Zen and the Art of Business Communication: A Step-by-Step Guide to Improving Your Business Writing Skills
In today's technology-driven world, business professionals increasingly find that who they are and how far they can go in their careers depends on their written image. Yet many of these same professionals find that their ability to communicate in writing lags far behind their abilities in other areas, even if they have a good undergraduate degree. Whether they never learned to write well or have forgotten some of the basic rules, or even never thought to apply simple writing concepts to their professional work, the result is the same: they find they need improvement, but don't know where to turn to get guidance to do so; and they need relief from the frustration of not being able to communicate as well as they would like to.This book aims to help in both areas. By combining the simplicity of Zen with the simplicity of the rules of good writing, it presents step-by-step guidance for improving one's business writing as well as improving one's stress level. Presented in a practical approach with exercises and applications, this book can be used, one lesson at a time, to lead the reader to the ideal of a clear, calm, competent, and professional written business image.

Creative and innovative virtual learning environments (VLEs) have emerged, and instructors ...
Strokes of Luck

Equality and Opportunity

Interpreting Human Rights
Kolliniati’s groundbreaking book, Interpreting Human Rights: Narratives from Asylum Centers in Greece and Philosophical Values, challenges the notion that the interpretation and application of human rights primarily occur within the corridors of power in Strasbourg or official European institutions. It argues that such interpretation takes place in the grassroots settings of rural areas and neighborhoods, by actors who do not belong to the class of decision‐making elites. Focusing on the Aegean islands as exemplary sites of the European refugee crisis, this book draws on research conducted among local actors, including mayors, municipal councilors, representatives of NGOs and staff at re...
Responsible Belief
This book develops and defends a theory of responsible belief. The author argues that we lack control over our beliefs, but that we can nonetheless influence them. It is because we have intellectual obligations to influence our beliefs that we are responsible for them.
