Cultures of growth : how the new science of mindset can transform individuals, teams, and organizations / by Murphy, Mary C.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Social psychologist Mary Murphy offers a groundbreaking reconsideration of individual and team success -- showing how to create and sustain a growth mindset in any organization's culture. In Cultures of Growth, Dweck's protege, Mary Murphy, a social psychologist at both Stanford and Indiana University, shows that mindset transcends individuals. A growth mindset culture can transform any group, team, or classroom to reach breakthroughs while also helping each person achieve their potential. Murphy's original decade-long research reveals that organizations and teams more geared toward growth inspire deeper learning, spark collaboration, spur innovation, and build trust necessary for risk-taking and inclusion. They are also less likely to cheat, cut corners, or steal each other's ideas. And they're more likely to achieve top results.

Birds, sex, and beauty : the extraordinary implications of Charles Darwin's strangest idea / by Ridley, Matt,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.In all animals, mating is a deal. But few creatures behave as if sex is a simple transaction. Many treat it with reverence, suspicion, angst and violence. In the case of the Black Grouse, the bird at the centre of Matt Ridley's investigation, the males dance and sing for hours a day, for several exhausting months, in an exhausting and sometimes deadly ritual called a 'lek'. To prepare for the ordeal, they grow, preen and display fancy, twisted, bold-colored feathers. But why are males the eager sellers and females the discerning buyers? Why do increasingly baroque and bizarre males put themselves at risk of attack by circling hawks and rival birds? And why are these displays considered beautiful by humans at all?

Firescaping your home : a manual for readiness in wildfire country / by Edwards, Adrienne L.,author.; Schleiger, Rachel,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Destructive wildfires are becoming larger, hotter, and more frequent. Since 2000, an average of 7.1 million acres have burned across the US, more than double the average acreage that burned in the 1990s. At the same time, more people are choosing to live adjacent to fire-prone wildlands. There is currently no comprehensive guide to help homeowners minimize wildfire risks while optimizing the ecological integrity of wildland areas. Living in fire-prone landscapes should not mean that you must scrape all vegetation hundreds of feet away from structures. This book will empower readers to evaluate fire risks on their own property and take simple, actionable steps to mitigate them. The book will include specific recommendations, examples, and resources for planting and maintenance, making it an essential resource for western homeowners"--
