From the acclaimed author of Think Like a Rocket Scientist comes a simple guide to unlock your originality and unleash your unique talents
 
We say some people march to the beat of a different drummer. But implicit in this cliché is that the rest of us march to the same beat. We sleepwalk through life, find ourselves on well-worn paths that were never ours to walk, and become a silent extra in someone else’s story.

Extraordinary people carve their own paths as leaders and creators. They think and act with genuine independence. They stand out from the crowd because they embody their own shape and color.

We call these people geniuses—as if they’re another breed. But genius isn’t for a special few. It can be cultivated.

This book will show you how. You’ll learn how to discard what no longer serves you and discover your first principles—the qualities that make up your genius. You’ll be equipped to escape your intellectual prisons and generate original insights from your own depths. You’ll discover how to look where others don’t look and see what others don’t see. You’ll give birth to your genius, the universe-denter you were meant to be.

Awaken Your Genius by Ozan Varol Read by Ozan Varol - Audiobook Excerpt

An exploration of the new science behind our most underappreciated sense and why we need to harness the power of touch for our health and well-being.

Every day, we use our sense of touch to navigate the world. A handshake, a pat on the shoulder, a hug—all essential touches that make up our daily lives. In Touch Matters, Professor Michael Banissy brings together diverse scientific insights from the world's largest study on touch with takeaways on how to enhance your levels of touch for a happier, healthier life. The book explains why touch is essential to our well-being, the role it plays in our relationships, friendships, in the bedroom, workplace, in team activities such as sports, and much more.

Banissy's latest research explores:
Our "touch personalities"
Touch starvation
How touch defines our relationships and self-esteem
The impact of touch on our physical and mental health
This is a fascinating window into one of our most important and basic senses and how to harness its power.

FEATURES ORIGINAL RESEARCH FROM "THE TOUCH TEST": Touch Matters is based on one of Banissy's most recent projects—the Touch Test—a science and broadcast collaboration with the BBC and Wellcome Collection. This project explored attitudes and experiences of touch via the world's largest contemporary survey on the topic, public exhibitions, and a series of broadcast programs focused on the topic of touch that received worldwide attention. The project had approximately 40,000 participants from 113 countries.

OFFERS GUIDANCE ON COMMUNICATING AND CONNECTING IN OUR DAILY AND PROFESSIONAL LIVES: As we return to office work and live in a world where touch has become loaded with meaning, this book will help people understand how important touch is and the role it plays in every aspect of our lives, from relationships and friendships to the workplace and team activities and much more.

Perfect for:
Readers interested in science, psychology, and self-help
Fans of James Nestor's Breath, Marc Brackett's Permission to Feel, Bill Bryson's The Body, Mark Miodownik's Stuff Matters
Adults and parents of children resuming in-person activities including going back to the office, returning to school, traveling, and socializing
Those interested in learning more about the science of touch, touch starvation, and how important touch is to child/human development
People struggling with depression or anxiety around physical contact

Touch Matters by Michael Banissy Read by Michael Banissy - Audiobook Excerpt

Brian Lowery joins the podcast to discuss his book, SELFLESS, with Michael Fynan. Learn more: https://www.harperacademic.com/book/9780062913005/selfless.

Brian Lowery

The architect of some of the most famous ad campaigns of the last decade argues that culture is the most powerful vehicle for influencing behavior, and shows readers how to harness culture to inspire other people to share their vision.

We all try to influence others in our daily lives. We are all marketers, whether you are a manager motivating your team, an employee making a big presentation, an activist staging a protest, or a teacher trying to encourage your students. In For the Culture, Marcus Collins argues that true cultural engagement is the most powerful vehicle for influencing behavior. To effectively engage with communities we first need to think hard about what we will contribute to those communities.

Collins uses stories from his own life as a top marketer, from spearheading digital strategy for Beyoncé, to working with iTunes and Nike+ on their collaboration, to the successful launch of the Nets NBA team in Brooklyn, to break down the ways in which culture influences behavior. Then, he shows readers how they can do the same. With a deep perspective based on a century’s worth of data, and designed for our hyper-connected, light-speed world, For the Culture will give readers the tools to inspire collective change by encouraging us to always consider not only what culture can do for us, but what we can do for the culture.

For the Culture by Marcus Collins Read by Cary Hite - Audiobook Excerpt

These people are conspiracy theorists. They organize online. They hate. They believe in mass murder, they are proud of it. From the Corona-Leugnern in Germany to the Proud Boys in the US, the Radical Right is gaining ground all over the world, while it gains ground on the internet. 

