Boeken over Alzheimer worden eigenlijk nooit geschreven door de patiënt zelf. We kennen het boek 'Hersenschimmen' van Bernlef, waarin hij zich uitstekend verplaatst in het leven van Maarten Klein. Maar als je zelf de diagnose Alzheimer krijgt, is het toch anders...

Daarnaast is het een bijzonder boek omdat de auteur openhartig is en alle...

Maak kennis met de provocatieve psychologie van Jeffrey Wijnberg:

In het diepste van de ziel is niets te zien

'Assertiviteit is beter', 'boosheid moet geuit worden', 'angst is een slechte raadgever', 'je kunt het wel, als je maar wilt'... Wijnberg gelooft er helemaal niets van en pleit voor een nieuwe, stevige psychologische aanpak.

De kunst van het kwetsen

Krenken, stangen, kleineren, jennen, schofferen, treiteren: er zijn talloze manieren waarop mensen elkaar verbaal naar het leven kunnen sta...

Does working abroad appeal to you? Does it sound like a great adventure or a perfect get away from your home country? Or perhaps the opportunity to experience a new country and a new culture? Do not underestimate the situation: career hunting abroad requires more than translating your CV! Different cultures all require their own approach.

An ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach will not work. Stop sending out hundreds of more or less similar applications every week. Each job, employer and count...

Cornelis Cornelisz. Matelief werd rond 1570 geboren in Rotterdam. Zijn familie verdiende haar geld in handel en scheepvaart; goede contacten met vertegenwoordigers van stedelijke en gewestelijke overheden kwamen daarbij uitstekend van pas. Binnen dat netwerk van invloedrijke en vermogende families groeide de interesse voor de plannen tot oprichting van een organisatie die zich zou richten op de handel met Azië. Matelief was in 1602 één van de oprichters van de Rotterdamse Kamer van de Vere...

Imaginations, expectations, and motivations that propel the pursuit of migration
