Clear thinking

Parrish, Shane

Clear Thinking gives you the tools to recognize the moments that have the potential to transform your trajectory, and reshape how you navigate the critical space between stimulus and response. As Parrish shows, we may imagine we are the protagonists in the story of our lives. But the sad truth is, most of us run on autopilot. Our behavioral defaults, groomed by biology, evolution, and culture, are primed to run the show for us if we don’t intervene. At our worst, we react to events without reasoning, not even realizing that we’ve missed an opportunity to think at all. At our best, we recognize these moments for what they are, and apply the full capacity of our reasoning and rationality to them.

Streisand, Barbra

Barbra Streisand is by any account a living legend, a woman who in a career spanning six decades has excelled in every area of entertainment. She is among the handful of EGOT winners (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) and has one of the greatest and most recognisable voices in popular music. She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl (musical and film) to the long string of successes in every medium in the years that followed. She recounts her early struggles to become an actress, eventually turning to singing to earn a living, the recording of some of her acclaimed albums, the years of effort involved in making Yentl, her direction of The Prince of Tides, her friendships with figures ranging from Marlon Brando to Madeleine Albright, her political advocacy, and the fulfillment she's found in her marriage to James Brolin. No entertainer's memoir has been more anticipated than Barbra Streisand's, and this engrossing book will be eagerly welcomed by her millions of fans. ST Bestseller, November 2024.

En 1983, el diseñador japonés Issey Miyake declaró a The New Yorker que aspiraba a ''avanzar y romper el molde''. Con las líneas vanguardistas que crearía luego no solo rompió moldes, sino que replanteó por completo la moda. Con una combinación única de poesía y sentido práctico, sus creaciones desdibujan los límites entre tradición, tecnología moderna y función cotidiana.Esta historia completa de los diseños de Miyake desde 1960 hasta 2022 ofrece una perspectiva única de la visión de futuro y la audacia del diseñador.

Heller, Steven

Stefan Sagmeister’s newest project encourages long-term thinking and reminds us that many things in the world are improvingInitially conceived in 2020 as the world entered pandemic lockdown, Stefan Sagmeister has created a book that looks at the state of the world today, illuminating, through collected data, how far we’ve come, and encouraging us to think about where we can go from here.

The book includes a foreword from psychologist and leading authority on language and the mind, Steven Pinker, a featured essay by graphic designer and historian Steven Heller, and a conversation between Sagmeister and Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator and artistic director of Serpentine Galleries in London and will appeal to all visually minded readers, providing a positive reaction to the tumultuous news cycle of recent years. Published in softcover with flaps Now is Better is contained within a die-cut slipcase and accompanied by a lenticular print designed by Sagmeister.

Noise

kahneman, Daniel

Imagine that two doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients—or that two judges in the same courthouse give markedly different sentences to people who have committed the same crime. Suppose that different interviewers at the same firm make different decisions about indistinguishable job applicants—or that when a company is handling customer complaints, the resolution depends on who happens to answer the phone. Now imagine that the same doctor, the same judge, the same interviewer, or the same customer service agent makes different decisions depending on whether it is morning or afternoon, or Monday rather than Wednesday. These are examples of variability in judgments that should be identical. In Noise , Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass R. Sunstein show the detrimental effects of noise in many fields, including medicine, law, economic forecasting, forensic science, bail, child protection, strategy, performance reviews, and personnel selection. Wherever there is judgment, there is noise. Yet, most of the time, individuals and organizations alike are unaware of it. They neglect noise. With a few simple remedies, people can reduce both noise and bias, and so make far better decisions. Packed with original ideas, and offering the same kinds of research-based insights that made Thinking, Fast and Slow and Nudge groundbreaking New York Times bestsellers, Noise explains how and why humans are so susceptible to noise in judgment—and what we can do about it.

Saraceno, Tomás

Born in Argentina and based in Berlin, Tomás Saraceno creates projects in dialogue with forms of life and life-forming, rethinking dominant threads of knowledge in the “Capitalocene” era and recognising diverse modes of being. This book, published to accompany a solo exhibition at the Serpentine Gallery in London, presents his ongoing research on proverbs. The proverbs collected here are an invitation, an exercise in collective memory, for some to change habits and not the climate. Saraceno pursues the question of whether such popular sayings carry the knowledge to forecast other climates. What if we could all re-learn how to read the weather without relying on the digital cloud?

Smith, Patti

In 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message “Hello Everybody!” Known for shooting with her beloved Land 250 Camera, Smith started posting selfies with her phone, portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith’s world, her daily coffee, the books she’s reading, the graves of beloved heroes: William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, and Albert Camus. Over the days and months, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape in the extraordinarily personal photographs that chart Smith’s passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims. Original to this book are vintage photographs: anniversary pearls, a mother’s keychain, and a husband’s Mosrite guitar. Here, too, are photos from Smith's archives of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafés, a notebook always nearby. In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world.

Contemporary Japanese Architecture. 40th Ed.
Hoy -5% en Libros

Aavv

La arquitectura japonesa contemporánea ha sido siempre una de las más imaginativas del mundo, y es famosa por sus diseños sostenibles y su creatividad. Ocho arquitectos japoneses han ganado el premio Pritzker.Desde que la Exposición Universal de Osaka de 1970 cedió el protagonismo a las formas contemporáneas, Japón ha sido un actor clave de la arquitectura global. Tadao Ando puso la arquitectura japonesa en el mapa cultural del mundo y tendió un puente entre Oriente y Occidente. Siguiendo su estela, figuras como Kengo Kuma o Shigeru Ban son pioneros de un enfoque más sostenible. Las generaciones jóvenes han desarrollado nuevas líneas en armonía con la naturaleza y la tradición en una búsqueda incesante de formas que se adapten al entorno. Este libro recoge las últimas tendencias de la arquitectura japonesa y muestra cómo su creatividad es fruto de la particular situación del país, con una alta densidad de población, una economía moderna, una larga historia y la presencia continua de terremotos. La aceptación de la ambigüedad, el cambio constante y la amenaza de las catástrofes demuestra por qué la arquitectura japonesa es única.Derivada del libro de tamaño XL, esta edición asequible destaca 39 arquitectos y 55 proyectos, como el Teatro Poly de Shanghái de Tadao Ando, la sala de conciertos La Seine Musical de Shigeru Ban, Grace Farms de SANAA, el 4 World Trade Center de Fumihiko Maki o la clínica dental sostenible de Takashi Suo. Un ensayo repasa la escena arquitectónica del país y muestra cómo la interacción de pasado, presente y futuro es la base de su arquitectura actual.
