Historia
Some Americans cling desperately to the myth that we are living in a post-racial society, that the election of the first Black president spelled the doom of racism. In fact, racist thought is alive and well in America - more sophisticated and more insidious than ever. And as award-winning historian Ibram X. Kendi argues in Stamped from the Beginning, if we have any hope of grappling with this stark reality, we must first understand how racist ideas were developed, disseminated, and enshrined in American society.

Solid but not unlike the others
Revisado: 05-13-21
I really like the discipline that this book takes to doing one thing well instead of twenty things poorly. It's a philosophy I've always shared but the author does go a little overboard at times in his language. Many of the things he says are in extremes. "This is a lie" "that is a lie" "always this" "never this". I will probably think about this book a lot in my own productivity but you do walk away from the book feeling like the only way to success is in business

Historia
In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings. Beautifully written, original, and revealing, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is an eye-opening story of people and history, and a reexamination of what lies under the surface of ordinary lives and of American life today.

Best book on race ever
Revisado: 05-07-21
this book was a pleasant surprise. Everyone I know had been reading or listening to it and said it was powerful and it did not disappoint. The sheer magnitude of examples and Analysis and stories helps to transform The Listener to understand a new way of how we all relate to each other outside of traditionally seeing only race

Historia
Professional journalist and amateur drinker Bianca Bosker didn’t know much about wine - until she discovered an alternate universe where taste reigns supreme, a world of elite sommeliers who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of flavor. Astounded by their fervor and seemingly superhuman sensory powers, she set out to uncover what drove their obsession and whether she, too, could become a “cork dork”.

This book is excellent because it uses practical, real life examples of how to improve your communication instead of broad platitudes that we've all heard before. Authenticity matters. Empathy matters. Blotky offers practical and easy-to-remember devices for gut checking your approach. Even experienced pros can refresh their skills with this book

Excellent narrative
Revisado: 12-28-18
When you look past the headlines and the podium there are stories of people who quietly and without attention make our government function. this book is an excellent opportunity for those who helped shape policy and reaction to Global events in the United States to tell their story.

Historia
Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Historia
Around the world, populist movements are gaining traction among the white working class. Meanwhile, members of the professional elite - journalists, managers, and establishment politicians - are on the outside looking in, left to argue over the reasons. Williams explains that many people have conflated "working class" with "poor" - but the working class is, in fact, the elusive, purportedly disappearing middle class. They often resent the poor and the professionals alike. But they don't resent the truly rich.

it is very tempting to be a progressive political leader and write off concerns of Americans whom you believed to be backwards. But this book shows that a slight shift in perspective is all you need to understand the plight of working-class Americans who have very shared interests in the future America
