  Vandana Shiva has been described in many ways: the “Gandhi of Grain,” “a rock star” in the battle against GMOs, and “the most powerful voice” for people of the developing world. For over four decades, she has vociferously advocated for diversity, indigenous knowledge, localization, and real democracy; she has been at the forefront of seed saving, food sovereignty, and connecting the dots between the destruction of nature, the polarization of societies, and indiscriminate corporate greed. In Terra Viva, Dr. Shiva shares her most memorable campaigns, alongside some of the world’s most celebrated activists and environmentalists, all working toward a livable planet and healthier democracies. For the very first time, she also recounts the stories of her childhood in post-partition India?the influence of the Himalayan forests she roamed; her parents, who saw no difference in the education of boys and girls at a time when this was not the norm; and the Chipko movement, whose women were “the real custodians of biodiversity-related knowledge.” Throughout, Shiva’s pursuit of a unique intellectual path marrying quantum physics with science, technology, and environmental policy will captivate listeners. Terra Viva is a celebration of a remarkable life and a clear-eyed assessment of the challenges we face moving forward?including those revealed by the COVID crisis, the privatization of biotechnology, and the commodification of our biological and natural resources.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  The anxiety is real. AI can write code, analyze data, and draft reports in seconds. But while machines excel at pattern recognition, they fail at the work that actually drives careers: leadership, complex judgment, and genuine human connection. 
  AI-Proof Your Career: 55 Skills to Stay Relevant as AI Evolves is your practical guide to thriving in the age of automation. 
  Written by Eric Thompson, a Senior ML Engineer who transitioned from oilfield work to building AI systems, this book bridges the gap between technical reality and career strategy. Thompson doesn't just theorize about AI's impact—he builds the systems changing the workplace. 
  Master the skills AI cannot replicate: 
  • Critical thinking that surpasses algorithms - Ask better questions, define real problems, and reason under uncertainty • Creative thinking for original solutions - Generate ideas AI cannot, think across domains, and take calculated risks 
  • Emotional intelligence for human connection - Read rooms, build trust, and lead through uncertainty 
  • Strategic judgment in gray zones - Make ethical decisions when data runs out, and value conflict 
  • Communication that sounds unmistakably human - Persuade, influence, and tell stories that change minds • Leadership that motivates people, not metrics - Build cultures, develop talent, and navigate change 
  Based on research from Harvard, Stanford, and the World Economic Forum, each skill includes practical frameworks you can implement immediately.

  Don’t just see the sights―get to know the people. 
   
  A land of mountains, hills, and fertile plains, Romania is a tourist destination waiting to be discovered. It is a rich and complex country: a place whose cities are home to beautiful parks and vibrant cultural scenes; whose people welcome guests warmly into their homes, sharing the best of whatever they have, and party into the night, suffused by Latin joie de vivre. Buffeted over time between three great powers—the West, Russia, and Turkey—Romania betrays the cultural influences of each, and it can be a difficult place to get a handle on. 
   
  Culture Smart! Romania provides an indispensable tool for the foreign visitor, digging deep behind the cliches, explaining many of the behavioral quirks of the people, smoothing your path toward better understanding, and outlining the many attractions—cultural, social, and geographical—that await you in this underexplored part of Europe. 
   
  Have a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values, attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.

  Mastering the Next Online Negotiation with Confidence!
  Negotiating online presents its own set of challenges. You find yourself speaking into black holes when the other party hasn't turned on their camera, receiving no feedback on facial expressions. Does the other party even understand your proposal? Is anyone even listening? And if so, who? Or perhaps the connection doesn't even establish, or it drops out midway. Even for experienced negotiators, this new mode of negotiation is fraught with uncertainties. We haven't yet developed sufficient expertise in remote negotiation.
  But did you know that major corporations are already closing billion-dollar deals via platforms like MS Teams & Co.? Online negotiations will continue to be part of our future, as they save resources such as travel time and expenses.
  Learn how to adapt your negotiation skills to remote settings, how to handle interruptions like emails, calls, video, and audio disruptions that disrupt the flow of negotiation. Gain sovereignty in the face of adverse circumstances and make this new core competency your own.
  The book by negotiation expert Jutta Portner is aimed at anyone who no longer negotiates solely face-to-face. Become a virtual negotiation pro!
