Book Description
Over the past 45 years, award-winning sociologist David L. Altheide has illuminated how media formats and media logic affect our understanding of social issues, of how political decisions are made, and of how we relate to each other. In this masterful, summative work, Altheide describes the media syndrome: how these factors shape our expectations of, and reactions to, both public and personal events. Ideal for courses on mass media and political communication, the book provides a detailed description of the media syndrome and its impact on daily life; uses historical and contemporary examples from Watergate to Edward Snowden; includes the changes in the ecology of communication from mass media to social media and its social impact.

Book Description
Once, humans were what they believed. Now, the modern person is determined by data exhaust—an invisible anthropocentric ether of ones and zeros that is a product of our digitally monitored age. Author Mark Jarzombek argues that the world has become redesigned to fuse the algorithmic with the ontological, and the discussion of ontology must be updated to rethink the question of Being. In Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age, Jarzombek provocatively studies the new interrelationship between human and algorithm. Forerunners is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital works. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.

Book Description
Founders and Organizational Development: The Etiology and Theory of Founder’s Syndrome is designed to help today’s researchers, faculty, students and practitioners become familiar with the etiology and dynamics of Founder’s Syndrome as an organizational condition challenging nonprofit/nongovernmental, social enterprise, and for-profit and publicly traded organizations. The book uses applied social and psychological theories and concepts to peel away the layers of an organizational enigma, revealing three causes of Founder’s Syndrome and insight into the power and privileges assumed by founders who engage in undesirable and self-destructive behaviors leading to their termination; going from hero status to antihero. Researchers, instructors, students, and practitioners will find thought-provoking case studies from the real world of organization development practice. Segments from interviews during interventions reveal the type of emotional turmoil experienced in organizations where founder’s syndrome is present. Insight is provided into accounts of well-known founders who were terminated or forced to resign. The unique features of this book include: integrating theory into practice, describing a new theory about the psychological reaction of founder’s syndrome victims, prevention ideas when designing new organizations, strategies for intervention, using content based on research and organization development consultation experiences, and, integrating feedback from students who have launched organizations.

Book Description
It was first described in 1979, named in 1981, and in 2004 a gene for CHARGE was identified.

Book Description
Providing a theoretical foundation for understanding communication and language impairments specific to autism, Olga Bogdashina explores the effects of different perceptual and cognitive styles on the communication and language development of autistic children. She stresses the importance of identifying each autistic individual's nonverbal language - which can be visual, tactile, kinaesthetic, auditory, olfactory or gustatory - with a view to establish a shared means of verbal communication. She offers an explanation of why certain approaches, for example PECS, might work with some autistic children but not others. Offering real insights, the `What They Say' sections enable the reader to see through the eyes of autistic individuals and to understand their language differences first hand. `What We Can Do to Help' sections throughout the book give practical recommendations on what to do in order to help autistic individuals use their natural mechanisms to learn and develop social and communicative skills. The final chapters are devoted to assessment and intervention issues with practical recommendations for selecting appropriate methods and techniques to enhance communication, based on the specific mode of communication a person uses.

Book Description
Jameis1of1 has written a game-changing book that the main stream sports media may hate but NFL fans will love! - Jacquez Green: Former NFL WR and University of Florida Football Hall of Famer Author Jameis1of1 has written the definitive book on Jameis Winston! He also compares the statistics of every single modern era Hall of Fame quarterback to Winston as well as to each other, all while adjusting for era to eliminate even the appearance of bias. Jameis Winston Derangement Syndrome is an NFL stat-geek's dream, a biased media member's nightmare and belongs in every Buccaneers fan's library! - Ashlie Abrahams, Host: Talk The Plank Podcast *** More reviews follow below description *** Jameis Winston is one of the most controversial quarterbacks to ever play in the National Football League. The media spreads false narratives about him on a daily basis that lead even the most casual football fans to contract the disease known as Winston Derangement Syndrome. Nevertheless, Winston is: - The youngest Pro Bowl QB in NFL history - The only QB to start his career with back to back 4,000 yard passing seasons - #2 in NFL history in both career passing yards & passing touchdowns by age 25 - The only QB other than Brees to finish Top 5 in QBR on a losing team since 2015 - Top 3 in the entire NFL in many advanced metrics year in and year out and is undeniably on a Hall of Fame statistical pace even when adjusting for era! Yet biased main stream sports media members have called him a bust, said he should be cut, downplayed his achievements and even lied about his stats! In this book you will learn how and why the media spreads Winston Derangement Syndrome and will receive the cure for such a diabolical and contagious disease! This book is jam-packed with: - A mountain of statistics and advanced metrics with nearly 900 citations - Personal accounts of Jameis Winston from grade school to the present - Original adjusted for era data on EVERY SB era Hall of Fame quarterback - Piercing yet humorous exposes of various main stream media members - Tons of info the biased main stream sports media refuses to report on *** BONUS: This book contains a mountainous amount of ORIGINAL, "era adjusted" statistical reasearch on every single Super Bowl era Hall of Fame, or soon to be Hall of Fame, quarterback, including: Tom Brady Joe Montana Peyton Manning Dan Marino Brett Favre John Elway Aaron Rodgers Drew Brees Roger Staubach Terry Bradshaw Troy Aikman Warren Moon Kurt Warner Steve Young Jim Kelly Dan Fouts Ken Stabler Bob Griese ... and more! There are some great reporters that cover the Buccaneers and some great statisticians that produce wonderful research, but no one covers Jameis Winston or produces the voluminous amount of statistical research regarding Jameis Winston, as Jameis1of1 does. Jameis Winston Derangement Syndrome is one book every Bucs fan should own! - Susan Gilbert: Board certified member of the Association of Medical Illustrators Jameis1of1 exposes the biased media and refutes fake news with a mountain of evidence in a fun book every NFL fan should own! - James Hill: Youtuber aka MrBucsNation Jameis Winston is one of the most misunderstood and polarizing athletes in the history of Tampa Bay sports. Winston's life is an incredible study in how negative, misinformed and inaccurate media coverage, race and collegiate allegiances have poisoned the local fan base. Jameis1of1 takes a hard look at comparative and even era adjusted stats that prove Jameis compares favorably to Super Bowl era Hall of Fame quarterbacks. When looked at objectively it's really quite obvious Winston's on a Hall of Fame pace. - JP Peterson: Award Winning Tampa Bay Sports Journalist and Fox Sports Sun Hos
