O trabalho explora os significados do trabalho informacional. Partindo do estatuto conquistado pelo trabalho na sociedade salarial, como fator de identificação pessoal e de coesão social, são analisadas as transformações observadas no mercado laboral e na economia mundial. As metamorfoses são percebidas a partir do prisma da reestruturação produtiva e da consequente precarização laboral. A revolução das tecnologias da informação e comunicação é tratada a partir da convergência entre os campos da microeletrônica, da computação e das telecomunicações. A grande produtividade da indústria da informação e comunicação divide os analistas entre a tese do informacionalismo ou capitalismo cognitivo e a tese da degradação do trabalho informacional. O conceito de trabalho imaterial é analisado sob a perspectiva de ameaça à validade dos conceitos da economia política tradicional, uma vez que nesse contexto não é mais possível valorar unidades de produto a partir de unidades de tempo. O trabalho imaterial, vivo e colaborativo em sua definição, apontaria para a superação da degradação do trabalho e para o surgimento de uma economia da...

Instead of writing a dry text book explaining his work, he has put the information into story form about a young man named Liam, who is trying to find meaning in his life - he feels caught in an endless cycle where depression and alcohol are holding him back and creating despair. When he meets Luca he learns the cause of his miseries - the instinctual habit that has kept him from taking control over his life.

Getting Started Congratulations on your courage to open this book! No matter when you were diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and/or Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), you’ll find remarkable information within these pages. You can use it to start feeling better today – as I have done. Not sure you have PTSD or DID? Please read this entire chapter. It has definitions for PTSD/DID – and much more. Then decide if you’d like to read further. If you don’t have PTSD or DID but survived or witnessed a trauma (serious illness, violence, significant loss, etc.), you’re welcome here, too. This book is geared to assist anyone with the aftershocks of surviving or witnessing trauma - whether the person has diagnostic labels or not. If you’re a person of color or in an oppressed group, (gay, non-Christian, etc.), this book can be valuable. Even if your group’s most obvious oppression occurred generations before you were born, that oppression can traumatize you. For example, Drs. Eduardo and Bonnie Duran investigated “multi-generational PTSD” affecting present-day Native Americans that originates from the g...

The object is this book is to provide you with the motivation you need to completely eradicate every last vestige of pornography usage from your life. What you’re about to embark on is not an easy undertaking. Porn is not a game. Porn is an evil, lethal enemy to be battled relentlessly and ruthlessly until it’s completely exterminated. This is not a walk in the park: it’s WAR! In Porn Escape: Confidently Walk Free from the Prison of Pornography, I presented a practical program to help people break free from the porn habit. The book includes dozens of tips, based on the latest scientific research into willpower and self-control. I’m convinced that these methods work — if people will only use them. Yet, not everyone is ready to do that. As I’ll explain later in this book, some people need help to move beyond contemplation and begin taking action. The fact is, you’re not going to get anywhere in your fight against pornography unless your mind is resolutely made up to do so. You have got to be 100% committed. If you aren’t, you’ll fail and you’ll watch porn until you die. The relaxed mentality that got you into watching porn wo...

Your self-absorbed partner may be gas-lighting and manipulating you. He may cycle between love-bombing and distancing himself from you. He seems to be a nice guy to your face sometimes, but then you find out that he is talking bad about you to others. He seems to triangulate you with other women or family members in order to make you jealous and boost his own ego. Does he talk you in circles when you confront him about his whereabouts when he is running late? Does he tell you that you are being ‘too clingy’, ‘too emotional’, and ‘too needy’ when you say that you want to spend time together? Does he get defensive when you want to move the relationship forward in any way? Does he balk at anything resembling maturity and commitment? Does he isolate you from friends and family so that he has the opportunity to win everyone over to his side? Does he stop you from having any independence because he is afraid that you will leave him if you had some moral support? Is his self-esteem wavering to the point where he thinks that you might get smart if you talk to others? Does he fear you ‘figuring out’ what he is up to, especially if other ...

On Success: What does it mean to have a successful life? A successful life is where you become happy with your current situation and are proud of the decisions that got you there. If a certain aspect of your life is exactly where you want it to be, then you have succeeded. Everyone has an image, or a set of standards, in their mind on how their lives should be. In other words, you have an image on how your body should look or how your career should look. When you don’t meet that standard, you’re not happy and you don’t see yourself as successful. When you’re unhappy with your weight, it’s because your weight doesn’t match how you think your weight should be. When you’re unhappy with your income, it’s because you’re not making as much as you feel you should be making....

Most people are scared by the idea of dying and/or are confused about the destiny of their dear ones that may have recently passed beyond: What happens after death? Is passing over dreadful? Do we lose our relatives forever? Death is covered by mystery in common knowledge. We often hear that "nobody returned to tell us what there is beyond". Fortunately, this is not true: today we have plenty of information derived from different sources, to shed a lot of light on this subject. These sources are: Deathbed observation: accounts by people that are about to die and report visions in their last minutes NDE = Near Death Experiences: reports from people who were pronounced dead, but were then resuscitated Regressions: experiences of people who underwent hypnotic regressions and saw some of their past lives, including sometimes the moments of their deaths and births Inspired messages: writings by sensitive people, that were dictated by disincarnated entities, that report details of the worlds and life in the upper worlds Visions and OBE = Out of Body Experiences: reports by se...

The grand harvest of testimony and dossiers of studies about death does no longer leave any doubt about passing, while the reports of sensitives offer many interesting illustrations about life in the beyond. Today we have plenty of information derived from different sources, to shed a lot of light on this subject. Those who love and assist a dying person should avoid any dramatic behaviour, that can produce attachment to the subject: this would make him more difficult to die in peace and to pass to the higher planes. Sorrow for death is only for those that remain, missing their dear ones. The information presented in this book, beyond offering a new perspective of death and birth, propose also a different and wider vision of life, in all its phases and evolutions, giving it a breath of unparalleled greatness, on a basis not just fideistic, but experiential....

Over the years, I've been a bouncing board for so many people, have deeply thought about my own life and and why we do the things we do.

Propaganda, an influential book written by Edward L. Bernays in 1928, incorporated the literature from social science and psychological manipulation into an examination of the techniques of public communication. Bernays wrote the book in response to the success of some of his earlier works such as Crystallizing Public Opinion (1923) and A Public Relations Counsel (1927). Propaganda explored the psychology behind manipulating masses and the ability to use symbolic action and propaganda to influence politics, effect social change, and lobby for gender and racial equality. Walter Lippman was Bernays’ unacknowledged American mentor and his work The Phantom Public greatly influenced the ideas expressed in Propaganda a year later. The work propelled Bernays into media historians’ view of him as the “father of public relations.” (Wikipedia)...
