IN THE NEWS:

 

"Pink [magazine] exists to promote this new generation of women who are making a significant impact on the world through their work and their lives--while being true to themselves." The magazine also distributes a daily e-mail "Little Pink Book" ("guide to fashion, style and corner office smarts") that often has worthwhile, brief articles.  The one for 7/8/09 had items on a New York Times best-seller "Nudge" ("explains how to improve problem solving by applying the new science of 'choice architecture'"), on new research that "shows that when you're in La La Land, you're actually better at resolving dilemmas than when you're paying attention," and on "Problem Solving 101: A Simple Book for Smart People."
