Book Description
Forget about a world where colouring books are for kids. Times have changed. Whether at home or at work, our busy lives are dominated by computer screens, stress and overflowing calendars. We seem to have lost the ability to relax and engage. Enter the adult colouring book, where the meditative and mindful act of staying inside the lines allows us to slip into a rhythmic, relaxed state-of-mind. Whether undertaken as a solo enterprise, or shared with family, the new world of colouring for grown-ups will feed the needs of the budding artist and dissolve the stress of your worst day. Artist Bobbi Pike is renowned for her vivid and symbolic art pieces. She pours her creativity onto paper and canvas, creating an homage to 'The Rock' in every work. In The Colours of Newfoundland and Labrador, Pike has altered her famous style to allow her audience to re-imagine the colours of this artful province. With her black-and-white sketches, she invites us into the coves, communities and small moments of daily Newfoundland life, allowing us to interpret her beautiful images using all the colours of the rainbow. Pike's original pieces are in demand around the world. But in The Colours of Newfoundland and Labrador, she brings the inner artist in all of us "home," to enjoy the vibrant, limitless creativity of this magical region.

The Difference
Author: Scott E. Page
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400830281
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
In this landmark book, Scott Page redefines the way we understand ourselves in relation to one another. The Difference is about how we think in groups--and how our collective wisdom exceeds the sum of its parts. Why can teams of people find better solutions than brilliant individuals working alone? And why are the best group decisions and predictions those that draw upon the very qualities that make each of us unique? The answers lie in diversity--not what we look like outside, but what we look like within, our distinct tools and abilities. The Difference reveals that progress and innovation may depend less on lone thinkers with enormous IQs than on diverse people working together and capitalizing on their individuality. Page shows how groups that display a range of perspectives outperform groups of like-minded experts. Diversity yields superior outcomes, and Page proves it using his own cutting-edge research. Moving beyond the politics that cloud standard debates about diversity, he explains why difference beats out homogeneity, whether you're talking about citizens in a democracy or scientists in the laboratory. He examines practical ways to apply diversity's logic to a host of problems, and along the way offers fascinating and surprising examples, from the redesign of the Chicago "El" to the truth about where we store our ketchup. Page changes the way we understand diversity--how to harness its untapped potential, how to understand and avoid its traps, and how we can leverage our differences for the benefit of all.
