Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Our brains evolved to solve the survival problems of our Stone Age ancestors, so when faced with modern day situations that are less extreme, they often encounter a mismatch. Our primitive brains put us on the wrong foot by responding to stimuli that - in prehistoric times - would have prompted behaviour that was beneficial. If you've ever felt an anxious fight or flight response to a presenting at a board meeting, equivalent to facing imminent death by sabre-toothed tiger, then you have experienced a mismatch. Mismatch is about the clash between our biology and our culture. It is about the dramatic contrast between the first few million years of human history - when humans lived as hunters and gatherers in small-scale societies - and the past twelve thousand years following the agricultural revolution which have led us to comfortable lives in a very different social structure. Has this rapid transition been good for us? How do we, using our primitive minds, try to survive in a modern information society that radically changes every ten years or so? Ronald Giphart and Mark van Vugt show that humans have changed their environment so drastically that the chances for mismatch have significantly increased, and these conflicts can have profound consequences. Reviewed through mismatch glasses, social, societal, and technological trends can be better understood, ranging from the popularity of Facebook and internet porn, to the desire for cosmetic surgery, to our attitudes towards refugees. Mismatches can also affect our physical and psychological well-being, in terms of our attitudes to happiness, physical exercise, choosing good leaders, or finding ways to feel better at home or work. Finally, Mismatch gives us an insight into politics and policy which could enable governments, institutions and businesses to create an environment better suited to human nature, its potential and its constraints. This book is about converting mismatches into matches. The better your life is matched to how your mind operates, the greater your chances of leading a happy, healthy and productive life. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Leichte Risse. "Het is de grenzeloze tragiek van mijn leven dat ik de drang heb mij ten alle tijden ongeliefd te maken, terwijl ik eigenlijk overstroomd word door genegenheid. Hoe zou iemand een hekel aan mij kunnen hebben? vraag ik mij vertwijfeld af? Mijn probleem is waarschijnlijk dat ik zo volmaakt tevreden ben over mezelf. Ik ben mijn beste vriend, mijn favoriete schrijver, mijn minnaar, mijn bondgenoot, door dik en dun."Aan het woord is Giph, de hoofdpersoon uit de gelijknamige 2e roman van Ronald Giphart (17 december 1965).Giph, de hoofdpersoon, vertelt met vaart en bijtende vrolijkheid over het studentenmilieu anno nu, door hem 'een groot geil gezellig feest' genoemd. Soms hevig ontroerd, soms met een meedogenloos gevoel voor pathetiek, maar altijd in de contramine beschrijft Giph zijn studentenhuis, een wintersportvakantie in Veyssonaz, het Boekenbal, de Nederlandse Toiletteren, het Volksmuseum Limburg, een zelfmoordpoging en zijn vele amoureuze escapades.

Ik ook van jou is het verhaal van twee blakende jonge schrijvers die op stel en sprong naar de Dordogne zijn gereisd voor een, zoals Fräser het noemt, 'grote queeste naar literatuur en seks'. Verweven in deze met onbevangenheid beschreven, vrolijke kanotocht is het aangrijpende verhaal over de fatale liefde van Ronald voor de mysterieuze Reza.
