New Releases by Steven Johnson

Tomamos decisões o tempo todo, muitas vezes sem refletir muito. Mas algumas delas têm o poder de mudar o rumo da nossa vida e até mesmo o da sociedade. Visionários nos oferece as ferramentas para colocar nossas opções em perspectiva e tomar decisões evitando ser pegos de surpresa por falhas e imprevistos. Escolhas difíceis podem tirar nosso sono: elas exigem tempo de maturação, e seus impactos muitas vezes são enormes. Charles Darwin já enfrentou o dilema de se casar ou não com sua companheira. Na primeira grande batalha da Revolução Americana, o comandante George Washington teve que escolher entre seguir sua estratégia militar inicial ou desviar suas tropas para um ataque que poderia ser uma pista falsa. Na caçada a Osama bin Laden, a CIA, ao descobrir um possível esconderijo do inimigo, precisou levantar dezenas de ideias e planos antes da ação militar. Como eles chegaram a uma decisão? Ela se mostrou acertada? Que lições podemos tirar desses (e de muitos outros) exemplos? Em Visionários, o autor best-seller Steven Johnson nos ensina a apurar a indispensável habilidade de tomar decisões complexas. Para ele, três competências fundamentais separam as pessoas movidas apenas pelos próprios instintos dos experientes tomadores de decisão: mapear todas as variáveis envolvidas numa escolha e todos os planos de ação possíveis; prever os resultados factíveis; basear-se na análise e nas previsões feitas e nos objetivos estabelecidos para, então, fazer uma escolha. Mas Johnson não está interessado em entregar uma fórmula mágica para toda e qualquer decisão complexa. Seu objetivo é muito mais ajudar a romper com o pensamento limitado e promover uma abordagem multifatorial das grandes questões que nos afetam como indivíduos e sociedade. Aplicando lições das ciências cognitivas, da psicologia social, da história mundial, da inteligência militar, do planejamento ambiental e de grandes obras literárias, Visionários é a chave para desenvolver visão de futuro e pensamento estratégico. "Fascinante... Como alguém que pensa em perspectiva e tem talento para contar histórias, Johnson é o autor certo para abordar o tópico." — Adam Grant, autor dos best-sellers Originais e Pense de novo, para The New York Times Book Review "O foco de Johnson é em decisões da vida real que, no mundo ideal, passam por uma deliberação séria... Ele nos lembra que, essencialmente, toda escolha envolve uma disputa de narrativas, e é provável que façamos escolhas melhores se tivermos histórias mais ricas, personagens mais desenvolvidos, uma compreensão mais ponderada dos motivos e uma visão mais profunda de como as decisões provavelmente vão repercutir." — The Wall Street Journal "Johnson é a pessoa certa para investigar os dilemas da tomada de decisões, oferecendo exemplos que vão desde o planejamento urbano no século XVII até a inteligência artificial contemporânea." — Financial Times "Steven Johnson é um grande autor do campo científico." — Bill Clinton

The most famous active athlete in the world during the Great Depression was not Babe Ruth, Sonja Henie or Babe Didrikson. It was a determined Greek immigrant who sailed across the Atlantic Ocean as a 15-year-old to escape a demanding father and start a life abroad. Jim Londos slept in railcars and firehouses to make ends meet and quickly found refuge on the mat. Combining an Old World work ethic with a flair for the dramatic, Londos overcame skeptics and antagonists to become pro wrestling''s greatest star, an international celebrity who walked with presidents, prime ministers and the common man. He was responsible for keeping wrestling alive during the Depression and representing achievement to ethnic minorities, underdogs and women, all of whom he attracted in record numbers. This complete biography of Jim Londos tells the story of the first great immigrant athlete, a man who rescued the soiled sport of wrestling when it was down for the count, and brought hope and inspiration to his countrymen and millions worldwide.

