This lavishly illustrated volume, demonstrating the scope and depth of the vast and remarkable global collections of the Fowler Museum at ucla, has been produced as part of the ongoing celebration of the institution's fiftieth-anniversary year. It recalls many of the highlights of the Museum's formation, focusing not only on collections development but also on a long history of programmatic innovation. \n\nThe book begins with an essay by the Museum's director, Marla C. Berns, which sketches the Fowler's history, and this is followed by a section reproducing in color and large format 250 stunning works from the collection. Berns's lengthy history of involvement with the Fowler - which began when she worked for the Museum as a graduate intern while pursuing her doctorate at UCLA - and the innovative strategies she has introduced, have uniquely situated her to author this book.

Former professional ballerina Valorie Kondos Field--or Miss Val, as she's affectionately known--has never tumbled, flipped, or even played any type of organized sports, and yet she has been able to craft a legendary coaching career through curiosity, creativity, attention to detail, and unwavering care for the overall well-being of her athletes. For Miss Val, it's not about winning and losing, it's about choreographing your life and owning the choices you make.\n\nMiss Val has shaped her UCLA Gymnastics program as a life skills class and now she's sharing those lessons with you, whether you're an athlete, business leader, or simply someone who wants to own their destiny. Miss Val's philosophies are timeless. Her coaching style is unorthodox. Life Is Short, Don't Wait to Dance is a thought-provoking, fun journey through the anecdotes of the 35-year career of a dancer/choreographer turned athletic coach. \n\nThe book includes unforgettable stories of the Olympians and athletes with whom she's worked-including the inspirational journey of Katelyn Ohashi, whose joyful transformation under the tutelage of Miss Val was evident to the world when her perfect 10 floor routine went viral -- reaching over 100 million viewers. Other triumphs include Olympian Jamie Dantzscher, who found her confidence at UCLA and learned the tools to combat her previous abuse; and sensation Christine Peng Peng Lee, who helped the Bruins clinch the 2018 NCAA championship with back-to-back 10's. Miss Val also shares her favorite memories of her mentor, legendary basketball coach John Wooden, as well as her thoughts on Larry Nassar and the gymnastics sexual abuse scandal.\n\nMiss Val reveals how her coaching journey had a rocky start before she found her own best approach. In time she realized that her dance background wasn't a detriment, it was a gift. When she embraced this, Miss Val led the Bruins to victory. Life Is Short, Don't Wait to Dance is packed with great advice for anyone on a quest for success, delivered in Miss Val's reassuring and inspirational tone. She took the same approach to her breast cancer diagnosis, explaining how she made that struggle into one of the best years of her life. For Miss Val, it's all about attitude. Life Is Short, Don't Wait to Dance is a powerful book that shows you how to make the leap of faith in choosing your own path to greatness.

Beat the odds with a bold strategy from McKinsey & Company\n\n \"Every once in a while, a genuinely fresh approach to business strategy appears\"\n—legendary business professor Richard Rumelt, UCLA\n\n McKinsey & Company's newest, most definitive, and most irreverent book on strategy—which thousands of executives are already using—is a must-read for all C-suite executives looking to create winning corporate strategies.\n\n Strategy Beyond the Hockey Stick is spearheading an empirical revolution in the field of strategy. Based on an extensive analysis of the key factors that drove the long-term performance of thousands of global companies, the book offers a ground-breaking formula that enables you to objectively assess your strategy's real odds of future success. \"This book is fundamental. The principles laid out here, with compelling data, are a great way around the social pitfalls in strategy development.\"\n—Frans Van Houten, CEO, Royal Philips N.V.\n\n The authors have discovered that over a 10-year period, just 1 in 12 companies manage to jump from the middle tier of corporate performance—where 60% of companies reside, making very little economic profit—to the top quintile where 90% of global economic profit is made. This movement does not happen by magic—it depends on your company's current position, the trends it faces, and the big moves you make to give it the strongest chance of vaulting over the competition.\n\n This is not another strategy framework. Rather, Strategy Beyond the Hockey Stick shows, through empirical analysis and the experiences of dozens of companies that have successfully made multiple big moves, that to dramatically improve performance, you have to overcome incrementalism and corporate inertia.\n\n \"A different kind of book—I couldn't put it down. Inspiring new insights on the facts of what it takes to move a company's performance, combined with practical advice on how to deal with real-life dynamics in management teams.\"\n—Jane Fraser, CEO, Citigroup Latin America

