Book Review: The Way of the Superior Man [Deida]

I’m a strong atheist and scientist and therefore I am totally suspicious of anything which looks or sounds like religion or “spiritual fluff”. In that regard, it’s a wonder I even touched a book with a subtitle such as “A Spiritual Guide to Mastering the Challenges of Women, Work, and Sexual Desire”. But anyway, being [...]

Team Dynamics with Steve Zissou

History has known many famous teams. Be it Pierre and Marie Curie who changed physics almost 100 years ago, a bunch of daredevil friends who shared cigarettes in the trenches of the great wars of the last century (while maybe later going together to Norway to blow up Nazi bunkers), the A-Team who helped those in need of help while being chased by the military police, up to present day football teams like the FC Barcelona, gangs of corporate lawyer vultures and adventurers like Team Zissou from “The Life Aquatic”, which I will use as an example throughout this article.

While you can never guarantee that a plane doesn’t crash, you can actually prove the complete [...]

Book Review: Social Intelligence [Goleman]

Social intelligence is a concept with political connotations. A concept which may appear to redefine or downplay the importance of intelligence in the traditional sense. I do not agree with this kind of feelgood thinking about the hard realities of life. Having said that, intelligence is but one of the requirements for society to function [...]
