Bøker av Sarah Turner

Here's some good news and bad news. The bad news: they lied to you. Who? Everyone who spread the fairy tale of the American Dream gained through hard work and company loyalty. There's no such thing as job security in today's world. The good news is you don't need it. You can create your dream life-financial security, location independence, and time freedom-as your own boss. If that sounds scary, Bet on Yourself is for you. Sarah Turner busts the bropreneur narrative and shares her own entrepreneurial journey, illustrating how owning a business doesn't mean what you've been told it means. You already have what it takes. Bet on Yourself shows you how to define entrepreneurship for yourself and gives you the confidence to make it happen. Because you deserve fulfillment-and the world needs more entrepreneurs like you.

Creative metaphor has been of central interest to the cognitive linguistic research community in recent years. However, little is known about what propels people to use metaphor in a creative way. In this Element, the authors identify and explore some of the clues that synaesthesia may provide to help us better understand the factors that drive creativity, with a particular focus on creative metaphor. They identify the factors that seem to trigger the production of creative metaphor in synaesthetes, and explore what this can tell us about creativity in the population more generally. Their findings provide insights into the nature of creativity as it relates to metaphor, emotion and embodied experience. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Do ethnic minorities have the power to alter the course of their fortune when living within a socialist state? In Frontier Livelihoods, the authors focus their study on the Hmong - known in China as the Miao - in the Sino-Vietnamese borderlands, contending that individuals and households create livelihoods about which governments often know little.The product of wide-ranging research over many years, Frontier Livelihoods bridges the traditional divide between studies of China and peninsular Southeast Asia by examining the agency, dynamics, and resilience of livelihoods adopted by Hmong communities in Vietnam and in Chinas Yunnan Province. It covers the reactions to state modernization projects among this ethnic group in two separate national jurisdictions and contributes to a growing body of literature on cross-border relationships between ethnic minorities in the borderlands of China and its neighbors and in Southeast Asia more broadly.
