The power of teamwork : how we can all work better together / by Goldman, Brian,author.;
"New from the bestselling author of The Power of Kindness and host of CBC Radio's White Coat, Black Art. In the high-pressure and complex setting of healthcare, a new approach to teamwork is leading to healthy patients, happier staff and more efficient operations. Healthcare's embracing of a new teamwork model has gotten noticed by people well outside the world of medicine, so doctors are going outside the walls of the hospital to teach manufacturers, business owners, franchisees, customer and social services and even the worlds of sports and entertainment to do better by shifting the culture from "me" to "we." Drawing on groundbreaking research and examples from around the world, The Power of Teamwork shows how the team approach from medicine can improve customer service and help women break the glass ceiling. It can solidify the providing of social services to troubled youth. It can boost the efficiency and safety of the military and critical industrial complexes like nuclear power plants. It can even make professional sports teams perform better."--

Rivers of power : how a natural force raised kingdoms, destroyed civilizations, and shapes our world / by Smith, Laurence C.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.From a renowned geographer and professor of earth, planetary and space sciences, a sweeping natural history of rivers and their complex and ancient relationship with human civilization. Rivers, more than any road, technology, or political leader, have shaped the course of civilization. They have opened frontiers, founded cities, settled borders, and fed billions. They promote life, forge peace, grant power, and capriciously destroy everything in their path. And even as they have become increasingly domesticated, rivers remain a powerful global force, one that is more critical than ever to our future. In Rivers of Power, geographer Laurence Smith takes a deep dive into the timeless and vastly underappreciated relationship between rivers and civilization as we know it. Rivers are of course important to us in all the obvious ways (like water supply, sanitation, transport, etc.). But they also shape us in less obvious ways. Massive amounts of river water support the global food trade; huge volumes are consumed to provide the world's electricity -- not just by hydropower, but by coal, nuclear, and natural gas power plants too; most of our globally important cities are positioned on the banks of rivers or river deltas. The territories of nations, their cultural and economic ties to one another, and the migrations of people trace to rivers and the topographic divides they carve on the world. Beautifully told and expansive in scope, Rivers of Power, reveals how and why rivers have so profoundly shaped civilization, and examines the importance this vast, arterial power holds for our present, past, and future.

Happy indoor garden / by Janatka, Miranda,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Indoor plants have never been so important as we realize the power of their presence in making us feel calmer, more connected to nature, and nurturing. But dying plants around the house are negatives you could do without, and this unique guide from an indoor plant expert explains what plants you should keep in each room, and where. It contains easy to understand but scientifically accurate information on what in a room affects plants (light, humidity, temperature), what typically makes each room different, and what makes distinct parts of a room different (microclimates). A plant that might work on a coffee table might not work on a bookshelf, for example. It discusses in detail which plants suit which room and how to care for them so that you and the plant are happy. It has added information on how to arrange the plants to make stunning arrangements for your home interior. This is the most practical guide to building an indoor garden, room by room, to ensure a happy home.
