The Voltage Effect: How to Make Good Ideas Great and Great Ideas Scale

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A leading economist answers one of today’s trickiest questions: Why do some great ideas make it big while others fail to take off?

“Brilliant, practical, and grounded in the very latest research, this is by far the best book I’ve ever read on the how and why of scaling.”—Angela Duckworth, CEO of Character Lab and New York Times bestselling author of Grit

ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022—Men’s Journal

“Scale” has become a favored buzzword in the startup world. But scale isn't just about accumulating more users or capturing more market share. It's about whether an idea that takes hold in a small group can do the same in a much larger one—whether you’re growing a small business, rolling out a diversity and inclusion program, or delivering billions of doses of a vaccine.

Translating an idea into widespread impact, says University of Chicago economist John A. List, depends on one thing only: whether it can achieve “high voltage”—the ability to be replicated at scale.

In The Voltage Effect, List explains that scalable ideas share a common set of attributes, while any number of attributes can doom an unscalable idea. Drawing on his original research, as well as fascinating examples from the realms of business, policymaking, education, and public health, he identifies five measurable vital signs that a scalable idea must possess ...

By understanding the science of scaling, we can drive change in our schools, workplaces, communities, and society at large. Because a better world can only be built at scale.

Lost in Thought: The Hidden Pleasures of an Intellectual Life

An invitation to readers from every walk of life to rediscover the impractical splendors of a life of learning

In an overloaded, superficial, technological world, in which almost everything and everybody is judged by its usefulness, where can we turn for escape, lasting pleasure, contemplation, or connection to others? While many forms of leisure meet these needs, Zena Hitz writes, few experiences are so fulfilling as the inner life, whether that of a bookworm, an amateur astronomer, a birdwatcher, or someone who takes a deep interest in one of countless other subjects. Drawing on inspiring examples, from Socrates and Augustine to Malcolm X and Elena Ferrante, and from films to Hitz's own experiences as someone who walked away from elite university life in search of greater fulfillment, Lost in Thought is a passionate and timely reminder that a rich life is a life rich in thought.

Today, when even the humanities are often defended only for their economic or political usefulness, Hitz says our intellectual lives are valuable not despite but because of their practical uselessness. And while anyone can have an intellectual life, she encourages academics in particular to get back in touch with the desire to learn for its own sake, and calls on universities to return to the person-to-person transmission of the habits of mind and heart that bring out the best in us.

Reminding us of who we once were and who we might become, Lost in Thought is a moving account of why renewing our inner lives is fundamental to preserving our humanity.

讓成長不再是「偶發的結果」，而是「精心準備下的必然」。

成長不是結果，而是持續進化的過程。
《零秒思考力》系列暢銷作者最新提案，
協助你立定目標，藉由一步步的行動，人生完美再升級。

人在成長的時候，可以「真切」體會到活著的感覺。
一旦有所成長，便能達成過往無法做到的事，也能發現至今無法察覺的問題，更能獲得過去的自己所無法企及的觀點。
這些可以為我們帶來自己正真切地活著的感覺。

如何才能成功建立自信，並且持續成長？
為了達成，我們應該如何制定計畫，並實際付諸行動？

擁有十多年專業顧問經驗，一手打麥肯錫韓國分公司，日本顧問大師赤羽雄二見證許多菁英獲得更好的人生發展，也看到很多所謂成功人士，其實早已停止成長、對自己完全失去自信。離開校園後，不論公司或是上司、前輩，都不會教你如何繼續成長，市面上的商管類、勵志類書籍也很少聚焦在人生及職場最核心的重點，亦即「成長的方法」。本書將具體提出協助你打破心理障礙，促進成長的七個行動法則。

行動1：果斷降低難度
關鍵在於設定簡單的目標，即使途中停擺也要持續朝目標邁進。

行動2：堅持不痛苦的努力，能令人感到快樂的努力
捨棄「辛苦的努力」和「痛苦的努力」。重點是「持續努力」，所以要尋找相對輕鬆的努力方式。

行動3：設法建立自信
將「自信」轉化為可強化自身能力的思考方式，運用「A4筆記訓練法」及升級版的「靈感筆記」，獎勵努力的自己並提升自信。

行動4：創造良性循環
良性循環並非偶然的結果，而是由自己主動去創造。

行動5：培養樂觀的思維方式
能否正向思考取決於個人想法，悲觀的人當然也能夠轉變為正向思考的人。

行動6：下工夫保持狀態
徹底掌握了解自身的最佳狀態，將努力效益最大化。

行動7：借助他人的力量，與同伴一起成長
與同伴共享彼此的創意和資訊，找出有效達成目標的方法。一起成長，所有人都受益。

Ukraine's Maidan, Russia's War: A Chronicle and Analysis of the Revolution of Dignity

In early 2014, sparked by an assault by their government on peaceful students, Ukrainians rose up against a deeply corrupt, Moscow-backed regime. Initially demonstrating under the banner of EU integration, the Maidan protesters proclaimed their right to a dignified existence; they learned to organize, to act collectively, to become a civil society. Most prominently, they established a new Ukrainian identity: territorial, inclusive, and present-focused with powerful mobilizing symbols.

Driven by an urban "bourgeoisie" that rejected the hierarchies of industrial society in favor of a postmodern heterarchy, a previously passive post-Soviet country experienced a profound social revolution that generated new senses: "Dignity" and "fairness" became rallying cries for millions. Europe as the symbolic target of political aspiration gradually faded, but the impact (including on Europe) of Ukraine's revolution remained. When Russia invaded-illegally annexing Crimea and then feeding continuous military conflict in the Donbas-Ukrainians responded with a massive volunteer effort and touching patriotism. In the process, they transformed their country, the region, and indeed the world.
