Pearlman, Karen

There are many books on the technical aspects of film and video editing. Much rarer are books on how editors think and make creative decisions. Filled with timeless principles and thought-provoking examples from a variety of international films, the second edition of Karen Pearlman’s Cutting Rhythms offers an in-depth study of the film editor’s rhythmic creativity and intuition, the processes and tools editors use to shape rhythms, and how rhythm works to engage audiences in film. While respecting the importance of intuitive flow in the cutting room, this book offers processes for understanding what editing intuition is and how to develop it.

Social research methods in dementis studies

Traditionally, the most preferred social research methods in dementia studies have been interviews, focus groups and non-participant observations. Most of these methods have been used for a long time by researchers in other social research fields, but their application to the field of dementia studies is a relatively new phenomenon.A ground-breaking book, Social Research Methods in Dementia Studies shows researchers how to adapt their methods of data collection to address the individual needs of someone who is living with dementia. With an editorial team that includes Ann Johnson, a trained nurse and person living with dementia, this enlightening volume mainly draws its contents from two interdisciplinary social research teams in dementia, namely the Center for Dementia Research [CEDER] at Linköping University in Norrköping, Sweden and the Dementia and Ageing Research Team [DART] at The University of Manchester in Manchester, UK. Case examples are shared in each of the main chapters to help ground the social research method(s) in a real-life context and provide direction as to how learning can be applied to other settings. Chapters also contain key references and recommended reading.This volume will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, interested in fields such as: Research Methods, Qualitative Methods and Dementia Studies.

Smith, Zadie

Deeply personal and powerfully moving, a short and timely series of essays on the experience of lockdown, by one of the most clear-sighted and essential writers of our time.From the critically acclaimed author of Feel Free, Swing Time, White Teeth and many more.'There will be many books written about the year 2020: historical, analytic, political and comprehensive accounts. This is not any of those - the year isn't half-way done. What I've tried to do is organize some of the feelings and thoughts that events, so far, have provoked in me, in those scraps of time the year itself has allowed. These are above all personal essays: small by definition, short by necessity.'Crafted with the sharp intelligence, wit and style that have won Zadie Smith millions of fans, and suffused with a profound intimacy and tenderness in response to these unprecedented times, Intimations is a vital work of art, a gesture of connection and an act of love - an essential book in extraordinary times.

Pavese, Cesare

Storia semplice e lirica insieme, costruita come un continuo viavai tra il piano del passato e quello del presente, La luna e i falò recupera i temi civili della guerra partigiana, la cospirazione antifascista, la lotta di Liberazione, e li lega a problematiche private - l'amicizia, la sensualità, la morte -, in un intreccio drammatico che conferma la totale inappartenenza dell'individuo rispetto al mondo e il suo triste destino di solitudine.

Moonshot Thinking

Bofarull, Iván

Book of the Year Award 2021 by SDLI Innovation Agency. Absolutely indispensable for all global leaders. Cecilia MoSze Tham, award-winning futurist ''Strategic thinking to create the future of your company.'' Paul Almeida, Georgetown University ''If disruption is of interest to you, you should read Bofarull.'' Soumitra Dutta, University of Oxford With recent developments in the technology market, it may seem like the age of the Silicon Valley moonshot is over for now. Disruption and corporate resilience have become the new normal. In this book, originally written at the beginning of the pandemic, Ivan Bofarull, Chief Innovation Officer at Esade, the global business school, had the foresight to anticipate a period of retrenchment of grand corporate moonshots. Instead, he focused his research on how to embed moonshot thinking as a mindset in each company, putting this at the core of an operating system for decision making and business transformation. After reading this book, you will be better at: Adopting an entrepreneurial mindset with moonshot thinking, a mental model that aims for 10x improvements that force you to rethink your foundations from the ground up. Becoming a disruption pro: understanding its actual meaning, which signals it emits, how to anticipate it, and how to make the most of it. Being systematic as an innovator, by designing an operating system for continuous transformation. Praise for this book... ''Moonshot Thinking provides real models to turn challenges into opportunities.'' Natalia Olson, former SME advisor to President Obama ''A new habit that you can systematically apply in your company.'' Pablo Rodriguez, Director of Google's office of the CTO ''An indispensable and inspiring synthesis.'' Xavier Marcet, Drucker Society ''Bofarull reminds us of the balance between 10x and 10% incremental improvements. An uncommon way of thinking and wisdom.'' Henry Chesbrough, UC Berkeley ''Moonshot thinking is now more important than ever, particularly considering the many systemic challenges the world is facing.'' Javier Solana, Esade, and Patrick Schneider-Sikorsky, venture capitalist

Gramont, Nina de

In 1925, Miss Nan O’Dea infiltrated the wealthy, rarefied world of author Agatha Christie and her husband, Archie. In every way, she became a part of their life––first, both Christies. Then, just Archie. Soon, Nan became Archie’s mistress, luring him away from his devoted wife, desperate to marry him. Nan’s plot didn’t begin the day she met Archie and Agatha. It began decades before, in Ireland, when Nan was a young girl. She and the man she loved were a star-crossed couple who were destined to be together––until the Great War, a pandemic, and shameful secrets tore them apart. Then acts of unspeakable cruelty kept them separated. What drives someone to murder? What will someone do in the name of love? What kind of crime can someone never forgive? Nina de Gramont’s brilliant, unforgettable novel explores these questions and more.
