"For Heineken, "rising Africa" is already a reality: the profits it extracts there are almost 50 per cent above the global average, and beer costs more in some African countries than it does in Europe. Heineken claims its presence boosts economic development on the continent. But is this true? Investigative journalist Olivier van Beemen has spent years seeking the answer, and his conclusion is damning: Heineken has hardly benefited Africa at all. On the contrary, there are some shocking skeletons in its African closet: tax avoidance, sexual abuse, links to genocide and other human rights violations, high-level corruption, crushing competition from indigenous brewers, and collaboration with dictators and pitiless anti-government rebels. Heineken in Africa caused a political and media furor on publication in The Netherlands, and was debated in their Parliament. It is an unmissable exposé of the havoc wreaked by a global giant seeking profit in the developing world. "--

In zijn zevende boek onderzoekt de bekende trendanalist Herman Konings de impact van een (pandemische) crisis op de menselijke geest en – bij uitbreiding - op markt en maatschappij. Historici, antropologen en sociologen weten al lang dat aardverschuivende crisissen in staat zijn om sluimerende beschavingsprocessen te versnellen. De onwerkelijke ervaring van een samenleving-op-slot laat diepe sporen na, maar stelt de menselijke geest in staat zich open te stellen voor nieuwe inzichten, attitudes, gedragingen en uitdagingen. Gap the Mind gaat dieper in op die geestverruiming en onderzoekt hoe consu-mensen beschavingsprocessen die al aan de gang zijn, zoals duurzaamheid, gezondheid, bescherming, kennis, digitalisering, urbanisering, globalisering, individualisering en ID-shift een turboboost geven. Kortom, dit is een boek over veerkracht en zelftransformatie in het 'intervirum'.

Microorganisms, viruses and computer programmes encode all the information they need to reproduce and spread themselves. The mechanisms in the living world, in viruses and even in the world of technical systems are amazingly similar. The book shows how great the parallels of these replication systems are and what they are based on. The excursus also leads into the fascinating world of genetics, to the question of what constitutes life, and to software that replicates itself independently. Content: · What is life? · Basic concepts of molecular genetics · Viruses and early genetics · Algorithms and self-replicating computer programs · What is information? · Coding of information in technology and biology · Coevolution of life and technology The author Rafael Ball holds a PHD in biology, is a historian of science and a librarian. He is director of the ETH Library Zurich and lecturer in library science and management. He works on questions of information theory, scholarly communication and the effects of digitisation He is the author of numerous relevant publications, editor of information science journals and speaker at meetings and conferences.