From one of today's leading experts on the emerging science of the microbiome comes a ground-breaking book that offers, for the first time, evidence that the gut-microbiome plays a pivotal role in the health crises of the twenty-first century.\n\nIn his acclaimed book, The Mind-Gut Connection, physician, UCLA professor, and researcher Dr. Emeran Mayer offered groundbreaking evidence of the critical role of the microbiome in neurological and cognitive health, proving once and for all the power and legitimacy of the \"mind-body connection.\" Now, in The Gut-Immune Connection, Dr. Mayer proposes an even more radical paradigm shift: that the gut microbiome is at the center of virtually every disease that defines our 21st-century public health crisis.\n\nCutting-edge research continues to advance our understanding of the function and impact of the billions of organisms that live in the GI tract, and in Dr. Mayer's own research, he has amassed evidence that the \"conversation\" that takes place between these microbes and our various organs and bodily systems is critical to human health. When that conversation goes awry, we suffer, often becoming seriously ill.\n\nCombining clinical experience with up-to-the-minute science, The Gut-Immune Connection offers a comprehensive look at the link between alterations to the gut microbiome and the development chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, as well as susceptibility to infectious diseases like Covid-19. Dr. Mayer argues that it's essential we understand the profound and far-reaching effects of gut health and offers clear-cut strategies to reverse the steady upward rise of these illnesses, including a model for nutrition to support the microbiome. \n\nBut time is running out: a plague of antimicrobial resistance is only a few decades away if we don't make critical changes to our food supply, including returning to sustainable practices that maintain the microbial diversity of the soil. To turn the tide of chronic and infectious disease tomorrow, we must shift the way we live today.

Coach Wooden and me è la biografia di un grande allenatore e l’omaggio a un uomo, al basket e alla vita. Un libro per chi ama lo sport e per chi crede nel valore dell’amicizia. 50 anni di amicizia dentro e fuori dal campo.\r\n\r\nAll’età di 18 anni Lew Alcindor da New York City approda a Los Angeles, a UCLA alla corte di John Wooden. Tra i due nasce un rapporto di amicizia e fiducia tra i più duraturi della storia dello sport, raccontato da due foto scattate nello stesso luogo a 41 anni di distanza.\r\n\r\nNella prima un allenatore bianco, cinquantaseienne, indica a un diciannovenne nero di due metri e venti come si sta in campo. Nella seconda, lo stesso uomo bianco, quasi centenario, si appoggia a quel ragazzo nero, ormai uno degli sportivi più famosi del mondo, per uscire dal campo tra gli applausi.\r\nDopo la morte di Wooden nel 2010, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar ha iniziato a pensare e scrivere questo libro, pubblicato a maggio 2017 in America e subito diventato un best seller, in cui racconta i particolari di un rapporto sportivo, umano e culturale che ha segnato la sua vita.\r\n\r\nRicco di aneddoti, di ricordi e di momenti di vita e di basket, il libro ripercorre le tappe di una carriera eccezionale, fatta anche di momenti difficili e di battaglie come quella contro il razzismo e la discriminazione. Uomo di solidi principi, capace di comprendere e di stare vicino ai suoi atleti, coach Wooden attraverso il basket insegnava ai ragazzi a studiare e capire il mondo anche fuori dal campo.\r\n\r\n«Sono impressionato dai tuoi voti, Lew» disse coach Wooden al nostro primo incontro, mentre mi sedevo davanti a lui e alla sua scrivania piena di appunti.\r\nVoti? Ho pensato. Sei l’allenatore di una delle migliori squadre di basket del Paese e parli di voti? E le mie statistiche impressionanti?\r\nCome se avesse capito cosa stavo pensando, mi guardò negli occhi per tranquillizzarmi e disse: «Per la maggior parte degli studenti, il basket è qualcosa che passa. La conoscenza invece ti accompagna per sempre.»

