Summary

"Circular Economy" presents a transformative vision for shifting from our current "take-make-dispose" economic model to a sustainable, closed-loop system. This comprehensive guide explores how businesses, governments, and individuals can redesign consumption patterns to preserve natural resources while creating economic value.

 
The book builds its argument on three fundamental pillars: eliminating waste through better design, extending material lifespan, and restoring natural systems, demonstrating how these principles can revolutionize various industries and consumption patterns. Through detailed case studies of companies like Philips, Renault, and Interface, the book illustrates practical implementations of circular economy principles across different sectors.

 
It traces the evolution of our linear economy from the Industrial Revolution to present day, presenting compelling data about resource depletion and waste management crises. The text uniquely positions waste as a design flaw rather than an inevitable outcome of economic activity, offering concrete examples of how circular design principles can be applied in electronics, textiles, and construction industries.

 
The book progresses systematically through theoretical foundations, practical implementation strategies, and scaling solutions, while addressing common adoption barriers. Drawing from environmental sciences, economics, and industrial ecology research, it provides actionable insights for business leaders, policymakers, and sustainability professionals.

 
What sets this work apart is its balanced approach, combining academic rigor with accessibility, and its practical framework for implementing circular economy principles across different organizational contexts. Rather than presenting idealistic solutions, it offers evidence-based strategies while acknowledging current technological and regulatory challenges.

    What sets humans apart from other animals? The accumulation of discoveries throughout history, big and small, has enabled us to build global civilizations and gain power to shape our environment. But what makes humans as a species so innovative? 
 
 
 
Min W. Jung offers a new understanding of the neural basis of innovation in terms of humans' exceptional capacity for imagination and high-level abstraction. He provides an engaging account of recent advances in neuroscience that have shed light on the neural underpinnings of these profoundly important abilities. Jung examines key discoveries concerning the hippocampus and neural circuits that have demystified the processes underlying imagination and abstract thinking. He also considers how these capacities might have evolved as well as possible futures for intelligence. 
 
 
 
Bringing together disparate findings in neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, and artificial intelligence, A Brain for Innovation develops a unified perspective on the mechanisms of imagination, abstract thought, and creativity. Presenting cutting-edge neuroscientific research in a way that is accessible to listeners without a background in the subject, this book is essential for anyone interested in the biological basis of one of the most fundamental aspects of human nature.

  • Objectivity & Diversity - Another Logic of Scientific Research - cover

    Objectivity & Diversity -...

    Worries about scientific objectivity seem never-ending. Social critics and philosophers of science have argued that invocations of objectivity are often little more than attempts to boost the status of a claim, while calls for value neutrality may be used to suppress otherwise valid dissenting positions. Objectivity is used sometimes to advance democratic agendas, at other times to block them; sometimes for increasing the growth of knowledge, at others to resist it. Sandra Harding is not ready to throw out objectivity quite yet. For all of its problems, she contends that objectivity is too powerful a concept simply to abandon. In Objectivity and Diversity, Harding calls for a science that is both more epistemically adequate and socially just, a science that would ask: How are the lives of the most economically and politically vulnerable groups affected by a particular piece of research? Do they have a say in whether and how the research is done? Should empirically reliable systems of indigenous knowledge count as "real science"? Ultimately, Harding argues for a shift from the ideal of a neutral, disinterested science to one that prizes fairness and responsibility.