Se nel 1920, alla scomparsa dell’influenza spagnola, la durata media della vita superava di poco i quarant’anni, oggi gli esseri umani possono sperare di vivere oltre gli ottanta. In un secolo, l’aspettativa di vita della specie umana è raddoppiata. Il dato segnala il progresso forse più netto di tutto il Novecento, raggiunto grazie al miglioramento dell’alimentazione e delle condizioni igieniche, così come alla diminuzione delle carestie e ai programmi di vaccinazione su larga scala. Dietro ognuna di queste conquiste si nascondono storie di innovazione e cooperazione scientifica, menti brillanti e massicci investimenti in servizi pubblici. Come possiamo salvaguardare l’aspettativa di vita che abbiamo raggiunto, oggi che i nostri sistemi sanitari affrontano sfide senza precedenti? Quali strade percorrere e su quali tecnologie investire? Con grandi doti da narratore, Steven Johnson racconta gli eventi e i protagonisti di una vera e propria rivoluzione per l’umanità, dalla scoperta degli antibiotici all’invenzione delle cinture di sicurezza. Ricordandoci che ancora oggi, in numerose parti del mondo, vivere a lungo rimane un sogno irrealizzabile.

“A fast-burning fuse of a book, every page bursting with revelatory detail.”—ERIK LARSON A sweeping account of the anarchists who terrorized the streets of New York and the detective duo who transformed policing to meet the threat—a tale of fanaticism, forensic science, and dynamite from the bestselling author of The Ghost Map A CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • LONGLISTED FOR THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL FOR EXCELLENCE IN NONFICTION Steven Johnson’s engrossing account of the epic struggle between the anarchist movement and the emerging surveillance state stretches around the world and between two centuries—from Alfred Nobel’s invention of dynamite and the assassination of Czar Alexander II to New York City in the shadow of World War I. April 1914. The NYPD is still largely the corrupt, low-tech organization of the Tammany Hall era. To the extent the police are stopping crime—as opposed to committing it—their role has been almost entirely defined by physical force: the brawn of the cop on the beat keeping criminals at bay with nightsticks and fists. The solving of crimes is largely outside their purview. The new commissioner, Arthur Woods, is determined to change that, but he cannot anticipate the maelstrom of violence that will soon test his science-based approach to policing. Within weeks of his tenure, New York City is engulfed in the most concentrated terrorism campaign in the nation’s history: a five-year period of relentless bombings, many of them perpetrated by the anarchist movement led by legendary radicals Alexander Berkman and Emma Goldman. Coming to Woods’s aide are Inspector Joseph Faurot, a science-first detective who works closely with him in reforming the police force, and Amadeo Polignani, the young Italian undercover detective who infiltrates the notorious Bresci Circle. Johnson reveals a mostly forgotten period of political conviction, scientific discovery, assassination plots, bombings, undercover operations, and innovative sleuthing. The Infernal Machine is the complex pre-history of our current moment, when decentralized anarchist networks have once again taken to the streets to protest law enforcement abuses, right-wing militia groups have attacked government buildings, and surveillance is almost ubiquitous.

A young readers adaptation of Steven Johnson''s Extra Life, the story of how humans have doubled our lifespan in less than a century—and what to do with the extra life we now have. Humans live longer now than they ever have in their more than three hundred thousand years of existence on earth. And most (if not all) of the advances that have permitted the human lifespan to double have happened in living memory. Extra Life looks at vaccines, seat belts, pesticides, and more, and how each of our scientific advancements have prolonged human life. This book is a deep dive into the sciences--perfect for younger readers who enjoy modern history as well as scientific advances.

My Brother''s Cross By: Steven Johnson My Brother''s Cross is a work that is the culmination of verses that came together piece by piece over the years. During various worship services, thoughts and feelings came together to express how one might keep the vision of Christ close while living in a world full of pain and difficulties. It helps people remember that Christ lives and He is with everyone through all that they experience. The artwork portrays what the journey of mortality for someone living with depression may be like; from living on earth and being taken to Christ and then returning once again.

