Alan page Fiske

The Free Press

pokkari
Alan Page Fiske shares insight on the basic models of social relations in this “important book that will be of value to all psychologists with an interest in organization, culture, economic behavior, and decision making” (Richard E. Nisbett, University of Michigan).Structures of Social Life examines the relational models of social relationships, including how they are implicit in earlier social theories, how they have emerged into diverse domains of social action and though, and how they produce diverse and complex social forms. Aiming to create conversations and debate about social relationships and the models that structure them, Alan Page Fiske provides insight on the four elementary forms of human relations.

Original Sin: A Cultural History

Original Sin: A Cultural History

Alan Jacobs

HarperOne
2009
nidottu
Essayist and biographer Alan Jacobs introduces us to the world of original sin, which he describes as not only a profound idea but a necessary one. As G. K. Chesterton explains, "Only with original sin can we at once pity the beggar and distrust the king."Do we arrive in this world predisposed to evil? St. Augustine passionately argued that we do; his opponents thought the notion was an insult to a good God. Ever since Augustine, the church has taught the doctrine of original sin, which is the idea that we are not born innocent, but as babes we are corrupt, guilty, and worthy of condemnation. Thus started a debate that has raged for centuries and done much to shape Western civilization.Perhaps no Christian doctrine is more controversial; perhaps none is more consequential. Blaise Pascal claimed that "but for this mystery, the most incomprehensible of all, we remain incomprehensible to ourselves." Chesterton affirmed it as the only provable Christian doctrine. Modern scholars assail the idea as baleful and pernicious. But whether or not we believe in original sin, the idea has shaped our most fundamental institutions--our political structures, how we teach and raise our young, and, perhaps most pervasively of all, how we understand ourselves. In Original Sin, Alan Jacobs takes readers on a sweeping tour of the idea of original sin, its origins, its history, and its proponents and opponents. And he leaves us better prepared to answer one of the most important questions of all: Are we really, all of us, bad to the bone?

As the Romans Do: An American Family's Italian Odyssey

As the Romans Do: An American Family's Italian Odyssey

Alan Epstein

William Morrow Company
2001
nidottu
A celebration of the character and style of one of the world's most spectacular cities This vibrant insider's view of the most mature city on earth is the perfect companion for anyone who loves anything Italian. In 1995, after a twenty-year love affair with Italy, Alan Epstein fulfilled his dream to live in Rome. In As the Romans Do, he celebrates the spirit of this stylish, dramatic, ancient city that formed the hub of a far-flung empire and introduced the Mediterranean culture to the rest of the world. He also reveals today's Roman men and women in all their appealing contradictions: their gregarious caffe culture; inborn artistic flair; passionate appreciation of good food; instinctive mistrust of technology; showy sex appeal; ingrained charm and expressiveness; surprisingly unusual attitudes toward marriage and religion; and much, much more.

Gallipoli

Gallipoli

Alan Moorehead

HARPER PERENNIAL
2002
nidottu
The classic account of one of the most tragic battles in modern history."The story is told superbly. Because Mr. Moorehead knows what a battlefield looks, smells, and sounds like, the reader gets the 'feel' of the battle....I have read no better descriptive writing about either world war." -- Drew Middleton, New York TimesWhen Turkey unexpectedly sided with Germany in World War I, Winston Churchill as First Sea Lord for the British conceived a plan of smashing through the Dardanelles, reopening the Straits to Russian shipping, and immobilizing the Turks.On the night of March 18, 1915, this plan nearly succeeded--the Turks were virtually beaten. But poor communication left the Allies in the dark, allowing the Turks to prevail and the Allies to suffer a crushing quarter-million casualties. A vivid chronicle of adventure, suspense, agony, and heroism, Gallipoli brings to life the tragic waste in human life, the physical horror, and the sheer heartbreaking folly of fighting for impossible objectives with inadequate means on unknown, unmapped terrain.

