    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisIlluminates the construction of national memory from a comparative, cross-case perspective. This book emphasizes that memory itself has a history: not only do particular meanings change, but the very faculty of memory - its place in social relations and the forms it takes-varies over time.Trade Review“An old Yugoslav aphorism goes: ‘The future is not hard to predict, but the past is forever changing.’ The essays gathered in this volume all deal in one way or another with the way people organize their collective memories of a past, and particularly a national past. The range of topics is remarkable, and the essays themselves are uniformly excellent—beginning with Jeffrey K. Olick's masterful introduction.”—Kai Erikson, author of A New Species of Trouble: The Human Experience of Modern DisastersTable of ContentsAcknowledgments vii Introduction / Jeffrey K.

    Book SynopsisSe prepare para ter um novo conceito da palavra criatividade. O autor propõe formas de ativar seu lado criativo e encontrar os bloqueadores para que você possa aplicar a criatividade de uma forma simples e objetiva no dia a dia. Se você quer inovar, reconstruir, modificar e se atualizar, você precisa usar esse dom que é inerente a todo ser humano e não deixar o medo te bloquear. Nós temos em nosso lobo temporal no cérebro a amígdala cerebelosa, ela é responsável pela resposta ao medo. Quando estamos com medo paralisamos e com certeza não somos criativos, mas reativos. Pense em uma pessoa se afogando, é melhor não se aproximar, se não você acaba se afogando também, é isso que o medo faz, ele te paralisa, mas quando estamos seguros e com expectativas boas, sem olhar as impossibilidades, aplicamos a criatividade no nosso dia a dia. Sabe por que as crianças são criativas? Elas não veem impossibilidades.Assuma a sua criatividade divina. Deus é criativo e isso está intrinsicamente dentro de