From bestselling and award-winning authors Steven Barnes and Dr. Charles Johnson comes The Eightfold Path, a graphic novel anthology of interconnected Afrofuturistic parables inspired by the teachings of Buddha, illustrated by Bryan Christopher Moss. Eight strangers—looking for enlightenment from an ancient spiritual teacher—are trapped in a cave high in the mountains on their way to his temple. One of his acolytes directs them to each tell a story that the group can learn from as they wait out the horrible snowstorm that rages outside the cave’s entrance. One by one, the travelers each share a story that, unbeknownst to them, is actually a morality tale representing one of the aspects of final enlightenment as taught in Buddhism. As the wind howls through the night, they tell symbolic stories of horror, dystopia, high adventure, cyberpunk, and urban fantasy. Each story is a spoke on the symbolic dharma wheel, and each interlocking tale gets the travelers closer to their true destiny: unveiling the future of the entire human race. This remarkable collection borrows heavily from the traditions of pop culture morality anthology series such as The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, Night Gallery, Lovecraft Country, and the publications of EC Comics. Strongly influenced by the science-fiction pulps of the 1950s and 1960s, this brilliant collection remixes classic social narratives, such as Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, and The Arabian Nights, through an edgy, contemporary, yet spiritually centered lens. In The Eightfold Path, our destinies lie in heeding the lessons given in every one of these entrancing tales.

Do autor de Como chegamos até aqui e De onde vêm as boas ideias, a surpreendente história de como nós humanos ganhamos 20 mil dias a mais em nossas vidas. Buscando respostas para os desafios atuais e do futuro, Longevidade é uma ode ao poder duradouro dos objetivos comuns. Todos os avanços do mundo moderno — o método científico, as descobertas médicas, as instituições de saúde pública — proporcionaram a cada um de nós cerca de cinco décadas a mais de existência. Steven Johnson, um dos mais influentes pensadores da tecnologia, traça aqui os meandros dessa evolução. Quantos desses anos extras vieram de vacinas, antibióticos ou do uso dos cintos de segurança? Que forças agora nos mantêm vivos por mais tempo? Por trás de cada invenção revolucionária, o autor apresenta uma história inspiradora de inovação cooperativa, de pensadores brilhantes apoiados pelo poder público e por redes colaborativas. Afinal, as mudanças mais fundamentais que já experimentamos não vieram de grandes corporações, e sim de ativistas lutando por reformas, pesquisadores nas universidades compartilhando descobertas e agências sem fins lucrativos divulgando novos avanços da ciência em todo o mundo. "Steven Johnson não nos deixa esquecer do papel da ciência moderna em transformar fundamentalmente as nossas vidas." — Barack Obama

Love is like an ocean, the deeper you go, the deeper it will leave an impact on you. It leaves you all blend and brew, that is the power of love for you. It makes one crazy and ready to do anything for the one they truly love. Love is like a pure emotion so strong with time and hard to let go. Love is a beautiful thing. It makes one do the unthinkable just to be with the ones they love. A person in love schemes more than a hundred lawyers. He or she will try everything possible to be with the one they love.

“Offers a useful reminder of the role of modern science in fundamentally transforming all of our lives.” —President Barack Obama (on Twitter) “An important book.” —Steven Pinker, The New York Times Book Review The surprising and important story of how humans gained what amounts to an extra life, from the bestselling author of How We Got to Now and Where Good Ideas Come From In 1920, at the end of the last major pandemic, global life expectancy was just over forty years. Today, in many parts of the world, human beings can expect to live more than eighty years. As a species we have doubled our life expectancy in just one century. There are few measures of human progress more astonishing than this increased longevity. Extra Life is Steven Johnson’s attempt to understand where that progress came from, telling the epic story of one of humanity’s greatest achievements. How many of those extra years came from vaccines, or the decrease in famines, or seatbelts? What are the forces that now keep us alive longer? Behind each breakthrough lies an inspiring story of cooperative innovation, of brilliant thinkers bolstered by strong systems of public support and collaborative networks, and of dedicated activists fighting for meaningful reform. But for all its focus on positive change, this book is also a reminder that meaningful gaps in life expectancy still exist, and that new threats loom on the horizon, as the COVID-19 pandemic has made clear. How do we avoid decreases in life expectancy as our public health systems face unprecedented challenges? What current technologies or interventions that could reduce the impact of future crises are we somehow ignoring? A study in how meaningful change happens in society, Extra Life celebrates the enduring power of common goals and public resources, and the heroes of public health and medicine too often ignored in popular accounts of our history. This is the sweeping story of a revolution with immense public and personal consequences: the doubling of the human life span.

