Smart Product Breakthroughs Depend on Customer Control
Smart products like robotic vacuums and smart speakers have become common in many households. However, although consumers value the convenience and time savings smart products offer, the accompanying feeling that they’ve relinquished some control to a machine is inhibiting the products’ broader adoption and customer satisfaction. Based on their research, the authors recommend ways that smart-product companies can increase consumers’ sense of control and autonomy when using smart technology.

The Impact of the Roman Empire on Landscapes
This volume presents the results of the fourteenth workshop of the international network 'Impact of Empire'. It focuses on the ways in which Rome's dominance influenced, changed, and created landscapes, and examines in which ways (Roman) landscapes were narrated and semantically represented. To assess the impact of Rome on landscapes, some of the twenty contributions in this volume analyse functions and implications of newly created infrastructure. Others focus on the consequences of colonisation processes, settlement structures, regional divisions, and legal qualifications of land. Lastly, some contributions consider written and pictorial representations and their effects. In doing so, the volume offers new insights into the notion of ‘Roman landscapes’ and examines their significance for the functioning of the Roman empire.
Imagineering
Für einen utopischen Realismus: Wie Zukunft gedacht und gemacht wird Wir genießen heute einen zivilisatorischen Standard in Sachen Freiheit, Sicherheit, Gesundheit und Wohlstand, der historisch unvergleichlich ist. Aber der materielle Stoffwechsel, auf dem dieser Fortschritt beruht, ist im 21. Jahrhundert nicht fortsetzbar, da er für alles und alle – das Erdsystem, das Klima, die Menschen – zu zerstörerisch ist. Jörg Metelmann und Harald Welzer versammeln Beiträge aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen, die allesamt verdeutlichen: Ein Pfadwechsel in Politik und Alltag ist gefragt!

Surrealism in Paris
"Surrealism arose during the period between the two World Wars and became one of the most influential artistic and literary movements of the twentieth century. Profoundly marked by the senseless experiences of World War I, the Surrealists, under the leadership of André Breton, took off "on a passionate search for freedom in all of its forms." By incorporating the subconscious into the creative process, they developed completely new forms of expression. Simultaneously, they invented radically new ways of exhibiting their art. This presentational tradition is carried on in both private collections and public museums to this day. Featuring exemplary works by prominent Surrealists, from Salvador Dalí, Max Ernst, and Joan Miró to René Magritte, Yves Tanguy, and Meret Oppenheim, the reader will experience characteristically Surrealist modi operandi as well as Surrealist strategies. It is not only contemporary artists who find sources of inspiration and contemporary references in Surrealism."--PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION.
