Sinopse

Lysander Spooner, a prominent American legal theorist and abolitionist, delves into the complexities surrounding poverty in his seminal work, 'The Illegal Causes and Legal Cure of Poverty'. Written in a clear and persuasive style, Spooner examines the root causes of poverty, arguing that government interference and unjust laws perpetuate economic inequality. Drawing on his background as a lawyer, he provides a critical analysis of existing legal frameworks and offers innovative solutions to alleviate poverty. Spooner's work is a thought-provoking treatise that challenges conventional views on poverty and social justice, making it a valuable read for anyone interested in legal reform and economic policy. As a vocal advocate for individual rights and limited government intervention, Spooner's motivation to write this book stems from his belief in the power of legal reform to address systemic issues of poverty and economic inequality. His unique perspective as a legal expert and social critic adds credibility to his arguments, underscoring the urgency of reevaluating existing legal structures to combat poverty. I highly recommend 'The Illegal Causes and Legal Cure of Poverty' to readers seeking a comprehensive analysis of the legal implications of poverty and potential solutions. Spooner's insights offer a fresh perspective on an enduring societal problem, challenging readers to reconsider their assumptions about the relationship between law and poverty.

    “It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.” ~Warren Buffet 
    Crisis manager George Pillari takes the reader through a series of real-life case studies to show us that decision making in tense situations is a skill to be learned and perfected. Different from most business books that talk about recipes for success (improve your habits, be more productive, etc.), Stupidities highlights what you need to avoid in order to be successful. 
    In his foreword to the book, Guy Kawasaki sums it up: 
    “80% of success is avoiding stupidity.” 
    We learn from the success and failures of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Oprah Winfrey, Elizabeth Holmes, Google X, JP Morgan, the New York Yankees, the Titan Sub, Thomas Edison, Taylor Swift, and others. 
    The Seven Deadly Stupidities: 
    Going for the Moonshot 
    Surrendering to FOMO 
    Relying on Family and Friends 
    Being Blinded by the Upside 
    Trusting the Media 
    Using Quick and Dirty Thinking 
    Neglecting to Measure Twice 
    There is the amazing story of Soviet General Petrov, who avoided all seven of the stupidities and prevented a global thermonuclear war. 
    The chapter-by-chapter format lets the reader thumb through and pick the order to read the book. The summary of each stupidity includes lessons learned and advice on how to avoid the stupidity and “be smarter.” 
    We are twice as likely to respond to negative events than positive ones. Pillari uses this behavioral sciences insight to guide the reader through how to learn from the failures of others and become a better decision-maker.

    Learn how frictionless organizations cut costs, grow revenue, and create loyal fans by creating products and services that work so well, their customers never have to contact them for the wrong reasons. 
     
    Many organizations focus so intently on improving the way customers interact with them that they don't ask the more fundamental question of whether the interactions are needed in the first place. Every contact channel adds cost and complexity. And while customers appreciate that they can now call, chat, text, or email to check an order or resolve a problem, they appreciate not having to do anything even more. 
     
    Veteran customer service experts Bill Price and David Jaffe explain how service, support, and sales can be made invisible, reducing costs and providing a better customer experience. Drawing on examples from four continents and over twenty-five countries, they provide a logical and sequential methodology that every reader can follow. 
     
    Reducing contact with customers means proactively focusing on the customer perspective, which is always a good idea. This means organizations need to rethink all aspects of their business, from product and services design to quality and control. It is a whole enterprise initiative, but one with a huge upside.
