Sisters of a Halved Heart
From the author of the highly acclaimed The Magnificent Ruins comes the electric story of two sisters who have to navigate a terrible betrayal from within their family. Indian-American Mira Guhathakurta is a poetry editor at a distinguished literary magazine in New York. She reconnects with Jack, an old acquaintance from college, and feels as if she might have found her soulmate. All that remains is for Jack to meet her family: her beloved father and sister Joy, a high-powered lawyer. But when Joy commits an unthinkable act of betrayal, the sisters are impossibly fractured and their father's heart is broken. As the sisters navigate their tumultuous relationship and Mira starts over, it turns out that Joy isn't the only one who has been or continues to be dishonest. In a propulsive story of love and passion and the ultimate pull of family, Sisters of a Halved Heart examines the lengths we will go to in order to make our own narratives of love work out, the lies we tell ourselves, and the ways in which the truth, often right in front of you, can be impossible to see.

Insight Edge
As Artificial Intelligence reshapes industries, one question looms large: Where does human ingenuity fit? Drawing on decades of experience at organizations such as Insight Dojo, McKinsey and PepsiCo, Vivek Banerji reveals how to generate powerful insights that drive transformational success for organizations. He urges us to embrace the dynamic interplay of art and science, imagination and pragmatism, theory and practice - and to draw inspiration from diverse disciplines, whether it is machine learning, design, statistics, psychology, music, art or sports. Insight Edge makes a compelling case that information alone does not create insight. Instead, it is inherently human qualities - curiosity, analytical thinking, creativity and empathy - that shape meaningful strategies and drive breakthrough outcomes. With real-world examples and actionable frameworks, this book equips leaders and professionals - CEOs, marketers, customer insights experts, strategists, non-profit executives, entrepreneurs, and data analysts - to move beyond algorithms and tap into the irreplaceable power of human insight.

Sexualidade, Gênero E Diversidade: Práticas, Currículo E Saberes
A categoria histórica-política-social e ideológica GÊNERO desenvolveu, entorno de si mesma, um arcabouço com sofisticada diversidade de novas categorias, comportamentos, subversões e adereços. Tamanha rede emaranhada de efeitos sociais desta categoria, nos obriga a reavaliar os reais benefícios de sua fundação e existência, além de nos fazer criar constantemente estratégias de combate às violências alicerçadas na naturalização de gênero como um marcador social de fundamental influência e poder nas sociedades. Gênero é essencialmente uma relação de poder, estabelecida a partir de parâmetros relacionados aos caracteres sexuais primários e secundários. E tão arbitrá...
