Sinopsis

"Ice Fish Advance" explores the profound impact of modern technology on the Yupik people's traditional fishing practices in Alaska, examining how these technological advancements have reshaped their fish trade and economic landscape. The book highlights the Yupik's adoption of advanced fishing gear, such as sophisticated nets and boats, while also navigating the complexities of cultural preservation amidst globalization. 

 
A key insight is how increased market access, while economically beneficial, has led to altered trade relationships and evolving business models within the Yupik community. The book contrasts traditional Yupik fishing methods, deeply rooted in subsistence and cultural identity, with their increasing integration into global market systems. 

 
It emphasizes that while modern fishing gear presents economic opportunities, it also introduces challenges related to sustainability and equitable resource distribution. The narrative unfolds by first introducing the historical context, then analyzing the economic impacts, and finally examining the long-term implications for Yupik culture and resource management. 

 
This approach provides a nuanced perspective on modernization within indigenous communities, making it valuable for understanding indigenous adaptation in the face of technological disruption.

Stick with It - A Scientifically...

Sean D. Young

An award-winning psychologist and director of the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior shows everyone how to make real, lasting change in their lives in this exciting work of popular psychology that goes beyond The Power of Habit with science and practical strategies that can alter their problem behaviors—forever.
Whether it’s absent-minded mistakes at work, a weakness for junk food, a smart phone addiction, or a lack of exercise, everyone has some bad habit or behavior that they’d like to change. But wanting to change and actually doing it—and sticking with it—are two very different things.
Dr. Sean Young, an authoritative new voice in the field of behavioral science, knows a great deal about our habits—how we make them and how we can break them. Stick with It is his fascinating look at the science of behavior, filled with crucial knowledge and practical advice to help everyone successfully alter their actions and improve their lives.
As Dr. Young explains, you don’t change behavior by changing the person, you do it by changing the process. Drawing on his own scientific research and that of other leading experts in the field, he explains why change can be difficult and identifies the crucial forces that combine to make transformation permanent, from the right way to create new habits to how to harness emotional meaning to motivate change. He also helps us understand how the mind often interferes with creating lasting change and how we can outsmart it, including using ""neurohacks"" to shortcut the brain’s counterproductive instincts. In addition he provides a powerful corrective to the decades old science of habits, offering a next generation discussion of how habits can change behavior with the right approach.
Packed with pragmatic exercises and stories of real people who have used them successfully, Stick with It shows that it is possible to control spending, stick to a diet, become more social, exercise regularly, stop compulsively checking e-mail, and overcome problem behaviors—forever.
