Sinopse

Office Rivalries explores the complex role of workplace competition in modern organizations, moving beyond simple notions of "good" or "bad." It examines how competition, a key element of organizational behavior, impacts employee motivation, productivity, and corporate culture, drawing from psychology and management theory. The book highlights that while competition can drive performance, it may also corrode collaboration, especially when it becomes toxic. Interestingly, the type of competition—individual versus team-based—significantly shapes employee behavior and organizational success. 

 
The book begins by establishing a theoretical context, including concepts like social comparison theory. Progressing through four parts, it defines different types of rivalries, explores motivational aspects, investigates cultural dimensions, and synthesizes research for practical strategies. 

 
Through case studies and empirical research, Office Rivalries provides practical insights for managers and employees to navigate workplace competition effectively, emphasizing a balance between healthy competition and mitigating negative consequences, ultimately fostering a fair, transparent, and ethical environment.

Metacognitive Therapy - Free...

Linda Burlan Sørensen

“Metacognitive Therapy – Free Yourself from Imprisoning Thoughts”
Metacognitive therapy is a groundbreaking approach in psychology, emphasizing the identification and challenge of metacognitive processes that individuals employ when dealing with their thoughts and feelings. By understanding and addressing the metacognitive management systems underlying behaviour and thought patterns, individuals can break free from the cycle of anxiety, depression, and stress. Offering a comprehensive understanding and practical guidance, the book empowers readers to explore the mechanisms behind thought patterns and emotional reactions influencing their well-being.
We cannot get better by ruminating and worrying. Nevertheless, these are the strategies for many who suffer from anxiety and depression. But a wound does not heal by continuing to scratch at it. It just becomes bigger and bigger. If we spend several hours each day wondering about our gloomy thoughts, we become even more depressed and anxious, and do not thrive well psychologically. By using cases as examples, "Metacognitive Therapy – Free Yourself from Imprisoning Thoughts" shows us how metacognitive therapy can help us manage our thought processes. At the same time, this book is also a critical voice and warning about the evaluation culture we have created. A culture where more and more people are developing anxiety and depressive disorders because we are constantly under surveillance and must fit into certain schemas. We need to learn how to think for ourselves and be aware that we can regain control over our thought processes.
The author Linda Burlan Sørensen is a licensed clinical psychologist and specialist in psychotherapy and supervision. She is an expert in metacognitive therapy and owner of the Neokognitivt Institut in Copenhagen, Denmark, which offers therapy, professional courses, education, and supervision.

The Kreutzer Sonata - A Dark...

Leo Tolstoy, Tim Zengerink

What if your love story ended not in romance—but in murder? 
The Kreutzer Sonata is Leo Tolstoy’s explosive confession of a man undone by love. On a quiet train ride, a fellow passenger shares the dark tale of his marriage—one that spiraled from desire into mistrust, jealousy, and eventually, an unthinkable crime. 
In this modern translation, Tolstoy’s intense meditation on passion, marriage, and morality is presented with emotional depth and gripping clarity. A powerful short novel that holds nothing back. 
What You’ll Hear in This Adaptation: 
- A deeply personal, psychological descent into obsessive jealousy and regret 
- A bold critique of love, marriage, and sexual hypocrisy 
- A modern, emotionally intense rendition of Tolstoy’s rawest novella 
- A tale of moral struggle that asks: Can love survive truth? 
Short in length but epic in its emotional and ethical impact, The Kreutzer Sonata will challenge what you think you know about love.

Old Gods New Enigmas - Marx's...

Mike Davis

Marx has returned, but which Marx? Recent biographies have proclaimed him to be an emphatically nineteenth-century figure, but in this book, Mike Davis's first directly about Marx and Marxism, a thinker comes to light who speaks to the present as much as the past. In a series of searching, propulsive essays, Davis, the bestselling author of City of Quartz and recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship, explores Marx's inquiries into two key questions of our time: Who can lead a revolutionary transformation of society? And what is the cause—and solution—of the planetary environmental crisis? 
 
Davis consults a vast archive of labor history to illuminate new aspects of Marx's theoretical texts and political journalism. He offers a "lost Marx," whose analyzes of historical agency, nationalism, and the "middle landscape" of class struggle are crucial to the renewal of revolutionary thought in our darkening age. Davis presents a critique of the current fetishism of the "anthropocene," which suppresses the links between the global employment crisis and capitalism's failure to ensure human survival in a more extreme climate. In a finale, Old Gods, New Enigmas looks backward to the great forgotten debates on alternative socialist urbanism (1880–1934) to find the conceptual keys to a universal high quality of life in a sustainable environment.