Steve Wynn I Wouldn't Say It If It Wasn't True: A Memoir Of Life, Music, And The Dream Syndicate
Lafeltrinelli.it
Spedizione: 2.7 EUR
Brand: Steve Wynn
EAN:
9781916829060Categoria: Libri e riviste
Summer 1984. I ve got the back lounge of this tour bus all to myself, partly because I m the lead singer but more likely because it means the rest of the band won t have to deal with me for the rest of the day. Just two years earlier I was flunking out at UCLA, working the day shift in a record store, living out of my father s basement. Now I m living the million-to-one reality of touring the country with my band, The Dream Syndicate, opening for up-and-coming rock darlings REM, and making a big-budget sophomore album for A&M Records. I m also untethered and unbound, drinking a fifth of Jim Beam every day, barely speaking to my best friend and guitarist, and looking for trouble in all the wrong places. How did I get from there to here? And how do I get out? Stick around and find out. I ll be here, dreaming my dream . . . I Wouldn t Say It If It Wasn t True is a tale of writing songs and playing in bands as a conduit to a world its author could once have barely imagined -- a world of major labels, luxury tour buses, and sold-out theaters, but also one of alcohol, drugs, and a low-level rock n roll Babylon. Beginning with Wynn s childhood in California in the 60s and 70s, the book builds to a crescendo with the formation of the first incarnation of The Dream Syndicate in 1981 as an antidote to the prepackaged pop music of the era. It charts the highs and lows of the band s early years at the forefront of the Paisley Underground scene alongside Green On Red, Rain Parade, and The Bangles; the seismic impact of their debut album, The Days Of Wine And Roses; the spiraling chaos of the sessions for the follow-up, Medicine Show; the dissolution of the band s first line-up and the launch of a second phase of The Dream Syndicate with Out Of The Grey and Ghost Stories; and more, culminating with the release of the landmark live album Live At Raji s. This is Wynn s story, but it also features some of the biggest and most colorful characters of the period, offering a detailed field guide to the music business that manages to both glorify and demystify in equal measure. And, ultimately, it s a tale of redemption, with music as a vehicle for artistic and personal transformation and transcendence.

A carefully argued case for basic income as central to a democratic transformation of society Carole Pateman, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, UCLA\n\n\n\n'This path-breaking work throws new light on how we understand work, freedom, and emancipation in today's highly precariatised and insecure world ... A must-read' Sarath Davala, Chair, Basic Income Earth Network\n\n\n\nAs the rich get richer and take more of our wealth, our democratic freedoms are also in danger. The elite are gaining large profits without contributing back to society, hollowing out our public services and institutions and preventing the vast majority of us from living our lives to the fullest.\n\n\n\nIn Unconditional Freedom, David Casassas argues that for us to live freely, we need unconditional resources such as Universal Basic Income. In a sharp and lucid analysis, he shows that UBI would not only liberate us from the nightmare of social exclusion and precarious employment, it would also increase our bargaining power as individuals and collectives, opening doors to democratise our lives.

When future NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was still an 18-year-old high school basketball prospect from New York City named Lew Alcindor, he accepted a scholarship from UCLA largely on the strength of Coach John Wooden's reputation as a winner. It turned out to be the right choice, as Alcindor and his teammates won an unprecedented three NCAA championship titles. But it also marked the beginning of one of the most extraordinary and enduring friendships in the history of sports. In COACH WOODEN AND ME, Abdul-Jabbar reveals the inspirational story of how his bond with John Wooden evolved from a history-making coach-player mentorship into a deep and genuine friendship that transcended sports, shaped the course of both men's lives, and lasted for half a century.\n\nCOACH WOODEN AND ME is a stirring tribute to the subtle but profound influence that Wooden had on Kareem as a player, and then as a person, as they began to share their cultural, religious, and family values while facing some of life's biggest obstacles. From his first day of practice, when the players were taught the importance of putting on their athletic socks properly, to gradually absorbing the sublime wisdom of Coach Wooden's now famous \"Pyramid of Success\"; to learning to cope with the ugly racism that confronted black athletes during the turbulent Civil Rights era as well as losing loved ones, Abdul-Jabbar fondly recalls how Coach Wooden's fatherly guidance not only paved the way for his unmatched professional success but also made possible a lifetime of personal fulfillment.\n\nFull of intimate, never-before-published details and delivered with the warmth and erudition of a grateful student who has learned his lessons well, COACH WOODEN AND ME is at once a celebration of the unique philosophical outlook of college basketball's most storied coach and a moving testament to the all-conquering power of friendship.

This book is essential reading for any clinician or researcher working with teens with autism spectrum disorders.

