Synopsis

Museum Policies explores the critical legal and ethical guidelines that shape museum operations, ensuring these institutions responsibly preserve cultural heritage and effectively serve their communities. Museums, once shaped by individual collectors, now operate under increasing scrutiny, especially concerning artifact repatriation. The book highlights how well-defined policies build trust and ensure long-term sustainability. This academic yet accessible text examines core principles, from acquisition and provenance research—navigating contested histories—to responsibilities concerning accessibility and interpretation. It emphasizes the importance of provenance research to ensure ethical acquisition practices. Further, it considers the governance structures underpinning ethical decision-making. The book first establishes foundational principles, then progresses through specific areas like acquisition, collections management, public engagement, and governance. By providing concrete examples and addressing emerging challenges like digital collecting, Museum Policies offers practical guidance for museum professionals and students navigating the complex world of museum ethics and accountability.

    Without consciousness there is nothing. Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist, and whether there might be an afterlife experience awaiting you after our physical bodies die? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God. 
     
     
     
    A reason for a universal consciousness to do such a thing could be to experience and evolve itself through the free will actions of its offspring. This would entail thinking into existence a virtual universe so as to interact with such a universe and each other. Literally everything is consciousness in action, resulting in a gigantic cosmic simulation. We and other creatures are offspring of this God consciousness. 
     
     
     
    The Miracle of Our Universe explores the forefront of science and spirituality research, including: Are near-death experiences real? What is the Zero-Point Field? What kind of being could God be? Is there some place that God could have come from? How does the Big Bang figure into this? Is there an afterlife and what could it be like? What is the purpose of life? Is consciousness all there is? Is the Universe a virtual reality? Why is Hell impossible?

    Singer-songwriter. Trailblazer. Mastermind. The Beatles of her generation. From her genre-busting rise in country music as a teenager to the economic juggernaut that is the Eras Tour, Taylor Swift has blazed a path that is uniquely hers. But how exactly has she managed to scale her success—multiple times—while dominating an industry that cycles through artists and stars like fashion trends? How has she managed to make and remake herself time and again while remaining true to her artistic vision? And how has she managed to master the constant disruption in the music business that has made it so hard for others to adapt and endure? 
     
     
     
    In There's Nothing Like This, Kevin Evers, a senior editor at Harvard Business Review, answers these questions in riveting detail. With the same thoughtful analysis usually devoted to iconic founders, game-changing innovators, and pioneering brands, Evers chronicles the business and creative decisions that have defined each phase of Swift's career. 
     
     
     
    Mixing business and art, analysis and narrative, and pulling from research in innovation, creativity, psychology, and strategy, There's Nothing Like This presents Swift as the modern and multidimensional superstar that she is—a songwriting savant and a strategic genius.
