Book Description

"The Five Degree Principle is like having your own professional coach to improve your career; improve your life. A five degree shift seems so small, but i can produce mind-boggling, monumental results." - Scott Collins, EVP, Advertising Sales, AMC 7 WE tv at AMC Networks "Rarely is a business book a page-turner, but this one is an exception. I found myself ever wanting to know what happens next. Something in each chapter resonated with me." - Anne Jaques, Director, Global Consulting Knowledge Management, Deloitte LLP In coaching Fortune 100 executives, author Shannon Cassidy frequently observed that they intended to make drastic changes overnight. This strategy is a recipe for failure, fueling a new, erroneous belief that realizing these dreams requires a miracle. Cassidy successfully guided them through her effective strategy: that five degree shifts, as opposed to 180-degree turns are the keys to obtaining goals. In The Five Degree Principle, we journey though a compelling fable of struggling executive Lauren and her trusted coach Andrea. Andrea encourages Lauren to use actionable tools and effective, straightforward strategies to take on tough, interpersonal challenges, both at home and in her workplace, and creatively rewrite her life story. Together the two demonstrate the efficacy of making change in small increments, rather than in leaps and bounds. The five Degree Principle shows how to follow a step-by-step path to progress and substantive change. "In the Five Degree Principle, Ms. Cassidy shows us how to make incremental, small adjustments to our attitudes and thinking that provide a clearing; a thoughtful breathing space for us to powerfully, confidently move ahead in our lives with ease, one small but significant and sustainable step at a time. This little book will resonate with me for a long time." - Jacqueline M. Welch, SVP, Human Resources, Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.

Local Activity Principle: The Cause Of Complexity And Symmetry Breaking

Book Description

The principle of local activity explains the emergence of complex patterns in a homogeneous medium. At first defined in the theory of nonlinear electronic circuits in a mathematically rigorous way, it can be generalized and proven at least for the class of nonlinear reaction-diffusion systems in physics, chemistry, biology, and brain research. Recently, it was realized by memristors for nanoelectronic device applications. In general, the emergence of complex patterns and structures is explained by symmetry breaking in homogeneous media, which is caused by local activity. This book argues that the principle of local activity is really fundamental in science, and can even be identified in quantum cosmology as symmetry breaking of local gauge symmetries generating the complexity of matter and forces in our universe. Applications are considered in economic, financial, and social systems with the emergence of equilibrium states, symmetry breaking at critical points of phase transitions and risky acting at the edge of chaos./a

Book Description

"A departure at right angles to thinking in the modern Western world. An important, original work, that should get the widest possible hearing" (Iain McGilchrist, author of The Master and his Emissary) Middle Way Philosophy is not about compromise, but about the avoidance of dogma and the integration of conflicting assumptions. To rely on experience as our guide, we need to avoid the interpretation of experience through unnecessary dogmas. Drawing on a range of influences in Buddhist practice, Western philosophy and psychology, Middle Way Philosophy questions alike the assumptions of scientific naturalism, religious revelation and political absolutism, trying to separate what addresses experience in these doctrines from what is merely assumed. This Omnibus edition of Middle Way Philosophy includes all four of the volumes previously published separately: 1. The Path of Objectivity, 2. The Integration of Desire, 3. The Integration of Meaning, and 4. The Integration of Belief.



Reality and Negation - Kant's Principle of Anticipations of Perception

Book Description

Kant, in the Critique of pure reason, only dedicates a few pages to the principle of Anticipations of Perception and only a few critical studies are outspokenly dedicated to this issue in recent critical literature. But if one considers the history of post-Kantian philosophy, one can immediately perceive the great importance of the new definition of the relationship between reality and negation, which Kant’s principle proposes. Critical philosophy is here radically opposed to the pre-critical metaphysical tradition: "Reality" no longer appears as absolutely positive being, which excludes all negativity from itself, and "negation" is not reduced to being a simple removal, the mere absence of being. Instead, reality and negation behave as an equally positive something in respect to one another such that negation is itself a reality that is actively opposed to another reality. Such a definition of the relation between reality and negation became indispensible for post-Kantian Philosophy and represents a central aspect of Kantian-inspired philosophy in respect to Leibnizian metaphysics. The present work therefore departs from the hypothesis that the essential philosophical importance of the Anticipations of Perception can only be fully measured by exploring its impact in the Post-Kantian debate.
