Följ med Tess Medina till städerna hon älskar: Los Angeles, Stockholm och Paris. Här har hon levt och funnit den matglädje som hon nu delar med sig av i À table med Tess. Från barndomens tuna melt i LA, till stekt strömming i ett frostigt Stockholm. Sedan går resan till Paris, där Tess som 20-åring njuter av stora mängder löksoppa, ost och rödvin – och på köpet lär sig förhandla med barska grönsakshandlare. Tess älskar att öppna kylen och se vad hon har hemma, improvisera ihop något riktigt gott och bjuda hem vännerna.

Most of us have no idea what's really going on inside our heads. Yet brain scientists have uncovered details every business leader, parent, and teacher should know--like the need for physical activity to get your brain working its best. How do we learn? What exactly do sleep and stress do to our brains? Why is multi-tasking a myth? Why is it so easy to forget--and so important to repeat new knowledge? Is it true that men and women have different brains? In Brain Rules, Dr. John Medina, a molecular biologist, shares his lifelong interest in how the brain sciences might influence the way we teach our children and the way we work. In each chapter, he describes a brain rule--what scientists know for sure about how our brains work--and then offers transformative ideas for our daily lives. Medina's fascinating stories and infectious sense of humor breathe life into brain science. You'll learn why Michael Jordan was no good at baseball. You'll peer over a surgeon's shoulder as he proves that most of us have a Jennifer Aniston neuron. You'll meet a boy who has an amazing memory for music but can't tie his own shoes.You will discover how: Every brain is wired differently Exercise improves cognition We are designed to never stop learning and exploring Memories are volatile Sleep is powerfully linked with the ability to learn Vision trumps all of the other senses Stress changes the way we learn In the end, you'll understand how your brain really works--and how to get the most out of it.

’Globalisering’ och det ’globala’ är begrepp som vi har vant oss att se som självklara inslag i vår vardag. Det undgår inte någon att vi lever i ett system där olika länder och regioner har blivit allt mer beroende av varandra. Trots upp- och nedgångar finns det en sammanflätning inom områden som handel, kultur, migration, turism, utbildning och miljö, som gör det svårt att undvika den globala dimensionen. I denna antologi är fokus på Sveriges tidiga steg i kopplingen till det globala systemet, där vi hävdar att Latinamerika och Karibien har spelat en viktig roll. Amerikanska kontinenten betraktades av européer som en möjlighet för berikande och utopier, vilket ledde till att många svenskar försökte etablera sig i regionen. I Latinamerikas fall ser vi hur de tidiga kontakterna ledde till expansion av Sveriges globala handel, samt en utvidgning av politiska, kulturella och vetenskapliga relationer, med påverkan både i Sverige och Latinamerika. Sveriges tidiga förbindelser med Latinamerika utgör en viktig utgångspunkt för att förstå svensk-latinamerikanska relationer under modern tid, samt den svenska expansionen i andra delar av världen. Antologins kapitel belyser, ur olika synvinklar, hur svenska diplomater, företagare, botaniker, politiker, konstnärer, migranter och även äventyrare, bidrog med kontakter och insikter som kom att bli viktiga steg i uppbyggandet av Sverige som globalt inriktad nation.

In the capital, Nineveh, resides a deep and complex man, the power behind the King of the World. Faced with unforeseen disaster that threatens his authority, he emerges as a psychopathic killer.The author uses his familiarity with ancient writings preserved in the world's museums to recreate a vanished world in which those who step from the shadows in ruthless violence to pursue ultimate control show themselves at the same time to be disconcertingly human.The tight prose and graphic illustrations make this a gripping and unusual tale not of this world, but at the same time weirdly familiar.

This book provides a theoretical framework to allow educators, researchers, and policymakers to better understand computer‑generated writing and the policy and pedagogical implications of generative AI.Generative AI, such as ChatGPT and Gemini, has substantially disrupted educational spaces, forcing educators, policymakers, and other stakeholders to reconsider writing and how it should be used in education. Responding to this disruption, this book provides technically sound guidance on how various stakeholders should engage with generative AI. After providing a foundational and technical discussion of the technology, this book directly addresses the educational context. Informed by theories of learning and knowledge transfer and utilizing rhetorical theories of writing, this book assesses the impact of AI on student learning, student performance, and academic honesty and integrity. In doing so, the book outlines how generative AI can be both a help and a hindrance for students, enabling readers to craft informed and meaningful policies and successfully integrate AI in the composition classroom.This book will be of interest to scholars in the fields of Rhetoric and Composition, Technical Writing, Communication Studies, Linguistics, and TESOL, as well as to Education and Machine Learning policymakers, program directors, and researchers.

