From the New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit, an investigation of what makes conversations work, and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in our livesThe right conversation, at the right moment, can change everything.We all know people who seem capable of connecting with anyone. They are the ones we turn to for advice, who ask the best questions—but who are also able to hear what goes unsaid, what we are really trying to say.Why are these people so good at connecting? And what can they tell us about how communication works?Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg argues, understand—some by intuition, some by hard-won experience—that there is a science to how human beings connect. They understand that every time we speak to someone, we’re actually engaging in one of three conversations: What is this really about? How do we feel? And, Who are we? They know the importance of identifying what kind of conversation we’re having, and then matching it, so tha

If you want to ensure a bright future for your child thank to coding, then keep reading...Hey you, father or mother that are reading these lines, let me introduce myself. I'm Raymond Deep, expert programmer since 1999 and father of two wonderful kids.Do you know that the median annual wage for computer programmers was $86,550 in 2019? I want, like you, give a chance to my childs and, you know, coding is the skill that each one wants on the market.Children want to have fun and I was looking for, without ever being satisfied, a product that would explain step by step, without the intervention of a parent and in a funny way, how to start writing the first line of code.Searching on internet, I discovered an image-based programming language that is perfect for kids to learn the logic of programming, how a programmer has to think: SCRATCH 3.This language/tool is fantastic and, because I'm an experienced programmer, I saw the big potential and I started to study all details and features of th

The propensity to make music is the most mysterious, wonderful, and neglected feature of humankind: this is where Steven Mithen began, drawing together strands from archaeology, anthropology, psychology, neuroscience--and, of course, musicology--to explain why we are so compelled to make and hear music. But music could not be explained without addressing language, and could not be accounted for without understanding the evolution of the human body and mind. Thus Mithen arrived at the wildly ambitious project that unfolds in this book: an exploration of music as a fundamental aspect of the human condition, encoded into the human genome during the evolutionary history of our species.Music is the language of emotion, common wisdom tells us. In The Singing Neanderthals, Mithen introduces us to the science that might support such popular notions. With equal parts scientific rigor and charm, he marshals current evidence about social organization, tool and weapon technologies, hunting and sca
