Sinossi

QWERTY vs Dvorak explores the curious case of the QWERTY keyboard, a layout designed to prevent typewriter jams that has stubbornly persisted despite the emergence of more efficient alternatives like the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard. This book examines why QWERTY remains the standard, even though studies suggest Dvorak allows for faster typing speeds and reduced error rates. It delves into the history and technical aspects of both layouts, considering factors like ergonomics and human-computer interaction. The central argument highlights path dependency, illustrating how an initial advantage can lock in a technology, regardless of later innovations. Network effects and switching costs play significant roles in QWERTY's continued dominance. The book unfolds by first exploring the history of typewriters and the QWERTY layout, then compares QWERTY and Dvorak in detail, considering ergonomic factors and relevant research. Finally, it analyzes the broader implications of path dependency for technology standards and innovation. This approach offers a unique perspective on the barriers to adopting potentially superior technologies.

    Horses are valuable teachers and healers, and give us powerful lessons in how to be effective leaders. In this 2022 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Carolyn Resnick reveals the secrets of how a horse gains and maintains its leadership of a herd of wild horses. What makes a good leader in a stallion of a herd of wild horses can be used for human leadership as well: it does not lead by coercion or waging battles, but creates unity, harmony, and respect including the personal space of others.  
    Carolyn Resnick is the founder of The Resnick Method of Horsemanship and offers many online courses, clinics, retreats, and certification opportunities that create a magical connection with horses using rituals that are innate to the horse. She is a master horse communicator who grew up with horses and spent three summers of her childhood gradually becoming accepted into a community of wild horses, culminating in her ability to ride a lead mare bareback and without a bridle. She is the author of Naked Liberty: Memoirs of My Childhood, Guided by Passion, Educated by Wild Horses (Amigo Publications, Inc. 2005).

    Ditch the devices and bring back the magic of being a kid    
     Screens are everywhere. Children spend an average of 7.5 hours on digital devices every day with profoundly negative consequences. While some tech may “amplify” real life experience (online music lessons or Zoom calls with faraway family, for example), the vast majority “amputates” by limiting physical activity, creating anxiety, or damaging self-esteem.  Childhood Unplugged  takes a bold approach to creating healthy boundaries around the use of digital media, suggesting kids should be offline for the majority of their time.   
     Drawing on her own family’s experience, plus interviews with digital minimalists, educators, and child development experts, author Katherine Martinko presents:    Meticulously researched analysis of the impacts of excessive screen time on children's physical, neurological, emotional, and social development   Specific pathways to reduced screen exposure, naturally leading to more time spent outdoors, increased confidence and empathy, more creative and active play, and other benefits   Inspiration for caregivers overwhelmed by the thought of severing ties with the digital babysitter   Age-appropriate advice for fundamental change, with specific sections for babies and toddlers, school-aged children, and adolescents.    
     Taking a calming, nonjudgmental approach,  Childhood Unplugged  is a lifeline for parents, caregivers, educators, and anyone who questions the role of digital media and yearns for the young people in their life to experience the profound beauty and magic of childhood.
