The Wisdom Years
The Wisdom Years is a practical, thought-provoking and life-changing read that reveals how we can reframe our mindset so that we live life based on our 'functional age' rather than our 'chronological age'. Be inspired by the message that life after retirement is to be enjoyed as a new, exciting and uplifting journey of personal evolution.
The Wisdom Years
We are now experiencing one of the most significant - but not yet fully understood - revolutions in human life: the dramatic rise in life expectancy. This revolution does not imply, as most people usually think, that we've simply got more years of old age. Rather, it implies the formation of a new period in human life: the Age of Wisdom. When Dr Zvi Lanir reached retirement age, he was ready to admit that he was no longer young, but he did not feel old at all. The Wisdom Years is the product of Lanir investigating this 'hidden age' and finding out how to make the most of it. People who are able to prepare themselves for this new age will be able to enjoy an active, wise and satisfying stage ...
The Culture of Military Innovation
This book studies the impact of cultural factors on the course of military innovations. One would expect that countries accustomed to similar technologies would undergo analogous changes in their perception of and approach to warfare. However, the intellectual history of the Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) in Russia, the US, and Israel indicates the opposite. The US developed technology and weaponry for about a decade without reconceptualizing the existing paradigm about the nature of warfare. Soviet 'new theory of victory' represented a conceptualization which chronologically preceded technological procurement. Israel was the first to utilize the weaponry on the battlefield, but was th...

Trapped in the Net
Voice mail. E-mail. Bar codes. Desktops. Laptops. Networks. The Web. In this exciting book, Gene Rochlin takes a closer look at how these familiar and pervasive productions of computerization have become embedded in all our lives, forcing us to narrow the scope of our choices, our modes of control, and our experiences with the real world. Drawing on fascinating narratives from fields that range from military command, air traffic control, and international fund transfers to library cataloging and supermarket checkouts, Rochlin shows that we are rapidly making irreversible and at times harmful changes in our business, social, and personal lives to comply with the formalities and restrictions o...
The Power of Collaboration
The future of human society depends on us. The only way to secure our children’s future is by Collaboration and trust. This world can be a better place for us and for all, and this is the main challenge and mission of leaders from all sectors and nations. This book is based on a new paradigm which can create the change we need. It reveals how to understand, analyze, create and improve all forms of Collaborations, with one central and powerful roadmap. Demonstrated by many examples from organizations, and based on a unique and innovated model, Gefen defines the "Architecture of Collaboration". He attempts to create a shared language – simple, structured and efficient – for one of the mo...
