Values-Based Multinational Management

Values-Based Multinational Management

Lee A. Tavis; Timothy M. Tavis

University of Notre Dame Press
2009
nidottu
In this timely book, Lee Tavis and Timothy Tavis contend that the values dimension of the actions of multinational firms is becoming increasingly important, given the worldwide integration of economies and peoples. The digital revolution has broadened the reach of globalization and created an informed society that demands higher standards of behavior from the business enterprise; at the same time, multinational corporations have gained power often comparable to that of the nation state, and global society is in need of widely accepted, enduring social and ethical standards. Tavis and Tavis argue that multinational firms must embrace an ethically pro-active stance in their own long-term interests. A strategy of supporting universal human rights, often in partnership with NGOs, offers the greatest potential for success. Values-Based Multinational Management provides an agenda for practical action, with special reference to the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the United Nations Global Compact. It informs and addresses the values concerns of multinational business managers. It presents its examples and analyses in a clear and concise manner and will be of use both to practitioners in the business community and students and scholars of business ethics.

Entire and Meromorphic Functions

Entire and Meromorphic Functions

Lee A. Rubel

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
1996
nidottu
Mathematics is a beautiful subject, and entire functions is its most beautiful branch. Every aspect of mathematics enters into it, from analysis, algebra, and geometry all the way to differential equations and logic. For example, my favorite theorem in all of mathematics is a theorem of R. NevanJinna that two functions, meromorphic in the whole complex plane, that share five values must be identical. For real functions, there is nothing that even remotely corresponds to this. This book is an introduction to the theory of entire and meromorphic functions, with a heavy emphasis on Nevanlinna theory, otherwise known as value-distribution theory. Things included here that occur in no other book (that we are aware of) are the Fourier series method for entire and mero­ morphic functions, a study of integer valued entire functions, the Malliavin­ Rubel extension of Carlson's Theorem (the "sampling theorem"), and the first-order theory of the ring of all entire functions, and a final chapter on Tarski's "High School Algebra Problem," a topic from mathematical logic that connects with entire functions. This book grew out of a set of classroom notes for a course given at the University of Illinois in 1963, but they have been much changed, corrected, expanded, and updated, partially for a similar course at the same place in 1993. My thanks to the many students who prepared notes and have given corrections and comments.

"Jim ran through the woods, more worried about being a target for the sniper if he stopped than he was about being observed. The only problem was that the doors into the carriage house were all in a direct line of fire from where the sniper was located inside the house. Voss had already figured this out. As Jim ran up to the side of the carriage house farthest away from the house, a climbing rope and attached nylon strap dropped out of the window. Jim sent up the M-1 and his pack with the ammo. When the rope came back down Jim climbed into the loop and worked his way up the stonewall with Voss pulling the rope. The stone ended about seven feet below the windowsill and Jim jumped catching the edge of the sill. Voss continued to pull the rope, making the pull up easy and Jim was soon inside. Voss quickly turned and MP-5 in hand ran to the other side of the building, worried that some uninvited guests had gotten closer while he was helping Jim."

Bridging the Gap - A Father's Love
Bridging the Gap - A Father's Love is an enlightening tale of two strangers from different centuries coming together in unforeseen circumstances that only the Creator of the Universe can orchestrate. Despite their cultural differences, beliefs and experiences of their time, Bree Carter and Jinni Hannigan form a powerful bond that takes them on a winding journey of growth, friendship and severe change that bridges the gap to a Father's unconditional love. The reader may find their own spiritual beliefs and human reasoning challenged. Bridging the Gap - A Father's Love came to me one night in a dream, like a movie deep beneath my eyelids, where Jinni was created. When I awoke, I did not want the story to end. So, with Catherine Cookson's novels influencing my writing style and my own sense of humour inherited by my father, I typed the story line out. Funnily enough, as I kept typing, fusions of my own heartache in my youth were divinely woven into the script. In life, we all have a story. Our own narratives are influenced by many factors. Especially during our youth as we search for meaning in our lives. It is during this time, we often find ourselves experimenting for the first time with 'adult concepts' such as sex, drugs and dare I say it - rock 'n' roll For being young, we often think we are invincible, living a life for personal gratification. And sometimes as we get older, we reflect on the trail we have left behind. This story may challenge the reader's spiritual being in ways they may be confronted with making that decision of change that plants that seed of one day crossing that Divine Bridge of Redemption, which closes the gap of their past and eternally connects them to their Maker - their Heavenly Father's love.

Alexis in America

Alexis in America

Lee A. Farrow

Louisiana State University Press
2014
sidottu
In the autumn of 1871, Alexis Romanov, the fourth son of Tsar Alexander II of Russia, set sail from his homeland for an extended journey through the United States and Canada. A major milestone in U.S.-Russia relations, the tour also served Duke Alexis's family by helping to extricate him from an unsuitable romantic entanglement with the daughter of a poet. Alexis in America recounts the duke's progress through the major American cities, detailing his meetings with celebrated figures such as Samuel Morse and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and describing the national self-reflection that his presence spurred in the American people. The first Russian royal ever to visit the United States, Alexis received a tour through post-Civil War America that emphasized the nation's cultural unity. While the enthusiastic American media breathlessly reported every detail of his itinerary and entourage, Alexis visited Niagara Falls, participated in a bison hunt with Buffalo Bill Cody, and attended the Krewe of Rex's first Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans. As word of the royal visitor spread, the public flocked to train depots and events across the nation to catch a glimpse of the grand duke. Some speculated that Russia and America were considering a formal alliance, while others surmised that he had come to the United States to find a bride. The tour was not without incident: many city officials balked at spending public funds on Alexis's reception, and there were rumors of an assassination plot by Polish nationals in New York City. More broadly, the visit highlighted problems on the national level, such as political corruption and persistent racism, as well as the emerging cultural and political power of ethnic minorities and the continuing sectionalism between the North and the South. Lee Farrow joins her examination of these cultural underpinnings to a lively narrative of the grand duke's tour, creating an engaging record of a unique moment in international relations.
Ernst Kurth As Theorist and Analyst

Ernst Kurth As Theorist and Analyst

Lee A. Rothfarb

University of Pennsylvania Press

Ernst Kurth as Theorist and Analyst is the first book length study devoted to the writings of one of this century's most important music theorists. In contrast to previous discussions, Lee A. Rothfarb's study explains Kurth's theories in light of his analyses of specific musical examples. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Kurth approached music primarily from a cognitive rather than a purely technical viewpoint. In a unique kind of experiential analysis, he examined the psychological foundations of counterpoint, harmony, and form, and considered the affective, as opposed to solely structural or syntactic, effects of melody, chord, interval, and tone. The introduction provides a biographical sketch of Kurth, based on archival research and personal interview with his widow, son, and many of his doctoral students. Rothfarb also discusses the intellectual currents of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, both musical and nonmusical, which shaped Kurth's outlook. Eight chapters summarize the main ideas of Grundlagen des linearen Kontrapunkts and Romantische Harmonik and show the directions Kurth took in his later works, Bruckner and Musikpsychologie. A final chapter identified his influence on several of his well-known contemporaries. Ernst Kurth as Theorist and Analyst will interest music theorists, musicologists, and advanced students of music theory.
