Sinopse

Repulsion Attraction Mechanics explores the intriguing concept of strategic repulsion, demonstrating how "playing hard to get" can paradoxically increase desirability and influence. This self-help psychology book uncovers the mechanisms behind this phenomenon, rooted in principles like perceived value, where limited availability enhances worth, and the scarcity principle, which highlights our heightened desire for rare commodities. It also examines psychological reactance, the urge to defy restrictions. These insights offer a novel approach to understanding attraction, moving beyond conventional advice and delving into the psychology of social influence.

 
The book presents a structured exploration, beginning with defining strategic repulsion and distinguishing it from simple rejection. It then systematically unpacks the psychological underpinnings, dedicating chapters to perceived value, scarcity, and psychological reactance. Applying these concepts, the book investigates their impact on diverse areas such as romantic relationships, business negotiations, and marketing strategies.

 
Finally, it delves into ethical considerations, advocating for responsible application. By blending research, case studies, and real-world examples, it offers a unique perspective on how measured distance can foster genuine connections and achieve desired outcomes.

Cuba's Baseball Defectors - The...

Peter Costa Bjarkman

“Takes an inside look into the wave of player departures that has rocked the game both in Cuba and the U.S., while providing historical perspective.” —USA Today   The stellar play and fascinating backstories of exiled Cuban sluggers and hurlers has become part of Major League Baseball history. On-field exploits by colorful Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig, AL rookie-of-the-year José Abreu, home run derby champion Yoenis Céspedes, radar-gun busting Cincinnati fast-baller Aroldis Chapman, and a handful of others have been further enhanced by feel-good tales of desperate Cuban superstars risking their lives to escape Fidel Castro’s communist realm and chase an American Dream of financial and athletic success. But a truly ugly underbelly to this story has also slowly emerged—one that involves human smuggling operations financed by Miami crime syndicates, operated by Mexican drug cartels, and conveniently ignored by ball clubs endlessly searching for fresh waves of international talent.   Given rare access to Cuba and its ballplayers, Peter C. Bjarkman has spent over twenty years traveling to all corners of the island getting to know the top Cuban stars and witnessing their struggles and triumphs. In this book, Bjarkman places events in the context of Cuban baseball history and tradition before delving into the stories of the major Cuban stars who have left the island. He reveals their personal histories, explains the events that led them to defect from their homeland, and details their harrowing journeys to US shores. Players whose big-league dreams failed are also discussed, as are Cuba’s efforts to stem the defection tide through working agreements with the Japanese and Mexican leagues. Cuba’s Baseball Defectors will fascinate baseball fans, those interested in the history of US-Cuba relations, and those wanting to learn more about the unsavory story of human trafficking in the name of baseball glory.   “A revelation . . . an original social history for sports enthusiasts and readers interested in past and future Cuba–U.S. ties.” —Library Journal Includes photos