Each session chapter includes handouts, homework assignments, descriptions of what to expect (and how to handle challenges in delivering the intervention), and customized tips for both parents and therapists.

Neal M. Goldsmith Psychedelic Healing: The Promise Of Entheogens For Psychotherapy And Spiritual Development
Lafeltrinelli.it
Spedizione: 2.7 EUR
Brand: Neal M. Goldsmith
EAN:
9781594772504Categoria: Libri e riviste
Banned after promising research in the 1940s, ’50s, and ’60s, the use of psychedelics as therapeutic catalysts is now being rediscovered at prestigious medical schools, such as Harvard, Johns Hopkins, NYU, and UCLA. Through clinical trials to assess their use, entheogens have been found to ease anxiety in the dying, interrupt the hold of addictive drugs, cure post-traumatic stress disorder, and treat other deep-seated emotional disturbances. To date, results have been positive, and the idea of psychedelics as powerful psychiatric--and spiritual--medicines is now beginning to be accepted by the medical community. Exploring the latest cutting-edge research on psychedelics, along with their use in indigenous cultures throughout history for rites of passage and shamanic rituals, Neal Goldsmith reveals that the curative effect of entheogens comes not from a chemical effect on the body but rather by triggering a peak or spiritual experience. He provides guidelines for working with entheogens, groundbreaking analyses of the concept--and the process--of change in psychotherapy, and, ultimately, his own story of psychedelic healing. Examining the tribal roots of this knowledge, Goldsmith shows that by combining ancient wisdom and modern research, we can unlock the emotional, mental, and spiritual healing powers of these unique and powerful tools, providing an integral medicine for postmodern society.

Miwon Kwon (direttrice del Dipartimento di Storia dell'arte dell'UCLA di Los Angeles) esamina la site specificity come un indice complesso della relazione mutevole tra il luogo e l'identità nell'epoca del tardo capitalismo, attraverso le opere di artisti che si sono interrogati sulle possibili forme di tale rapporto. L'arte site-specific nasce alla fine degli anni Sessanta in reazione alla crescente mercificazione dell'arte e agli ideali di autonomia e universalità dell'arte in voga in quegli anni. Nel corso degli anni Settanta e Ottanta, mentre l'arte site-specific si intersecava con la land art, l'arte processuale, la performance, le installazioni, l'arte concettuale, la critica istituzionale, l'arte comunitaria e l'arte pubblica, i suoi creatori insistevano sull'inseparabilità dell'opera e del suo contesto. \"Effettivamente il termine ricorre oggi con grande frequenza in un'ampia gamma di testi per cataloghi, comunicati stampa, candidature per sovvenzioni, recensioni giornalistiche e dichiarazioni di artisti... questo libro punta a ricontestualizzare la site specificity come mediazione culturale dei più ampi processi sociali, economici e politici...\" (L'autrice)

It's 1974, and Jerry Stieglitz is a grad student in marine biology at UCLA with a side gig selling short stories to science fiction magazines, just weeks away from marrying his long-time fiancee. Then his life is upended by grim-faced men from three-letter agencies who want him to join a top-secret 'Project Azorian' in the middle of the north Pacific Ocean-and they really don't take 'no' for an answer. Further, they're offering enough money to solve all of Jerry's immediate problems.\n\nJoining up and swearing to secrecy, what he first learns is that Project Azorian is secretly trying to raise a sunken Russian submarine, while pretending to be harvesting undersea manganese nodules. But the dead Russian sub, while real, turns out to be a cover story as well. What's down on the ocean floor next to it is the thing that killed the sub: an alien spacecraft.\n\nJerry's a scientist, a longhair, a storyteller, a dreamer. He stands out like a sore thumb on the Glomar Explorer, a ship full of CIA operatives, RAND Corporation eggheads, and roustabout divers. But it turns out that he's the one person in the North Pacific who's truly thought out all the ways that human-alien first contact might go.\n\nAnd meanwhile, it's still 1974 back on the mainland. Richard Nixon is drinking heavily and talking to the paintings on the White House walls. The USA is changing fast--and who knows what will happen when this story gets out? Three Miles Down is both a fresh and original take on First Contact, and a hugely enjoyable romp through the pop culture, political tumult, and conspiracies-within-conspiracies atmosphere that was 1974.
