A Most Unusual Relationship, Pros & Cons Humor dominates the general tone of this action-focused story. Ms. Ingram, a failed professor of Psychology, proposes to save a retirement community from bankruptcy, thanks to her visionary theory, which brings together the most unlikely partners, elderly people and convicts. She will prove that by sharing intimate resources, damaged individuals can conquer their respective disabilities. After some turbulent initial encounters, both groups work out their differences and start getting along. Through their mutual interaction, they change. Both learn how to cope with each other's predicaments. But before reaching her goal, Ms. Ingram will have to overcome the nefarious machinations of both Dr. Dreidfoil, the facility medical chief, and his nephew, Eric Flint, a Harvard graduate business executive, who have personal interest in her program's failure. "Pros and Cons" is a story of hope in human potential, where integrity and candor triumph over greed and conceit.

A New York Times Notable Book of 2020 A Bloomberg Best Non-Fiction Book of 2020 A Behavioral Scientist Notable Book of 2020 A Human Behavior & Evolution Society Must-Read Popular Evolution Book of 2020 A bold, epic account of how the co-evolution of psychology and culture created the peculiar Western mind that has profoundly shaped the modern world. Perhaps you are WEIRD: raised in a society that is Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic. If so, you’re rather psychologically peculiar. Unlike much of the world today, and most people who have ever lived, WEIRD people are highly individualistic, self-obsessed, control-oriented, nonconformist, and analytical. They focus on themselves—their attributes, accomplishments, and aspirations—over their relationships and social roles. How did WEIRD populations become so psychologically distinct? What role did these psychological differences play in the industrial revolution and the global expansion of Europe during the last few centuries? In The WEIRDest People in the World, Joseph Henrich draws on cutting-edge research in anthropology, psychology, economics, and evolutionary biology to explore these questions and more. He illuminates the origins and evolution of family structures, marriage, and religion, and the profound impact these cultural transformations had on human psychology. Mapping these shifts through ancient history and late antiquity, Henrich reveals that the most fundamental institutions of kinship and marriage changed dramatically under pressure from the Roman Catholic Church. It was these changes that gave rise to the WEIRD psychology that would coevolve with impersonal markets, occupational specialization, and free competition—laying the foundation for the modern world. Provocative and engaging in both its broad scope and its surprising details, The WEIRDest People in the World explores how culture, institutions, and psychology shape one another, and explains what this means for both our most personal sense of who we are as individuals and also the large-scale social, political, and economic forces that drive human history. Includes black-and-white illustrations.

Though open public discussion of the oppression of women was precluded by the nature of Hispanic societies during the nineteenth century, some Hispanic women - among them the Cuban writer Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda - subtly sought to promote ideas of emancipation. Focusing upon her autobiographical letters and a selection of her novels, and drawing on contemporary psychoanalytical feminist theory, this book traces the evolution of Avellaneda's feminism, showing how she developed a series of narrative techniques and stylistic resources to explore male and female self-representation, and subvert the existing textual tradition. Fashioning Feminism in Cuba and Beyond establishes Avellaneda at the forefront of both Cuban and Hispanic nineteenth-century literature and feminist thought.

First Published in 1999. The antecedents and consequences of forming partnerships across types and sizes of organizations have been addressed in the literature. Yet, most research has focused on the costs or benefits of these relationships at a given point in time. An issue that has not been addressed is the extent to which these long-term relationships continue to benefit the firm as the firm changes and grows. The aims of this study are to investigate whether action in accordance with the contrasting theoretical perspectives depends on the attributes of the value-chain partnership; and research to evaluate these contrasting perspectives on the relationship between value-chain partnerships and growth.