Haiku med hund - 47 haukudikter och en sonett
Ett liv med hund är fyllt av lycksaligheter, rutiner, förundran, envishet och... bara gemensam närvaro. Haiku med hund handlar just om det livet, om vänskapen och mellan hund och människa. Den är skriven för alla som har eller har haft en hund kär. Boken innehåller 47 haikudikter och en sonett. Haikudikterna är ögonblicksbetraktelser på tre rader, från stunder med den finska lapphunden Skum och andra hundar.Sonetten, däremot, är en 14-radig, rimmad, jambisk dikt. Den kom till under ett sorgeår, tillsammans med hunden Skum.Bokens författare, Marie Länne Persson, är balladsångerska och ägnar sig annars mest åt medeltida ballader. Haikun är kort och balladen är lång, men ändå har det mycket gemensamt i sitt karga språk, som visar, snarare än berättar, vad som syns ock hörs. Detta är Maries andra diktsamling, den första, Hackar is med spett, kom 2021.

This intriguing odyssey, set on the edges of time, encompasses biography, memoir, detective story, travelogue and history to tell a remarkable tale of East-West connections and a mysterious love. The author's quest begins when the word 'indigo' draws her to the illustrated journals, now in the British Library, of Victorian traveller Thomas Machell. She finds her life to have striking echoes of his, not least travels to and within India, a career in indigo, and a passion for journal writing. She is also intrigued by his aspiration to write 'a novel in the form of an autobiography' and by his quirky watercolour sketches. Retracing his footsteps - overland and by sea - from his ancestral home in the hills and dales of northern England to remote parts of the Middle East and Asia, she is often in her own footsteps too. Machell of Crackenthorpe, born in 1824, first demonstrated his yearning for adventure when only twelve, and at sixteen left the family rectory to fulfil his childhood dream of travelling to the East.By chance, he witnessed many important historical events, including the infamous First Opium War and the Indian Mutiny that profoundly affected British-Indian relationships.Machell spent most of his adult life in India, 'the land of my destiny' as he calls it; the author tracks him to the indigo and coffee plantations of rural Bengal and Kerala's Malabar Hills, to little known regions of central India; to the China Seas and remote islands of Polynesia and through the deserts of Arabia. This spellbinding book brings to life Machell's untold story, that of a spirited outsider at the time of the British Raj reaching into the future. Serendipity, intuition and an enchanting relationship, as well as the author's quest to uncover the missing years of Machell's life, give this book its magical extra dimension.

Hur utformar vi humana och hållbara organisationer? Alicia och Rolf Medina har båda lång erfarenhet av arbete i organisationer. Med grund i ett flerårigt forskningsprojekt har de tagit fram en modell för att skapa progressiva organisationsformer som bygger på tillit, öppenhet och jämlikhet.
Distributed Power-modellen strävar efter att demokratisera arbetsplatser och skapa mänskligare organisationer. Den utgår ifrån ett systemiskt förhållningssätt och ett nytt sätt att forma organisationer som inte bygger på makthierarkier. En central punkt är självorganisering av arbetet där människor får frihet att använda sin kompetens och potential.
Teal. Tillit. Transparens. innehåller konkreta exempel, praktiska verktyg och guidning för hur DP-modellen kan användas inom olika sorters verksamheter. Det är en bok för alla som är en del av en organisation och som vill påbörja eller fortsätta resan mot ett nytt sätt att organisera arbete.
Rolf Medina är född i Trelleborg och uppväxt i Eslöv. Han har en bakgrund som dataingenjör och är filosofie doktor i Management. Han är medgrundare till Future of Organizing AB där han numera ägnar all sin tid.
Alicia Medina föddes i Montevideo, Uruguay. Hon kom till Sverige 1982 som flykting via FN. Efter 20 år i arbetslivet disputerade hon år 2012 i Strategi och Management. Hon ägnar sig nu på heltid åt konsultföretaget Future of Oranizing AB.
”Vi måste vara tacksamma för att Alicia och Rolf, efter år av erfarenhet från stora traditionella och osunda företag, presenterar den här boken i vilken de med tydlighet och träffsäkerhet lyfter fram den stora möjlighet som medelstora och små företag har att forma människor som är lämpliga för sina behov, människor med de färdigheter, gåvor och talanger som dessa företag behöver. Det gäller att skapa organisationer där människorna är huvudpersonerna i en ständig nutid som består av känsla, tänkande och görande, och där de kan dela entusiasm och därmed uppnå personlig utveckling på en fysisk, mental, emotionell och andlig nivå. Detta kommer att möjliggöra en ständig framgång för dessa organisationer.”
Koldo Saratxaga, grundare av K2K Emocionado
”För alla som har en passion för att skapa organisationer som frigör den fulla potentialen av dess människor, måste samtalet handla om distribuerad makt. Denna bok är ett lysande hjälpmedel; full med historier, exempel och visdom från människor som omvärderar hur man utför arbete runt om i vår värld.”

