Sinopsis

"Industrial Growth" offers a comprehensive exploration of how technological advancement and manufacturing capabilities have fundamentally shaped modern consumption patterns and economic behavior. The book weaves together extensive economic data and sociological research to demonstrate the intricate relationship between industrial development and society's evolving material aspirations, from the Second Industrial Revolution through to today's smart manufacturing era.

 
Through a careful analysis of manufacturing data from twelve major economies, the author reveals how increased production efficiency has created a double-edged sword: while dramatically improving living standards and product accessibility, it has also fostered potentially unsustainable materialistic values. The book presents compelling evidence from global manufacturing indices and consumer spending patterns to illustrate how technological innovation has accelerated production capabilities, fundamentally altering consumer expectations and behavior along the way.

 
Starting with historical analysis, the narrative progresses through contemporary manufacturing technologies to future challenges, with a particular focus on sustainable manufacturing practices and resource consumption. The author uniquely combines insights from economics, environmental science, and social psychology to provide a balanced view of industrial advancement's benefits and unintended consequences. This approach makes the book especially valuable for business leaders, economists, and policymakers seeking to understand the complex interplay between industrial capability, consumer behavior, and environmental responsibility.

    Risk Management and ISO 31000 -...

    Risk management is a primary concern for any organisation. Its significance has only increased since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Organisations need to prepare for all types of threats, both probable (a server breaking down) and improbable (the office being flooded), to ensure that their operations can survive and adapt to continue with BAU (business as usual) in the face of a disaster.
    Yet risk management isn't solely about preventing negative outcomes, it is also about an organisation taking a known risk to uncover new opportunities to improve the organisation. For example, the transition of employees to remote working could risk an organisation's security as an employee could connect their laptop to an unsecure Wi-Fi connection. However, as demonstrated in the pandemic, remote working helped protect employees as the risk of infecting one another with COVID-19 was reduced.
    Read this pocket guide to understand how:
    
    - Risk-based management can prepare your organisation for future threats and therefore help the success of a BCP (business continuity plan);
    - To identify whether the opportunities gained from a 'risky' decision can outweigh the perceived threat;
    - The principles of ISO 31000 can help your organisation develop a framework for its approach to risk management;
    - The guidelines of ISO 31000 can be interwoven with controls in other standards such as ISO 27001 and ISO 9001; and
    - The organisation must continually review its approach to risk management to stay prepared for the latest threats.

    “When today’s technology relies on yesterday’s data, it will simply mirror our past mistakes and biases.” 
    AI and other high-tech tools embed and reinforce America’s history of prejudice and exclusion — even when they are used with the best intentions. Patrick K. Lin’s Machine See, Machine Do: How Technology Mirrors Bias in Our Criminal Justice System takes a deep and thorough look into the use of technology in the criminal justice system, and investigates the instances of coded bias present at every level. 
    In this book, you’ll learn how algorithms and high-tech tools are used in unexpected ways: suggesting which neighborhoods to police, predicting whether someone is more or less likely to commit a crime, and determining how long someone’s prison sentence should be. 
    Machine See, Machine Do takes you on an eye-opening journey of discovery, encouraging you to think twice about our current system of justice and the technology that supposedly makes it more “objective” and “fair.” If you are someone who cares deeply about criminal justice reform, is curious about the role of technology in our day-to-day lives, and ultimately believes we should aspire to make both of these spaces more ethical and safe, this book is for you.

    The open ocean, far from the shore and miles above the seafloor, is a vast and formidable habitat that is home to the most abundant life on our planet, from giant squid and jellyfish to anglerfish with bioluminescent lures that draw prey into their toothy mouths. Into the Great Wide Ocean takes listeners inside the peculiar world of the seagoing scientists who are providing tantalizing new insights into how the animals of the open ocean solve the problems of their existence. 
     
     
     
    Sönke Johnsen vividly describes how life in the water column of the open sea contends with a host of environmental challenges, such as gravity, movement, the absence of light, pressure that could crush a truck, catching food while not becoming food, finding a mate, raising young, and forming communities. He interweaves stories about the joys and hardships of the scientists who explore this beautiful and mysterious realm, which is under threat from human activity and rapidly changing before our eyes. 
     
     
     
    Into the Great Wide Ocean presents the sea and its inhabitants as you have never seen them before and reminds us that the rules of survival in the open ocean, though they may seem strange to us, are the primary rules of life on Earth.
