What makes it worse is the obvious satisfaction that all the former Beartown players, who now play for a rival team in Hed, take in that fact. Amidst the mounting tension between the two rivals, a surprising newcomer is handpicked to be Beartown's new hockey coach.Soon a new team starts to take shape around Amat, the fastest player you'll ever see Benji, the crazed lone wolf and Vidar, a born-to-be-bad troublemaker. Bringing this team together is a challenge as old bonds are broken, new ones are formed, and the enmity with Hed grows more and more acute.As the big match approaches, the not-so-innocent pranks and incidents between the communities pile up, and hatred grows deeper. When the last game is finally played, one of Beartown's key players will be dead, and residents of both towns are forced to wonder whether, after all they've been through, the game they love can ever return to something simple and innocent.

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.

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.''

A gripping and explosive account of Vladimir Putin's tyranny, charting his rise from spy to tsar, exposing the events that led to his invasion of Ukraine and his assault on Europe. In Killer in the Kremlin, award-winning journalist John Sweeney takes readers from the heart of Putin's Russia to the killing fields of Chechnya, to the embattled cities of an invaded Ukraine. In a disturbing exposé of Putin's sinister ambition, Sweeney draws on thirty years of his own reporting - from the Moscow apartment bombings to the atrocities committed by the Russian Army in Chechnya, to the annexation of Crimea and a confrontation with Putin over the shooting down of flight MH17 - to understand the true extent of Putin's long war. Drawing on eyewitness accounts and compelling testimony from those who have suffered at Putin's hand, we see the heroism of the Russian opposition, the bravery of the Ukrainian resistance, and the brutality with which the Kremlin responds to such acts of defiance, assassinating or locking away its critics, and stopping at nothing to achieve its imperialist aims.
