Titre : The Leeter Spiaking Singlish : Book 2 Idioms Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Li Sui GWEE Editeur : Marshall Cavendish Children Année de publication : 2022 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789815009613 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Following on the success of his 2017 hit, Spiaking Singlish: A Companion to How Singaporeans Communicate, Gwee Li Sui is back with a series of three “Leeter” books covering the quintessential features of Singlish, Singapore's unofficial language – written in Singlish! In this second volume, we learn that Singlish is not just about lah and leh: “Singlish oso got idiom and proverbs wor. Such kinds of expression make natural sense within a language and often cannot be translated without lugi-ing some depth. Consider how much shiokness ‘blur like sotong' and ‘bak chew tak stamp' bring to a situation with people being tekanded. Use ‘pattern more than badminton', ‘mee siam mai hum', or ‘last time policeman wear shorts', and you'll have pecah lobang your true fewling on a matter without saying more.” The AuthorDr Gwee Li Sui is a former academic who now labours in the arts as a poet, writer, editor, literary critic and graphic artist.

Titre : Escape From System 1 : Unlocking the Science Behind the New Way of Innovation Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Andreas RAHARSO Editeur : Marshall Cavendish Children Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789815009316 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Next Practice now trumps Best Practice. The Holy Grail that mammoth Fortune 500 companies, nimble start-ups and driven individuals eagerly seek in their quest for success. With norms hyper disrupted in the post-Covid economy and innovation waves getting shorter and quicker, the race to be first in innovation is now nail-bitingly intense. Design thinking, Blue Ocean, Working Backwards – there are innovation frameworks to fit every need and context.Yet it remains elusive.What if humans were simply not made to innovate? That our brains were designed to be efficient, not innovative, to ensure we survived as a species.In this surprisingly myth-busting book, Andreas Raharso debunks the assumption that human beings can continue thinking bigger and creating better as long as we have the right tools. Using research spanning from Nobel Laureate Herbert Simon's findings, the latest in MIT cognitive science labs and Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman's groundbreaking work on System 1 and System 2 of the human brain, he proves that we can innovate only if we are able to escape from System 1.In a clear step-by-step way, Dr. Raharso shows us how to unlock ourselves from System 1, and swiftly trail blaze with an avant-garde course of action to be the first, and the best, next big thing.The AuthorDr. Andreas Raharso was the former Dean of Hay Group Global Research Centre, an affiliation of Harvard University and funded by the Singapore Government. A thought-leader in disruptive innovation, he created the original 1st People Analytic module at INSEAD Business School, and two postgraduate modules, Next Practice and People Strategy, at the National University of Singapore Business School. Both schools rank among the top business schools globally. Andreas has also collaborated with leading businesses such as Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Alibaba, Airbnb, GE, P&G and decacorn Gojek. He holds degrees in Economics, Finance and Data Science, and a Ph.D in Management.

Titre : Notes from an Even Smaller Island : 20th Anniversary edition Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Neil HUMPHREYS Editeur : Marshall Cavendish Children Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789814974905 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Knowing nothing of Singapore in the 1990s, a young Englishman, Neil Humphreys, arrives in the land of “air-conned” shopping centres and Lee Kuan Yew. From the aunties in the hawker centres to expats dressed as bananas, from Singlish to kiasuism, and from Singaporeans at home to Singaporeans abroad, Humphreys explores all aspects of Singaporean life, taking in the sights, dissecting the culture and illuminating each place and person with his perceptive and witty observations.Written by someone who is at once both insider and outsider, the book is a wonderfully funny and disarmingly honest portrait of Singapore and its people.That was the original synopsis. And a cult classic was born.First published in 2001, Notes from an Even Smaller Island became an extraordinary success, selling tens of thousands of copies. It popped up on the national bestseller several times over the years and launched Neil's stellar writing career.This 20th anniversary edition contains new material; Neil has gone back and re-evaluated his first book, looking at what he got right, what he definitely got wrong and updating readers on key characters, stories and crazy incidents. He also includes never-previously published photos to prove – once and for all – that every word of his irreverent work was true.The AuthorNeil Humphreys is one of Singapore's best-selling authors with 26 titles to his name. His works on the country – from Notes from an Even Smaller Island (2001) to Saving a Sexier Island: Notes from an Old Singapore (2015) – are among the most popular titles in the last 20 years. Writing as NJ Humphreys, he is also behind the highly popular Princess Incognito middle grade children's series. His illustrated Abbie Rose and the Magic Suitcase adventures are funny eco-adventures about a smart, feisty girl on a mission to save endangered animals. He is also a prolific crime fiction writer. His titles include Match Fixer (2010), Premier Leech (2011), Marina Bay Sins (2014), Rich Kill Poor Kill (2016) and Bloody Foreigners (2021).
