Abstract:
Dive into “Mosaic of Thought,” a captivating collection of 12 insightful articles exploring the intricacies of contemporary life. This book challenges conventional thinking with themes such as “Are We Manufacturing Countless Bricks in the Wall?” questioning conformity in education and society, and “Of Apes, Leaders, and Organisations,” delving into the primal roots of leadership. Navigate learning complexities in “Is Your Map Meeting Your Learner’s Map?” and confront harassment in “Bullies of All Colours.” Discover the culture of blame in “Blame is the Name of the Game,” and re-imagine cartoons with “Re-discovering Tom and Jerry Through a Quantum Lens.” Each article offers unique perspectives, from fleeting moments in “The Irreplaceable Moments Explored” to impactful first impressions in “Of Halos and Horns.” With humour and seriousness, “A Comedy of Ctrl C and Ctrl V” critiques digital originality, while “Echoes of Influence: A Caveat” warns of the impact of words. This collection is a thought-provoking mosaic for understanding the multifaceted canvas of life.
