What We Know Now!

Jenny Kelly, Mairead Ronan

Sinopse

Across twenty years of friendship, Jenny Kelly and Mairéad Ronan have experienced single life, marriages, divorce, motherhood, career dilemmas, grief, diets, dodgy hairstyles, stress, ageing, bad times and good times too.
Here, along with their well-earned wisdom about the serious (and sometimes funny) business of life, they share their thoughts on how to navigate grown-up friendships, what it means to be in a relationship, and how to stop worrying about having it all and start figuring out what it is you actually want!
You'll also discover essential truths, like why you will never have Pocahontas hair (and why that's okay), why there's no greater joy than a deep clean with your favourite spray mop (just Jenny?), and how staring at trees can make you happier than owning a Mulberry handbag.
What We Know Now doesn't claim to solve all your problems, but it will provide good company, give you a laugh, and help you feel less alone through the unavoidable ups and downs of life.
'Down-to-earth, practical advice with a great sense of humour.' Miriam O'Callaghan
'A book about real life – the lovely parts and the messy parts. Reading it is like having a cup of tea with a good friend.' Derval O'Rourke

The Impact of Technology on...

Craig Dames

Technology has long been a driving force in shaping the nature of employment. From the Industrial Revolution to the digital age, advancements in technology have continuously altered the way people work, the skills required, and the overall structure of industries. In today's fast-evolving world, the relationship between technology and employment is more complex than ever. While technological progress brings efficiency, innovation, and new job opportunities, it also presents significant challenges such as job displacement, skill gaps, and the need for constant adaptation. Understanding this dynamic is crucial for individuals, businesses, and policymakers as they navigate the ever-changing landscape of work.
The evolution of technology in the workforce has been marked by transformative shifts that redefine how labor is performed. Historically, the introduction of machines, automation, and digital tools has led to the replacement of certain manual and repetitive tasks. However, rather than eliminating jobs entirely, these changes have often resulted in the creation of new roles that require different skill sets. For example, while the rise of automated assembly lines reduced the need for traditional factory workers, it also increased demand for engineers, technicians, and software developers to maintain and improve these systems. Similarly, the widespread adoption of computers and the internet revolutionized industries by enabling remote work, e-commerce, and data-driven decision-making, further expanding employment opportunities in the digital sector.

CRITICAL THINKING - Think...

Phil Barton

Life skills are those skills that enable individuals to effectively face the demands and challenges of daily life. 
Among these, critical thinking is one of the fundamental requisites for the emancipation and participation in the social life of every human being.  
 But what do we actually mean when we talk about critical thinking? Is it possible to think of building tools for the development and evaluation of critical thinking?  
The volume intends to answer these questions through theoretical and operational material. This is a hands-on book focused on developing your intelligence and critical thinking skills to make decisions. This is not an abstract story about thinking and I assure you that after reading it you will not be the same person who is reading these words.  
With the critical thinking tools and strategies that I will teach you in this book, you will learn not to be deceived by cunning techniques of argumentation, to be sane, to strive to understand and appreciate the points of view of others, to analyze the reasoning with which you do not necessarily agree and change your points of view when you are faced with a better reasoning.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"Prince of Thorns" by Mark Lawrence follows the journey of Jorg Ancrath, a young prince who evolves into a ruthless leader in a morally ambiguous world. The narrative explores themes of power, revenge, and the corrupting nature of violence. After experiencing trauma, Jorg seeks to assert his dominance and reclaim what he feels is his by any means necessary. The book depicts a world filled with political intrigue, where loyalty is conditional, and family bonds are often broken. Jorg’s actions showcase his capacity for both strategic planning and extreme violence, and the story questions how far a man will go to achieve his goals. The inclusion of elements from science fiction and the supernatural, like ancient technology and a mystical spirit, add further layers of complexity.
