"Do You Know C.P.R..?" This book offers a straight talk approach to Cultivating Professional Relationships in the 21st Century Workplace, while allowing readers the ability to take time and "enjoy" reading in this fast paced and busy life we live. Everything we do in life requires a safety net for support. With all sorts of support systems we carry around as excess baggage, it is a vivid reminder of our human frailty and the need for support from others. Since the workplace is where we spend the most waking hours of our day, it is the one place where we should be protected from the "what if's" in life, and that is the one most critical area of our lives that we often fail to provide a support network for ourselves in. Find out how cultivating a C.P.R. Network can always help you be at the top of your game from where you stand in "your" workplace
Does living in a globally networked society mean that we are moving toward a single, homogenous world culture? Or, are we headed for clashes between center and periphery, imperial and subaltern, Western and non-Western, First and Third World? The interdisciplinary essays in Beyond Globalization present us with another possibility-that new media will lead to new kinds of "worldmaking." This provocative volume brings together the best new work of scholars within such diverse fields as history, sociology, anthropology, film, media studies, and art. Whether examining the inauguration of a virtual community on the website Second Life or investigating the appropriation of biotechnology for transgenic art, this collection highlights how mediated practices have become integral to global culture; how social practices have emerged out of computer-related industries; how contemporary apocalyptic narratives reflect the anxieties of a U.S. culture facing global challenges; and how design, play, and technology help us understand the histories and ideals behind the digital architectures that mediate our everyday actions.