"A truly great work--massive, monumental. . . . A wonderful story of heroism, a superb feat of research. . . . The best book of its kind." --Baltimore SunRelive all the thrills and adventure of Alan Moorehead's classic bestseller The White Nile--the daring exploration of the Nile River in the second half of the nineteenth century, which was at that time the most mysterious and impenetrable region on earth. Capturing in breathtaking prose the larger-than-life personalities of such notable figures as Stanley, Livingstone, Burton and many others, The White Nile remains a seminal work in tales of discovery and escapade, filled with incredible historical detail and compelling stories of heroism and drama.

The Blue Nile

Alan Moorehead

HARPER PERENNIAL

In the first half of the nineteenth century, only a small handful of Westerners had ventured into the regions watered by the Nile River on its long journey from Lake Tana in Abyssinia to the Mediterranean-lands that had been forgotten since Roman times, or had never been known at all. In The Blue Nile, Alan Moorehead continues the classic, thrilling narration of adventure he began in The White Nile, depicting this exotic place through the lives of four explorers so daring they can be considered among the world's original adventurers -- each acting and reacting in separate expeditions against a bewildering background of slavery and massacre, political upheaval and all-out war.

The Narnian

The Narnian

Alan Jacobs

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS INC
2008
nidottu
A journey into the imagination of C.S. Lewis explores the themes and life events that contributed to The Chronicles of Narnia, the most enduring classics of children's literature C.S. Lewis was one of the intellectual giants of the 20th century and arguably the most influential Christian writer of his day. Yet among his poetry, literary history and criticism, novels and Christian apologetics stands a unique, delightfully imaginative children's series called The Chronicles of Narnia, which have become enduring classics. Alan Jacobs takes this imaginary world of Narnia and uses the themes and stories found within to explore the imaginative life of C.S. Lewis. Not just a conventional, straightforward biography of Lewis, Jacobs instead seeks a more elusive quarry: an understanding of the way Lewis's experiences, both direct and literary, formed themselves into patterns--themes that then shaped his thought and writings, especially the stories of Narnia.

Sultana: Surviving the Civil War, Prison, and the Worst Maritime Disaster in American History

Sultana: Surviving the Civil War, Prison, and the Worst Maritime Disaster in American History

Alan Huffman

HARPER PERENNIAL
2010
nidottu
In April 1865, the steamboat Sultana slowly moved up the Mississippi River, its overtaxed engines straining under the weight of twenty-four hundred passengers--mostly Union soldiers, recently paroled from Confederate prison camps. At 2 a.m., three of Sultana's four boilers exploded. Within twenty minutes, the boat went down in flames, and an estimated seventeen hundred lives were lost. The worst maritime disaster in American history, the sinking of the Sultana is a forgotten tragedy lost in the turmoil of the times--the war's end, the assassination of President Lincoln, the pursuit of John Wilkes Booth. Alan Huffman presents this harrowing story in gripping and vivid detail and paints a moving portrait of four individual soldiers who survived the Civil War's final hell to make it back home.

The Wall Street Journal Essential Guide to Management

The Wall Street Journal Essential Guide to Management

Alan Murray

HarperBusiness
2010
nidottu
In recent decades, some of the world's best and brightest have devoted countless hours to understanding management - what works, and what doesn't. There are more than 1500 credible schools offering master's degrees in business administration around the world, at least a hundred magazines and newspapers devoted to the subject, and more than three thousand new books on the topic each year. What's been missing is a simple and convenient way to disseminate the best ideas and practices to managers everywhere, at all levels and in all kinds of industries and organisations - a group of people who, by definition, lead very busy lives. "The Wall Street Journal Essential Guide to Management" is an effort to remedy that problem by drawing the best from the existing body of knowledge and research, and to summarise it in one place, in a simple, clear, and useful way. If you are a new manager, or even an experienced manager, you'll want to read this book from beginning to end. Others may choose to use it as a resource or reference. It is organised by topics, each introduced by simple questions frequently asked by managers, and offers suggestions for further reading on each topic. While not encyclopaedic in its approach, the book focuses on classic and contemporary works that have resonated with the broadest audiences and that have been recommended by members of the "Wall Street Journal" CEO Council - a group of chief executives of large and successful global companies, who have learned a good deal about leadership and management on their way to the top.
