative Transformation in Psychoanalysis【電子書籍】[ Lauren Levine ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In this compelling book, Lauren Levine explores the transformative power of stories and storytelling in psychoanalysis to heal psychic wounds and create shared symbolic meaning and coherence out of ungrieved loss and trauma.</p> <p>Through evocative clinical stories, Levine considers the impact of trauma and creativity on the challenge of creating one’s own story, resonant with personal authenticity and a shared sense of culture and history. Levine sees creativity as an essential aspect of aliveness, and as transformative, emergent in the clinical process. She utilizes film, dance, poetry, literature, and dreams as creative frames to explore diverse aspects of psychoanalytic process. As a psychoanalyst and writer, Levine is interested in the stories we tell, individually and collectively, as well as what gets disavowed and dissociated by experiences of relational, intergenerational, and sociopolitical trauma. She is concerned too with whose stories get told and whose get erased, silenced, and marginalized. This crucial question, what gets left out of the narrative, and the potential for an intimate psychoanalytic process to help patients reclaim what has been lost, is at the heart of this volume.</p> <p>Attentive to the work of helping patients reclaim their memory and creative agency, his book will prove invaluable for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists in practice and in training.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,134円

A Practical Way to Get Rich . . . and Die Trying A Memoir About Risking It All【電子書籍】[ John Roa ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>"A scathingly honest memoir of entrepreneurship's dark reality... I would advise every entrepreneur--or anyone who dreams of becoming one--to read this book."</strong><br /> <strong>--Eric Schurenberg - CEO, Fast Company and Inc.</strong></p> <p><strong>A young tech entrepreneur's memoir of building his hugely successful company and the mental and physical price he paid for it</strong></p> <p>At the age of twenty-six, John Roa was an aspiring but struggling entrepreneur. He was broke, racking up debt, and ready to give up on his dream of being self-made. In a final effort, he founded the design firm ?KTA, which quickly became one of the fastest growing startups in America, and just five years later, he sold it for a fortune to Salesforce, the largest company in San Francisco.</p> <p>This is his account of rising from a self-described below-average student to becoming a poster boy for the successful young entrepreneur, while nearly destroying himself in the process. His journey is an absurd, twisting, and often comical story of talent, luck, rapidly changing technology, larger-than-life personalities, sex, gambling, and excessive alcohol and drug consumptionーwhich ultimately took their toll, resulting in a spectacular burnout that he almost didn’t survive. As he healed in the aftermath, he began to question the ethos that had brought him to that dark place, and over time, came to realize how common these debilitating issues are in entrepreneurship, even if they are rarely discussed openly.</p> <p>Rather than another glamorous rags-to-riches saga, <em>A Practical Way to Get Rich . . . and Die Trying</em> is a cautionary and deeply honest memoir about the price of success for ambitious young people, who are so often unprepared for the adversity, mental health issues, and abuse that can come along with “making it.” It also serves as the foundation for a campaign of honesty and vulnerability, in an industry that currently lacks both.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,334円

Risking Wreckage A Memoir of Adventuring Out and Settling In【電子書籍】[ Jan Hogle ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Some adventures are chosen, and some are not. Ironically, Jan’s worst adventure happened when a pickup truck sent her flying to land in the road while walking to work in Wisconsin in 2016. Risking Wreckage is a personal story of venturing out into the world to find a way home. It begins with a brief description of the hit-by-truck experience. That incident jolted Jan during recovery into a final decision about where to end her nomadic existence following retirement.</p> <p>Her life of moving around began in the 1950s as her family left Ohio for New York after her mother’s hospitalization and electroconvulsive therapy. Her parents’ instabilities and her mother’s mental illness prompted Jan to escape her Florida-based household of origin at 18, seeking adventures in a quest for a satisfying place to settle permanently. Following her intuition worked best as a strategy for eventually finding a “last home”. Escaping her family of origin for college, she continued to seek out new experiences in different locations including at the University of Florida, Jackson Hole, University of Connecticut, California, New Mexico, Niger, Kenya, Virginia, and Wisconsin. A quick summary is: nine states, two foreign countries, 19 cities, and more than 30 dwellings.</p> <p>Along the way, she climbed mountains on two continents, put her anthropology degrees to use, and survived the hit-by-truck calamity. Jan’s journals, letters, and memories reflect adventures on winter mountains, ocean wreck-diving, the Sahara Desert, and hot-air balloons, plus interactions with charging rhinos, Rwandan gorillas, dehydrated nomads, gun-toting African teenagers, hurricanes, and the chaos of marriage and motherhood. Avoiding wreckage with luck and some skill, and hiking through life’s thrills and challenges, she and her husband eventually settled in a forest.</p> <p>Writing this memoir helped Jan to understand and explore life's needs and influences that led her to do things that no one in her extended or ancestral family had done. She wanted a life different from the life she’d been raised in. She was good at going to school, so she kept going. Along the way, she found she had skills in research and writing, interviewing, and analyzing information. She collected degrees because she was able to get funding. Then she got jobs, studied other languages, and experienced other cultures.</p> <p>There were many locations where Jan could have dug in for the duration, built a life, and made commitments to geography and to a social environment, but for some reasons, which emerge in the memoir, she kept the journey going. She wants her descendants to understand who their ancestor was before, during, and after the family of four lived together. Risking Wreckage is about searching for a home by journeying through risky adventures.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 496円

All Sorts of Lives Katherine Mansfield and the art of risking everything【電子書籍】[ Claire Harman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**** The <em>Sunday Times</em> Best Literary Book of 2023**<br /> ** A Waterstones Best Book of 2023**</p> <p>'<em>All Sorts of Lives</em> is a beautiful, fastidiously researched and fascinating exploration of Mansfield's life and work' A.L. KENNEDY**</p> <p>Restless outsider, masher-up of form and convention, Katherine Mansfield’s career was short but dazzling. She was the only writer Virginia Woolf admitted being jealous of, yet by the 1950s was so undervalued that Elizabeth Bowen was moved to ask, 'Where is she ? our missing contemporary?'</p> <p>In this inventive and intimate study, Claire Harman takes a fresh look at Mansfield’s life and achievements, through the form she did so much to revolutionise: the short story. Exploring ten pivotal works, we watch how Mansfield’s desire to grow as a writer pushed her art into unknown territory, and how illness sharpened her extraordinary vitality: ‘Would you not like to try all sorts of lives ? one is so very small.’</p> <p>**‘What a gift to the biographer, this life of adventure and sickness and sex and celebrity… Brilliant’ <em>Sunday Times</em></p> <p>‘A searching, incisive and compulsive book.

Sino-EU Economic Relations Balancing De-risking Strategy with Global Cooperation and Competition【電子書籍】[ Ren? W.H. van der Linden ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This Palgrave Pivot book analyses the current state of economic and financial relations between China and the European Union. It illustrates the ‘de-risking’ strategy that informs much of financial policy between China and the EU and argues that this differs from the policy of ‘decoupling’ that characterizes the US approach towards China. Exploring how the EU positions itself in the context of a trade and tech race between the US and China, the book sketches out a range of geopolitical challenges for Europe as it navigates current and future scenarios in global economic cooperation and competition. It discusses the concept of ‘strategic autonomy’ for the EU and explores barriers to achieving this as well as options for re-shaping relations with China. The book provides an excellent overview for researchers and policy-makers of Sino-EU economic relations today and sets them firmly in the contexts of the post-pandemic world with new global value chains, rapid technological development, and evolving environmental challenges.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,861円
