Sinopsis

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.

In his first true crime memoir, undercover operator Norm Boucher recounts eight months spent infiltrating Vancouver's heroin scene, a world of paranoia, ripoffs, and violence. It is 1983 and the War on Drugs is intensifying. From his barroom observer's seat, Boucher candidly reveals the lives of heroin addicts who spend each day looking for their next hit. Their dangerous subculture, centered around three gritty hotels on the Granville Strip, becomes Boucher's domain as he attempts both to gain acceptance in a world far removed from his own and to keep himself safe. 
 
 
 
With Horseplay, decorated RCMP officer Norm Boucher takes listeners back to the assignment that shaped his outlook on the role of criminal law enforcement and the human side of addiction as it collides with the ruthlessness of the drug business.

Combat-decorated Marine officer Stuart Scheller speaks out against the debacle of the Afghan pullout as the culmination of a decades-long and still-ongoing betrayal of military members by top leadership, from generals to the commander in chief, comes to light. 
 
 
 
Lieutenant Colonel Stuart Scheller was the perfect Marine. Battle tested. A leader. Decorated for valor. Yet when the United States acted like the Keystone Cops in a panicked haphazard exit from Afghanistan for political reasons, Scheller spoke out, and the generals lashed out. In fact, they jailed him to keep him quiet, claiming he lost the "trust and confidence" bestowed upon him by the Marines—when the faith and trust is exactly what our generals and even our commander-in-chief betrayed by exercising such reckless and derelict policies. Now Scheller is free from the shackles of the Marine Corps and can speak his mind. And in Crisis of Command, that he does. He holds our generals' feet to the fire. The same generals who play frivolously with the lives of our service men and women for political gain. The same generals who lied to political leaders to further their own agendas and careers. Stuart Scheller is here to say that the buck stops here. Accountability starts now. It's time to demand accountability and stand up for our military. In this book, Stuart Scheller shows us how.

Being a parent is probably the most important job many of us will ever have. In this book, clinical psychologist Dr. Edward Christophersen and his colleague, child psychologist Dr. Susan Mortweet, show parents how to raise their child to become the adult we'd all like to be—one who is happy and compassionate, confident but not aggressive, and able to make and keep friends. 
 
 
 
They point out that from babyhood on through the school years, children learn these qualities by observing and interacting with their parents. In clearly written, easy-to-follow chapters, parents are shown how to model and reward positive behaviors and avoid the need for ineffective, punitive discipline. 
 
 
 
Two key areas are covered in the book: building one's own skills as a parent, and then building one's child's competencies. Scores of practical examples show parents how to teach their children what is important in life, how to communicate clearly, and how to effectively discipline their child. Special parenting topics such as managing a child's behavior in public, monitoring TV, toys, and games, and handling fallout from divorce are also discussed. Listeners then learn how to build their child's basic skills by teaching him or her how to quickly get over upsets and how to play independently.

In this 2023 conversation with Justine Wilils Toms, podcaster and workshop leader Omkari Williams addresses the question: How do we keep ourselves “in the game” when we become overwhelmed, dispirited, and downhearted by the enormity of needs in today’s challenging times? Williams gives us some powerful suggestions for a sustainable form of activism that she describes as micro-activism. She believes that the size of the action isn’t the point. What matters is that we take regular action. These can be done in a small amount of time and don’t take a huge amount of energy, yet they have a cumulative effect that is disproportionate to the individual effort they require. Together these millions of incremental steps lead to a tipping point. Indeed, over and over history has shown this to be true.  
Omkari L. Williams is the author of: Micro Activism: How You Can Make a Difference in the World (without a Bullhorn): Small Actions Equal Big Results. (Storey publishing 2023)
