About World of Books Ltd West Sussex, United Kingdom

Biblio member since 2007

In 2002, World of Books was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet, and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into a global pioneer, dedicated to helping people read more and waste less. Through the World of Books brand, customers can now buy and sell with us! We provide affordable, preloved books to book lovers all around the world, while also giving people the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet by trading in their unwanted books and media for cash. Through the B2B side of our business we've developed technology to help charities sell in bulk, meaning they can clear much needed floor space and make money for great causes at the same time. A new book will be sold once but their stories can be enjoyed by more than one owner. After all, a story doesn't change because it's been read before!

From the publisher

In this book "BRAINCHAINS" you discover your brain, to unleash its full potential in a hyperconnected, multitasking world
Prof Dr Theo Compernolle studied over 600 publications, surveyed 1200 professionals and wrote another easy readable and practical book.As a medical doctor, neuropsychiatrist and scholar with decades of experience in medical schools and business schools in many countries, he integrates science from many domains.

What is your most important tool to be successful as a professional? Your brain!
What do you know about your thinking brain? Nothing.
The sad result: a majority of knowledge workers ruin the performance of their magnificent brain, and obstruct the matchless potential of their brain-ICT collaboration (Information and Communication Technologies).
Taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of your brain you will also get the best results from your brain-ICT synergy.

-Part 1: How your reflecting brain, your archiving brain and your reflex brain influence your thinking
-Part 2: The BrainChains: how always being connected, multitasking, stress and lack of sleep ruin your performance
-Part 3: Practical tools and tips to unchain your brain
-The fifth BrainChain; "Badly Designed Offices" about disastrous open offices is a FREE BOOKLET at www.brainchains.org
