Sinopse

Staplers in Workplaces explores the unexpectedly rich history and mechanics of the stapler, a seemingly mundane tool that has profoundly shaped modern office culture. This book reveals how the stapler, initially a luxury item, evolved into an indispensable component of efficient document management and office workflows. It examines the stapler’s transition from early manual forms to sophisticated automated models, highlighting key innovations and their impact. The book dissects the mechanics of various stapler types, offering insights into the engineering principles behind their design. It also analyzes the stapler's broader societal impact, demonstrating how its adoption revolutionized organization and our perception of efficiency. For example, early staplers were handmade, making them expensive and exclusive to the wealthy, while mass production made staplers affordable and ubiquitous. Through a chronological exploration, Staplers in Workplaces traces the stapler's development, dissects its mechanics with diagrams, and analyzes its impact on workplace efficiency. By integrating technological history with social and cultural analysis, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of a tool we often take for granted, examining its environmental impact and staple-free alternatives.

    "The Hundred Years' War on Palestine" by Rashid Khalidi presents a comprehensive history of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict from a Palestinian perspective. It begins with an 1899 letter from Yusuf Diya al-Khalidi, the author's ancestor, warning against Zionist plans in Palestine. Khalidi uses archival materials and family reports to challenge traditional narratives of the conflict as a mere clash over territory. He argues that it's a century-long colonial war against Palestinians, led by Zionists and later Israel, with support from Britain and the U.S. The book covers major events like the Balfour Declaration, the 1948 destruction of Palestine, and Israel’s 1982 Lebanon invasion. Khalidi aims to provide a balanced account, acknowledging Palestinian leadership flaws and the rise of national movements on both sides and offering a fresh perspective on an ongoing conflict.

    Essays on human alienation, mode of existence, consumerism, narcissism, and more from "both a psychologist of penetration and a writer of ability" (Chicago Tribune). 
     
     
     
    As Erich Fromm points out, ours is "a life between having and being"—between mere having and healthy being, between destructiveness and creativity, between narcissism and productive self-understanding, between passivity and the joy of positive activity. 
     
     
     
    The alternatives of having and being are basic orientations of our character and determine our behavior. The mostly unpublished and unknown texts featured in The Essential Fromm encapsulate the psychologist's views on the fulfilling life. To put down roots yet remain free is what the late Erich Fromm called the art of being. It is the secret of happiness.

    [How to Be Curious] unfolds like a meditation on the art of questioning everything, weaving together the delicate threads of wonder and discovery that shape our understanding of the world. Within these pages lies an intricate exploration of what it means to remain perpetually inquisitive, told with the same careful attention to the inner workings of human nature that marks the best contemporary literary fiction. Through lyrical prose that captures the essence of intellectual awakening, this guide illuminates the subtle ways curiosity transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary revelations. Drawing from both scientific rigor and artistic sensitivity, it challenges readers to rediscover their capacity for wonder, teaching them to navigate the delicious uncertainty that lies between knowing and not knowing. This isn't just another self-help manual – it's an intimate conversation about the courage it takes to remain open to life's endless possibilities, about finding beauty in the questions themselves rather than rushing toward answers.

    "5 Held in Plot to Bug Democrats' Offices": The legendary articles that exposed a crime, ended a presidency, and changed a nation. The Washington Post's seminal Watergate stories have been gathered together for the first time, including a foreword by journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein assessing the impact of their stories decades later. "5 Held in Plot to Bug Democrats' Offices Here", said the headline at the bottom of page one in the Washington Post on Sunday, June 18, 1972. The story reported that a team of burglars had been arrested inside the offices of the Democratic National Committee in the Watergate office complex in Washington. On assignment, Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward uncovered a widespread political scandal and cover-up at the highest levels of government, culminating with the resignation of President Richard Nixon. The Post won a Pulitzer Prize for its work, which became the subject of two bestselling books and a renowned movie, All the President's Men. This book is a look back at the dramatic chain of events that would convulse Washington for two years and lead to the first resignation of a U. S. president, forever changing American politics.

    Across the world people are paralysed, abducted, abused and terrorised. Landscapes are burned and scarred. Towns are closed down, radio stations threatened and lies are spread. Why? Because our governments are covering up the greatest of secrets. The aliens are here. They are contacting us and even abducting us. 
     
    Our secretive military and inner-governments know what is happening and they are hiding it from us. They close down every site, cordon off, recover technology and corpses and then cover-up. They have been doing so for decades and we are being fooled. 
     
    This is the story of alien contact from across the globe. This is the tale of how aliens have infiltrated our very governments who work with them to hide the secrets. This is the amazing truth about alien contact and abduction.