“Thoroughly engrossing . . . a spirited, suspenseful, economically told tale whose significance is manifest and whose pace never flags.” —The Wall Street Journal From The New York Times–bestselling author of The Ghost Map and Extra Life, the story of a pirate who changed the world Henry Every was the seventeenth century’s most notorious pirate. The press published wildly popular—and wildly inaccurate—reports of his nefarious adventures. The British government offered enormous bounties for his capture, alive or (preferably) dead. But Steven Johnson argues that Every’s most lasting legacy was his inadvertent triggering of a major shift in the global economy. Enemy of All Mankind focuses on one key event—the attack on an Indian treasure ship by Every and his crew—and its surprising repercussions across time and space. It’s the gripping tale of one of the most lucrative crimes in history, the first international manhunt, and the trial of the seventeenth century. Johnson uses the extraordinary story of Henry Every and his crimes to explore the emergence of the East India Company, the British Empire, and the modern global marketplace: a densely interconnected planet ruled by nations and corporations. How did this unlikely pirate and his notorious crime end up playing a key role in the birth of multinational capitalism? In the same mode as Johnson’s classic nonfiction historical thriller The Ghost Map, Enemy of All Mankind deftly traces the path from a single struck match to a global conflagration.

En una época marcada por el cortoplacismo, Steven Johnson alza la voz sobre la importancia del proceso de toma de decisiones complejas, aquellas que acarrean mayores consecuencias y determinan el futuro. Evidentemente no existe un modelo único, válido para todos los casos en los que esté implicada alguna decisión cuyo resultado pueda alterar el curso de una vida, una organización o una civilización. Sin embargo, este libro nos revela potentes herramientas para perfeccionar nuestras habilidades en lo que se refiere a la toma de decisiones importantes. Steven Johnson, conocido por su capacidad analítica, tiene un don para contar historias y en este libro lo hace de forma magistral. En un recorrido que va desde las tácticas de pensamiento de los expertos o las estrategias de directivos y diplomáticos, hasta las historias personales que revelan ideas sorprendentes, pasando por el proceso creativo de un escritor o los retos que enfrentan ingenieros que tienen que asegurar el suministro de agua a la población, el autor nos muestran que el éxito se basa en tener una visión de futuro y capacidad para considerar todas las opciones de forma creativa y productiva. Nos enfrentamos a importantes desafíos, tanto personales como colectivos, lo que hagamos hoy determinará cómo viviremos mañana. Ahora más que nunca es fundamental desarrollar nuestra visión de futuro para sacar lo mejor de lo que está por venir.

Como en el mundo de hoy, en el de los piratas del siglo xvii no hay sino un propósito claro: la búsqueda del tesoro Un pirata oteando el horizonte, empapado de ron y ansioso de tesoros: en septiembre de 1695, el pirata inglés Henry Every, capitán del Fancy, atacó y se apoderó de un barco que regresaba a la India desde la Meca. Este acto, uno de los crímenes más lucrativos de la historia, tuvo ramificaciones mundiales y dio lugar a la primera orden de caza y captura internacional y al primer juicio del siglo XVII. Este acontecimiento, remoto y aislado en el océano Índico, fue el desencadenante involuntario del cambio más importante sufrido en la economía mundial hasta nuestros días: el nacimiento del capitalismo. Steven Johnson utiliza la extraordinaria historia de este pirata y sus crímenes para explorar la aparición de la Compañía de las Indias Orientales, el Imperio británico y el mercado mundial: un planeta densamente interconectado gobernado por naciones y corporaciones y sus intereses económicos. Como en el mundo actual, en el de los piratas del siglo XVII no hay sino un propósito claro: la búsqueda del tesoro.

