Fallibility at Work
This book is published open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book addresses how organizations can deal with human fallibility in order to create space for excellence at work. Some mistakes in work settings put lives at risk, while others create openings for innovative breakthroughs. In order to deal constructively with fallibility, an organization needs a communication climate where it is normal to voice opinions, admit mistakes, and ask for help in critical situations. The book builds on interviews with practitioners in healthcare, aviation, IT, public governance, and industry. It connects narratives from these fields with theories from organizational psychology and philosophy, as well as from positive organizational scholarship. In the final chapter, an overall ethics of fallibility at work is outlined. Fallibility at Work contributes to research in multiple academic disciplines, but also reaches out to practitioners who are interested in the connections between error and excellence in organizations.
Nacho Carbonell
This colourful, tactile, and expressive volume presents a richly illustrated overview of seven years of work by Nacho Carbonell, since his graduation from the Eindhoven Design Academy in 2007. The designer's creative identity, which defines his style of organic forms and rough, colourful finishing textures, has attracted international attention from museums, galleries, and private collectors alike. Applying a highly recognisable uniqueness of materials and techniques in his studio, Carbonell's enthusiasm and curiosity is moulded through an endless series of experiments, discoveries, and inevitable mistakes, all documented in this anthology of pure wonderment.
Jean-Michel Frank

The New Coastal History
This book provides a pathway for the New Coastal History. Our littorals are all too often the setting for climate change and the political, refugee and migration crises that blight our age. Yet historians have continued, in large part, to ignore the space between the sea and the land. Through a range of conceptual and thematic chapters, this book remedies that. Scotland, a country where one is never more than fifty miles from saltwater, provides a platform as regards the majority of chapters, in accounting for and supporting the clusters of scholarship that have begun to gather around the coast. The book presents a new approach that is distinct from both terrestrial and maritime history, and which helps bring environmental history to the shore. Its cross-disciplinary perspectives will be of appeal to scholars and students in those fields, as well as in the environmental humanities, coastal archaeology, human geography and anthropology.