This Podcast is an attempt to dissecate online radical right through a double, comparative case-study. We unpack hate-speech, the construction of the other/ennemy, the place of body, identity, experience and the cognitive roots that allows hate to take place.

This Podcast was produced in the context of a Freie Universität Berlin Master level course on "Body, Identity, Experience" given during Winter Semester 2020-2021.

Co hosts : Nicolas Rautenberg and Leonard Sandeau

Ep. 1 - Hate Unpacked - Intro

In this episode, Dr. Alison Jane interviews Dr. Aaron Weinschenk, Director of the Social Sciences and Public Policy domain and the Ben J. and Joyce Rosenberg Professor of Political Science at UW-Green Bay. They explore the topic of political engagement, delving into why some individuals actively participate in politics, why others abstain, and why some fall in between. Dr. Weinschenk shares insights on the influences of family socialization, social identity, and contextual factors that shape individuals' political involvement. He also discusses his research on the role of genetics in understanding the likelihood of political engagement. 

Episode 155: Why do (only) some people care about politics? (w/ Dr. Aaron Weinschenk)

In this engaging episode of Psychology and Stuff, host Dr. Alison Jane Martingano sits down with Dr. Matt Coleman, Executive Director of Giving Multiplier. Dr. Coleman shares insights on charitable giving, discussing what motivates people to donate, from emotional connections to causes to the reinforcing "warm glow" of making a positive impact. He also highlights research showing that the joy of giving often lasts longer than the satisfaction from everyday purchases, making charitable contributions a boost for both recipients and donors alike. 

As the holiday season approaches, this episode offers practical and thought-provoking ideas on how to give meaningfully and maximize the impact of donations.

Milgram Deneyi’nden yola çıktım, sıradan insanların nasıl farkında olmadan zulmün parçası haline gelebildiğini konuştum.

Bu sadece büyük politik yapılarla ilgili değil; iş yerinde, günlük hayatta, hepimizin içinde yaşanan bir çelişki:
İtaat mi, vicdan mı?

AHİR ZAMAN CADISI
Uyanmak için kahveden daha iddialı olan Ahir Zaman Cadısı’nın dijital şatosuna hoş geldiniz. Bu şatonun koridorlarında hayatın karmaşasında fark etmeden yanından geçtiğimiz o ince detaylara “Psst. Az baksana buraya” diye sizi taciz ederek geri çağırmayı umuyorum. Gündelik hayatta gözden kaçırdığımız basit ama güçlü gerçekleri, bazen de gözümüzün içine bakıp kendini unutturan o bilgeliğimizi birlikte ortaya çıkarma peşindeyim. Yavan bilginin soğuk “öğreticiliği” yerine hayatla ve kendimizle geçtiğimiz dalgalarda sörf yapalım niyetindeyim.

Ahir zamanda ortaya çıkan bu cadının kim olduğunu merak ediyor olabileceğinizi düşüyorum aslında bunun bir önemi olmasa da… Kısaca, üniversite koridorlarında öğretim üyesi, terapi odasında bir rehber, kurumsal danışmanlık masasında ise karmaşık düğümleri çözmeyi seven bir yol arkadaşı. Eğitim bilimleri doktorası, sistemik terapi eğitimi, hipnoterapi deneyimi ve yılların getirdiği kurumsal danışmanlık tecrübesiyle, çeşitli disiplinlerin bu renkli bahçesinde yetişmiş dikenli yabani bir bitkidir diyelim. 

Ahir Zaman Cadısı’nda her hafta 30 ila 45 dakikalık videolarda; eldivenden merdivene, nakliyattan bakliyata her konu gündemimize gelebilir. Bilimsel gelişmeler ışığında bir konuyu tartışırken konuyu hangi ara tarot kartlarındaki bilgeliğe bağladığımızı anlamayacağımız bir karmaşanın içinde, sorularımıza yanıtlar ararken mevzunun içinden yeni sorularla çıkarsak pek şaşırmayalım Ahir Zaman Cadısının dijital şatosunda. Burası öyle bir yer çünkü. Rot-Balansı hafiften ayarsız, yokuş aşağı giderken frensiz hissetmek olası. 

Eğer hayatınızın ezgisinde biraz farklı notalar duymaya, 9/8’lik roman ritmiyle vals yapmaya hazırsanız, burada sizi bekliyorum. 

Sevgiler
Dr. Meral Apak