Den här boken innehåller fiskeberättelser från mer än tre decennier från hela Sverige, flertalet av dem från Bergslagen med omnejd. Berättelserna är rika på upplevelser och erfarenheter och präglas av författarens sociala relationer och nyfikenhet på naturen. Det är en mångsidig bok som förenar fisket, människor och naturskildringar. Här beskriver fiskekamraten, pappan, fisketillsyningsmannen och styrelseledamoten hur han etablerade sitt fiske i sitt nya land, som han själv inledningsvis uttrycker det. Förutom fiskeberättelser ger författaren i bokens andra del sina personliga synpunkter, reflektioner och ställningstaganden kring sportfisket. För att få klarhet i detta diskuterar han bland annat återutsättning, fiskevård, kommersialisering och miljöpåverkan.

For companies to be successful, the management of an organization needs to understand how competence evolves and how it can be utilized and linked to the organization’s goals. When executive managers understand this, there is a higher probability that the people working in the organization will be more satisfied with their working situation. Satisfaction increases because competence will likely be central in the organization, with focus on motivating people to develop new competence, healthy internal mobility, and organizational learning. Positively managing competence in most cases leads to a win–win situation for the company and the individual.This book describes how we as individuals, as well as organizations, can be efficient in the development and utilization of competence. It takes two perspectives of competence and connects them in a project-intensive and knowledge-intensive context. The first perspective is the "Lemon," which focuses on individual competence and the role of organizational culture. The Lemon framework takes the concept of competence based on knowledge and experience and explains how a person can apply knowledge and experience to different contexts. It changes the concept of competence from being static to being agile and dynamic. The second perspective of competence is the "Loop," which models how organizations can manage not only to the benefit of organizational strategies and goals but also to an individual’s future career. The Lemon and the Loop are the basic tools to make competence and performance management agile and effective. This book presents practical ways to acquire new knowledge and skills. One method is REPI (Reflection, Elaboration, Practicing/Participation, and Investigation), which can be used for training, coaching, competence development, agile performance management, and much more. Readers of the book are given new insight into the concept of competence and how both people and organizations ca

How are contemporary authors reimagining the idea of 'Ecuador' following the worst financial crisis in the nation's history, and how do countries on the periphery of the global literary market challenge and enrich World Literature?Winner of the 2020-21 AHGBI-Spanish Embassy Publication PrizeIn March 1999, in an effort to stave off financial collapse, the Ecuadorian government suspended all banking operations and froze all bank accounts in the country for a period of five days. This episode, the Feriado Bancario, represents the peak of the worst financial crisis in the nation's history and one which had far-reaching and long-last effects on society, politics, the economy, and cultural production. The very idea of 'Ecuador' was transformed, as Ecuador became a country marked by constant interaction with the world beyond its borders. This book explores how contemporary Ecuadorian authors are reimagining the nation following the Feriado Bancario. Starting from a rereading of Ecuador's national novel, Jorge Icaza's Huasipungo (1930), which saw the nation as rooted in the land, the book examines post-crisis fiction which offers an image of Ecuador as a transnational space. It posits that these novels - Eliécer Cárdenas' El oscuro final del Porvenir (2000), Leonardo Valencia's Kazbek (2008), Carlos Arcos' Memorias de Andrés Chiliquinga (2013), and Gabriela Alemán's Humo (2017) - both reflect and explain the new reality of Ecuador as a nation that can no longer be defined by its territory. At the same time, the book uses the Ecuadorian case to challenge the conceptualisation of Latin American literature as 'post-national' and to show how countries on the periphery of the global literary market can, from the very fact of their minoritarian position, enrich and better define World Literature.

