And we promise, you won t like the tagline.A few years back, a best seller called Why Johnny Can t Read shocked the education establishment and revived the lost art of phonics. Now, Why Johnny Can t Brand blows the lid off the marketing establishment by reviving the lost art of the Big Idea. According to Bill Schley and Carl Nichols, Jr., modern branding is a daily choice between real, muscle-building ideas and an immense smorgasbord of empty-caloried junk. The stakes are huge, especially in a world with 155 kinds of shampoo. So why do so many good companies choose wrong? In fact, why do most fail to differentiate at all handing what some call an unfair advantage to the few who do? The surprising answers, and the exclusive, eight-week prescription to fix it, are here in Why Johnny Can t Brand.

The DSI is the thing you do that s superlative, important, believable, memorable and tangible the difference that makes people want to buy you. It puts you in a category of one.In the often funny, page-turning style of two award-winning, former Madison Avenue communicators, Schley and Nichols explain: 1.Why real branding is the opposite of what you think 2. How positioning turns your brand asset from fool s gold to real gold 3. Why Harvard and Stanford MBAs are the last to get it (but they can learn this too) 4. How to find your Big Idea in about eight weeks then keep it... and so much more.In a world with 300 million messages whizzing by every second, it gives us the ultimate advantage an inspiring, power-packed return to the secret of the idea centered brand. \"Publisher\'s Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.

Like Jared Diamond\'s Guns, Germs and Steel, Mapping Human History is a groundbreaking synthesis of science and history. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including the latest genetic research, linguistic evidence, and archaeological findings, Olson reveals the surprising unity among modern humans and demonstrates just how naive some of our ideas about our human ancestry have been (Discover).Olson offers a genealogy of all humanity, explaining, for instance, why everyone can claim Julius Caesar and Confucius as forebears. Olson also provides startling new perspectives on the invention of agriculture, the peopling of the Americas, the origins of language, the history of the Jews, and more. An engaging and lucid account, Mapping Human History will forever change how we think about ourselves and our relations with others. Once in a Generation a book such as African Exodus emerges to transform the way we see ourselves. This landmark book, which argues that our genes betray the secret of a single racial stock shared by all of modern humanity, has set off one of the most bitter debates in contemporary science.We emerged out of Africa, the authors contend, less than 100,000 years ago and replaced all other human populations. Employing persuasive fossil and genetic evidence (the proof is in the blood, not just the bones) and an exceptionally readable style, Stringer and McKie challenge long-held beliefs that suggest we evolved separately as different races with genetic roots reaching back two million years.Superb....This delightful and extremely well written book will stimulate all who read it to ponder the origins and meaning of our humanity. -- Don Johanson, author of Lucy A landmark, radically uplifting account of our species\' progress from one of the world\'s pre-eminent thinkers - with breakthrough insights into the power of diversity and our capacity to tackle climate change.Completely brilliant and utterly original...a book for our epoch. -- Jon Snow, former presenter Channel 4 NewsAstounding in scope and insight...provides the keys to the betterment of our species. -- Nouriel Roubini, author of Crisis EconomicsA masterful sweep through the human odyssey...if you liked Sapiens, you\'ll love this. -- Lewis Dartnell, author of OriginsIn a captivating journey from the dawn of human existence to the present, world-renowned economist and thinker Oded Galor offers an intriguing solution to two of humanity\'s great mysteries.Why are humans the only species to have escaped - only very recently - the subsistence trap, allowing us to enjoy a standard of living that vastly exceeds all others? And why have we progressed so unequally around the world, resulting in the great disparities between nations that exist today? Immense in scope and packed with astounding connections, Galor\'s gripping narrative explains how technology, population size, and adaptation led to a stunning phase change in the human story a mere two hundred years ago. But by tracing that same journey back in time and peeling away the layers of influence - colonialism, political institutions, societal structure, culture - he arrives also at an explanation of inequality\'s ultimate causes: those ancestral populations that enjoyed fruitful geographical characteristics and rich diversity were set on the path to prosperity, while those that lacked it were disadvantaged in ways still echoed today.As we face ecological crisis across the globe, The Journey of Humanity is a book of urgent truths and enduring relevance, with lessons that are both hopeful and profound: gender equality, investment in education, and balancing diversity with social cohesion are the keys not only to our species\' thriving, but to its survival. Somewhere in Africa, more than a million years ago, a line of apes began to rear their young differently than their Great Ape ancestors. From this new form of care came new ways of engaging and understanding each other. How such singular human capacities evolved, and how they have kept us alive for thousands of generations, is the mystery revealed in this bold and wide-ranging new vision of human emotional evolution.Mothers and Others finds the key in the primatologically unique length of human childhood. If the young were to survive in a world of scarce food, they needed to be cared for, not only by their mothers but also by siblings, aunts, fathers, friends--and, with any luck, grandmothers. Out of this complicated and contingent form of childrearing, Sarah Hrdy argues, came the human capacity for understanding others. Mothers and others teach us who will care, and who will not.From its opening vision of apes on a plane to descriptions of baby care among marmosets, chimpanzees, wolves, and lions to explanations about why men in hunter-gatherer societies hunt together, Mothers and Others is compellingly readable. But it is also an intricately knit argument that ever since the Pleistocene, it has taken a village to raise children--and how that gave our ancient ancestors the first push on the path toward becoming emotionally modern human beings.
