Sinossi

Peer Pressure Effects explores how external influences, particularly from peers, can significantly contribute to addictive behaviors. It argues that social dynamics often overshadow individual willpower, challenging the traditional view of addiction as solely a personal failing. The book delves into the subtle ways peer pressure manifests, including normalized behaviors and the desire for social acceptance, highlighting how these factors can be catalysts for substance abuse and other addictive habits. For example, the book analyzes the psychological vulnerabilities, such as low self-esteem, that amplify the effects of external pressures.

The book examines the direct impact of peer influence on initiating addictive behaviors and the sustaining role of social circles in maintaining them. Through case studies and research findings, it illustrates the impact of peer pressure on various types of addiction, including substance abuse and internet addiction. The book progresses from defining peer pressure and exploring psychological vulnerabilities to analyzing specific contexts like school environments and online communities.

The book also offers practical prevention strategies for resisting peer pressure and fostering supportive environments. By understanding the dynamics of social influence, readers can develop strategies for making healthier choices. This approach makes the book valuable to students, parents, educators, and mental health professionals seeking to prevent addiction and support those struggling with addictive behaviors.

Bridgebuilders - How Government...

William D. Eggers, Donald F. Kettl

Our government is in crisis, mired in bureaucracy and often unable to fix tough problems. This book provides an essential new model for transforming the system and getting things done. 
 
 
 
COVID. Climate change. Refugee resettlement. Global supply chains. We're facing a new generation of complex problems, stretching across the public and private sectors. Historically we've looked to government for big solutions, but the reality is, the government we have now is a poor match for the problems we face. 
 
 
 
We need a fresh, new approach. As William D. Eggers and Donald F. Kettl show in this indispensable book, we need a government of bridgebuilders—public managers and leaders who collaborate with partners, both inside and outside government, to get the job done. They manage horizontally instead of vertically, they see their role as connectors, and they identify which players have the assets needed to solve the problems at hand. 
 
 
 
Each chapter examines one of the ten core principles of bridgebuilding and features practical tips and dynamic cases of how effective leaders have put each principle to work. Also included is a special section on creating a hundred-day bridgebuilding plan.