Al contar su extraordinaria historia, Steven Johnson también explora todo un mundo de ideas y conexiones, desde el terror urbano hasta los microbios, los ecosistemas y la Gran Peste, los fenómenos culturales y la vida en la calle. Una poderosa explicación de cómo se ha dado forma al mundo en que vivimos. Libro destacado - The New York Times

"In The Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame: The Storytellers (from the Terrible Turk to Twitter), Greg Oliver and Steven Johnson explain how wrestling''s unique take on storytelling has fueled its remarkable expansion. Based on hundreds of interviews and original accounts, Oliver and Johnson describe the imaginative ways in which wrestlers and promoters have used monkeys, murderers, smelt, and wedding cakes to put butts in seats and encourage clicks, likes, and swipes across countless screens. As they trace the evolution of wrestling storytelling, Oliver and Johnson take readers on a winding journey from the New York City Bowery in the 1890s to a Detroit bar in the 1960s to a North Carolina backyard in 2017, meeting up along the way with all manner of scoundrels, do-gooders, scribes, and alligators. Storytellers is a highly readable, heavily researched book that will leave readers with a new appreciation for the fine (and sometimes not-so-fine) art of storytelling."--

La conquista de la actualidad no se expresa a través de grandes titulares sino en el desarrollo paciente y hasta azaroso de algunas ideas, que, lejos de toda celebridad, suelen reconocer como artífices a modestos y abnegados desconocidos. En esta historia laberíntica y casi secreta, Steven Johnson dirige su lupa hacia seis tópicos –El Vidrio, El Frío, El Sonido, La Limpieza, El Tiempo, La Luz– y analiza de qué modo fueron tratados a lo largo de los siglos hasta su expresión cabal en objetos sin los cuales jamás podríamos concebir el mundo actual. El enfoque de Johnson abunda en sorpresas y se nutre de malentendidos: desde el escritor francés que inventó el grabador antes de Edison pero “olvidó” incluir un sistema de reproducción hasta la dispar concepción de la higiene corporal en el siglo XIX, al tiempo que examina conexiones insólitas entre campos aparentemente distantes: cómo la invención del aire acondicionado permitió la migración más grande de seres humanos a ciudades como Dubai o Phoenix, que de otro modo serían inhabitables; cómo los relojes de péndulo ayudaron a desencadenar la revolución industrial o cómo el agua potable posibilitó la fabricación de chips de computadora. Cuando contemplamos un objeto vulgar –un par de anteojos o una lámpara, sin ir más lejos–, solemos olvidar la historia que lo inviste. Debemos agradecer a Johnson no solo que la recree sino además que lo haga de modo tan ameno y fascinante. “Steven Johnson es un experto en la historia de las ideas [...]

In today''s rapidly evolving world, the erosion of individual character is increasingly evident. Values-based societies require vigilant character development to sustain ethical behavior across public and private life. Building Character: The Values Journal is intended to provide a tool to assist on the journey toward character development. Building Character is rooted in the deliberate execution of four core principles: discipline, practice, challenge yourself, and seek wisdom. Parents, as the guides on this journey, are asked to provide a good example and to leverage smart empowerment, responsibility, and preparation to encourage their children to succeed in discovering their true character. While children are challenged to learn by doing, practice, and challenging themselves on their journey to shape themselves into the type of person they want to be. The method used in the Values Journal is for each individual to explore their own understanding of the thirty-one values included in the journal. As a part of this process, each individual is asked to structure an approach that works with their schedule (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly) to - review Bible references related to each value, - write his own definition of each value, - review the questions and provide relevant answers, and - use the free expression pages to journal his results in a way that helps to personalize his experiences.
