The Armor-CAP Playbook: Resilient Strategies For Institutional Investors
English | 2026 | ISBN: 1800618689 | 273 Pages | PDF (True) | 9 MB
ARMOR-CAP (Allocation for Resilient Markets and Operational Readiness-Capital Allocation Protection) is the first comprehensive framework that enables asset owners, portfolio managers, and policymakers to quantify, score, and actively manage strategic fragility, going far beyond today's Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) labels and enterprise risk checklists. The global investment industry is waking up to a harsh reality: efficiency-first capitalism has left portfolios vulnerable in the face of geopolitical fractures, supply chain disruptions, cyber vulnerabilities, climate extremes, and sudden regulatory realignments. Drawing on 50 years of research in portfolio theory, financial economics, operations management, and national resilience strategy, this book: Defines the five pillars of strategic continuity-sovereign compatibility, supply chain resilience, operational continuity, governance readiness, and policy alignment. Introduces the ARMOR Scoring System, a multidimensional diagnostic tool that maps directly to credit ratings and risk-capital allocation frameworks. Demonstrates step-by-step implementation through stylized, fictionalized scenarios and governance simulations that illustrate how institutional fragility might surface and propagate across portfolios. Provides ready-to-use tools: heat-map worksheets, maturity dashboards, policylanguage inserts, scoring grids, and jurisdictional risk matrices. Shows Chief Investment Officers (CIOs) and boards how to embed ARMOR-CAP within fiduciary mandates, stress-testing, and investment policy statements, without displacing existing ESG or enterprise risk management (ERM) programs. With its blend of rigorous analytics, stylized governance scenarios, and playbook-ready templates, ARMOR-CAP equips institutional investors to transform structural fragility from a hidden liability into a measurable source of long-term resilience and competitive advantage.

The Amazing Power of Networks: A (research-informed) choose your own destiny book
English | 2021 | ISBN: 1913622746 | 171 Pages | EPUB (True) | 5 MB
This book is about our connections to other people and the influence these networks exert over our lives. On the plus side, networks provide us with access to a multitude of resources: from aid and assistance to knowledge and norms. But at the same time, the relationships that link people (or not) are also responsible for a range of social ills. For example, who you are connected to will determine your likely success at school, whether you will go to university, your future career, the neighbourhood in which you will live, who you will marry and whether or not you will die young.

The Algorithmic State of Mind: A Human Rights Frame for Governing News Recommendation
English | 2026 | ISBN: 9462657548 | 213 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 7 MB
In recent years, online news distributors (online news media, social media, search engines and news aggregators) started deploying algorithmic 'recommender systems' to curate users' news overviews. Such systems automatically (de)select and (de)prioritise items to be displayed in user interfaces, thus deciding which ones are visible and in what order.

For many organizations, AI systems continue to underperform. But the problem isn't strategy or investment; it's the outdated monolithic foundation quietly blocking success. Legacy systems, siloed data, and rigid processes create invisible ceilings on what you can actually accomplish.

Drawing on classroom research, case studies and contemporary scholarship, it examines how generative AI challenges traditional pedagogies, assessment practices and professional identities.

Central to the book is the argument that AI's educational value lies not in automation, but in how thoughtfully it is integrated to deepen reflection, creativity and critical inquiry.
