  • Jane Austen - A Very Short Introduction - cover

    Jane Austen - A Very Short...

    Jane Austen wrote six of the best-loved novels in the English language, as well as a smaller corpus of works unpublished in her day, including three volumes of witty, non-realist juvenilia and the innovative, unfinished, Sanditon. She pioneered new techniques for representing voices, minds, and hearts in narrative prose, and was a penetrating satirist of social tensions and trends. Yet Austen struggled for many years to break into print, and even as she became a published author in the last years of her relatively short life, reading tastes and book-trade expectations constrained as much as they enabled her literary career. 
 
 
 
This Very Short introduction explores the major themes of Austen criticism through close analysis of her major and minor works, with particular emphasis on the literary, social, and political backgrounds from which the novels emerge, and with which they engage. Thomas Keymer combines critical introductions to each of Austen's six major novels with an exploration of the key themes in her works. The Austen who emerges is a writer shaped by the literary experiments and socio-political debates of the revolution decade, drawn in her maturity to a fundamentally conservative vision of social harmony, yet forever complicating this vision through the disruptive ironies and satirical energies of her prose.

Generations blame each other for the state of the world. Kids eat a daily course of mobile phone apps and social media burgers. News is reduced to fake edible sound bites. Television and movie stars are modern day photoshopped gods. Illusion and delusion are all around us. Marketing magic created to control and manipulate the stupid masses. 
 
Reality TV stars are elected and glorified to greater heights as charity and care workers are forgotten. Zombies walk the streets desperate to find a Wi-Fi hotspot and an awesome place to take a selfie. Kids today need to find safe havens from social media attacks where their grandparents needed to find bunkers to save them from bombs. Hard times no longer means poverty and starvation, it means not having the latest fashion, mobile phone, game console and followers. An older generation wonder what all these new gender designations mean and how anybody can be fluid. They wonder why these youngsters don't want to work for a living and despair should we ever have another world war. 
 
Today the last generation look upon the so-called Millennials and wonder where they went wrong. In this book, we are going to find out that we are all Millennials and how to change.

    Did you know that diversity is one of the best tools for leadership development? 
It blocks bias so managers and leaders can make better decisions. 
This book presents a program for mental leadership fitness. The workout consists of concrete tools in areas such as digital management, behavioral management, inclusive management, and emotional intelligence. It’s not a quick fix, but an ongoing process that works, just like any other exercise program. 
The author demonstrates what it takes for diversity to promote better arguments, and innovative thinking. This means that diversity ensures better decision making because we are constantly reminded to consider alternatives. That is essential for creating successful results. The approach also provides psychological safety in the workplace and an experience of inclusion, which is the most important common denominator for being able to create a good working environment and avoid culture backlash. 
Each chapter contains at least one business case that outlines a relevant issue. It provides insight into how managers and leaders minimize unconscious bias by inviting diversity into organizations and allowing it to unfold both humanly and technologically. 
New perspectives on power in relationships are also included, which have a decisive influence on the possibilities of reducing bias.Written for leaders and managers, BIAS-CONSCIOUS LEADERSHIP is relevant for everyone with management and leadership responsibilities in private and public organizations. It is also useful for supervisors, HR people, lecturers, students, and consultants.
