College Success
University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing · 2015
Our primary goal in writing College Success is to help you succeed in college. According to Department of Education data, 30 percent of college freshmen leave school in their first year and as many as 50 percent never graduate. College Success is designed to help change that. College Success has a student-friendly format arranged to help you develop the essential skills and provide the information you need to succeed in college. This is not a textbook full of theory and extensive detail that merely discusses student success; rather, this is a how-to manual for succeeding in college. The book provides realistic, practical guidance ranging from study skills to personal health, from test taking to managing time and money. Furthermore, College Success is accessible—information is presented concisely and as simply as possible. College Success has the following features to help you achieve your goals: Each chapter asks you to evaluate yourself because success starts with recognizing your strengths and weaknesses, your hopes and desires, and your own personal, individual realities. You'll develop your own goals based on these self-assessments, determining what success in college really means for you as an individual. Throughout the book, you will find numerous interactive activities created to help you improve your skills. To assist you with this, the material is presented in easily digestible “chunks” of information so you can begin applying it immediately in your own life—and get the most out of your college education.

Better Together: How We Build Economic, Political, And Environmental Sustainability
Fazil Acar · University of Leeds Open Books · 2025
This book explores how economic, political and environmental sustainability can be strengthened when individuals, institutions and societies work together. Part I traces the story of human progress, showing how freedom, innovation and shared prosperity have evolved side by side. Parts II and III examine how national economies and labour markets shape well-being, emphasising the importance of quality work, high-value production and fair opportunities. Part IV turns to money, finance and macro-economic policy, explaining how monetary systems, central banking and exchange-rate dynamics affect stability and equality. Part V extends this to global trade and investment, illustrating how economic interdependence requires political cooperation. Finally, Part VI focuses on sustainability itself, demonstrating why markets alone cannot safeguard the environment or social cohesion. Drawing on behavioural economics, institutional design and active citizenship, the book shows how integrated approaches can meet today’s most pressing challenges. Blending historical insight, economic theory and real-world examples, Better Together argues that we are strongest when we align our economic choices, political systems and environmental responsibilities. It offers an accessible and practical guide for students, policymakers and citizens seeking to build resilient, fair and sustainable societies.