On the trip of a lifetime, Adam and Zayneb must find their way back to each other in this surprising and romantic sequel to the “bighearted, wildly charming” (Becky Albertalli, New York Times bestselling author) Love from A to Z that’s a “contemplative exploration of faith, love, and the human condition” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).Adam and Zayneb. Perfectly matched. Painfully apart. Adam is in Doha, Qatar, making a map of the Hijra, a historic migration from Mecca to Medina, and worried about where his next paycheck will come from. Zayneb is in Chicago, where school and extracurricular stresses are piling on top of a terrible frenemy situation, making her miserable. Then a marvel occurs: Adam and Zayneb get the chance to spend Thanksgiving week on the Umrah, a pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina, in Saudi Arabia. Adam is thrilled; it’s the reboot he needs and an opportunity to pray for a hijra in real life: to migrate to Zayneb in Chicago. Zayneb balks at the trip at first, having envisioned another kind of vacation, but then decides a spiritual reset is calling her name too. And they can’t wait to see each other—surely, this is just what they both need. But the trip is nothing like what they expect, from the appearance of Adam’s former love interest in their traveling group to the anxiety gripping Zayneb when she’s supposed to be “spiritual.” As one wedge after another drives them apart while they make their way through rites in the holy city, Adam and Zayneb start to wonder: was their meeting just an oddity after all? Or can their love transcend everything else like the greatest marvels of the world?

Improper governance and unethical behavior have led to such well-known financial disasters as Enron and Madoff Investments. The book arms managers with two important tools: Small Sins Allowed (SSA) and Line of Impunity (LoI), which together can be the foundation for renewed and vigorous corporate governance. SSA is a powerful tool that helps managers establish a level above which adherence to ethical standards is expected. LoI aids managers in identifying ethical fault lines that may exist in a company and helps to keep unethical behavior in check.

Winner of the 2022 AESA Critics' Choice Book AwardThis book offers a critical perspective of the education of the Latinx populations around the world. Whether they are first-generation immigrants, new immigrants, or native born, the research presented in this book pulls from the authors’ personal experiences and their students’ experiences and their rich and diverse cultures to connect with and inspire those interested in learning about the reality of Latinx populations in the US and beyond.The Latinx research described in this book aims at combatting deficit perspectives among educators and the public. It has taken on the task of highlighting the knowledges and experiences of Latinx students and their communities as strengths and resources to transform curriculum, teaching, and schooling. These chapters craft pedagogies and highlight initiatives that directly work against hegemonic and colonizing practices and schooling. As a result, this book critiques oppressive curriculum and instead recognizes the teacher as a critical actor.

Långvarig smärta leder ofta till minskat välbefinnande och till minskad generell upplevd hälsa. Inom primärvården är smärta den vanligaste orsaken till att personer söker vård. Därför måste alla som arbetar inom vården ha en bred kunskap om vad smärta är för att på bästa sätt bemöta personer med långvarig smärta.Smärta är ett mänskligt fenomen och förekommer i alla åldrar. Boken tar därför upp alltifrån smärta hos små barn till smärta hos de allra äldsta personerna. Betydelsen av att uppmärksamma och ta till vara patienters inneboende kunskap och kompetens i vårdmötet beskrivs också. Samtliga kapitel illustreras av fallbeskrivningar där utgångspunkten är olika situationer och vårdkontexter med förslag på adekvata omvårdnads- och stödåtgärder. Sjuksköterskans kärnkompetenser förankrar boken i det vårdande perspektivet.Boken riktar sig i första hand till studenter på grundutbildningar, främst till de som studerar till sjuksköterska, men även studenter inom fysioterapi och arbetsterapi kan ha stor nytta av bokens innehåll. Boken kan användas av andra professioner, liksom av studerande på olika vidareutbildningar som berör ämnet långvarig smärta.
