'Groundbreaking ... [provides] a deep history of the invention of the "normal" mind as one of the most damaging and oppressive tools of capitalism. To read it is to see the world more clearly' Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes'Argues that a radical politics of neurodiversity is necessary, not only for neurodivergent folk, but for our collective liberation' Professor Hel Spandler, editor, Asylum magazine'A vital book that kindles the flames of a neurodivergent revolution' Beatrice Adler-Bolton, co-author of Health CommunismNeurodiversity is on the rise. Awareness and diagnoses have exploded in recent years, but we are still missing a wider understanding of how we got here and why. Beyond simplistic narratives of normativity and difference, this groundbreaking book exposes the very myth of the 'normal' brain as a product of intensified capitalism.Exploring the rich histories of the neurodiversity and disability movements, Robert Chapman shows how the rise of capitalism created an 'empire of normality' that transformed our understanding of the body into that of a productivity machine. Neurodivergent liberation is possible - but only by challenging the deepest logics of capitalism. Empire of Normality is an essential guide to understanding the systems that shape our bodies, minds and deepest selves - and how we can undo them.Robert Chapman is a neurodivergent philosopher who has taught at King's College London and Bristol University. They are currently Assistant Professor in Critical Neurodiversity Studies at Durham University. They blog at Psychology Today and at Critical Neurodiversity.

We must learn our history to discuss our future. While the world and our nation struggles in the grip of our current responses, take a few hours and read this book. The inevitability of another pandemic is real. This book will prepare you for it.The Next Human Die Off is a well-researched history of wars, plagues, famines, pandemics, and the responses that human civilization has had to these evolutionary events. Spanning the last five thousand years of recorded human history, from the Sumerian culture to the virus pandemic in our modern world, this book brings a fresh approach and a dire warning to the questions of human population, fossil fuels, and climate change."First time author and everyman Robert Chapman has written a book that weaves historical facts and scientific predictions to discuss a future that everyone is afraid to contemplate."If you haven't yet read "The Next Human Die Off", then considered yourself warned. This book will make you question how you look at humans and the ability of our planet to sustain us. Mr Chapman brings a historical perspective to evolutionary human die offs due to famines, disease, and natural disasters, and then adds current global events to that perspective. The result is a convincing argument that the next human die off is coming, and that climate change may provide the tipping point. With this new book, Mr Chapman joins the ranks of climate change activists such as Greta Thunberg, David Wallace-Wells, and Elizabeth Kolbert."Don't listen to anyone else's opinion of this book. Read it for yourself, and join the discussion about the future of our race. It might be the most important conversation you've ever had."Be prepared before you read this book. There are times in "The Next Human Die Off" where the ideas and suggestions that Mr Chapman advances will make you angry. There are other sections of this book that will make you angry at the people who have brought this coming calamity upon us. However, make no mistake - the facts are real. His conclusions, while divisive, will open a discussion that may prepare you and your family for the next human die off."This book is the most politically divisive book on climate change on the market today."
Training Specialists come in all shapes and sizes, and possess varying skills to help participants learn and understand. We cover every industry that exists, from financial contact centers, to personal fitness, to manufacturing industries, to defense. The tools and expertise used depends largely upon the management staff at any organization. The level of engagement of management has much to do with how a "trainer" flexes their knowledge, and helps drive superior business results. The purpose of this book is to provide, based on my years of experience in learning and development, a common sense methodology and understanding of the concepts, strategies, and techniques to make training a success at your organization. My goal is to provide Learning Specialists (prospective Trainers, Training Managers, Directors of Training) with tools, references, and structure to assist in the planning and development of training. We are a special breed-we share a true passion to help others-we are more people-centric, not machine-centric, and we tend to see the world through the shared success of employees we interact with, not necessarily the increased production that our efforts may affect. We are concerned about human assets, not machine centers or processes. Now saying this, it does not mean we don't have Operational Excellence imperatives in mind...we tend to gravitate more toward the human condition than the downtime or uptime condition. Whether we work in a cost center or profit center, it is our charge to provide learning opportunities for those around us that meet direct business needs. This reference guide will provide what I've gathered over years in training, and I intend to share my successes and failures so we can all learn a little more. Believe me, there have been plenty of both!
