Book Description
"A book-length interview of Dr. Yosihiko Sinoto by Hiroshi Aramata. In the interview, Dr. Sinoto tells of unearthing the only ancient voyaging canoe found in Polynesia--one of his greatest accomplishments--and exploring some of the most remote islands and coral atolls of the Pacific. He also describes his efforts to conserve and preserve sites and structures for the benefit of future generations. Many people have now come to regard the voyages of the early Polynesians as among the great achievements in human history, thanks in part to his work. For such decades-long efforts, Dr. Sinoto has received numerous awards and been named a living treasure of Hawaiʻi. Curve of the Hook was originally published in Japanese as Rakuen Kōkogaku (Archaeology in Paradise). In 1996, the book received the Yoshikawa Eiji Cultural Award, and in 1999, it was selected as one of the best 100 biographies of a Japanese in the twentieth century."--Publisher's Web site.

Hooked
Author: Nir Eyal
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0698190661
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Revised and Updated, Featuring a New Case Study How do successful companies create products people can’t put down? Why do some products capture widespread attention while others flop? What makes us engage with certain products out of sheer habit? Is there a pattern underlying how technologies hook us? Nir Eyal answers these questions (and many more) by explaining the Hook Model—a four-step process embedded into the products of many successful companies to subtly encourage customer behavior. Through consecutive “hook cycles,” these products reach their ultimate goal of bringing users back again and again without depending on costly advertising or aggressive messaging. Hooked is based on Eyal’s years of research, consulting, and practical experience. He wrote the book he wished had been available to him as a start-up founder—not abstract theory, but a how-to guide for building better products. Hooked is written for product managers, designers, marketers, start-up founders, and anyone who seeks to understand how products influence our behavior. Eyal provides readers with: • Practical insights to create user habits that stick. • Actionable steps for building products people love. • Fascinating examples from the iPhone to Twitter, Pinterest to the Bible App, and many other habit-forming products.
